A Friend Is...

Hello bloggers today's card is a simple card with a lovely friendship statement.




This card began as a white 5x7 card blank.  First I adhered the white floral paper to the front of the card.  This paper was from a box of chocolates I received for my birthday.  Next using some silver pearlescent paper I die cut a rectangle zigzag edged plaque for my sentiment using Spellbinders 'pot pourri' die set.  The mat was adhered to the card.  Next I took some red waxed paper and stamped my sentiment using Creative Expressions 'sentimental saying' stamp set and staz-on ink pad black.  I then tore the edges of the paper and adhered it to the silver mat.  Next from the same red waxed paper I die cut three hearts using the same die set as above.  The hearts were then adhered underneath the silver mat.  Finally from the red and silver papers used above I die cut a flower using Spellbinders Die D-Lites' blooms one' die set.  Once die cut they were layered up and adhered to the top right corner of the sentiment.

PotPourri Christmas Tag

Hello bloggers today I have a Christmas tag made using just one set of dies.


This tag has been made using my paper scrap box and Spellbinders PotPourri die set throughout..  First I die cut the tag shape using Spellbinders 'Potpourri' die set.  Using some snowflake patterned paper from my scrap box I also cut a second tag shape using the same die. A hole was punched in the top left corner using a hole punch.   I then adhered the paper tag to the card stock one.   Next I die cut a ribbon heart and added some red bakers twine and tied it off.  I also die cut a silver holographic and a white heart.  On the white heart I inked through the die using barn door distress ink. The two stars were die cut and layered up.    Using some tinsel like twine I adhered a strip across the tag.   Next the vellum sentiment was adhered in the top left corner.  The hearts and star were then added to the tag.   Finally some bakers twine was added to thw punched hole.

Snow Doubt its Christmas

Hello bloggers a Christmas card for you today!


This card began as a 8x8 white card blank to the front I added two different snowflake patterned papers.  At the join I added some pink ric rac ribbon.  Next I stamped my topper using tumbled glass distress ink and Stamping with Dimension 'snowman' stamp set.  I then coloured part of the stamped image with ProMarkers.  This was then die cut using Spellbinders 'labels 17' die set.  I then inked the edges with tumbled glass distress ink.  Next I die cut a mat from silver mirror board using Spellbinders 'grand scallop ovals' die set.  I adhered the mat and topper to the card and added some chipboard snowflake elements to decorate the silver mat.  Using some purple Christmas paper I die cut two stars using Spellbinders 'potpourri' die set.  Whilst still in the die I inked through with dusty concord distress ink.  The stars were then layered up on the corner of the topper.  Next I stamped the sentiment using the same stamp set and dusty concord distress ink.  It was then die cut using Spellbinders ' back to basic tags' die set.  The tag was adhered to the card and I added two chipboard snowmen over the tag holes.  Finally I computer generated December 25th and printed it out. It was cut using a circle punch and inked the edges with a ProMarker.
