Snowy Delivery

Hi Friends!

Just a quick post today sharing my DT piece for the Inspiration Post over on the STAMPlorations blog ...

I used the snowman ATC, and added a bit of stamping using the Gone Postal set. It was pooped up on a piece of red card embossed with some stars from the Oh, My Stars! stencil.

My card was finished off with a die-cut sentiment, doodles and some glitter.

Here are the STAMPlorations products I used in today's card:

Gone Postal, Christmas Background ATC #1, Oh, My Stars! Stencil, Christmas Sentiments Phrase Dies

October Christmas In The Air

Hi Crafty Friends!

I'm sharing a few projects for the Christmas In The Air feature over at STAMPlorations using their new Christmas In The Air Kit #3. Have a look ...

My first card showcases the phrase die from the kit. It always makes me think of stars hence I combined it with a star from the Shooting Stars square stencil which I stencilled using silver Glitter Frosting Paste. A couple of rounded corners finished my card off.

My second card showcases the bell from the stencil and the Be Joyful Ephemera Tiles which I combined with the Leaves #1 stencil. I used Aurore, Cire, Grenadine and Framboise Izink inks to stencil my bell before adding the leaves in Menth Izink ink. The sentiment tile finished my card off.

My last card showcases Shirley's aka The Bee's Knees new set Winter Village. I kept it simple with minimal colouring on a pearlised basecard and added a bit of stencilling using the Confetti #1 stencil. A touch of glitter finished my card off.

Over on the STAMPlorations Blog you can find projects by Shirley showcasing Kit #3.

Here are a few close-ups of my projects ...

On A Roll

Hi Friends!

Just a quick post today sharing my DT piece for the Inspiration Post over on the STAMPlorations blog ...

I've gone for a super skinny slimline again. Just loving making these at the moment. As you can tell, I also caught the Making Christmas Cards bug.

Feeling nostalgic I dug out my Joyful set, heat embossed the stocking in gold, watercoloured and fuzzy cut it. I used the smallest oval from the Ovals Flexi-Template to sponge my background and used some of the words from the set for background stamping.

My card was finished off with a touch of glitter glue and a handmade envelope.

Here are the STAMPlorations products I used in today's card:

Joyful, Ovals Flexi-Template

October Theme & Photo Prompt

Hi Friends!

It's getting cooler outside and the days are getting shorter which means the summer break is over and it's getting time for a new round of monthly challenges over at STAMPlorations are back. Here is my DT piece for October's Theme & Photo Prompt Challenge over on their blog.

The theme for the current challenge is Stamps & Shine and the photo prompt can be seen below. Your project can either be inspired by the theme, photo prompt or both. The full challenge rules can be found here on the STAMPlorations Blog.

I'm loving the stars and golden colour from the photo prompt and combined them with lots of glitter accents to help them shine.

I stamped a background of stars using the outline stars from the Three Kings set, added a couple of strips of glitter tape and stencilled a shooting star using gold Glimmer Paste.

As for the Theme & Photo Prompt Challenge prizes:
One winner of a $20 gift code ($25, if STAMPlorations products were used as the main focal point) will be picked by one member of our DT.
Plus 2 randomly drawn winners will each receive a $10 ($15, if STAMPlorations products were used as the main focal point) gift code.

In order to be considered for a prize, make sure you've followed the rules here.
