Tis the Season to be Jolly Card

Hello!

I was honored and excited that my card was chosen for the Creative Scrapbooker Magazine's November Card of the Month! I am hoping to make it to the second round of voting! We will have to wait and see!  This card was such a fun one to create! I used one of my favorite products in the October-December catalog! Love Z8053 Holly Embossing Folder + Stencil! This fun bundle is perfect for embossing and stenciling the embossed area! You will have hours of fun using this product! 

I colored the tree by creating a stencil. I cutout the tree using thin cuts. After you stamped it in intense black ink, take the stencil and place it over the tree. Take a sponge dauber and sponge ink all over tree with sage ink, then sponge and shade branches with pine ink. Add Carnation Red liquid pearls dots to each tree light. I glued a black star die to the top of tree, adding some black diamond stickles glitter glue to each black star. Love the extra sparkle it gives those stars! I did add a few more black stars and small stickle dots around the tree too!

Here's instructions to color your tree: 

I created my own stencil by cutting the tree out using the tree thin cuts and a die-cutting machine. Leave a space around the stencil for sponging. 

I took my stencil and placed it over the top of another tree that was cutout from the tree thin cut. 

First, sponge sage ink all over tree and darken the areas between the branches. Take the pine ink pad and sponge underneath the branches to give it a more shaded look. 

Here's what it should like. So cute, right?! ;)

Here's another angle of the scalloped circle and tree. The circle was lightly sponged with pine ink using a sponge dauber. 

Here's the shopping list:

Hello Maple Leaf Card

Hello Crafty Friends!

I am excited to share another fun autumn card with you! This one if a favorite! I love the open thin cut maple leaf and that gorgeous dark woodgrain paper! I cut my paprika cardstock @ 4" x 5 1/4" and Crisp Air paper @ 3 3/4" x 5". To create this card, I centered my maple leaf thin cut on the paper and used washi tape to hold it down and ran it through my die-cutting machine. I pulled the thin cut out and left the opening on my paper. I adhered 3-D foam tape to the B&T paper and attached it to the paprika cardstock. I glued this to my card base. I cut out a hello tag thin cut and stamped it in Toffee ink. I used a strip of the Mocha cardstock on the bottom and glued a strip of pine green zip strip to the Mocha. I glued this to the bottom, leaving a 1/2" from the bottom of card. I adhered two Crisp Air Dots to the bottom left of card and a small heart above the "Hello" sentiment. I glued a piece of ribbon to the tag. 

Shopping list: 

Crisp Air paper (this paper is retired) NOTE: You could easily change the paper and use the Four Seasons B&T paper instead!

X8036B Four Seasons B&T paper 

D2106 Crisp Air- Cardmaking 

Z8043 Maple Leaf thin cuts

Crisp Air Hello Card

 

Happy Fall, Friends! 

I hope you're enjoying all the fall feels this time of year! This is my favorite season! Our beautiful mountains here in Utah are turning colors because of our cooler temperatures! Can't wait to take a drive up the canyon to see all these gorgeous colors! 

This card reminds me of all the fall feels! I loved the cute "Hello" sentiment stamp on this card! It totally works for this type of card! I did add a touch of gold stickles on the top of the acorns to give it a little autumn sparkle! This card is so much fun to make! I hope it inspires you! :)

Fa-BOO-lous Mini Treat Holders

Hello Crafty Friends!

I am so glad to be back! I have been dealing with shoulder pain since March of 2022. My doctor told me it's probably from cutting paper out for 28 years! That can certainly wear your shoulder out! I am taking things slow, so I can heal and get back to my love of paper crafting! I am excited to share these adorable treat holders with you! I LOVE Halloween and I am always looking to create a cute treat holder every year for my friends, customers, grandkids, and family! These did not disappoint! These were inspired from Pinterest, but I created my own design and special touch to each holder. 

These cute holders are so fun and easy to create! Just slip a mini candy bar, small bag of candy, or Ghirardelli chocolate inside! The recipient will love getting one of these little cuties! ;)
