Christmas count down

Everyone is sharing Christmas cards and/or projects for the 12 week countdown to Christmas and I thought I would add some projects as well.  How many weeks till Christmas???  About 10 weeks? Okay, so here is Christmas Countdown share number 10:
 I actually made this card a long while back over Labor Day weekend while at our cabin.  I had limited supplies that I brought up and added the ribbon and brad after we were home.  In person it is very sparkly.  I used my Versa Mark pad and rubbed it onto the raised surface of the Very Vanilla card stock - which was embossed using the Holiday Frame folder.  I then applied Heat and Stick followed by Dazzling Diamonds glitter.
Lastly, I outlined the ornament image with Dazzling Details glitter.  The Window Frames Famelits Die was paper pierced using the Festive template which you can get for FREE when you take advantage of the October special as listed on top right hand side of my blog.  A very fun and easy card to make when you have all the right tools provided by Stampin' UP!
INGREDIENTS: Ornament Keepsakes Bundle (plus FREE Festive paper piercing pack) which includes: 1) Ornament Keepsakes stamp set, 2) Holiday Ornaments Framelits and 3) Candlelight Christmas Specialty DS paper.  Early Espresso, Lucky Limeade and Very Vanilla card stock, Early Espresso and Lucky Limeade ink, Holiday Frame embossing folder, Scallop Trim Border punch, Champagne Basic Glimmer Brad, Heat and Stick powder, Dazzling Diamonds glitter, Dazzling Details glitter and paper piercing tool and mat.

See you next week with another Christmas Count Down share.  Till then, happy stamping!  Annette

Impressions a Bloom for Sunday Stamps!

 Happy Sunday!  Right now I am knee deep in making decorations for my daughter's upcoming baby shower next weekend and the theme is Winnie the Pooh! lol :)  I am going to be a grandma for the first time and all I can say is that I am really is exciting! I forced myself to clear off my stamping table (well actually just push stuff away) and created a floral card for this weeks new challenge at Sunday Stamps!  The Impressions  a Bloom Bundle is one of my newest favorite sets and I really have not had time to create with all of the very many different ways you can with this set.  Here's my 2nd go. Soft pastel colors? Count me in!  And these petals exemplify the softness you can achieve with the Impressions a Bloom .  For these flowers, I stamped 2 in Peach Pie ink followed by Timid Tiger ink. The 3rd flower was stamped using Fresh Freesia ink. I first stamped off onto scratch paper and then used full strength for the detailed/outline stamp. Next, I d...

Perfectly Pears for Sunday Stamps!

 It's Sunday and today starts another new challenge at Sunday Stamps! Yahoo!  I love card challenges because it makes you think outside the box and at the same time gives you something to create with whether it be a color challenge or a sketch challenge.   For this weeks creation, I focused on the new Online Exclusive Bundle called Perfectly Pears .  This bundle is part of a suite and the products in the suite are gorgeous.  For this particular creation, I focused on the adorable set of pears and a few of the coordinating dies. I stamped the outline set of pears image using Pecan Pie ink and then stamped the solid part of the pear image using Darling Duckling ink which also had some Timid Tiger ink sponged onto it as well. I then took my Darling Duckling and my Timid Tiger Stampin' Blends and outlined some of the edges of the pears to add more depth to each Pear. Next, I colored the leaves and stem using Old Olive, Mossy Meadow and Pecan Pie Stampin' Blends...
