House

 I love this style of stamp but I'm never sure if I can do it justice. You'll have to be the judge.


I colored the house in copics and prisma color pencils. I chose the colors for the house because my daughter is residing her house and roof in these colors lol. although her house doesn't look too much like this cute cabin. I added two ribbons on the side.

Enjoy the blog hop.

Nativity

 Nativity

I really struggled with this card. I love nativity scenes but have so much trouble making one I like.


This stamps are from Unity's Blessed Baby. The images are stamped in gold and embossed with detail gold. The nativity is colored with copics. The ink blending is done with distress inks, marmalade and brushed corduroy. There are two ribbons coming down the side. One is an organza and the other is a linen ribbon Unity carried.

Keep Christmas in your heart and keep stamping.

Gnomes

 Gnomes


 I love gnomes and creating scenes. This card combines the two. The gnomes are from Unity's Gnome Matter What and colored with copics. The couch was paper pieced from a Unity paper. The picture is stamped in green and embossed with clear embossing powder. In the center dot and outer dots are Nuvo drops dragon scales. The stamp is from the November 2018 KOTM. The packages are from October 2020 KOTM. They were actually on the seat of a moped. I just cut off the moped. They are colored with Copics and a drop of Stickles on the star. The window is a die from Spellbinders. The black paper behind the window is splattered with white paint. The wood grain is from a Unity paper pack.

Keep a bit of whimsy in your heart this Christmas and keep stamping!

Poinsettia

Poinsettia 

I love poinsettias so this card was a natural. I stamped Tin Tile Background with VersaFine Clair Chianti and then embossed it using clear embossing powder. Next I smeared Adriondack Cranberry all over it. I stamped Paper Poinsettias with black. It took a few times of stamping over the embossed tin tile because it was embossed. Next the poinsettia was cut out. Glued the smaller one over the big one. I put sequins in the center. The leaves were stamped on a patterned paper. All stamps are from Unity.

Enjoy the season with all the color.

 Mitten

The mitten stamp is from the October 2021 KOTM and the snowflakes are from the September 2021 KOTM by Unity. The snowflakes are embossed with white diamond embossing powder.  Merry is from the Heart of Christmas coordinating die. There are three layers glued together. An organza ribbon is tied around the square layer before the mitten was mounted with foam tape.

Stay warm and keep stamping!

 Snowman Ornament


Unity has the cutest snowmen and this one is no exception. He is from the Love to my Heart. I cut off the penguin so he would fit in this ornament. He is colored with copics and has wink of stella to give him some sparkle. He is popped up on foam tape. The ornaments are from the Ornate Ornaments toner card front and foiled with denim decofoil. The trees in the background are done with Ornamental Pines stamp and stencil bundle. Merry is done with the Heart of Christmas die set by foiling the silver on the plain foil front and foiled with silver. The navy card topper has wink of stella added to it to give lots of sparkle. 

Hope you enjoy this card. It was lots of fun to create.

 I have been absent from the blogger world for a long time. I plan on changing that. I've still been creating though.  Right now I've been doing a lot of bee cards so let's get started.

Next year is my 50th class reunion - not possible - I'm only 25. lol I thought I would maybe volunteer to make the invitations. This card was created using a Tim Holtz honeycomb die. The bees are a stamp I have had forever. It's from Nestling. I have no idea whether that company even exists anymore. The 50th is cut out using my cricut. Hope to be back tomorrow with another creation.

If you have any questions about how I created these let me know.

Sweatshirt Girl

I'm waiting for sweatshirt weather. Fall is my favorite time of the year.

All stamps are from Unity. The background was stamped first in white brilliance but that didn't show up enough so then I stamped it in a yellow oxide ink and that didn't really show up enough either and finally I tried burnt umber palette ink and that was dark enough. I used my misti so a bit of the yellow still is visible whether because the ink spread just a little or the paper shifted a bit. I stamped the girl in the yellow oxide ink as well and then did a bit of no line coloring. I think I need to practice a bit more but it isn't bad. I added the layers of other papers and put on a few sequins. I always have trouble figuring out if I put too many or not enough on. Hmm. 
Hope you have a wonderful day.

Feathers

I think I'm getting on board with all the feather stamps. This has to be one of the prettiest feather stamps I've seen.



I stamped the feathers with distress oxide. The word is a die from memory box.  The layers are done with dies by my favorite things. Added some ribbon and then done.
Thanks for looking.
