Noah

It's a rainy Tuesday here in Bolton, ON....perfect day for staying inside and getting some crafting done.  So glad you could pop by to see today's card.  This is sweet image is called Noah.

So I'm not gonna lie...I was going for a certain look for Noah's dress and I had to use E55...that marker & I are not friends...just sayin'!  But I think it turned out okay and I might just use it on some other things I have planned.  It's rare that I get a chance to use gold so I took advantage with this card.  I added some gold organza ribbon with some glittery gold enamel dots.

Sleigh Ride From Santa!

Welcome!

I haven't made a side step card in forever! When I saw this adorable image called "Reindeer Games" from High Hopes Rubber Stamps, I knew it would be perfect for a step card! Way to go Rudolph....finally Santa is pulling you for a change!

I used my Silhouette to cut out the card base and layers from an SVG file. Super easy as you don't have to think LOL, it's all done and cut for you. Just fold the card and glue on the papers and voila it's done!

I created a cute little scene for Santa to pull Rudolph on. The Birch Trees with cardinals is from Impression Obsession and the other trees on the "steps" are a Magnolia Doohickey Christmas Tree die. I added some Stampendous "Spoonful of Snow" to the trees and bottom of my coloured image. A bit of Crystal Stickles on Santa's fur added to the glitter on this card. The sentiment is from High Hopes and is called "Bold Merry Christmas".

I popped up the image and trees with some foam tape for a bit of added dimension. My paper today is from The Paper Studios Woodland Wonderland 6x6 collection. (I got it at Hobby Lobby).

Copics Used:

Skin: E00, E21, E11, R29

Hair & Beard: C1, C3, C4

Santa's Boots: C5, C6, C8

Reds: R35, R37, R39

Reindeer: E33, E35, E37, R01, W1, W3, W5

Round Snowman Ornament

Howdy - MichelleO here - Decorating a Christmas Card with a fun "Round Snowman Ornament" from High Hopes Stamps. 

I colored the ornament with my Copics (colors below) and then needed a "tree" to hang it on. I punched out a bunch of leaves from Martha Stewart and layered them up to create a branch. I found a small old piece of wire and bent it over the "limb". I layered it on a scrap piece of Graphic 45 paper and then used the High Hopes Stamps "Warm Winter Wishes" on a banner across the bottom. Now the ornament needed more sparkle... so I used some Viva Decor on the top and bottom and POP! some real bling on this ornament!!

Here Comes Santa Clause

Happy Sunday!

Precious Nativity!

Good morning friends,

Today I'm going to share with you another stunning stamp called "Precious Nativity" and "Away In The Manger" from Highhopesstamps.com.  

Because this is such a special image, I wanted to keep this card design really simple to show off how beautiful it's. I stamped image with alcohol marker and cut it with a stitched square die. Add some details with a Gelly white pen, also distress the edges with some distress ink. Cut a second square using black glitter cardstock. For my third panel I used 12X12 paper pad called "Christmas Plaids" from Craftsmart. Not a lot of embellishments right!  

Image is colored with Copics;
skin E000 E51
Joseph B93 B95 B99 E23 E25
Mary R27 R29 R59 C9
Baby Jesus YG95 YG97
donkey W3 W5 C1 C7 C9
sheep C1
barn E23 E25
hay E31 E33

Here is a close up!

To finish I stamped the sentiment with Memento ink and distress the edges.
