Week of 11/7/20 cards

 

FS717 - This weeks incredibly talented featured stamper is rdm aka Mary. I found this great CARD.

I loved the colors she used. I always love blue and white cards and her card was perfect to inspire this card.

I used my gel plate to put distress oxide inks on it then I stenciled a snowflake stencil over it with my brayer. I removed the stencil and laid a piece of cardstock on it to pick up the left over ink.

Once dry I added more blue and white stamped snowflakes and then die cut the white snowflakes.

I heat embossed the sentiment and finished with the sequins.

2020BLITZ1 - Triple Fold Card

This is for the 2020 Holiday Blitz challenge. This is a great way to use up a piece of 6 x 6 paper. I used nearly the entire sheet of the sentiment 6 x 6 and then just added scraps for the other pieces. It is a fantastic fold and really quick to make too. I might need to make a few more of this one.

USEIT2020 - Many die cuts

When I saw Dina's challenge I knew I had these nativity die cuts in my tote of items I want to use up. I am also way behind in my Christmas cards and thought I would make these and clear them out of the tote.

I added several DPs to the BGs and colored the images with copics.

I stamped the sentiments and left them in the die cuts to sponge some color.

I finished the layers with some already die cut stars for my light source.

I used several different DPs and colored CS to create these gift card holders and while digging in my stash of items to use up I came across these already die cut trees. So I added those to the front of one of the belly bands. Christmas Card Gift Holders

IC779 - Plaid Crafts

I am still trying to get caught up on my pet sympathy cards for my donation and came across this cute Tissue Box. What a fun craft for kids.

This image and sentiment were sent to me from Jan (Precious Kitty - Thank you Jan!) and I used this paw print DP as the BG and just came up with a quick layout. It is nice when I can just grab stuff already in my craft stash to help me quickly make cards for my donations.
