Blue Winter Flourish

 Hello and Happy Thursday.  Today's post is a short and sweet one featuring a Winter Wishes / Holiday card featuring a sweet winter bunny and heat embossing.

 The image topper is from The Paper Pantry Vol. III titled A Sprinkle of Winter.  I die cut the image from the larger topper with a circle die and mounted on foam pads.  The background was created by heat embossing a stamp from the Gina K. Designs Holiday Tapestry set and inking over the entire panel with shades of blue Distress Oxide inks.  The final touch was adding a ribbon, bow and clear Nuvo Drops.

Happy Winter to you, until next time, Happy Crafting!

Christmas Joy

 Hello and Happy Wednesday, the week is half spent and the weekend is in sight!  I've started Holiday crafting and wanted to quickly share my 1st Christmas Card for 2020.  I used the Simon Says Stamp Prismatic Snowflakes Stamp Set, Heat Embossing and Die Cuts to create my card.

I created my own background of snowflakes; heat embossing them with blue embossing powder.  I stamped a snowflake as a focal image and heat embossed it with white powder.  I inked the background of the fancy circle with Distress Oxide Inks in various shades of blues, used Alphabet dies to cut the work Joy which I covered in Glossy Accents.  Lastly, added ribbon and a bow to complete the card.

Christmas is my favorite crafty time of year and my favorite holiday of all.  Have you started your Holiday card making yet?  I always try to get a head start but usually fall behind sometime around our Thanksgiving holiday.

Until next time, Happy Crafting!

12 Months of Christmas

Clean and Simple Christmas

Hello and Happy Tuesday!  Christmas is creeping closer and I'm still creating Christmas Cards, I should be completely finished by Christmas :)

I've created what I feel is a CAS Christmas Card, using only a die cut along with glitter and mirror card.  I die cut the tree image from the glitter card and again from the silver mirror card, then inlaid the mirror card into the space.  I really like how this one turned out, I love the look of blue and silver at Christmas time!

I hope you've been inspired today.  Until next time, Happy Crafting!
