{ November Tis The Season Highlight from Elle’s Studio }

I have a blog post on Elle’s Studio blog today highlighting Tis The Season collection and November kit + extras. For my layout today I only used the patterned paper from Tis The Season collection and all my other items are from the November kit. I wanted to document our Thanksgiving and as I was gathering all my items from the kit, I loved the blue, black and gray with a touch of wood.

I cut a tag from the same background paper for my journaling and tucked it behind the doily from my stash. When applying adhesive I just make sure I leave a pocket for the tag to fit it. How about that gorgeous Date It Stamp? Love it.

The Thanksgiving Acrylic fit perfectly in the tag section with the large date right below it. I added some twine from my stash along with enamel dots and some die cuts. I love this color combination and will definitively use it again.

Supplies:
Elle’s Studio November 2016 kit
Good Cheer stamp
Thanksgiving Acrylic
Date It Stamp
Deck The Halls Wood Veneers
Christmas Wood Veneer Attachers
Tis The Season 12 x 12 Paper Collection

{ Thankful for Misti blog hop }

Hi and welcome to our Thankful for Misti blog hop.We will be sharing projects we created with our Misti and sharing why we are thankful for the Misti. 

 Here is my card using Impression Obsession stamps and Therm O Web adhesive.

1. I am thankful for the Misti because I can see where I am lining up the stamps. There is no guessing. Once you line it up and pick it up, that is where the stamp will stay. After I heat embossed the small triangles, I stamped the larger row of triangles. 

2. I am thankful for the Misti because I can stamp again, for the second impression, without having anything move.  The first time I stamped the triangles, there was a fuz on one of the lines. I removed the fuzz, reinked and stamped again for a perfect impression.

3. I am thankful for the Misti because I can stamp a sentiment even when my card is completely finished with several layers.

{ Impression Obsession DT challenge – Chill Out (Cool Colors) }

Hi and welcome to our  Impression Obsession challenge – Chill Out (Cool Colors).

This was a fun card tom make. I gathered different shades of ink, from lighter to darker, for the stripes on the card base. I used my Misti to perfectly align my Candy Cane Stripes CAC background stamp.

I stamped Snowflake Dangles at the top using the lightest ink and Deer in Forest on the bottom with two different shades of ink.

The sentiment is from Greetings stamp set and I die cut the Greetings die from silver cardstock. I added sequins to finish the card.

{ Gina K. Designs & CardMaker Blog Hop }

Hi and welcome to Gina K. Designs and CardMaker blog hop. Today we are showcasing cards and/or other paper-crafting projects made using Home for the Holidays StampTV Kit.

The Home for the Holidays StampTV Kit is full of stamps, patterned paper, card stock and dies to help you create beautiful card projects throughout the autumn season and beyond!

The color palette includes Red Velvet, Turquoise Sea, Jelly Bean Green, Christmas Pine, Charcoal Brown, Kraft,  along with Ivory accents. 

Here is what I created.

For this first card I used Christmas Magic stamp set (fairy) and Home for the Holidays stamp set (snowflake)

She is colored using my Prismacolor pencils. I used the matching die to cut her out and 3D foam squares for dimension. I just love those snowflakes. They were stamped matching the colors in the patterned paper and die cut. I added sequins to the center of each one.

My second card uses Christmas Greenery stamp set. I used all the little bits to stamp the background and heat emboss using clear embossing powder.

The trees are stamped at the bottom with white ink and heat embossed using white embossing powder. I layered one of the patterned papers with Kraft cardstock and added sequins.

Thanks fo stopping by.

{ Jillibean Soup and CardMaker Blog Hop }

Hi and welcome to Jillibean Soup and CardMaker blog hop. Today we are showcasing cards and/or other paper-crafting projects made using Christmas stamps and shaker cards.

Here is what I created using Peace, Joy & Love stamp set (houses and sentiment), Snow Globe stamp set (trees), Jar card base and Jar shaker pouch.

For my card I used one of the cards as my template to color in the background. I traced the jar from the front opening to the inside of the card and placed the opening of the other card over the traced image. I colored the opening using distress inks. I stamped and heat embossed the stars. I stamped and colored the houses and stamped the trees.  

I created two different hills for the bottom of the jar by cutting out cardstock and tracing the bottom shape of the jar. I used 3D Foam Squares to layer the hills, houses and trees.

Since I used non traditional colors for my scene I used sequins from my stash to match. The jar pouches have adhesive on the back and line up perfectly through the opening of the card front.  I used an awl to punch a hole on each side of the jar top for the twine.

This was really fun to make. Let me know if you have any questions.

{ Impression Obsession DT challenge –Thanksgiving Wishes }

Hi and welcome to our  Impression Obsession challenge – Thanksgiving Wishes.

For this card I thought I would dig out and play with inchies from Inchie Arts. I was cleaning and found a box full of them.

I used Leaf Stems stamp set and Give Thanks die. I stamped two different leaves on the squares and colored them with watercolor. The stem on the left is stamped and heat embossed with white embossing powder. I added yellow and orange distress ink to make it pop.

How beautiful is that Deco Foil? I have a step by step tutorial on Therm O Web blog a little later today if you want to take a look and see how I used Deco Foil and Deco Foil White Foam adhesive with the die cut.
