Embossed Christmas Card

Hello friends,

I hope you've had a great Thanksgiving and lovely time with your friends and family. Now that Thanksgiving is over, it's busy time to put on Christmas decorations.

Today I'm sharing a simple Christmas card using an embossing folder called O'Christmas Tree by Crafter's Companion. I simply embossed a piece of card stock, slightly off to the side. Next, I added the sentiment from Joy & Spirit. Few blue rhinestone for the tree and voila it's done :).

Thanks so much for stopping by, have a great day!

Thinking of You!

Hello friends,

I hope you've had a wonderful time with your family on Thanksgiving. This year, I baked honey glazed ham, instead of turkey. It was a big hit, especially with my little ones. They love ham with cinnamon apple on top. I'm drooling just to talk about food :). Let's get to the card I made!

This card was made using the CC stamps sets called Floral Fancies and Dreamy Daisies. I really love the delicate details of this floral image. Uh I don't even know what type of flower this is. Can someone tell me please?

I stamped the images and colored them with Spectrum Noir: BP6, BP2, PP1, DG3, CG2, and CG1. For the sentiment, I white embossed it on a piece of black card stock. I adhered the sentiment on vellum and trimmed it. Then the sentiment was adhered over the floral background using foam tape.

Thanks for stopping by, have a wonderful day!

Christmas Ornament Card

Hello friends,

Today I'm sharing an ornament card using a stamp set by Crafter's Companion: Jingle Bells

Here are the steps to make this card:

Step 1: On a piece of card stock, stamp the images (Jingle Bells) in Cottage Ivy and Lady Bug

Step 2: Fussy cut the images

Step 3: Make 2 bows using hem cord and adhere on top of the round images to make them look like ornaments

Step 4: Arrange the ornaments on the card base to the desired location, and measure the distance from the top of the ornament to the top of the card base

Step 5: Cut 2 pieces of hem cord a little longer than the measurement in step 4 and adhere behind the ornaments

Step 6: Adhere the ornaments on the card base and add a strip of gold glittered card stock on the top

Thanks so much for stopping by, have a very Happy Thanksgiving!

Hello friend, and welcome back. It's Paper Sweeties Release Rewind Day.

I die cut "merry" (PTI) and adhered on the background. "Christmas" sentiment is from the set Do you see what I see? I adhered them over the background using foam tape. Finally, I added few clear sequins.
