AESTAMPS A LATTE

 Hello, crafty friends. Thank you so much for those of you who placed an order during my Cyber Monday Sale. :)  Today, I have a golden Christmas card to share with you. I have to say that the Perched in a Tree Bundle has turned out to be one of my top favorite bundles from the June - December 2022 Mini Catalog and was one of the first sets on my wish list. I paired my Gray Granite and Petal Pink colored bird with a Petal Pink and gold embossed piece of  Texture Chic 12" x 12" Specialty DSP.    I am in love with how the Aspen Tree background die just pops against my Basic White layer behind it. And of course, the Gold Foil die cut leaves with the texture make it yummy.  Luckily the Perched in a Tree Bundle is not officially retiring. The Perched in a Tree stamp set and Aspen Tree Dies will carry over but you will not be able to save 10% as a bundle. Get Ready for a refresh of the Clearance Rack  Starting December 1, 2022!

 Hello, crafty friends. I hope that you had a wonderful Thanksgiving celebration with family and friends. I was blessed to have my children home and the weather was beautiful.  Today starts a new challenge at Sunday Stamps! and here's a Christmas creation I made using the Merriest Moments stamp set and the coordinating Merriest Frames Hybrid Embossing Folder.   This is another fun hybrid set that you can emboss and die cut differently to achieve different looks.

Hello, crafty friends. I hope you having an enjoyable weekend. Today, I am sharing another creation I made using the Ringed with Nature Bundle.  This is a CASE of the mushroom card I made for the new Sunday Stamps! challenge HERE only this time I focused on a Christmas creation.  I love that you can create a whole new creation yet use the same design. I love to create, but replicating a card exactly the same is not my favorite thing to do. I usually end up changing something...just to see how it looks.  :)  For this card,  I stamped the poinsettia and leaves using Real Red and Evening Evergreen inks onto a piece of Basic White cardstock. I then embossed the flower center using Versamark and Silver Embossing Powder.  To create the tree rings,  I then embossed my stamped piece using the Tree Rings 3D Hybrid Embossing Folder. Next, I sponged some Smoky Slate ink around the edges before adhering it to the larger outer Early Espresso tree trunk layer made a...
