Color Me Money Christmas card: FFC21

Hello!  I hope this post finds you well, and ready for the weekend. : ) Last Saturday, I drove down to Kansas to visit my sister and my niece who turned one last month.  It was so nice to see them!  My niece is so sweet, and I am so glad I made the trip. Wish we lived closer.
Ok, onto my post: Tonight, I decided to play along with the FESTIVE FRIDAY challenge blog.  The challenge is to make a Christmas card using Red, White and Aqua.  Here's what I came up with:
This is a money card holder that will fit into a regular sized legal envelope.  Some of my Christmas recipients will get the real thing: cash. : )   I took the picture just a few minutes ago, on my stamping table which really isn't set up for taking quality pictures.  Such is life. 
e
 I stamped the tree in Black Stazon ink and water colored it with my aqua painter and Pool Party ink. I then added Red Liquid Pearls to the bulbs. When it was dry,  I fussy cut it out. I also free hand cut the snow and sponged it with Pool Party.  Dazzling Diamonds glitter was added to the tree and snow. The Music Notes where wheeled onto a piece of blank white card stock using Pool Party.  To finish off the card (and for fun), I added some white sequins as snow. : )
RECIPE
STAMPS: Color Me Christmas, Music Notes wheel
INK: Black Stazon and Pool Party
PAPER: Whisper White, Pool Party and Real Red
ACCESSORIES: Aqua Painter, Dazzling Diamonds glitter, Pool Party Seam Binding Ribbon and Sequins.
 Happy Stamping!!

Quilt card

This is a quilt card I made back in January at my up line's (Chris Smith) home.  I added the embossed flower using  the Daydream Medallions stamp set along with the SAB stamp set Madison Avenue .  These two stamp sets work well together.  The flower petals were made with  the Floral Frames Framelits die.  I will probably store these two sets together. : )  Recipe: Daydream Medallions, Madison Avenue (SAB) and Vintage Verses (SAB) stamp sets; Sycamore Street DSP (SAB), Island Indigo and Tangerine Tango card stock; Island Indigo, Versa Mark pad inks; White Emb. powder, Floral Frames Framelits, Postage Stamp punch, Square Lattice Emb. Folder, Pool Party SAB button and Whisper White Bakers Twine. Enjoy your day!  I have limited time to create my youngest child's birthday card...which is tomorrow!  Happy Stamping, and hope you get to stamp a latte!

Silly Old Bear Suite

 Happy Friday! Today, I have 2 very cute creations to share with you using the Silly Old Bear Suite . One Pooh Bear is a die cut right from the Silly Old Bear 12" x 12" DSP , while the other Pooh Bear is stamped in Early Espresso ink and colored with the new Golden Glow Stampin' Blends. Every image on 2 sheets of the Silly Old Bear 12" x 12" DSP can be die cut out using the Sweet Old Friends Dies !  How cool is that?! The first card I made (on the right side) uses the new In Color Crisp Cantaloupe.  I stamped the frame from the Sweet Old Words   Stamp Set using Crisp Cantaloupe and die cut it out using the coordinating Sweet Old Words Dies followed by another Crisp Cantaloupe cardstock layer.   I also die cut 2 honey pot images from the Silly Old Bear 12" x 12" DSP and a tree stump from the Sweet Old Friends Dies.    I created a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" money holder card using a 7 1/4" x 5 1/2" piece of Crisp Cantaloupe cardstock scored ...
