Today’s card is being featured at my April Coloring Class. I adore the Just Add Color DSP, but couldn't figure out how exactly to showcase the fun images. Thankfully the Stampin' Blends came at just the right time for me to have a bit of fun coloring these cute houses.
I made this card way back in November, but I thought it was weird to post during the height of Christmas cards. So I kept it in reserve until now. How cute is this little fox? This is one of those stamp sets that I keep forgetting that I own. Why do I do that? I love this little stamp set. For this card, I stamped, punched, and assembled this cute little fox. From there, I picked a trio of paper patterns and added some texture with the snowflakes and embossing folder. I finished off the card with a sentiment and some pretty metallic washi tape.
For this card, I CASEd this great card from Linda Dalke. I wouldn't have thought about combining silver, black, and red, but I love the effect! It's hard to see in my picture, but the sentiment is wonderfully shiny as it's been heat embossed in silver. I'm in love with the beautiful metallic washi tape including in the Year of Cheer Washi Tape pack. You receive a thin strip of silver, gold, and copper, plus two great pattern rolls. This pack of washi tape will not last through the Christmas season, I've been using them on everything!
For today's card, I pulled out my new Smitten Mittens bundle. After perusing the Holiday Catalog, I just knew i had to have these cut little mittens! My favorite part is the die that creates these cute cut-out mittens. For this card, I started with my Winter Wonder Embossing Folder and the mittens. From there, I decided to accent my card with metallics. Thank goodness I bought the Year of Cheer Washi Tape. The three skinny solid metallic rolls were perfect to create a fun shiny embellishment. I went even further by layering my white piece on top of a some copper foil. In person, this card is oh so shiny!
A small order from September's stamp club. I grabbed the adorable Smitten Mittens bundle, Winter Wonder Embossing Folder, Night of Navy CS, and the Year of Cheer Washi Tape.
