Woodland Deer (Memory Box)

Greetings everyone, and thank you all who are visiting my blog and have left comments, you know how much I enjoy reading them.  I thought todays card would be fun for the holiday season.  Maybe even fall into a masculine or outdoorsman category which I still find hard to create cards for. The good things about this card is you only have to use White cardstock and some type of patterned paper.

I used a bit of mounting tape to the back of the lower snow mound and then added the deer (buck) and branch,  Then attached the second snow mound and trimmed off the antlers to create a doe.  I used Sakura lacquer and glitter on the birch trees and tucked them behind the snow mount.  To complete the design I added the Frostyville Border with glitter to the top.  This would work for a fun masculine design.

Greetings Fellow Crafters

Today’s card is quick and easy to make.  First I die cut the Poppystamp Bubble Ornament die and Zig Zag Knit then used the cling stamp Let It Snow above the ornament.  I attached some patterned scrap piece of cardstock for the back and then pretty red rhinestone to complete the card.

Hello Everyone, followers and visitors alike and I hope you are all well..

We are having very cold and frosty weather. I am still trying to rake leaves but the ground is so frozen it is impossible.  Chance of snow and also ice which is always horrible. 

Thank you to everyone who visited and left comments on my last card, it is always fun to read them and I very much appreciate you stopping by.

Super simple Holiday card design.  I just die cut the Frostyville Border for the top using white cardstock.  Then die cut the Opulent Ovals for the center and added the Glowing Candles with a few red berries

Greetings Fellow Crafters

Have I got a fun Holiday card for you.   It has been a while since I pulled out the Madison House Set die.  I coated the roof with glitter to make it stand out against the house.  For the background of the house I embossed with a brick pattern.  Then I added a fun patterned paper behind each window and attached pieces of the Sparkling Tree Lights over each window and door.  I crimped the snow bank and added some punched pinwheels and a Picket Fence.  Then tucked a Berry Sprig tree behind the fence and attached the Santa’s Magic Sleigh and Woodland Fawn to complete the top of roof.

Greetings Fellow Crafters:

My card today uses the beautiful Poppystamp Crochet Corner, Carolina Birdhouse, Small Pine Branch, Small Garden Sprig, Peaceful Bird and Petit Four Border.  I die cut enough sprigs to cover the branch and added some liquid snow and a bright red bird.  For the birdhouse add a little liquid snow, a fun bow and a few sprigs. Finish with snow snowflakes, and use the shadow effect for the Petit Four Border.

Keeping in Shape

I admit I really took liberties with these dies to create this card.

First I die cut the Memory Box Gentleman Leaping with a flesh colored cardstock so I could use the body, head, hands and legs.  Then I die cut the Cheery Lynn Designs Santa's Laundry in red and in white cardstock and attached all the pieces to the body, added the head, hands and black boots. 

For the bike I used Memory Box Brand New Bicycle in brown cardstock and added some fun center spokes.  I paper crimped the Papertrey Ink - In the Meadow Die Collection (set of 2) for the snowdrift.

For the top of card I used the Spellbinders Borderabilities A2 Bracket Border One and added Memory Box Jolly Jingle Bells and star.  The background is Darice Snowflake embossing folder and to complete I added some stickers.

Season's Greetings

Hello to all my Blogging Friends,

We had a strong wind storm last weekend and I am convinced every leaf in the neighbor landed in my yard.  I have been raking leaves for days with no end in site. 

Todays card may look difficult but really it was just using the Spellbinder A2 Matting Basic and then gluing the Opulent Oval in the center of the card with a smaller gold cardstock piece and then adding the beautiful Gentle Leaves in glitter green and ivory cardstock.  Then I wanted a little more dimension for the flowers so I die cut the Fabulous Phlox and attached the Poinsettias on top then dotted them with some Yellow Glitter Glue.

Santa's Laundry

Greetings everyone, while surfing the web the other day I came across this new holiday die by Cheery Lynn, called Santa's Laundry.  I just thought it was too cut.  They also have a Witch's Laundry die that I ordered a while back.

While looking through my embossing folders I found I actually had one with a snowflake pattern so thought it would be fun for the background.  Then I added a few red rhinestones, some Birch trees, the laundry and the deer.  I hope you enjoy the design.

For the center of the card I used the Spellbinder Grand Labels Four and then embossed the red cardstock with a fun Polka Dot pattern. The pretty trees are Memory Box  Frosted Christmas Tree which I outlined with Sakura 3D Crystal Lacquer and glitter.   I really think the Memory Box Penguin die is so cute so I added a fun red Martha Stewart bow to them.  The top of card is Martha Stewart Snowflake punch.

Snow Capped Birdhouse (Poppystamp Design Team)

Greetings Fellow Crafters:

I embossed the white cardstock with a fun Stripe pattern and the red with a Polka Dot. The blue strip was created from a punch.  I used the new Poppystamp Carolina Birdhouse, Peaceful Bird and Small Garden Sprig and framed them in the center of the card.  For the sentiment I stamped the Jasper Ornament Background die with the cling stamp Let It Snow and added some pretty red rhinestones.  To complete design attach a Small Blooming Poinsettia and liquid snow.

Super easy to make, just emboss the background and arrange die cuts as shown.  I used two different shades of the orange cardstock.  I left the planter box blank but it would make a great place to add sentiment.

Poinsettia Delight

Here is another way to create a card using the Marianne Design Embossing Folder.  I embossed the white cardstock then used the Spellbinder Oval (3 x 2¼″) in the center to create an opening.  I used the ( 3¾ x 2¾″ & 3 x 2¼″)  ovals together to create the oval ring.  Then die cut white cardstock with the lattice and take the large oval and run the lattice through the die cut machine and attach the cut oval shaped lattice piece behind the opening.  Next die cut a large and two small Poinsettia flowers and the green Holy Vine.  Add the vine across the center of opening, then the flowers as shown.  Dot yellow stickles glitter glue to centers.

Happy Holiday

Greetings everyone, I haven't used this folder in a long time.  I have always liked the embossed pattern but found it hard to design a card around it.  So I thought why not just add a few flowers and call it good.
