Christmas card

 Time to start showing the Christmas cards I have made this year.  I had

a lot from last year events and kits so I did not have to make many,  my

stash is all used up now so I've ordered a few new things to

start on next year!!

I used the poinsettia from a pillow box die set I have,

it is hidden on my crafting table at the moment, I

can add the company when I find it.  The Noel is

Tim Holtz and the gold leaves are Fiddly Leaves

by Simon Says Stamp (one of my most used dies).

I made a few  versions of this card, all a bit 

different.

JDS-New Year

  It's mid month at the monthly challenge at Jan's Digi Stamps.

 

 This New Year set is a new release.  I cut it on my

Scan N Cut and cut an extra had and horn for dimension.

Colored with Copics.  For the background I use a 

stencil that has been in my stash but not used yet, Warp Speed

by Altenew-it will be seeing a lot of ink now! Sentiment and its

layer are die cut.

Some sad and happy news.  The owners of Jan's Digi

Stamps are retiring.  We will miss their beautiful

digi's.  You may want to stock up with the current sale.

Jan's Etsy shop will remain open.

Halloween

 

 Looks like a simple card but take it into the dark and

the ghosts glow.  Note easy to capture on camera

but you get the idea below:

I did not have a ghost die so I used part of a penguin

die from Spellbinders and cut the feet off.  I used

Wow glow in the dark embossing powder on the

ghosts.

JDS-Harvest Blessings

  It's mid month at the monthly challenge at Jan's Digi Stamps.

 

 Harvest Blessings had some beautiful images but this "bless

your home and family" image struck me.  I printed it on

vellum and white card stock, coloring  on the card stock

one.  Die cut both after gluing together with a circle 

die and cut some leaves with Simon Says Stamp

Fiddly Leaves.  The background is a jelly plate paper

I had in my stash from a previous play.

Snippet card

 This is my second post today.

Dry embossed panel I cut my snippet from:

I got this darling set from a friend of mine for no reason.  I have seen a

lot of darling cards made with it, and I just had to make her a thank 

you card with it.  I had a scrap (snippet) of an inked dry 

embossed panel that I did not like but thought would make a

good die cut chair.
