Retro Ornaments Cards with Ashley and Mayra

Hello friends! It's Ashley with a new Christmas card featuring the layering set Retro Ornaments! I couldn't resist trying them out with some bright, less traditional colors! I combined them with the Christmas Garland Frame from last year and am loving the result!

I started by stamping the ornaments from Retro Ornaments in a variety of colors using Pinkfresh Studio inks. I love that these inks are in the Sunny Studio shop! They come in four color sets that make layered stamping a breeze! I used a Quickie Glue pen to emboss some silver glitter details on each ornament, then cut them out with the matching dies.

I blended some light blue inks from Pinkfresh Studio onto white cardstock and splattered it with a bit of silver watercolor, making it heavy on the blue area. I stamped the ornament strings in gray, then added a white Christmas Garland Frame. I added the ornaments to the card with foam tape for a bit of dimension. For my sentiment, I die cut the "Merry Christmas" from Christmas Garland Frame once from silver glitter cardstock and twice from white cardstock. I glued the layers together then added it to my card. I finished with a few White Pearls and some blues from Rainbow Pearls for a little extra something.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Have a wonderful day!

Hello everyone, Mayra here with you today. Can you believe it is the last day of November?! Have you been working on your Christmas cards? I have been, and I am enjoying the different designs. I will have a variety to choose from when giving them out.

For my card today, I used the lovely Retro Ornaments stamp set, along with the beautiful Classy Christmas and Season's Greetings stamps. I began by stamping the ornaments I would be using from the set onto plain white cardstock using Ranger Archival Ink in Carnation Red. After allowing the ink to dry I heat embossed the ornament holder using silver embossing powder. 

I decided to add a bit more dimension to each of the ornaments by going over the inked areas with Copic markers. I used R59, R46, R17, and R05. I also used Copic markers to color in the images from the Classy Christmas set. Next, I stamped the sentiment from the Season's Greetings stamp set using black ink. I then assembled my card. I used the Slimline Scalloped Frame dies set for the base of my card.  

I hope you enjoy the card I created to share with you. Thank you very much for taking the time to stop by. I hope you each have a blessed and wonderful day.

Christmas Cookies Gingerbread Men Cards with Mendi

Hi there!  I hope you have been enjoying a wonderful holiday weekend. I couldn't let the week pass without joining in the fun and sharing a couple cards of my own using the Christmas Cookies mini stamps and dies that you can receive free with purchase through tomorrow. 

For my first card I pulled out our Background Basics Stamps to create my red gingham borders. To add a little trim to my edge, I added the gumdrop borders, stamping them twice for both the top and bottom using our Jolly Gingerbread Stamps. I then used that same set to stamp my house with my tree cookies, inking up behind them with some Evergreen Bough distress ink using my favorite Jumbo Dauber. 

I finished my card by adding some white highlights with a Sharpie White Extra Fine Paint Pen and stamping my sentiment with VersaMark ink before heat embossing it with Hero Arts detail white embossing powder (linked below).

For my next card using the Christmas Cookies Stamps. I wanted to make my card base mimic the feel of a gingerbread cookie with white scalloped icing so I cut my background from some kraft cardstock which I die-cut using our Window Quad Circle Dies. To create scalloped decorative edge I used three separate dies from our Slimline Basic Border Dies set. I backed my gingerbread men with a piece of pink snowflake print paper from our Holiday Cheer Paper pack, once again adding white highlights with my Sharpie white paint pen.

Thank you so much for all your sweet support of our company this holiday season. I truly hope I was able to inspire you in your holiday cardmaking endeavors today.  :)
