DIY Holiday Cards

This is a tutorial to make something like this. This was done free-hand. I learned how to this from the 'glitter lady' at a demo night that ...

Предлагаю на обмен тиснение на плотной акварельной бумаге, цветной плотной бумаге для пастели, на картоне. Качество потрясающее! Есть трафареты для тиснения: Это такие марочки тисненные - для открыток или скрап-страниц, размер около 5х5 см, остальные трафареты А2 (что-то около 10х15) Последние трафареты - тиснение бордюра (например, нижний или боковой край будущей открытки или подложки под фото) Примеры использования (НЕ мои работы, к сожалению :), взято с просторов интернета для примера)…

How happy is this snowman (or woman)? Can you see the shading behind the snowman? I took the ink pad and swiped it across the folder to give the background increased depth. And, isn't it wonderful when snow sparkles (maybe why he's so happy). At the top of the hill, I applied Dazzling Diamonds to give that extra shimmery detail. Corner punch on the right and sponge the edges for a completed look: Have a wonderful season! If you have a comment, please feel free to leave one. I appreciate them…

Voor de leden van mijn team organiseerde ik onlangs een kaartenswap met producten uit de nieuwste herfst/winter catalogus van Stampin' Up! Iedereen die zin had kon meedoen. Geen tijd of zin?

Iedereen had SUper hun beste gedaan wat resulteerde in prachtige kaarten! Hieronder eerst mijn swap en daaronder die van de…

Embossed Card

Happy Wednesday! I hope you're all having as much fun as I am today! While I would normally be cooped up all warm and cozy on a cold blustery day like today crafting my little heart out, today was a special day. It's was annual "Special Day Out" with Alicia. Yes, starting last year I decided that no one should have to go to school on their birthday. Heaven knows we don't get a "day pass" on our birthday in the "real world" so when it's the girls' birthday I let them play hookie. Now…

I am still playing around with different ways to make this fun little scene.. Using a nestabilities oval die to cut the oval in the center of my paper then ran it through the cuttlebug embossing folder. I used mounting tape to 3D the top panel, added a punched deer and cut out the largest tree and placed out of the circle for depth. my inspiration today are[url=www.studionommo.com/product.asp?id=191][color=blue]these multi blue colors[/color][/url] I used night of navy marker for the edges…

Cultivating Inspiration & Creativity

Good Morning Everyone! This year it seems like everyone is using forests and deer in creating beautiful scenes for Christmas. I did create a tag with birch trees and deer and you can see it HERE. This time I used tiny cardinals and Dee's snow covered tree die to create the following scene: I have to say, I really like the way it turned out and am truly enjoying creating these scenes. It is so relaxing to play with the pieces and watch the scene develop. And don't forget to decorate the…
