Our theme for Day 12 of the #30DayChristmasCardMakingChallenge is Christmas Past. I’ve created a vintage card with the Tailor Made Tags Dies. I’ve created a gift tag which you can use on it’s own or add it to a card which I’ve done here. Some ink blending with Early Espresso and Mint Macaron inks adds…
It’s Something White for Day 11 of the #30DayChristmasCardMakingChallenge. This means the predeminant colour of the card has to be white. I love having white space in a card and really enjoyed creating this using a very simple design. I’ve added a little bit of Balmy Blue and Gray Granite to this card. I embossed…
I love unusual colour schemes for Christmas and this was definitely something a little bit different for our #30DayChristmasCardMakingChallenge. These can be tricky but that’s the point of a challenge. I chose Polished Pink candy canes to start my card off. The candy canes were fussy cut and layered on die cut candy canes from…
I’m playing along with the Colour Inkspirations Challenge CI132. With the accompanying photo, it was hard not to go along with the beachy theme. Instead I went with what seems to be my next favourite, the bird from the Perched in a Tree stamp set. I heat embossed the image in Silver and then coloured…
With 11 shades of Green in the Stampin’ Up! colour range, creating ‘Something Green’ for the #30DayChristmasCardmakingChallenge was quite easy. I went for the obvious choice – leaves from the Leaves of Holly bundle. This is a two-step stamp set however I’ve been using the detail stamp on it’s own. I love how effective it…
We’ve got a lovely festive colour palette for today’s #30DayChristmasCardMakingChallenge. As soon as I saw Crumb Cake, my mind went to the Peaceful Deer stamp set. To create my card I embossed a panel of Evening Evergreen Cardstock and then blended Evening Evergreen ink at the bottom of the panel to add more depth. This…
There are many ideas for warm and cosy which is Day 3 of the #30DayChristmasCardMakingChallenge. There are also quite a number of stamp sets in the Stampin’ Up! mini catalogue that would fit this theme. Unfortunately, I don’t have any of these! So, this was definitely a challenge for me and I set about to…
We’re In the Snow for Day 2 of the #30DayChristmasCardMakingChallenge. I’ve skirted around the theme with products having the word ‘snow’ in it’s name! If you haven’t got some of the Snowflake Specialty Vellum you must get yourself some! It is beautiful. I love that you get the White Vellum Sheets, which is what I’ve…
I’ve chosen a more modern colour palette for Day 21 of my Sketchtember Challenge pairing 2 of our cutest stamp sets – Penguin Place and Christmas Scottie. This is one of my favourite sketches with the offset rectangles being so forgiving – no need to worry about straight pieces or gluing askew and it works…
