25 Days Of Christmas Tags

Hey peeps. I'm participating in the 25 Days Of Christmas Tags this year and I'm super excited. I have seen some amazing tags and the inspiration is overwhelming (in a good way). WOW so many talented people in this crafty community. Today Technique Tuesday is the sponsor.

For my tag today I'm using the Technique Tuesday Hello Winter stamp set and the Sweater Weather crafting die cut. I love the cozy feeling of this shaker tag.

I started off by cutting out the back of the tag and using the Sweater Weather crafting die to make a festive pattern on this piece. Next I stamped the Hello Winter sentiment from the Hello Winter stamp set at the top portion of the tag. I colored out my bomber jacket with Copic markers and used Tulip puffy paint for the fur around the hood. I used black Nuvo drops for the buttons.

I die cut out the top portion of my tag to create a top for the shaker elements. I filled the tag with red, blue, silver and white sequins to keep everything within the color hue I was using. I adhered down my top with double sided foam tape to give it some dimension. All that was left was to add a top piece for the ribbon and twine to go through and tie all the ribbon and twine into a few bows. I adhered my bomber jacket to the shaker tag with adhesive.

Thanks for stopping by today. Make sure to swing by Tracey's blog to see all the beautiful tags that were created for today.

Ink On 3 October Release

Hey peeps. Ink On 3 is full of holiday and spiritual inspiration with this latest release. I played with two of the new stamp sets called Poinsettia and Merry and Bright for my card today.

I decided to make a background with this stamp set. I stamped all the images in juicy ink and then heat embossed them with the gold rush embossing powder. I simply colored the images with white and red color pencils. I filled in the remaining area with the pine needles in red ink.

Here's a close up of the coloring. Coloring on white over the red cardstock makes the white not so stark. I love doing this technique on color cardstock. On some of the white poinsettias I added a red layer of color pencil over the white and deepened the shadows with a darker red.

Next I stamped out one of the sentiments from the Merry and Bright stamp set on olive cardstock and heat embossed it in gold rush. I decided to layer this sentiment square onto a piece of white cardstock I entirely heat embossed in the gold rush embossing powder. I wrapped a strip of vellum around the colored panel and adhered the sentiment to it with foam tape. Finally the colored panel was adhered to a white card base.

Make sure to head on over to the Ink On 3 blog today as there is a blog hop and special discounts. I'll see you guys back here soon.

Holiday Gift Giving - Oriental Trading

Hey hey peeps. Are you ready for the holidays? Well if you're not, too late love they are here. LOL It's time to share some kindness and what better way than to do it with homemade cookies, some candy treats and bottles of wine. Yes something for everyone. Nothing to me is better than showing your family, friends and neighbors how much you appreciate them. And guess what you don't have to break the bank to do it.

You can truly be in style this year and give your goodies in style using some fun and happy products from Oriental Trading. I love giving a good bottle of wine and who wouldn't want to receive one in an adorable bottle sweater bags. Look how cute this adorable ugly sweater one is.

Like I said I love giving away goodies however I'm not a great bread maker. So instead of using regular goodie bags to add some holiday candy in, I used super cute Christmas treat containers filled with yummy chocolates, vanilla tootsie rolls and lifesavers. There is sooo much candy to pick from at Oriental Trading.

Now you can't have wine without something sweet to follow it after a great meal. I used some cute Christmas trays with bags and tags. I popped in some different kinds of cookies and my packing was complete. How cute are the little Snoopy figures on the bag and tag?

Speaking for gift giving, I'm giving myself a little bit of a break to focus on my health and my family. I'll be back later in the month to share with you a few bits of news and maybe, just maybe an AWESOME giveaway. ;-) Be safe and be kind to one another!

Hugs and love~

Altenew Geometric Flower Card

Hey peeps. Happy Monday. You all know me, I like to think outside of the box. When I purchased the Altenew Geometric Flower stamp set I already knew I wanted to use it to make my Christmas cards. We don't always have to reach for those holiday stamps to create something beautiful this time of year. So grab those summer stamp sets and use them in the winter months. I promise the stamp police will no be showing up on your door step.

Here is the card I made using the Geometric Flower stamp set, white embossing powder and some scarlet and green Brusho. This card was very easy to put together. I first stamped out the flowers leaving my bottom area free. I sprinkled on some white embossing powder and heat seat my flowers. Next, I placed a piece of paper down to cover the lower portion of my card and sprinkled on some red and green Brusho. I spritzed on just a bit of water to get my colors to move across my paper. This technique is so easy and fun. You totally get a different effect each time you do it.

To finish up my card I stamped my Big Scripty Greetings Holiday sentiment from Simon Says Stamp with Memento Luxe Love Letter ink and heat set it with clear embossing powder. I added just a few sequin to finish off my card panel. Instead of placing my panel on a white card base, I used one of my new favorite neutral colors Fog from Simon Says Stamp.

That wraps up my card for today. I'll see you guys back here soon!

Sweet Peek Week SugarPea Designs Day 3

Hey peeps. It's day 3 already. Where has the week gone already? Are you ready for a few more sweet peeks? Well let's get started. All new product will be available for purchase starting this Friday, October 14th at 6PM EST in the SPD Store. (Remember: links WILL NOT work until Friday 6PM EST)

My card for today is rather sweet that's if you like Gingersnaps. Well my little guy is suffering a serious migraine because someone has bitten off his head. LOL I love this little guy. Using the Happy Holiday paper pad helped me make this card in under five minutes. All I needed to do was color my little gut up, die cut out a tag and add some matching bakers twine and my card was complete.

My second card of today features the beautiful Seasons Greetings stamp set. You all know I LOVE me a pretty font and this set is just full of them. This card was very easy to pull together. I grabbed one of the pretty papers from the Happy Holidays pattern paper pad and die cut out a cloud. Next I stamped the sentiment and heat embossed it in gold. I inlaid the clouds back onto the paper and added some sequins. I framed out my paper in gold glitter paper. I LOVE how this card turned out.
