Christmas Season Bundle

Hello my friends,

I have used the Christmas Season Bundle (#156801) for this Christmas card.




The Very Vanilla card front (#106550) was dry embossed with the Merry Melody 3D Embossing Folder (#156392), then matted with Garden Green card (#108605). This was taped to the Very Vanilla base card.

The pine cones and leaves are from the Christmas Season stamp set (#156293). The pine cones were stamped with Crumb Cake ink (#147116) & Soft Suede ink (#147115). The leaves were stamped with Garden Green ink (#147089), Old Olive ink (#147090) and Pear Pizzaz ink (#147104). The pinecones and leaves are all cut from the Seasonal Labels Dies (#156299).

“Merry Christmas” is from the Peaceful Deer stamp set (#156891) and stamped with Garden Green ink. A die from the Seasonal Labels die was used to cut the sentiment. The leaves and small pinecone were taped to the card and the large pinecone and sentiment were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

You probably can’t see that I used the Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) on the pinecones and leaves to give a bit of glimmer.

Have you started your Christmas cards yet? There is such a great variety of Christmas products in the Mini catalogue and also some in the Annual catalogue.

Sending Hugs Bundle

Welcome everyone,

The Sending Hugs Bundle (#155859) consists of the Sending Hugs stamp set (#155022) and the Layering Hugs Dies (#155860), which I have used on todays card.




I stamped the image from the stamp set with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) onto Basic White card (#159228). I coloured the image with the following  Stampin’ Blends - Granny Apple Green (#154885), Polished Pink (#155520), Mint Macaron (#154889), Daffodil Delight (#154883) and Flirty Flamingo (#154884).

I cut the detailed leaf/flower/hugs image from the Gold Shimmer Vellum (#156471) and attached it over the stamped image. The vellum was backed with Adhesive sheet (#152334). “Hugs” were cut from the Polished Pink card (#155711) and attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). I added some glimmer to “Hugs” with the Clear Wink Of Stella Brush (#141897).

I stamped “birthday” and “& kisses” with Polished Pink ink (#155712) and these were cut with a die also from the Layering Hugs. These were attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

The 2 corners were punched with the Detailed Trio punch (#146320). The card front was then matted with Polished Pink card. The base card is Basic White.

Hello friends,

This card is highlighting 2 of the Sale-a-bration products which you can get for free. With each $90 order (in Australia) you can choose 1 free product.





The base card is Very Vanilla (#106550). I dry embossed the Blackberry Bliss card (#133682) with the Wintry 3D Embossing Folder (#155433). There are 2 folders in this set, one with snowflakes which I have used on this card, and the other has pine leaves.

I daubered the Peaceful Prints Designer Series Paper (#156628) from Sale-a-bration with Blackberry Bliss ink (#147092) and attached this to the card.

I cut Blackberry Bliss card with a die from the Delicate Baubles Dies (#156383). The detailed die from the same set was used to cut the Be Dazzling 6”x6” Specialty Paper (#156629), also from Sale-a-bration. I had adhered Adhesive Sheet (#152334) to the back of the Be Dazzling paper before cutting. This was then adhered to the solid bauble, then attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

I punched the ends of the 1/2” strip of Be Dazzling Specialty Paper with the Banners Pick A Punch (#153608). This was taped to the card. The sentiment from the Peaceful Deer stamp set (#156891) was stamped with Blackberry Bliss ink and cut with a Seasonal Labels Die (#156299).

Quiet Meadow Bundle

Hello,

When a new catalogue comes out it is easy to forget some of the great products in the Annual catalogue, so today I have used the Quiet Meadow Bundle (#155847) which I had almost “forgotten” about.








I stamped the image from the Quiet Meadow stamp set (#155082) with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) onto Very Vanilla card (#106550). The flowers were coloured with Flirty Flamingo Stampin’ Blends (#154884) and Polished Pink Stampin’ Blends (#155520). The leaves and stems were coloured with Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends (#154885). I then dry embossed this card front with the Tasteful Texture 3D Embossing Folder (#152718) and daubered the edges with Polished Pink ink (#155712).

I attached the Polished Pink card (#155711) to the Very Vanilla base card, then added the card front.

Using dies from the Meadow dies (#155852), I cut the Granny Apple Green card (#147014) and Polished Pink card. The Granny Apple Green card was backed with Adhesive Sheets (#152334), so these were easily attached to the card. The Polished Pink flowers were attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

The sentiment from the Quiet Meadow stamp set was stamped with Polished Pink ink and cut with another die from the Meadows Dies. The White Glittered Organdy Ribbon (#156408) was attached to the card, then the sentiment was attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I added the From My Heart Faceted Gems (#151154) to the die-cut pink flowers and onto the card front to finish the card.
