Look What I Did !! A White Christmas

I saw this card on Pintest and fell in love with it. You can find it on  Laura's blog . She cased from Vicki I think, and she cased it from  someone else. So this card has been around and everyone gives it thier own touch.

Here is my version of this card.

I changed it up a bit, by using labels from Stampin Ups Label Collection. I also used two different shades of green on the Poinsettias leaves. This card isn't difficult as it is time consuming, it has allot of layers. Even with that I had allot of fun making this card and have a few more ideas on what to do next.

Supplies used:
Card Stock                                     Whisper White
Die Cuts                                         Labels Collection
Embossing Folders                        Perfect polka Dots, Vintage Wallpaper
Punch                                             1 1/4" circle, blossom Petals Builder
Ribbon                                           Cherry Cobbler Seam Binding
Stamp Set                                       Chock Full of Cheer
Marker                                           So Saffron
Accessories                                   Multipurpose Adhesive, Basic Pearls, Rhinestones

VC Rock Blog Hop for August

This is the last blog hop until next year and we are all sad to see VC Rocks close. I have had allot fun, met new members, and party hardy in our hotels. There were some awesome pool boys this including my own. Way to go girls!
Thanks to everyone behind the scenes and our lovely host Loni. Our challenge was too use our Big Shot, Punches, and Simply scored.  So many tools, so many ideas and way too much Fun!

Here the inside;  I just love the Dazzling Details it adds a little Bling to the inside of the card.

As soon as I saw the Holiday Frame in the new Stampin Up Holiday Catalog, I just new it would

be one of  my first Christmas cards. When I saw this card on Stampin Connection, posted by  Joanne Travis, I just knew I would case it, her card is awesome. Making this card was so easy, just run your paper of choice through the Big Shot using the Holiday Frames. Then I chose what ornament from Ornament Keepsakes stamp set and stamped it on Whisper White card stock. Then I picked out the framelit that matched from the Holiday Ornaments and ran it through the Big Shot and done. A little silver glimmer paper and Basic Pearls for some fantastic Bling!

When I finished it reminded of some of the Vintage ones I hang on my tree every year.

Supplies:  

Card stock                  Whisper White, Tempting Turquoise and Midnight Muse (from the Holiday

                                  Catalog)

Stampin Ink               Tempting Turquoise

Stamp Set                  Ornament Keepsakes

Punch                        Scallop Trim

Framelits                   Holiday Ornament

Embossing Folder     Holiday Frame

Strips of Silver Glimmer card stock and allot of  Basic Pearls give this card some Bling.

Summer Afternoon

I was looking through some of the goodies that my sister and I got from last week order and decided to play yesterday. I just loved the Summer Afternoon stamp set in the new catty. I have seen so many great cards using it and decided to try my own. Since I am an artist, I went with doing this in water color effect. I hope everyone enjoys what I came up with

Supplies:
Card Stock:                      Soft Suede, Crumb Cake, Cajun Craze, Lucky Limeade and water color
Stampin Inks:                   Soft Suede, Lucky Limeade, Old Olive, Cherry Cobbler, Marina Mist, Baja
                                         Breeze and So Saffron
Die Cuts:                         Labels Collection Framelits
Punch:                             Eyelet Border
Designer Paper:              Well Worn
Ribbon:                           Chantilly Lace and Pear Pizazz seam binding(retired) under the lace

I also used the color spritzer tool and Soft Suede marker to give the Soft Suede background a splatter effect. I also sponged the edges. Over all it helped in giving my card a Vintage look which is what I was going after.

I am sorry the photo came out a little darker than I wanted, it must have been the lightening that day I took several and they all were the same. Please feel free to leave comments, I love hearing what everyone thinks.

July VC Rock Blog Hop

Welcome to VC Rock's 3rd Blog Hop. I hope everyone is staying cool and having fun. It has been well over 100 here in Nevada (114 to116), Whew that's hot! I understand that it is hot everywhere this summer. What's up with that?

This month's theme is to create Hostess Gifts or a non-card item.  I know you came from Brenda Hugars (aka little sis) blog here  wasn't Brenda's creations gorgeous. She is very talented, and I learn so much from her.  If you get lost along the way and or would like to start at the beginning, please go to VC Rocks Blog here.

It did take me awhile to decide what to come up with this month for the blog hop. I decide to jump start the season with my first Christmas project. Since my sister and I are getting our first order from the Holiday mini, what a great time to play!!!  I have a passion for tins and magnets so I have re-created a gift that I saw on Carla Brasher blog here a few years ago.

So let's get started:

Supplies needed to do this project:
Card stock:                        Gumball Green, Cherry Cobbler, Very Vanilla and Glimmer Paper(Silver)
Dsp:                                   Be of Good Cheer (from the 2012-2013 Catty)
Punches:                            23/8"  Scallop circle, 13/8" circle, 13/4" circle, 1" circle, 3/4"                 
                                          and large eyelet
Ribbon:                             Gumball Green Satin Stitched
Stamp Set:                         Delightful Decorations(retired)
Stamp Pad:                        Cherry Cobbler
Accessories:                      Bottle Caps, magnets, tin, Crystal Effects, snail adhesive and for
                                          Bling  SU Rhinestones!!

This is not a hard project, but it has several parts and it takes time to assemble some of the parts. I have made several of these for family and friends. This is my first Christmas one. Who knows if you are nice Santa may send you one. Sorry couldn't resist.  Now for curious minds that want to know more on how to make this lovely gift, if you look up under the tutorial tag, you will find step by step directions.

If you don't like the tag on top you can add a tag like this one; and tie it to the ribbon.

I hope you enjoyed my projects today. If you have additional questions, please do not hesitate to leave me a message and I will get back to you ASAP. Enjoy the rest of our weekend and our Hostess Gifts or Non-card items Blog Hop.

Your next stop on the hop will be to visit the very talented Nancy Keithly at her blog here.  I know she will have something wonderful for you.
