Jesus is the Reason...

 

This Small Nativity Scene - 696D pairs perfectly with the new Jesus is the Reason Greeting - 893F.

For my card I stamped the Small Nativity Scene on craft card stock and colored with pencils. I then tore the edge and sponged the edge with brown ink.

For the blue base I heat embossed the Jesus is the Reason Greeting in white and then added some additional stars using a white gel pen.

I just love this new PLAID FIR TREE - 971H.

I stamped the tree twice in a bright pink and once in a subtle pink and fussy cut them. For the base layer I added a texture to mimic the plaid and match the bright pink. I then stamped the sentiment in the bright pink and layered the trees and sentiment using dimensionals.

Birthday Balloons

 

WT871 - punches

Last year for the splitcoaststampers.com Blitz tutorials we learned this fun technique called Die Cut Relief. It was so much fun that I tried it again. This time I used stacked balloons punched from my scraps to create the background.

 I used 3 layers of punched balloons and cared the base. I then used black acrylic paint, then gold and I finished with white.

Once the paint was dry I layered it on gold mirror and added a gold mirror die cut birthday sentiment. I just love how this looks. The picture does not do this justice.

MMTPT695 - Use a blanket or quilt image

I love this challenge it works great for using paper scraps from my piles of left over papers. I am also trying to create a few extra quilt cards as my MIL uses them for birthday cards and thinking of you cards for her friends.

I used several different blues and purples to create these 2 cards. I also had these 2 flowers on my table needing used so they were perfect to compliment these cards.

Thanksgiving Blessings

 

I am ramping up on my Thanksgiving cards and thought this PUMPKIN PILE - 781H was a wonderful image for a thankful card.

I stamped the Pumpkin Pile then colored with copics. I then fussy cut them and paired them with a tree emboss folder. To give them a bit of dimension I shaped the edges then popped them on dimensionals.

I finished with the THANKSGIVING BLESSINGS - 637E sentiment.
