30 Days of Christmas Cards Day 21

Another fun card featuring Festival of Trees and Seasonal Snapshot 2015. I was just about to glue this card down but realized I was missing a few elements. I quickly embossed the strip of Mossy Meadow to give the card some texture. Lastly, I added the tree silhouettes to the circle sentiment to help fill the white space. Perfect!

Grateful Animals

Today's card is featured over at Stylin' Stampin' Inkspiration and features a trio of grateful animals. I love the Thankful Forrest Friends stamp set. I wanted to make a cute little gratitude parade. At the final second before running the Olive piece through the Big Shot, I added a strip of Blackberry Bliss washi tape. I think that little finished touch makes all the difference.

SSINKCS27: Repeated Olive

Today’s card is featured over at Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration and features a fun card sketch challenge today.

I went with my favorite color combination of green and purple. This time I went with Old Olive and Blackberry Bliss. I layered some of the Into the Woods DSP to play off the repeated Old Olive color. The purple comes in with the stamp and washi tape. A nice clean combination. Overall I went with a less is more approach for this card and I love it!

SSINKCC27: Cherry Cobbler, Blackberry Bliss, Old Olive

Today's card is featured over at Stylin' Stampin' Inkspiration and features a fun color challenge:

I adore these colors together. I decided to keep my card in the fall/Thanksgiving arena instead of Christmas. Although now I have a ton of Christmas designs using these colors floating around my head. I saw a few cute grid cards online and decided to make my own featuring some great DSP and stamped images. (Note: the purple vines from Into the Woods are technically Rich Razzleberry, but I love their slightly muted look in the card combination. I kept them there but made sure to add my Blackberry Bliss in card stock and stamped images.)

Winter Wonderland Vellum

Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a card using the new Winter Wonderland Vellum featured in the Holiday Catalog.

The vellum is so pretty! I had a hard time actually breaking open the package and cut down the sheets. But I did it! And I made a pretty card to go with it! I kept the card simple with the vellum as the focus. The gold stripes are so pretty!

Stamps: Six Sayings; Thankful Forrest Friends

Holiday CASE

Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to CASE (Copy and Share Everything) from the Holiday Catalog. I went back and forth for awhile, but finally decided on this card from the Into the Woods suite.

I loved the little fox card, but it was a bit plain for my tastes. I decided to jazz is up a bit and use more color! The card below is what I ended up with. I love all the colors in the card (hint: use markers!). But my favorite is the sweet little fox. Arthur was also super excited about the fox. I had to stamp him one on another piece of paper so he could carry it around the house. After assembling the layers, I realized it needed an embellishment of some kind... Into the Woods Elements to the rescue. Perfect!
