Here Comes Santa

Santa Air Drop from Stampendous is  a great full panel image for your cards.  This is colored with pencils then sprinkled with Blue Encrusted Jewels.  The sentiment is Holly Bird Perfectly Clear Set and I love that the words are separate so you can stamp them in different colors.

Hope my U.S. friends had a nice Thanksgiving!  Today I will be out enjoying Black Friday, fun, fun, fun!  Be sure to stop by next week for another Christmas card :)

Pretty Pointsettias

(Yes I know Poinsettia is spelled wrong in my title but I can't change it or it will mess up my link...sorry guys)

These big Poinsettias by Stampendous are perfect to fill a card.  The music was stamped first then the Poinsettias were embossed with gold and watercolored with Adirondack Inks which is a dye ink and it worked out perfectly.  I was afraid the music would smear since it's also a dye ink but it didn't, yay!  Glitter was added to the center for just a touch of bling.

Stampendous is sold out of this popular stamp but if you would like to get it, it is available at Stamplistic.

This Poinsettia was colored with watercolor pencils with a very similar effect.  Since the image is embossed I took the color off the pencil with a wet brush rather and coloring directly on the paper since I didn't want the embossing to chip off.

Christmas Card Time

This is my favorite time of the year for card making!  Lots of gold, glitter and beautiful colors, so to start off this season I'm sharing a card featuring new stamps from Stampendous.

This Gifts Kiddo is colored with pencils with glitter glue on the hat and cuffs and Dot Sparklers on the shoes, collar and the upper corners of the card.  Winter Snow is stamped on the cream panel with Gold and Copper Brilliance.  Then for the 3 snow flakes, I used a punch with Fran's Sticky Panels (a clear double sided adhesive sheet), placed them on the card and embossed with Shabby White powder. To glue everything down I used Beacon 3 in 1 Glue, its fast drying.

Burglar Kiddo

Here is my last Halloween post for the year.  I stamped the cute little Burglar Kiddo from Stampendous, colored him with pencils and applied orange Micro Glitter to the hat, mask, shoes and flashlight. 

The sentiment is from the Haunting Background, it's a large background stamp but I only inked up the portions I wanted with a Versamark pen.

Then stamped it.

And embossed with Carnelian powder.

The corners of the card are stamped with the web from the Halloween Charms set and a couple of little plastic confetti spiders are glued to the webs.

Here in Oklahoma the leaves are starting to change and they are beautiful!  We have been here for almost two years, from California so it is still new and exciting to us.  I was actually able to get my son Greg to sit for a picture with the tree of changing leaves behind him...it only took a little begging haha.

Have a Happy Halloween tomorrow!

Halloween Time!!

This owl is so cute, I thought googly eyes would be perfect on him!  Take a look at the sentiment, I used it yesterday on a card but just the "Happy Halloween" and today I used the whole stamp.  It's a great way to get a lot of different uses out of your sentiment stamps.

1.   Stamp Wicked Owl on white paper with black ink, color with watercolor pencils and cut out.

2.   Apply Orange Micro Glitter to the band on the hat and Lavender Micro Glitter to the broom stick.

3.   Cut out and glue on googly eyes.

4.   Stamp Witching You on yellow paper with VersaMark ink and emboss with black powder that has been mixed with Multi Ultra Fine Crystal Glitter.

5.   Sponge edges with butterscotch ink and layer on black paper.

6.  Use and embossing folder to emboss a spider web on orange paper, tie with ribbon and glue to a back card.

7.  Mount Witching You and layer Owl on yellow and black circles.
