May Your Days be Merry & Bright

Hello there my crafty friends!  I selected a piece of pixied card from my background stash pile.  I used Midnight Blue and Purple Violet Pixie Powders on it then used a paint brush and blended the colours together.  I cut the Moonlight Sleigh Cover Plate out of black card.  I added custard card behind the windows in all the buildings.  I glued the Cover Plate die to the pixied background.  I cut the die a second time out of white card and nipped away the Santa, sleigh and reindeer and glued them on top of the black die cut.  I matted it with white and black mats, then added it to a larger piece of white card.  I cut the May Your Days Be Merry & Bright sentiment in black ,then added it to a white shadow backing die.  I added mounting foam to the back then attached it below the Cover Plate die.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 8"  x  8 1/4"  in size.

Tis The Season

Hello bloggers!  I embossed a piece of white card with the Falling Snow embossing folder.  Using the Round Corner Square dies, I cut a white frame and added it with mounting foam.  I cut the Pinwheel Snowflake out of Silver Sparkle card.  I cut the middle die from the set out of Brushed Silver card and layered it in top of the base die.  I cut the Tis The Season sentiment out of both white ad black card.  I used the black die cut as an offset shadow behind the white one and glued it to the middle of the die cut.  I added the Pinwheel Snowflake die to the middle of the frame with mounting foam.  Using the Stylish Poinsettia set, I made three white poinsettias and glittered them with Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz.  I added them in opposite corners and added white leaves as accents.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 3/4"  x  7 3/4"  in size.

Happy Birthday

Hello \crafters!  I started today's card by cutting the Floral Harmony Cover Plate twice.  I cut both of them with two pieces of white card.  The top piece of card cuts all the ways through and the bottom one is basically embossed with the design but the outside lines cut through.  I used Distress inks to colour the design on both of them, using Victorian Velvet, Fossilized Amber and Forest Moss.  I glued the other die cut on top of both of them, then added mounting foam to the backs and attached them together on another piece of white card.  I cut the Birthday  Shadowed Stacked Sentiment in black and added it to the join line of the two dies.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 3/4"  x  9 1/2"  in size.

Merry Christmas

Hi there my crafty friends!  I embossed a piece of white card with the Falling Snow embossing folder.  Next, I cut the Holly Ribbon Wave Border with a piece of black card on top of a piece of white card.  I glued the black die cut on top of the white embossed copy, then I cut the die again in green and used the fall away pieces and paper pieced them back into the design.  I did it again in red and used those fall away pieces and paper pieced them back into the design.  I glued the border across the card.  Using the Stylish Poinsettia, I made a red glittered poinsettia and added it to the left just above the border with two green leaves and accents.  I cut the Noble Merry Christmas sentiment in red and glued it to the top of the card.  The card was completed with white and red mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 3/4"  x  7"  in size.
