Mosaic Christmas


Hi Stamping Friends.  My technique club typically makes three cards.  Here is the third one.  The technique is called Mosaic.  This one is sooooo much prettier in real life....full of so much glitter and sparkle.  The colors are Smokey Slate, Black, Champagne, Red, Silver glitter paper.  The sentiment is from More Merry Wishes, die cut using the Apothecary framelit.

Epson Salt Snow Day

Hi Stamping Friends.  It's that time of the month again for Technique Club.  The technique on this card is called Epson Salt Wash.  It's a little difficult to see it, but the left side of the card is shiny and spotty in places.  In real life, it is very pretty.

The colors are Pacific Point and Whisper White.  The stamp set is Snow Day (Wood #131892, Clear 131895).  The paper doily just adds a fun touch the the already whimsical look.

Gently Falling


Hi Stamping Friends.  I love fall and all the beautiful colors of fall.  But it's also fun to change up the colors a bit.  The colors for this card are Early Espresso, Crumb Cake, Crushed Curry, and the "non-fall" color Soft Sky.  The stamp set is Gently Falling.  The maple leaf is die cut using the Autumn Accents Bigz Die.

Christmas Star


Hi Stamping Friends.  Christmas is coming!!!  Lots of craft fairs starting up and the stores are already filled with Christmas decorations.  So, I thought I'd join the bandwagon!  Here is one of the Christmas cards we made in our recent stamp-a-stack event.

The star is actually a bit 3-D.  It is a CASE from Mary Brown.  The colors are Whisper White, Silver Foil Sheet, and Elegant Eggplant (embossed with the Stylish Stripes Textured Impressions™ Embossing Folder #132174).  The star is from the single stamp called Christmas Star #134813, which was embossed using silver embossing powder, then cut out and scored on the white lines to give the 3-D look.
