Lovely As A Tree - two ways.

Hello Everyone

I thought I would share a couple of Christmas cards today. I know if you are making a big stack of Christmas cards, you need to keep it simple. So here is a quick and easy one for you!

The image is from Lovely as a Tree and the greeting from Teeny Tiny Wishes. The card is Gumball Green and the layer is in Raspberry Ripple.

I finished with a bit of Dazzling Details to add some bling.

Now for a stepped up version - here I layered up Lucky Limeade and Early Espresso and Whisper White. I stamped the same tree image using Garden Green and then put all three layers through the Big Shot with the Holiday Frame Embossing Folder.

I then stamped the top of the tree again and punched out with the XL Oval Punch. I added baubles in real red ink on the popped up portion.

Which one do you prefer?

Core'dinations Tree

Hello Everyone

In an earlier post, I showed you the stunning Holiday Frame Embossing Folder used with the Core'dinations card stock and here is another card made using the same products. I love how just gently sanding the frame shows the pale colour though and gives a very vintage feel to this Christmas card.

I felt I had to bling it up with pearls, Tulle ribbon and Seam Binding ribbon - both in Crumb Cake.

Recently I got another embossing folder from the Autumn/Winter catalogue - this time the Woodgrain one - well I had to have a play at once...so I created a tree!

I used Scallop Circle punches and the largest of the Boho Blossoms in various greens and daubed the edges with Always Artichoke ink. The flowers are made using the Itty Bitty Punches.

I love how this card came out - it's like a childhood drawing!

3D Bauble Card

Hello Everyone

With two new catalogues in two months, I hardly know where to turn for projects to show you - I am overwhelmed with loveliness! LOL

So today I am showing a project made with the Ornament Keepsake Bundle from the Autumn/Winter Seasonal catalogue. Now in both our new catalogues, you will find bundles. These are products designed to go together - in this case stamps and framelit dies. By buying both together you can get a saving of between 10-15% - how good is that?

 

 

Now you have already seen the Holiday Frame Embossing Folder used with the Core'dinations cardstock a few posts ago...but on this project you can see how wonderful it looks in white.

 

The greeting comes from Mixed Medley - a really versatile Hostess stamp set in the Autumn/Winter catalogue. Love it? Why not book a workshop with your demonstrator and it could be yours!

 

Hope you like today's project.
