Fast and Fabulous dots

I made this card as a thank you for my secret pal at the PRBC stamping retreat the weekend before Thanksgiving.  The colors are Very Vanilla, Pink Pirouette, and Cherry Cobbler. 

I adhered all but the stamped layer and then used the Big Shot and the Perfect Polka Dots impressions folder.  The image is colored in with blender pens and then a little extra color on top with markers.  The stamp set is the hostess set Fast and Fabulous.

Bubbles and Glitter

This week at Late Night Stampers, we have a challenge to use only White, Blue and Silver on a card.  On this one, I altered my glossy white card stock with bubbles and reinkers and then added a silver embossed image called Extreme Snowboard.  Then tore some whisper white card stock and added it to look like layers of snow.  On the edges I added crystal effects and White Chunky Glitter and then heated it up, partly to dry it and partly to pop it up a little. 

The sentiment is from the Friends Rock Stamp set and on the Marina Mist base, I spritzed some Platinum shimmer paint (mixed with alcohol).  The layer behind the glossy white card stock is Pacific Point.

 Here is a closer look at the snow.

Tags, Tags and more tags!

I love playing with the Two Tags die and the Top Note die for gift tags!  Here are some examples of what I have come up with this year.

Cork Friends Never Fade

I used a sketch from the Diva Coffee Break Designs blog for this card. 

The middle portion of the card cork that I stamped on with Basic Black classic ink and then added basic pearls as accents.  The designer series paper is Love Letter and the other colors are Riding Hood Red, and Basic Black.

Blue dasher

Another one of Mary Jo's sketches in combination with Just Add Ink's  "just add critters challenge for this card.   

I used Not quite Navy, Pacific Point and Whisper White card stock, Blueberry Crisp Designer Series paper and the Dasher stamp set.  There is glass glitter on the antlers adhered with Crystal Effects and a library clip and silver brads along with some retired silver ribbon. 

Photo Corners

My technique challenge on Soul Scrappers right now is Photo corners.  I thought it would be something simple enough that even though everyone is busy with the holidays there would be time to play!

 This page has three different types of photo corners, the one on the left uses the photo corners punch; the one below uses basic pearls; and the bottom one is made with ribbon and brads.

The possibilities are endless as to what you can use for photo corners! 

Stamp Camp projects

 We had a great time at our Stamp Camp last weekend and I wanted to share our projects!  The first one is is a gift card holder made with the tins that are on our Clearance rack right now. 

 There are pockets on each side on the inside and a tag as well.  We did two different versions, one with the Jolly Holiday designer series paper and the other with the Candy Cane specialty paper.

Sarah's  project was a pin made with ribbon and a brad and we used crystal effects to glue a pin fastener to the back.  Then we added some cute packaging.

This what the back of the pin would look like.

Lisa had a super cute card made with the Punch Pals and Cute Christmas stamp sets.  We added some glitter for the snow under the snowman as well.
