Serene Snowflakes

I created this card for the Create with Connie & Mary Challenge. I really love stamping snowflakes in non-traditional colors. The challenge was to use Wild Wasabi, Cherry Cobbler and Real Red.

I used the stamp set Serene Snowflakes. I also used the Tasteful Trim die, and added some Basic Pearls for texture. I really love Stampin' Up!'s Cherry Cobbler Seam Binding, and added a little Very Vanilla taffeta (retired). I used this taffeta before I realized it was retired, in place of that you could use either Very Vanilla 1/8" Taffeta, Very Vanilla 1/4" Grosgrain, Very Vanilla Designer Velvet Ribbon, Very Vanilla 5/8 Satin Ribbon, or 5/8" Victoria Crochet Trim.

The patterned paper is from the Holly Berry Boquet Specialty Designer Series Paper. What's fun about this DSP is that it has some patterns that are GLITTERED!!! So pretty!

I hope you enjoyed my card, as much as I enjoyed creating it!

Thanks for visiting, see you soon!

Babies, Babies, Babies!

Since my best friend and I are both pregnant with our first children, I thought I'd take the Create with Connie & Mary challenge, and create a baby card with it!

I love the color combo! I don't know yet what I am having, and neither does my friend, but I would love to give this card to someone. It's just so cute!!

The stamp sets used are the In Stitches wheel, Friendly Phrases, and Fox & Friends. I love how the stitching adds such a fun element to this baby card!!

Thanks for coming by!

FTL160 Stitched Stockings

I am really loving the items I decided to purchase from the Holiday Mini Catalog. Such as, Stitched Stockings! It's such a super cute stamp set! Very simple, but makes some really fun cards and gift tags!

I am also enjoying the Letters to Santa Designer Series Paper. The colors in the paper are so fun to play with!
The card base is Blushing Bride, I layered with Early Espresso. For some interest on the white layer that the stockings are on, I stamped with the cute Simple Snowflake Stamp. I also used a length of Old Olive 5/8" Satin Ribbon. I love the texture that the satin ribbon gives a card. It's very versatile! The sentiment is from the stamp set, Four the Holidays, and that is layered on Marina Mist cardstock.

Thank you for coming by and taking a look at my latest card!

Comfort & Joy

I love this set from the Holiday Mini, called Comfort & Joy. I love Christmas carols, and this set automatically puts Christmas songs in my head!

I created this card for MOJO209 sketch challenge, and for PP66 theme challenge. The card base is River Rock, layered with Bravo Burgundy and Wild Wasabi. I used the Snowflake Punch, the Basic Pearls Jewel Accents, and Dazzling Details.

I enjoyed making this card, I hope you enjoyed looking at it!

Thanks for stopping by!

French Foliage

These colors are so fun. I got them from the Create with Connie & Mary blog.

I love how you can use these colors for fall, or they'd be a fun alternative for Christmas!

I used the French Foliage set for this card.

The card base is Soft Suede, the green layer is Pear Pizzazz, I used the gorgeous Spice Cake Designer Series Paper, and the Spice Cake Designer Buttons. I tied a bit of Soft Suede 3/8" Taffeta Ribbon in the button. I don't like using naked buttons!

I hope you enjoyed this card. It was fun to try out these colors!

See you soon!

PPA113 Beautiful Season

I created this card for PPA113. I decided I LOVE this card so much, it is going to be my 2011 Christmas card!

I really love the simplicity of the clear embossed bird image, and the turned sentiment. The jingle bell is a fun addition.

This stamp set is called Beautiful Season. The bird image was embossed with Clear Stampin' Emboss Powder, using the Heat Tool. 

I used the Cherry Cobbler 3/8 Quilted Satin Ribbon from the Holiday Mini. I tied the Mini Jingle Bell to the ribbon with Linen Thread. I like the added strip of Early Espresso cardstock, just to add a bit of contrast to the Crumb Cake Cardstock. 

I embossed the Cherry Cobbler cardstock with the new Snow Burst Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, using my Big Shot. After it was embossed, I used a Sponge Dauber, and dabbed on a bit of Frost White Shimmer Paint, for some added glitz and sparkle. I really love that stuff, it's fun to use instead of an ink pad on stamped images!

I hope you enjoyed this card. I loved making it!

Thanks for visiting!

Wicked Cool!

This fun card was created for a Challenge on Create with Connie & Mary for their Holiday Edition.

I used the Wicked Cool stamp set for this card. It's so cute, I just love it! I also used the new Designer Series Paper called Frightful Sight. The cardstock colors I chose are: Old Olive, Cherry Cobbler, Basic Gray, Basic Black and Whisper White. I embossed the front of the card with the Spider Web Textured Impressions Embossing Folder with my Big Shot. I added a Rhinestone to the candelabra for some cute bling.

I hope you enjoyed this card! Much more to come!

Thanks,
Heather

Merry & Type

I love this new set from Stampin' Up! called Merry & Type. It's so fun, yet so old fashioned looking!
I created this card using the Letters to Santa Designer Series Paper. It's got really cute prints included in the package.

Don't you love the colors in this card? I really like how the Designer Series Paper starts with traditional Christmas colors, and adds a twist with some non-traditional additions.

I used the Glimmer Brads, to match some of the colors in the DSP. I also used the Early Espresso 3/8" Quilted Satin Ribbon from the new Holiday Mini, and the Postage Stamp Punch. I backed the postage stamp punch with the 1 1/4" square punch, and backed that with the 1 3/8" square punch. Cardstock colors were Whisper White, Marina Mist, Textured Old Olive, and Early Espresso. I used the Stampin' Write Markers to color the ornaments different colors on the main image.

Visit My Website to order these an many other wonderful items. (I used the sketch from MOJO208 for this cute card!!)

Thanks for visiting! See you again soon.

Love you Much!

This set is so stinking cute! It's called Love You Much. The images are really sweet!

The sentiment I stamped in Early Espresso is from a set called Grateful Greetings. It's a great set to own because you have sentiments and verses for Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and Valentine's Day. If you are looking for a set that works for multiple Holiday's, this would be one of them for sure!

I used Real Red cardstock, Early Espresso cardstock, Whisper White cardstock, Brights DSP Patterns Pack, Bitty Buttons, Real Red Grosgrain ribbon and Linen Thread tied in the holes of the button.

I stamped the Love you much image in Early Espresso...the Valentine Greetings sentiment was also stamped in the same color. I took my Real Red and Tempting Turquoise inkpads, smooshed (yes, that is a technical term!) the top and bottom together to transfer the ink to the lid of the inkpad, picked up color with my Blender Pen, and colored the LOVE image. I tore the bottom of the whisper white for some textured then glued everything down with our Snail Adhesive.

If there is ever anything that you want me to show a tutorial on, let me know. I'm more than happy to show you anything I can.

Thanks for visiting me!
