Mango Melody meets the Snowflake Showcase

Hello, crafty friends. Today, I am sharing a quick and easy Christmas card I made using the Snow is Glistening stamp set along with the Snowfall Thinlits.  Its quick and easy because I used one of the Silver Foil-Edged Cards as my card base. :)
The Snow is Glistening and Snowfall Thinlits are only available in November or while supplies last.  The snowflake images in this stamp set are just gorgeous and the matching framelits are "da bomb"!

To create my background panel, I inked up 3 different sized snowflakes using Mango Melody ink, and just for fun- spritzed them with water before stamping directly onto a 4" x 5 1/4" piece of Whisper White cardstock. Next, I added some small clusters of snowflakes (without spritzing) in some of the open areas.  The key is to not add a lot of snowflakes to your background panel in order to keep the central focus on the big beautiful Silver and Mango Melody die cut snowflake.

BTW,  did you know that there are 20 framelits in the Snowfall Thinlits set?  An amazing number with an amazing amount of possibilities for creating and layering! :0

We don't carry Mango Melody ribbon, but you can create your own matching ribbon by running a piece of white ribbon over your ink pad.  For this card, I held a piece of 3/8" Silver Metallic Edged Ribbon down over my Mango Melody ink pad using my bone folder and then "pulled it" thru the ink.  Super easy to do and the mess stays in the ink pad and bone folder tip- not your fingers. :)

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...
