Peaceful Cabin

I cased this card because I loved it.  I don't remember who made it originally but I found it on Pinterest.  The card is Misty Moonlight with a Basic Whit Layer.  I stamped the images on Pacific Point.  I used a gel pen to outline the snow on the cabin and trees.  I punched a 1 1/4" circle to make a mask and used Whisper White ink to make the moon.  It looks light the moonlight is bright on the snow.  I sponed the edges of the card in Memento Black. Thanks for looking.  

Poinsettia Card

This was one of my club cards this month.  I am trying to do a Fall card and a Christmas card in my clubs.  Everyone loved this card.  The card base is Real Red and the designer paper is from Heartwarming Hugs.  Don't you just love that designer paper.  Every sheet is fabulous (153492).  The Poinsettia is embossed in gold and the verse is also.   I used Detailed Bands Dies , gold foil and Champagne Rhinestones.  I hope you like my card.  Thanks for stopping by.

Heartwarming Hugs

I used the paper Pumpkin , August 8/20 cards.  I made a wreath using the vellum leaves. I stamped the cups in Bumble Bee using the Warm Hugs set.  I absolutely love the verse.  Warm Hugs is such a versatile set. I'm in love with it. 

Evergreen Forest Embossing Folder card

This is a very simple Christmas card  You can use any foil paper.  i used the Noble Peacock Foil (retired) but gold, silver or copper would be very pretty too. I used the new Evergreen Forest Embossing Folder (153576 $10) and a tag.  I also used the Snowflake Splendor ribbon (153548 $7).  I layered the foil on a matching card stock and then on a white thick cardstock.  So simple but absolutely beautiful.  Maybe you have some Noble Peacock foil hanging around that needs to be used.  Try it.  The sentiment is from the Dove of Hope on page 13 of the Holiday catalog (153406 $22).  I also used some rhinestones to embellish.

Debbie's Easter Card

My friend and team mate in Stampin Up! sent me an Easter card.  It is folded so that it fits in a regular envelope and then expands so it can sit on a table or by your computer for your enjoyment.  She used Pressed Petals Designer Series Paper (DSP) (149500) and Full of Happiness (151539) stamp set.  She used part of the pineapple die from In the Tropics dies (151495).  

The cardstock is 8 X 5 1/4  scored at 1 1/4, 2 1/2, 5 1/2 and 6 3/4".  The bottom bar is  1 3/4 X  5 1/2".  The egg half and the chick is fussy cut.  She used 4 pieces of Crumb Cake cardstock each cut 1 X 4" each and one cut 2 3/4 X 4 then layered the DSP cut to size 3/4 X 4" for sides (4) and one cut 2 5/8 X 3 3/4".  On the bar at the bottom she layered a Crumb Cake piece 1 1/2 X 5 1/4" and put it through the Big Shot using the Basket Weave embossing folder  (151797).  The tag is  5/8" X 4".  This is a fabulous card and I thank Debbie for sending it to me.  

On Stage Presentation with Stampin' Up!

  

Here are the cards I presented at On Stage Stampin' Up! in Atlanta.  This is a new set coming out in the Occasions Mini Catalog in January.  You are going to love the Occasions catalog this year.

Tis the Season

This year we have a great selection of plaid DSP.  Plaid makes a great Christmas card.  On this card I used Wrapped in Plaid DSP (149596) on a Crumb Cake base. The words are from the Jolly Season Dies (150648) in copper foil. Copper is really big this year.  I punched the trees using the Pine Tree Punch (149521).  I adorned the trees with Star Designer Elements (150430).  The ribbon is retire but you can use any red ribbon for this quick and easy card.  We need quick & Easy for our Christmas cards.  I hope you like my cards.  Come back when you can.  

Christmas Gleaming

Have you ever seen such beautiful Designer Paper that is Stampin' Up! in any other place?  They are all gorgeous all the time.  This DSP is from Brightly Gleaming (150429).There are so many beautiful colors in the package including copper foil.   In this card, I have punched 3 ornaments with the Gleaming Ornaments Punch Pack (150647) out of the DSP and hung them on the bough from Shine Bright stamps (150719).  The background is also from this package.   The copper ornament was embossed with the Swirl and Curls embossing folder (147923).  The ornaments are hung with copper thread.  The ribbon is 1/2" Classic Weave Ribbon (150934).  It has Merry Christmas in 2 different fonts in copper.  There is a scrap of Vellum behind the ornaments.  The card base is Pretty Peacock ( a new In-Color this year).  I will have more cards later this week.  Thanks for stopping by.
