Trimming the Tree

Hello, to my crafty friends. Today, I have a fun creation to share with you using the Trimming the Tree stamp set with the coordinating Tree Trimmings Dies which is part of the Perfect Partners Promotion ending Friday, September 30th.

I paired my trio of trees with the Splendid Day 12" x 12" Specialty Paper to add some festive shine and to show you how versatile the Splendid Day 12" x 12" DSP really is.

My focal tree is stamped using Soft Sea Foam and Pear Pizzazz ink, and then I reversed the order of stamped colors for the remaining two trees.
To make my card look like the trees where in a forest, I added a row of hand cut snowdrifts under my trees and a few rows of garland to my focal tree using Basic White cardstock.  I could have added more bling to my trees, but I really liked the green and white as my focal colors.
 
Next, I added a White Glimmer Paper die cut star to the top of my tree and a copper embossed sentiment to match the Splendid Day 12" x 12" Specialty DSP.
You can see how shiny and sparkly my card is with the copper embossing with the copper piece of DSP much better in the photo above.

The other item I used on my card that is absolutely a must have is the Split Card Textures Dies.  What a fun new set of dies.  If you don't have these yet, I would be asking Santa to get them for you this year. lol

      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 ...

      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!

      Lovely Arrangements Bundle

       Hello, crafty friends!  Today, I am sharing a birthday card I made for a friend using the Lovely Arrangements Bundle. These large and beautiful flowers are paired with the Lovely Blossoms 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper. The flowers were stamped using Secret Sea ink onto Basic White cardstock and were then colored with Cloud Cover Stampin' Blends. For fun, I added 1/2" punched circles to the centers of the flowers using retired Night of Navy glossy paper. The sentiment was stamped using Secrete Sea ink and was then cut down with my paper trimmer.  The flowers and sentiment were adhered to my card front using Dimensionals. For the background, I die cut 2 sets of Secrete Sea  cardstock "circle clusters" and adhered them to a rectangle die cut piece of Cloud Cover cardstock followed by 2 pieces of Lovely Blossoms DSP. Next, I added 3 sets of Old Olive die cut leaves around my flowers, a Night of Navy bakers twine bow, and a few white embellishments to finish...
