Merry Christmas chalkboard card using Graphic 45, Quietfire and Spellbinders

Happy Tuesday!

Popping in to share another Christmas card.  The card used the Merry Christmas stamp from Quietfire's Christmas set "Merry Christmas Sentiments".  Below is the stamp set:

It was heat embossed in white on black chalkboard paper.  Then it was die cut using Spellbinders Labels Nine.  Wood grain paper was die cut using Spellbinders Decorative Labels Twenty-Eight.  Graphic 45 paper (Nutcracker- a hoarded sheet!) was die cut using 5x7 Enchanted Labels.  Kraft paper was matted under the stack.  Distress Ink in Vintage Photo and Walnut Stain was applied on all edges. The poinsettias (Spellbinders die set) was cut from some hoarded velvet ribbon.

Thanks so much for stopping by.  Have a great Tuesday!  :)
Hugs,
Kathy Jo

Bright and Cheery Bicycle Birthday card

Hello All!  Today I am sharing a card at Quietfire Creations.  It is a quick and cheery Happy Birthday card using Quietfire's Happy Birthday Plain and Simple stamp set.  The set consists of the seven stamps shown below:

The card is also using a new die I purchased over the weekend, Spellbinders' In'spire die Bicycle.  Isn't it so cute?  It really goes well with the Kaisercraft paper, Bubblegum Hills.  The pad of paper even had little tags in the back...bonus!  Here is a closeup of the stamp on one of the tags:

I am beginning to realize I have an addiction to dies and to sentiment stamps.  LOL.  Big shocker, I know!  

For more info on the card and products used, feel free to hop over to the Quietfire blog.  :)

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful week!

Bingo Mother's Day card

 

Happy Tuesday, All!

Another Mother's Day card to share.  This one was for my mom last year and I was not an active blogger at that time.  A year late to post is better than never!

As you can probably guess, my mom likes playing bingo so the Art Impressions stamp of Bingo Jean was used.  Spellbinders Beaded Circles and Labels Nine as well as Tim Holtz's Bingo card embossing folder were applied as shown.  Jean was colored using Glaze Pens and Copic marker Lipstick was used on the beaded ring around the image. The sentiment stamps were from Michaels $1.50 bins.
