I am a bit late in showing Sneak Peeks of the upcoming Occasions and Sale-A-Bration catalog . So today I have Fresh Friday! A new card with new products, and sort of a new layout. So here we go!
Piece of Cake Bundle, 150579
Do you think this card is cheery enough? LOL! I started with this gorgeous DSP from the Happiness Blooms Designer Series Paper. I have always loved the Pineapple Punch and this was a great way to use it as a background and focal point at the same time.
The sentiment and punched cake are the Piece of Cake Bundle. It is a must have! The adorable little flower is Frosted Flower Embellishments and is perfect for the little bit of addition to the cake. Even better, it comes with adhesive attached. Woohoo!!
The cake and cake stand are punched from a Sale-A-Bration freebie of Grapefruit Grove & Lovely Lipstick Foil Sheets. Ordering the paper and Stamp / Punch Bundle pretty much get you to the $50.00 needed for the Free foil sheets. So bookmark all of this for the January 3 go live date!!!
Thank you so much for visiting today. I hope you have a great weekend and Christmas. I will be here and please stop in if you have a chance. Almost all of the supplies are listed at the bottom of the page. I could not grab the Frosted Flower Embellishments, and the Birthday Cheer stamp set. That is the background that is stamped on the Pineapple strip.
Today I have continued with the Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbon theme from yesterday’s InKing Royalty Blog Hop. I made a couple of cards and the one I used yesterday in the hop was my favorite. The one I am sharing today is the second favorite. Again, there is only a tiny bit of stamping. It is definitely different.
Tea Room Ribbon Combo, 146893
This is not a normal stamping card as you can see. But I have always loved the ribbon trees you see in different forms each year. I used to have throw pillows that had a gorgeous gold ribbon for the tree. So I created one in miniature for my card. This ribbon is from the Tea Room Suite of products. You get the Coastal Cabana ribbon and the Vanilla ribbon together in one pack. They are a great value and are beautiful.
To match the ribbon color, I went with Coastal Cabana as a layer. It is not a normal Christmas color, but who cares! The beautiful gold DSP is from the Broadway Bound Specialty DSP. It is thick and gorgeous!
Thank you so much for stopping by today. I will be back to a normal card to share with you tomorrow. As always, all of the supplies I used are listed at the bottom of the page.
Welcome to InKing Royalty’s December Blog Hop! This year’s Blog Hop themes are inspired by popular songs – this month’s song is “Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons.” As you can guess, our Blog Hop today is filled with projects that are inspired by beautiful paper and beautiful ribbons – how clever! We are excited to share our creations with you today! After you read my post, I hope you’ll hop over to the next person on the list at the base of this post.
From the minute I heard this Blog Hop title, I have had that song in my head. Except that is about all of the song I can remember. So I am humming Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbon! Yikes. So….with that in my head, I came up with a “Wrapped” card. That song reminds me of a gift. Here is my gift to you today.
TMerry Merlot & Copper Reversible Ribbon, 147818
This is really not a card for mailing, but I love how it turned out. The focal points of the card are the ribbon and the tag. Although the Joyous Noel Specialty DSP, and Glimmer Paper, are fabulous. The little tag is stamped with the sprig from the Peaceful Noel stamp set. The sentiment ,”This Is For You!”, is from the Takeout Treats stamp set. It is embossed with Copper embossing powder. The reversible ribbon with Merry Merlot and Copper really ties in with the two papers and the embossed sentiment.
All of the supplies for today’s project are listed at the bottom of the post. And don’t forget the Clearance Rack, it has been updated this week!! You may find some of my supplies on there.
Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you’ll hop along to the next stop on the bloghop,Rachel Shedeed at Bluebonnet Stampin’. There’s lots of inspiration to be found in this group – and you don’t want to miss it!
Last week I made a Really Sparkly gift card holder for the Pals Blog Hop. You can see that post HERE. So I am using some of the same pack of Joyous Noel Glimmer DSP for today’s card. I just used a different color.
Dashing Deer Bundle, 149935
My Sparkly, Dashing Deer! For all the sparkle and shine, there is actually very little stamping involved on this one. I die cut the deer and the filigree in the corner using the Dies from the Dashing Deer Bundle. I stamped on the deer with the small flower in the stamp set, and that is it.
I used the multi-purpose adhesive sheets for the filigree. It would have been tedious to attempt to get glue on those little pieces. I believe even using the fine tip glue pen it would be exacting. So the multi-purpose adhesive sheets to the rescue. You just attach the sheet to your card stock before you die cut and easy peasy. You have basically turned your card stock into a sticker. This works especially well when you are trying to adhere something to the glimmer DSP.
For the finishing touch, I added the gold pearls to the flowers I stamped on the deer. Its a simple way to up the game just a bit. And of course, this had to be a Rudolph. So I added one Red Rhinestone to the tip of the nose for the final bling, and necessary touch, for my card.
Thank you for visiting today! Please come back tomorrow for the InKing Royalty Blog Hop. I cannot wait to see what my fellow demonstrators have come up with this month.
I am on a Bright kick for some reason. I believe the sentiments in a couple of the stamp sets have steered me in that direction and I have kept going. And whatever leads you in a crafty direction is a good thing. So here is another bright Christmas card.
Making Everyday Bright, 148013
My plan is that the lightbulbs be in the shape of a Christmas Tree. I hope you can see that!! I never know if I succeed in my wild ideas or not. You could be seeing bowling pins lined up (Yikes!) Now I see bowling pins. LOL!!
The Making Everyday Bright stamp set pairs with the Christmas Bulb Builder Punch. And the punch is part of the Making Christmas Bright Bundle of punch and stamp set. I really love when Stampin’ Up! makes more than one set to fit a punch or a die. I feel like it is more bang for your buck. The Making Everyday Bright set has other than Christmas light bulbs. It is set for all year round. Love, Love, Love it!!
I almost forgot to mention the sentiment. It is from the Making Christmas Bright Stamp set. I punched the blue with the Everyday Label Punch and the Poppy with the Darling Label Punch. I then trimmed both down to a smaller size to fit on the top of the card. Don’t be afraid to experiment with your punches!
Thank you so much for visiting today! I hope you will return tomorrow. I am trying to finish up my Christmas cards for mailing! Yikes!!!
I had used the Hung With Care Host Rewards Stamp set on a card the other day. When I was looking at the stamps, I noticed the one that looks like a Hawaiian print on the stocking. That gave me the idea for this card. I remembered the Tropical Escape DSP has the same flower on it. So here you have a Non-Traditional color Christmas card with a Non-Traditional Stocking that is hung with care.
Hung With Care, 147882
I hope you think this pairing is a cute as I do! I love these colors together and the flower of both pieces. I know Granny Apple Green and Blushing Bride are not colors you would normally pair together…..or maybe you would. I probably will from now on.
The stocking is colored with Stampin’ Write Markers. The added touch of the Granny Apple Ribbon was just right to me. And since I will not be mailing this one, I decided to go with a bit larger accessory . That is the Tinted Faceted Button. I threaded a piece of Whisper White Baker’s Twine through the holes and attached the button to the ribbon with a couple of glue dots.
Thank you so much for visiting with me today. I hope you like my unusual colors of Christmas. All of the supplies are listed at the bottom of the page.
