Warm Winter Wishes

Hi everyone, Steph Ackerman here today and I'm happy to be working with these lovely stamps  from Paper Wings Productions.

The card was created from white cardstock and a layer of snowy paper and navy cardstock was added on top.  Since we recently were pounded with 30" of snow, this card was quite appropriate!

The mittens are from the Winter Wood Cuts Cling stamp set.  I stamped, fussy cut, and colored the mittens with Smooch Accent Inks.  The words are part of the Say it-Winter Greetings Clear Stamp set.  They were individually stamped and then cut into pennant shapes to fit across the card.  Black cardstock under the pennants really helped them stand out.

 

The mittens were added to the card with foam adhesives for dimension. 

 

Thanks for stopping by today.

love you

Hi everyone! Ashley here sharing a Valentine's day card that I made using the Wild Card cartridge with my Cricut.

I used three different stamps sets from Paper Wings Productions that you initially may not consider for a Valentine's day project. The stamp sets I chose are Say It Winter Greetings, Fall Mix It Up, and Text Melange.

I used the Crate Paper Hello, Love patterned papers which are perfect for this project. For the front of the card, I used one of the script stamps inked with a light grey. Because I wanted it to be very subtle, I stamped on a scrap paper first, did not re-ink the stamp, and then stamped a second time on my card. You can see a side by side comparison below:

The Fall Mix It Up stamp set had the 'happy' and 'together' stamps that I used for the front of the card. For the inside of the card, I used 'love' from Say It Winter Greetings and 'you' from Fall Mix It Up stamp set. Mixing words and phrases in your stamp sets is a great way to get more use out of them!

The card fits perfectly in the corresponding envelope and I used the same ink color to stamp 'happy' and the heart stamp from the Say It Winter Greetings stamp set onto the envelope.

What phrases can you put together with your stamp sets?

Happy New Year Mittens

Hi everyone, Steph Ackerman here today and I'm happy to be working with these lovely stamps  from Paper Wings Productions.  It's hard to believe we are 12 days into the New Year already!  Where on earth is the time going?

Happy New Year wishes still abound and I've used Winter Wood Cuts cling stamp set and Say It Winter Greetings stamp set.

The card was created using Spellbinders dies.  I colored the mittens with Smooch Accent Inks, then I "hung" the mittens from some twine across the card. 

 

Happy New Year was stamped in the corner.

 

And a close up of the mittens and sentiment.

 

Thanks for stopping by.

Happy New Year shaker card

Hello! It's Ashley with my last card this year! This one is a shaker card wishing you a happy New Year!

I made my card base with gold embossing powder, a stencil, and embossing paste. Next I made my shaker - I use old page protectors and my Fuse tool. I threw in a bunch of sequins and the Happy New Year confetti I made.

I used the Say It Winter Greeting stamp set to stamp 'happy new year' and then I cut the words apart to make confetti. I added those into the pocket with my sequins and sealed it up with my Fuse.

Here's a close up of the shaker:

Shaker cards are fun because you can make them any size or shape and you can throw in just about anything! I recently made a Christmas one you can check out HERE.

A Coffee Christmas

Hello friends. Larissa here today with a little different spin on a Christmas card. I used the stamp set Play with your Coffee.

I stamped the the cups on top of each other and colored them using my Copic markers. 

I used: G02, YG09, G07, G28, R24, R27, R29, R46, E55, E23. 

I stamped the Merry Christmas sentiment from the set Say It Winter Greetings . 

To finish off the card front I added a few red and green sequins. 

I hope you enjoyed my post today. 

Have a wonderful day and rest of your week.

wishing you merry Christmas shaker card

Hi, it's Ashley here today and I'm sharing a Christmas shaker card that I think is super cute! To start, I used a polka dot stencil and distress inks for my card base. Next, I used a circle die to cut out the center of my card.

Then I started working on my sentiment for the inside of the card. I used the Fall Mix It Up stamp set to stamp 'wishing you' and Say It Winter Greetings stamp set for 'merry Christmas.' I heat embossed 'merry' with green embossing powder and I love the font for 'Christmas.'

My final step was to finish the shaker card. Using the Fuse tool makes shaker cards super easy! I added some sequins, a little resin piece, and then I stamped an ornament and some stars from the Winter Wood Cuts stamp set, fussy cut those, and threw them in there too. Here's my finished card:

Thanks for looking! :)

Merry Christmas

Hello friends. Larissa back with you today. I used a few different stamp sets for this card. Being from San Antonio I thought this was a perfect card for me to send to some of my out of state friends.

I used:
Say it Winter Greetings Clear Stamp Set 

San Antonio Clear Stamp Set 

Holiday Ad Ons

Build A Scene Clear Stamp

I stamped the image of the Alamo on the card first and masked it off. I then stamped the San Antonio skyline stamp behind it both of these stamps are from the San Antonio set.  I left the mask on the Alamo and Stamped the two trees from the Build A Scene set. To finish off the trees I took the small light set from Holiday Ad Ons and stamped them across each one. I colored the images using Copic markers.

The greeting is two different sets as well. The Merry Christmas is from the Say it Winder Greetings set and then the "From the Alamo City" came from the San Antonio set. It actually says greetings from the Alamo city. I just cut off the word "greetings".

To finish off the card from I added a few red sequins and matted it on a piece of red cardstock and then adhered it to a white card base, 

I have already stamped a few more of these card fronts to get in the mail. This is a perfect "from San Antonio" card.


Thank you for stopping my today. Don't forget to check back to see what the amazing design team girls create for you.


Have a wonderful day friends.

warm winter wishes

We had our first snow of the season in Indiana this weekend and it put me in the mood to bundle up the penguin in the Winter Wonderland stamp set:

I wanted to use the penguin from the Winter Wonderland stamp set and I wanted to bundle him up with a hat and a scarf. I stamped my penguin and the hat and fussy cut them both. Then I stamped the image of the wolf wearing the scarf and fussy cut the scarf.

I colored the hat and scarf with Copic markers and attached them to my penguin. Then I attached the penguin to my card. I stamped the sentiment using the Say It Winter Greetings stamp set.

For a little bling, I added snowflakes using the Sparkle red rubber cling stamp set. I heat embossed them with silver embossing powder.

Here's my finished card:

Thanks so much for looking! Hoping you're staying warm this winter :) For more details, check out my blog today, Markland and Main.

Peace Love Joy

Hello friends. Larissa here today with a Christmas card for you. 

I am using two different sets on my card today. First the sentiment set is

Say it Winter Greetings

and

The Nativity Stamp Set 

So I stamped the images on a piece of white cardstock and colored them with Copic markers. I took my glitter pen and colored in a few places but you can't really see it in the picture.
I cut each image out with a pair of detailed scissors.

I took a piece of watercolor paper and made my background using different yellow and orange watercolors. 

I adhered the images onto the front of the watercolor paper using liquid adhesive and then used foam tape on the back of the angel.

I stamped the sentiments onto the watercolor paper using Versafine Onyx Black ink. 

I hoped you enjoyed my card today.
Have a wonderful week friends. 

Warm Winter Wishes

Hello friends. Larissa here with a warm winter wishes card for you today.  I am actually using 3 different stamp sets for this card.
I stamped the cups "Playing with your coffee" on a piece of kraft cardstock and colored them using Spectrum Noir markers.
I then stamped each cup with a different stamped image from the "Holiday Add Ons" set.

For the sentiment I used the stamp set "Say it Winter Greetings" and heat embossed it with white embossing powder. 

For the inside of the card I added another cup also colored with Spectrum Noir markers and left it blank to be able to write a note if I wanted. 

I hope you enjoyed my card today. Have a wonderful day friends.
