IT'S A BLUE CHRISTMAS

I saw within the last year a beautiful card on pinterest that Amy Sheffer from http://pickledpaperdesigns.blogspot.com/ had posted and you guessed I cased it.!  I love non traditional cards, they are so Vintage!!!  I love Christmas and everything that goes with it.

Here is Amy version: Isn't is just gorgeous? Thanks Amy.

Now here is my version:

I changed a few things to make it work for me. My biggest problem has been the ribbon. I just couldn't find what I wanted. So I chose to put nothing. What do you think?  The  more I look at the card the more I think it needs something.  Don't be surprised if I change it again and re-post.

Supplies used:
Framelits                              Labels Collection, Itty Bitty Banner and Holiday Ornament
Punch                                    Scallop Edge Border
Embossing Folder                 Houndstooth Folder
Stamp Set                              Joyous Celebration
Card Stock                            Whisper White, Crumb Cake and Pacific Point
Stamping Ink                          Pacific Point
Stamping Marker                   Pacific Point, Crumb Cake

I also used Designer Series Paper, Simply scored for the design on the labels, Spritzer Tool, All Purpose Ink(Champagne Mist) and of course lots of Pearls!!! I colored them with the Pacific Point Marker, and left one Big one in the middle of the Snowflake. Oh for curious minds the top of the Christmas bulb has a small piece of SU Twine that I painted on top of it to make them match.

I hope you have enjoyed you time here today, please leave me a comment, I so do enjoy reading them.

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

 Thanks for stopping by. I love your comments, so be sure to leave one.

Christmas in August!

Just kidding, but here is another version of using the Ornament Keepsake stamp set, Christmas DSP and Holiday Ornaments Framelits.  I love this combination, how about you?  Again, I cased my card for one I saw on Stampin Connection. So sorry, didn't find a name. I just love the Richness of Cherry Cobbler, the DSP and Stamp Sets give the cards this year.

Here is my 3rd Christmas card and many more to come.

Here is the inside:

I just loved mixing all the different textures and layers.


Supplies:
Card Stock                       Cherry Cobbler, Whisper White and Silver Sparkle
Designer Paper                Good Cheer
Stamping Ink                    Cherry Cobbler
Stamp Sets                       Ornament Keepsakes and Chockful of Cheer
Framelits                         Holiday Ornament and Label Collection
Ribbon                            Cherry Cobbler seam binding

For the inside I used Dazzling Details for the Candy Cane and small ornaments, for the front I added lots of Basic Pearls, they give a little added Bling!!!

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!

I know you came from Shirley Northey at http://stampershirley.blogspot.com/ isn't her creations gorgeous.  If you get lost along the way and or would like to start at the beginning go to to VC Rocks Blog at here.

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.
