Christmas Spirit

Soon I will be done with all the Christmas Cards that I made a while ago. Most of them are so pretty, I really wanted to post them. Or they would be lost for ever in my computer somewhere until next year.
I just love the whimsical trees in this card. And really like the red and blue.
Stamps are Great Impressions. Colored with tombow markers and used a gold pen for the trimmings on the tree.

Thank You for stopping by and visiting my blog.
Have a great week...

Holiday Cheer

Another Christmas Card from 2010.

I liked this Designer Paper, so I thought this should make a nice card with the holiday cup and cheer sentiment.

With the green scallop circle the cup lined up really nice and coloring the cup was so easy.

A little bit of green ribbon and done.

I have a few more Christmas cards and then on to the new cards for the new year.

Believe

Here is another Christmas Card that I did a while back. A very quick and easy card.

Only colors are red, black and white.

The stamp is from Flourishes. The only color on the image is the red berries and real red ink. I like the way the card ended up. And I might say that this is the first card in a long time that I didn't have ribbon or brads somewhere. My card base is black, the other white/gray is the background of the web page.

Thanks for stopping by...

All your comments are greatly appreciated.

Snowman Globe

This little snowman is so darn cute, he's actually is behind acetate that is on the snow globe. The globe base is on red paper and white embossed snowflakes, and cut out and glued on to the globe.

I punched the layered tag, added the sentiment and used gold cord to attach it to the gorgeous snowflake background design paper. Last, I attached all this to Sky Blue Cardstock.

*Stamps: Great Impressions

This is one of my favorite Christmas Cards I did for one of my workshops. I think it is adorable. Love the Snowman, he is so cute.

Glitter to help the snow shine.

Thank you for visiting and I hope you come back again. I will be posting some more Christmas Cards soon.

Merry Christmas Lineup Snowmans

Don't you just love Snowman's? These snowmans are really colorful and cute. Not your usual Christmas Colors, but I think the more colorful, the more cheery it seems. Love the big Sheer Bow with the snowflake and rhinestone. Makes the card sparkle. I used the word window punch to put my sentiment on and glued it on the DP. With the Snowmans popped up, I thought the words might look better down on the DP.

Stamps: Stampin Up
Paper: My stash and DP from the Christmas Stacker 2009
Embellishments: Rhinestones, MS Snowflake punch and White Sheer Ribbon
Markers: Tombow's

Have a great evening...

Tis the Season...

Everyone is making all these punch art animals, so I seen the Cardinal on someone's blog and I thought I would try it. I think it is kind of cute, but nothing like the Two Step bird. My cardinal is a little bit puggy, but cute in his own way. Love the colors of the card and really Christmasy with the snowflake embossed in the background.

Stamps: Not sure of where they come from.

Thank You for stopping at my blog. I did these Christmas Cards in July for my Workshop and I wanted to get them on here before Christmas. I hope I don't over load you with to much Christmas Cards.

Season Greetings Poinsettia

I made this card for my sister. I was hoping to make a special card for her, but I think I over did the beads on the poinsettia. Oh well, she liked it, or at least she said she did.

I used a cuttlebug folder for my background mat. I stamped out the 5 petal flower and cut each petal apart and glued it to make this flower. Then added the pine sprigs and then beads for the middle of the flower. I used a white satin ribbon for the backing of the flower and to go around the card front. I used the gold sticker for the Season Greetings.

I had a lot of time on this card, and then to put to may gold beads on the flower. I know the next one if there is a next one not to add to many beads.

Thanks for stopping by...

I think you have had a lot to look at for the night, maybe I can get more on here tomorrow night.

Thanks again for checking out my blog.

Dancing Snowman

Isn't this the cutest snowman.

You just gotta love him.

I bought him at a convention from Designs Unlimited.

And this company will only sell at conventions.

He is so holly jolly and cute.

I colored his hat and scarf with Tombow Markers.

Added the tag, which is punches from Stampin Up.

A fancy blue ribbon and done.

My card base is navy, which looks like black in this picture, but really navy and a lighter blue for the mat

and then the White snowflake embossing folder from Cuttlebug.

Merry Christmas Snowflakes

I made this card and really liked the white snowflakes I added to the red cardstock. Don't remember the company on the snowflakes, but I just put them everywhere and it wasn't a big background stamp either. Just a little stamp with a couple of snowflakes on it. I used the Green Polka Dotted paper from Bo Bunny and white to accent the card. And the glittery red ribbon was a must on this card. The oval tag was punched with punches from Punch Bunch. Only thing left to do was add the brads on the tag. Done and really like this card alot.

Wishing you the joy Christmas brings

Very elegant card. Love the holly branches. Wow, my holly branches has a lot of glitter on them and they are really to shinny to see how nice they are. Sorry about the poorly taken picture.

This is another one of the new Great Impressions November Stamps. I colored the branches with Tombow Markers, a red glaze pen to the red berries and glittered everything. Adding the final touches to the card I added a Red and Gold Ribbon.

Thanks for stopping by.

I hope you aren't bored with my cards yet. I still have a few more to add.

Seasons Greetings

I like this card with all the shinny glitter on it. The green dotted paper is popped up from the card so the bulb could hang from under it. Wow that was hard to say in a few words. I think you know what I meant. The bulb is popped up also.

Stamps: Stampin Up

Paper: Bo Bunny and my stash

Embellishments: Ribbon, Silver Thread and Candy Cane Glitter.

Merry Christmas Santa

Hello Santa...

This is one of the new Great Impressions Christmas Stamps. Santa was painted with a new paint called Inspirations by Creative Inspirations, well, it is like Shimmerz. They are really shimmery. I only have a few of the colors. They make 55 colors. The one I used is called Garnet and Fairy Dust. It was rather easy to paint with a small paint brush and getting the shiny colors was fantastic. Anyway, the design paper is from a Christmas Stacker and blue and white was from my stash. I used the label punch from Stampin Up for the label. And gold brads to accent the card.

Merry Christmas Bird

Inside of card This card is awesome and has a lot of parts and pieces to it.

I love the red, green and brown cardstock together. I know it looks black, but it really is brown.

I seen this tutorial on SCS and I thought it would look nice with this bird stamp. Wow, I was right, I love it.

Stamps: Great Impressions

Paper: Bo Bunny and my stash

Embellishments: Stampin Up Punches and Tombow Markers.

Sweet are the Joys

Inside of the Card
This card is so colorful to me.

Love the stocking stamp.

As you can see the Joy Scalloped circle stays on the inside of the card when opened.

I liked this card when I seen it on someones blog.

So who ever the design belongs to thanks for the inspiration.

I used Tombow markers to color the stockings and then I added gold dots and glitter to the stockings.

I can remember where the stocking stamp was from, but the inside verse is from Great Impressions. If you would like to know about the stocking stamp, email me and I can find my stamp and let you know.

Merry Christmas Snowflakes

This isn't one of my favorite cards this season. I liked the Snowflake embossing folder from Sizzix, but when I tried to sponge the snowflakes with a Brillance Blue Ink Pad, that is when it changed as not one of my favorite cards. Love the Large Snowflake punch from Stampin Up and I used a Martha Stewart little snowflake on top of the large snowflake and glittered both of them, and added blue gel stone in the middle to give the snowflakes some color. I added a tag and ribbon to finish the card.

Happy Christmas

Isn't this stamp georgous. I love it. So many way it can be used. I stamped it on beige/tan cardstock with Stazon ink, I needed to get a good image. I like how the Stazon worked and I didn't need to emboss it. Then I wanted some stripes and I had this striped paper from one of the Christmas Stackers. Worked fine for me. Added ribbon and a button. Done. This card was simple and quick. I used it in my workshops and probably did about 75 of them, so I needed simple and quick. Hope you like it. Oh I forgot to tell you that I got the stamp in the dollar bins at a local craft store. Way worth a dollar to me.

Season's Greetings (Stampin Up)

I made this note card at the Strongsville Convention in October. Very Cute and nice to give to someone on their gift. The envelope is behind the note card and it is white. It is all Stampin Up items. The envelope was run through the Big Shot with the snowflake folder. The bulb was stamped with Real Red Ink and punched out with the new Bulb Punch. I added the pearl in the center of the snowflake. And the tag was punched with the new Label Punch. It is a 3 x 3 square.

Joy

Another fast and simple Christmas Card. Love the stockings. Colored with Tombow Markers and Glittered a lot of the stocking to get the shimmery look and put some Clear Gel Dots on the red strip of cardstock. I added the Joy Sentiment and used punches to pop it out from the card. When the card opens, the black scallop circle is glued to the back of the card, so it looks like there is a bite out of the front of the card. I liked how it turned out even if it looked like a bite was taken out of the card. Cute Cute Cute..... *

Let it Snow

Inside of Card...

How do you like this snowman?

He's a cutie. And to open the card and see him,

wow, to cute.

On the front of the card I used several punches to make the snowflakes popped up.

And gorgeous Bo Bunny paper (doublesided too.)

I added a Red Gel Dot in the middle of the snowflake.

For the inside of the card, I cut a small square in the background paper to make the snowman pop out. Love how it turned out. With the A2 Snowflake Cuttlebug Folder for the background it turned out nicely. It is hard to see the snowflakes on the background, but they are there. A touch of Shinny White Ribbon and done. *
