Christmas Card for The Hubby

I've just finished up wrapping all the gifts for our house, now to do the ones at my Mom's tomorrow night. All the time wrapping for the girls to rip through them in 10 seconds flat. :o)

I used my new Stamp Set Let It Snow by Impression Obsession. I got it fairly late, so I didn't have much time to play with it this year. I thought this one stamp out of the set was perfect for a card to my hubby. lol. That so would be us!

Recipe:

Stamps: Let it Snow
Paper: Baja breeze, Snowflake PP by?, Choc. Chip and WW
Ink: Baja breeze, choc chip
Extras: MS glue pad, irid ice ep, snowflake punches, blender pens, shimmerz, white perfect puff, ribbon, Snowflake brad, SU marker, Cuttlebug dots folder on big snowflake

It's snowing like crazy here. Definitely not the norm for us to get this much and these cold temps for this long.

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas to you and yours!

CTMH SC206 Elves

My girlfriend Suzi gave me CTMH holiday paper package with part of my xmas gift this past weekend. I had bought the elves set from her friends party and she brought it down with her. Not traditional Elf colours, but I wanted to use the CTMH paper for the card and I've got to match everything of course!

I used this weeks SC over at SCS for the layout. My girls kept bugging me with wanting to do their own crafts, so I kept it simple. I'm not really liking it, but I'll send it to Suzi anyways. lol.

Recipe:

Stamps - CTMH Merry Pursuits and a word one from??
Paper - Very Vanilla and CTMH Aspen collection
Ink - Blue bayou, soft sky, baja breeze, pink pirhouette.
Accessories - snowflake punch, snowflake bards, shimmer pen, diamond stickles, blender pen, SU markers, scallop punch, corner punch, sanding paper.

I'm happy to be done all my Christmas cards and can just make something now if I feel like it, not have to!

Thanks for stopping by!

Crisscross Christmas

Well, I made myself get into the dungeon yesterday while the girls were at Kindergarten. I wanted to make my very own crisscross card from scratch. I had to improvise on the band as I noticed after that it had to be 12". I really don't own much 12" paper, so had to use turq. pp for it. I pulled out those MS glitters again. I'm going glitter coocoo. Can't stop myself it seems!
As always, it's hard to get a good picture. The word on the little inside piece of paper says wish! I wish for a new vehicle for Christmas. hee hee. After a $500 bill today, I can dream that right.... :o)

Supplies:

Stamps - Small Script
Papers - The Paper Company - Snowflake Sentiments, SU Tempting turq. pp, cool carib., tempt. turq.
Inks - MS glue pad
Accessories - small corner rounder, MS snowflake, gem brad, MS glitters.

Happy Weekend to all!

Plum Sky Snowflake

I bought this paper at a local LSS a couple weeks ago and just love the big embossed sparkly snowflakes on it. Matches up to the perfect plum and soft sky perfectly. I made the card to the size of the snowflake. I was able to get 3 similar cards from the 12x12 and some leftover for other play. Added a couple MS snowflakes with diamond icicles all over them for a little something more. I've been really trying to keep the majority of my xmas cards simple so I can get all of them made.

Ingredients:

No stamps... must be a first for me.
Paper - Best Creations PP, soft sky, perfect plum.
Accessories - MS artic snowflake punch, diamond icicles.

Short and sweet like the time it took me to make this card!

Thanks for peaking in!

Glittery Christmas

I got the idea for multi colours of glitter on one image from stampnextra's Technique Tuesday's.
I have just gotten the MS glitter package and thought I'd try those. It turned out to be really easy to use 3 different colours. I love the look of the multi colours that was on stampnextra's tree and might have to do that tree for my next card. Since, I have no kiddies, I best get into the dungeon to create. 1 month until Christmas! Can you believe it? Enjoy your Sunday!

Recipe:

Stamps - Season of Joy
Papers - SU winter PP, Real red, baja and old olive
Inks - MS glue pad
Accessories - MS snowflake punch, Shimmerz - Angel Wingz, MS glitters - Turq., Garnet, Peridot, red ribbon.

Blue Blue Christmas

I wanted another quick and simple Christmas card and this is what came together. I'm such a lucky girl.. well I guess I'm no longer a girl, but lady just sounds to old and mature. :o) Anyways, my Mom bought me MS's 18 pack of different coloured glitter. Yippee! So, this is using the turquoise glitter on the tree and word Sparkle. I used the sakura glue pen for the glitter to adhere to.

No kids both nights this weekend, so I best get my butt into the dungeon and get creating. I want to be able to have cards made to give to my Mom to give out.

Recipe:

Stamps - Season of Joy, Warm Words
Papers - SU new winter one, Soft sky, Baja breeze, WW
Inks - Soft sky, Baja breeze
Accessories - MS turquoise glitter, Sakura glue pen, Michaels ribbon, snowflake brad, word window punch

Have a great weekend!
