Heart of Christmas - Week 15

 

Well here we are again, Hello Everyone, Week 15 and now only 4 more Wednesdays before Christmas Scary Ah?

 I hope you have all finished your Christmas Shopping (Yes I have) and I have also sent all my parcels off around the world. So the only Christmas cards left to make are for my work mates. So this week I have made a really simple card, but I think it's very effective I love the way the tufted Embossing folder look on the Gold Foil Sheet.

So using up the last of the Joyous Noel DSP (which I love so much) I started with a gray granite Card base and added the Gold Foil Sheet and DSP at a 1/3 to 2/3 ratio and added the Merry Merlot & Copper Ribbon down the length to hide the join. I stamped the Christmas wishes from the Peaceful Poinsettia Stamp Set using Merry Merlot Ink and then mounted this onto another gold circle and attached this to the front of the card using Dimensionals.

Using the same stamp set I stamped the insert on Whisper White card and used Merry Merlot and Tranquil Tide ink.  All the items used for the project can be found in the 2018 - 2019 Annual Catalogue and the 2018 Holiday Catalogue.

Heart of Christmas - Week 8

 

Hi Everyone, Here we are at week 8 of the Heart of Christmas Blog Hop, and with less than 3 months until the day we will have to get cracking to get all these Christmas Cards made and ready for mailing.

This week I have used the New "Peaceful Poinsettia" Stamp set on page 22 of the Holiday Catalogue.

I started with a Real Red card bade and used whisper white on one and Very Vanilla of the other card at the top before stamping the lovely poinsettia flower. I coloured the flowers using the blender pens.
I used the Joyous Noel DSP on the bottom of the card and the velvet Tranquil Tide Ribbon. I mounted my sentiment onto copper glimmer paper using Oval layering dies.

I stamped my inserts and added them to the inside of the cards. Such a lovely set I can see myself using this set for many years.

Heart of Christmas - Week 7

 

Hi All, here we are at week 7 of the Heart of Christmas Blog-Hop. My project this week is more of a classic look card. Simple in design but I think you will like it.

 

I started with a Real Red card base and added a Whisper white layer that I run through my Big Shot using the Cable Knit Embossing folder. I then added 3 banners in different lengths that I had flagged the end using the Triple Banner Punch. I stamped my Noel and Holly Leaves using the "Peaceful Poinsettia" Bundle and coloured in the holly before die cutting them out using the matching dies and stitched ovals and layering ovals. I then punched out a couple of sprig using the Sprig Punch in Glimmer paper. I mounted my sentiment on Dimensionals and placed the sprigs behind on the left-hand side and the holly leaves on the right.

I then added an insert in Whisper white and stamped the pine leaves and sentiment in real red and tranquil tide ink.

 All the items used for this project can be found in the current 2018 -2019 Annual Catalogue and 2018 Holiday Catalogue. If you would like to purchase the products used in the project please give me  a call so that I can help you with your order.
