Hi Crafty Friends,
The card design today does not have the usual color scheme for a Holiday card… but it is still one of my favorites. It might be that I love black and the contrast. In any event, I couldn’t resist making this color combination.
Besides the black, red and white, I love Pinkfresh’s Squirrel Friends stamp and die set. These squirrels are so cute! The other great thing is that I think you could use them year ’round. I am eager to see them in a forest meadow scene.
Hi there,
We are sooooo excited to show off our new Alexandra Renke dies. There are three fabulous stars, though we are only using two for this project, and adorable Christmas icons like a gingerbread man and candy cane. The card is simple to make but the beautiful dies and paper from Alexandra Renke create an elegant design when finished!
As an extra bonus, these dies make wonderful ‘bows’ for gifts. Check out the image below.
HI Crafty Friends,
The winter is upon us and what better way to celebrate than with snowflakes. These big, beautiful snowflakes are from the Concord & 9th Snow Flurry stamp and die set. With a little embossing and spritzing, it creates a wonderful wintery effect!
Hi there,
Today’s card design is a beautiful full blossom poinsettia bouquet. Not too long ago we featured a poinsettia (click here) using a My Favorite Things poinsettia die set. There are many poinsettia die sets that are worthy of mention and would work swimmingly, but for today’s poinsettia, the Blooming Poinsettia by Poppystamps was our choice.
Hi Crafty Friends,
Today’s card design is a big, beautiful ornament that is sure to bring a smile to any holiday recipient. It is made using the Concord & 9th Ornamental dies and a few vibrant alcohol ink colors. The ornament die has wonderful cut-outs to enhance the design and makes it a natural for a shaker.
Hi Crafty Friends,
Today’s card design is a bright and cheery winter scene, complete with the quintessential snowman and ice pond. The big sky sets the stage for the wintery look and the trees and village add to this Jolly Holiday scene.
Oh, what fun I had using all Penny Black dies to make this card. Let’s get started.
Hi Everyone,
There are so many wonderful themes for holiday cards that it gets my creative juices going into hyper-drive! Poinsettias are one of my favorite icons of the holiday season so making them are a natural!
Over the next few days, you will see a few of them since there are several great poinsettias die sets available. In this card design, I have used the My Favorite Things Perfect Poinsettia Die-namics. It creates a very large blossom with vein embossed leaves as an extra bonus.
Hi Everyone,
Today we are sharing a card design using the new Alexandra Renke Panorama Sleigh die. It has a lovely one-horse open sleigh so you can pretend you are gliding along the snowy ground. It would also be great in a city scene too.
The inks and paper used give a shimmery look to the card. My only regret is that pictures and the video below do not do the beautiful sheen justice. Click on the video below to see all the steps to making this classic cards.
