Roses done in purple... Heartfelt day.

Stamping is new to me, only a few years ago I started to get deep into it. By that I me an I've been buying and hoarding stamps, but have I truly used them? Nope... I have some still in their new package, so I have to admit that using the Heartfelt stamps and dies has been new experience.  All the stamps are so easy to work with and having the coordinating dies makes each project easy to accomplish.  This week, I worked with purple... a color I seldom use, but I think I might add it to my favorite's list.  This is my card this week... I stamped and colored this rose with StampingUP! purple plumb... first time using them also. lol

Die cut enough petals and leaves to make 1 flower. I used a piece of purple paper from the collection. Made one rose and centered it on the leaf. Added Stickles and set it aside to dray.  The leaves I colored with the Tim Holtz Peeled Paint ink.

On a piece of white paper, stamp the single rose from the Classic Rose Vines Cling stamp and color it in with the inks mentioned above. Die cut this colored rose image and then stamp and die cut a second piece.
Now, using foam tape adhere one over the other and center it on the card using some more foam tape to give it even more dimension.

I have completed 10 card with envelopes mind you, lol that is the most I've done in years to prepare for any holiday.  Here is one more Christmas card I made to try and inspire you guys.
Let me know what you think...


This is a very sparkly card, thanks to Stickles [which I put on EVERYTHING!] but the picture did not capture it  :(
Here is how it was made and what was used...

Products used:
HCD1-7108 Snow Kissed Flakes and Tag dies
HCD1-743 Raindrop on Roses Die

Other materials used, white card stock, Stickles "Star Dust", Copic markers RV69 Peony - B95 Light Grayish Cobal - B10 Cool Shadow, paper rounding tool, flat back blue beads.

This card is the easiest card ever.
1. You will need a piece of white cardstock 6 x 9.50, fold in half, this makes your card base.

2. Cut a 5.75 x 4.50 piece of paper from the Snow Kissed Collection, [round all four edges] this will make the first mat you will layer over your card base.


3. Die cut Large Snowflake Background which measures 4.2 x 4.2" from the designer paper collection and die cut the Decorative Snowflake which measures 4 x 4" and the lacy accent that features hearts nestled amidst elegant swirls also from the white card stock.



4. Stamp, color using the Copic markers mentioned above and die cut the cute snowman. Stickel his scarf and set him aside to dry.


5. From the designer paper, cut a sentiment of choice, I liked one that read, "Celebrate the Season".  Layer it over a piece of white card stock and cut each side banner style.



6. Layer it all, adhere the lacy accent to the mat then the snowflake background and the decorative snowflake. on the left hand side add your cute snowman and the sentiment on the right hand side. Add a tiny flat back bead to the corners, Stickle the white snowflake and you're done!
