Merry Christmas

Hello everyone!

It's Donna here again with CottageCutz  and Peachy Keen Stamps to celebrate their new release of face stamps that work well with the CottageCutz Christmas ornament dies. TWO NEW SIZES of Face Stamps have been added to their release, 1 5/8" and 1 7/8" to fit the super fun ornaments by CottageCutz. Please stop over at Peachy Keen Stamps because Kathy is offering some promotional pricing on her new stamps sets that will go perfectly with the CottageCutz dies.

Here is my card using the Peachy Keen stamp sets Ornament 1 1/8" Face Set.  I am using the Cottagecutz Nested Ornaments: Star.  I am using the smallest star of the set.

Here is how I put my card together:

1. The card is an A2 card 4 1/4 x 5 1/2,
2. The black layer is 4 x 5,
3. The next layer is 3 7/8 x 4 7/8, I embossed the branches and added some wink of stella to give it some dimension,
4. The star ornament is die cut from the smallest die in the Nested Ornaments: Star set, 
5. I colored the  face with copics. I used YG13 for the eyes, YR68 for the nose, and R29 for the mouth.  The cheeks I used R00,  
6.  finished my card off by adding the sentiment by CottageCutz "Merry Christmas".

Closer look at the star ornament, I added some clear wink o stella around the edges.

 Closer look at the Merry Christmas sentiment.

Christmas Ornaments

Hello everyone,

It's Donna here with a couple of cards made with some of the new release Christmas dies!!!!  I am so excited about this release because I love to make Christmas cards.  I love the reason for the season, I love the colors, and  the snow (but I love summer the most), I'm not trying to rush Summer away. How about you, what is your favorite season?

My cards are clean and simple, but I love how they came out and I love the nontraditional colors I used.

Here is how I put them together:

1.  A2 card (4 1/4 x 5 1/2),
2.  Top layer measures 4 x 5 1/4,
3.  I die cut all three dies from the nested ornaments, Teardrops set,
4.  I die cut the snowflake from the Peppermint Latte set,
5.  glued the snowflake on the smallest ornament and added a rhinestone,
6.  I cut the tops of the ornament with silver glitter paper,
7.  I attached all the ornaments and snowflake using alternating colors,
8.  Embossed my sentiment with silver embossing powder,
9.  Attached the ornaments with silver lace and added them to the card.

I hope you are inspired!  Please stop by and join the challenge, this months theme is birthday.
