Winter Wreaths with Marine and Waleska

Hello crafty friends, Marine here, super happy to be back with this new shaker card showcasing the beautiful Winter Wreaths stamp set. As very often I went for non-traditional colors, and I started off by stamping the wreath using blue ink. I used blue shades to stamp the poinsettias, and a light grey ink to stamp the bow. And I added embossed details in silver on those elements to bring some shine.

Next I created the window. I cut a white Comic Strip Speech Bubble panel, a second one out of scrap paper, and an acetate panel. I temporarily taped the second frame to the acetate panel, and used white ink along with a sponge dauber to create a frosty look on the acetate. And I also added splatters of that same white ink all over the acetate.

Next I worked on the shaker panel. I first attached the white frame to the acetate using double sided tape. At the back of the panel, I added foam strips on the four edges and on the slim strips as well. I made the inside foam edges non sticky using my powder tool, added White Snowflake Confetti and iridescent confetti inside each small window, and closed the shaker panel using a pattern paper from the Very Merry paper pack.

I heat embossed my "Happy Holidays" greeting from Holiday Greetings in silver on black cardstock, cut it using the coordinating die and attached it below the wreath using foam squares. And finally I added a few clear droplets here and there to bring more shine to the card.

And that's it, this is the final result and I hope you like it. As always, you are welcome to check the process video for more details (click on the image above). Thank you so much for stopping by, and see you next time.

Hello there, Waleska here. Today I have card inspiration for you with two of my favorite elements, rainbow colors and inks! This colorful card is just so happy and bright I hope you like it!

For this card I started by creating the inky background I used some of my favorite Oxide Ink colors on Nina Solar White cardstock. The colors I used are Festive Berries, Mustard Seed, Spiced Marmalade, Mowed Lawn, Peacock Feathers and Wilted Violet. I added water splashes to this panel to add interest and for some shine I added glitter watercolor too. I then stamped the wreath from Winter Wreaths, I used the pine bough with white embossing powder and I inked it with the same colors I used for the background panel, I cut the wreath with the coordinating die and I adhere it to the center of my front panel.

I stamped the beautiful layered bow that comes in the stamp set trying to match the colors I previously used. I used Spectrum Noir Inks in tones: Red: bordeaux, orange and Chinese red; Yellow: honey pot, lemon tonic and straw bale; Purple: damson wine, crushed velvet and pale fig; Aqua: Lagoon, parakeet and Oasis. I love the 3D look of this bow.  

I cut some peppermint candies from the Gingerbread House dies and I started decorating the wreath with all this elements. Finally I added a frame from the Fancy Frame Rectangle dies with white cardstock and stamped the sentiment from the Jolly Gingerbread stamp set. Super fun and colorful card, thank you so much for stopping by, have a wonderful rest of your day!

Snow One Like You Cards with Bobbi and Cathy

Hello Sunny friends. It’s Bobbi here with a couple of festive tags featuring the new Snow One Like You stamps and dies. 

This sweet snowman and girl duo are adorably cute and the perfect size to use with the Mini Mat & Tag die sets.

For my first tag, I used the Mini Mat & Tag 1 dies for the mat and Mini Mat & Tag 2 dies for the tag. I cut the mat from a pattern paper from the Joyful Holiday Paper Pack and the tag from white cardstock.  I stamped and colored the snowman and girl using Copic markers in BV000, YG67, YG03, R29, R14, RV09, RV55, C100, C07, C05 and C03.

I attached the tag to the mat and used foam tabs to attach the snowman/girl image. The foam tabs make it stand out a bit from the background. This is such a quick tag to make. I just added a bold sentiment at the top using the Holiday Greetings Sentiments stamps and dies and a baker’s twine string to finish the tag. I will write my to/from on the back of the pattern paper before attaching the tag.

My second tag is similar to the first. I used the mat from the Mini Mat & Tag 2 die set and the tag from Mini Mat &Tag 4 die set. I used the sentiment from the Snow One Like You stamp set. The pattern paper is also from the Joyful Holiday Paper Pack.

I colored the image in red/green/white colors for a more traditional look. I added some faux white stitching around the mini mat using my Gelly Roll white pen. A few snowflakes and iridescent gems finish off this bright, red tag.

Hey friends! Cathy here today with a fun card featuring the Snow One Like You Stamps. This adorable stamp reminds me of Frosty the Snowman! The cute little girl and her pups are welcoming him to their home for Christmas!

I started this mini slimline card by creating the front of the house. This took a little bit of time, but it was a fun process! First, I cut a piece of off-white cardstock 3 1/4" x 3 1/4". To create the brickwork, I die-cut a small rectangle die from the Gingerbread House Dies from off-white cardstock numerous times and adhered them in staggered rows to the cardstock piece. I trimmed off any “bricks” that overlapped the edges. I also added random areas of gray with a Copic marker. For the roof, I die-cut 2 scalloped edge dies from the Sweet Treat House Add-On from black cardstock and used a Versamark pen with white embossing powder for snow. I adhered them to the top of the cardstock piece and trimmed the edges on both sides with scissors. I cut a piece of black cardstock 1” x 3 1/4" and adhered it tucked slightly under the bottom edge of the 3 1/4" x 3 1/4" cardstock piece. I then adhered this combined piece to the top of a 3 1/4” x 6 1/4" card front.

For the snowdrifts, I die-cut the Tropical Trees Backdrop Die from white cardstock and cut the “sky” portion of the die-cut to 2 3/4" x 3 1/4". I heat embossed a sentiment from the Santa Claus Lane Stamps and adhered this piece to the bottom of the card front. I repeated this process for the small snowdrifts at the very bottom of the card. I cut a “sky” portion to 1” x 3 1/4" and adhered it to the bottom and then adhered a “sand” portion on top and trimmed the edges with scissors.

I die-cut the door, wreath and bow from the Sweet Treat House Add-on. For extra dimension on the door, I die-cut the center panels 3 times and layered them and colored the wreath with Copics. I die-cut the window from the Gingerbread House Dies and stamped, colored and fussy cut the lamppost from the Paris Afternoon Stamps.

I stamped the images on Neenah Classic Crest 80lb solar white cardstock, colored them with Copics and die-cut them using the coordinating dies. I used the following stamps and dies:
Snow One Like You Stamps and Dies

Critters on the Go Stamps and Dies

 

To finish, I used a BG000 Copic under the images and around the bottom snowdrifts to help them stand out more and add a bit of color to the white snow.

I hope you enjoyed my frosty scene and thanks for stopping by today! For more inspiration, please visit my blog www.inkredibleadventures.com and you can also find me on Instagram as @cathy.chapdelaine.

Joyful Holiday Paper Focused Cards with Cathy and Bobbi

Hey friends! Cathy here today with a card featuring some of my favorite papers from the Joyful Holiday Paper. I just love the beautiful bold poinsettia prints in this paper pack and the colors are so fun and fresh for the Holidays!

To start, I cut the pink poinsettia paper 3” x 5 1/2", centered a Stitched Semi-Circle Die along the bottom 5 1/2" edge and die-cut the paper. I adhered this piece to the top of an A2 card base. I die-cut the gray snowflake paper using the same die. Before I adhered it to the card front, I die-cut a tree from the Rustic Winter Dies from white and dark gray cardstock and adhered the tree to the left side trimming the excess along the top edge of the semi-circle.

Next, I cut the pink polka dot paper 1” x 5 1/2" and adhered it to the bottom of the card front. To create the double scalloped edges, I cut a piece of white glitter cardstock and dark brown cardstock 1 “ x 5 1/2" and die-cut the bottom edge of each piece using the Icing Border Dies. I overlapped the pieces and adhered them across the bottom of the semi-circle. For extra interest, I cut a piece of gray cardstock 5/8” x 5 1/2" and die-cut along the center of the strip using an Frilly Frame Eyelet Lace Die. I adhered this across the top edge of the glitter cardstock. I love that little bit of extra detail.

I stamped the cute reindeer from the Reindeer Games Stamps on Neenah Classic Crest 80lb solar white cardstock, colored it with Copics and die-cut it using the coordinating dies. The large poinsettia from the Classy Christmas Stamps goes beautifully with the poinsettia paper and I decided to fussy cut the image and pop it up with foam tape to really make it stand out.

To finish, I die-cut the gray/white plaid paper using the tag die from the Stitched Semi-Circle Dies, heat embossed the sentiment and added a Pure White Jewel over the hole in the tag.

I hope you enjoyed and thanks for stopping by today! For more inspiration, please visit my blog www.inkredibleadventures.com and you can also find me on Instagram as @cathy.chapdelaine.

Hello crafty friends. It’s Bobbi here and I’m sharing a few peppermints and shiny candies on this cute gingerbread house covered in fun holiday papers. I’m using the Gingerbread House dies with the new Joyful Holiday pattern paper pack and the cute penguins from the Penguin Party stamp set and dies. Inside, I also used one of the sentiments from the Holiday Greetings stamps and dies.

To make this gingerbread house, I cut the elements from the vibrant and coordinating paper from the Joyful Holiday Paper pack and Neenah 80lb. Classic Crest Solar White cardstock for the white elements. I also used a blue-violet color cardstock for the window insets and green and pink for the peppermints, too.  To make the white card base, I scored an 8-1/2″ X 5-1/2″ piece of white cardstock and placed the largest house die on top of the folded cardstock, ensuring the top cutting line (i.e., the rooftop line) was above the folded edge. This keeps the fold line intact and creates a scored card base.

In addition to adding the many cute accent elements from the gingerbread die set, I also applied Pearl Pen (similar to Nuvo Drops) to add red, glossy candies around the roof line and on the bottom. Next, I stamped and colored a cute penguin using the Penguin Party stamp set and dies. I colored the penguin using Copic Sketch markers in 100, C7, C5, C3, C1, YR68, YR09, RV09, RV55 and YG03. I added a garland of red candies between the penguin’s hands, too. I used a white gel pen to add extra “fluff” to the penguin’s Santa hat.

Inside the card, I added an outline of the pink confetti paper (cut out using the two different sizes of house outlines in the die set), two more penguins and a script phrase using the Holiday Greetings stamps and dies. I used blue ink for the script. Using my Copic markers, I added tiny confetti dots of color around the sentiment and penguins to match the pink pattern paper. I kept them tiny so that they would not bleed through the white paper. I used the following Copic Sketch markers to color the penguins: 100, C7, C5, C3, C1, YR68, YR09, RV09, RV55, RV02, R29, and YG03.
