Another Ornament Card...

I am really liking the ornament stamp set and co-ordinating punch from Stampin' Up!

Here is the card I made for a "Jump Start Christmas Swap" I hosted on Stampin Canada.

The silver ornament is tin foil that I ran through the cuttlebug (swiss dots folder)...if I was going to do it again, I would use more layers of foil. One layer on cardstock was too fiddly!!



Stamp A Stack

Attended a "Stamp A Stack" with my lovely SU upline ML on October 17th.

Here are the cards we made - I am so far ahead on Christmas cards this year!! YAY!!!

Medallion card

When I ordered this medallion stamp, I really had no idea how BIG it was going to be...I love it!

This sample came from the Stampin' Success magazine...the card is 4x4, if I made it again, I would do it bigger, as a 5x5, the stamp is certainly big enough!!

Acetate Snowmen

I "cased" this card (with permission of course) from one of my friends from Stampin Canada.

This card is almost identical to a card Sherry made for the "Jump Start Christmas" swap that I hosted.

What a great use of acetate...I never would have thought to use it in the centre of the card like this to show the sentiment inside - brilliant!! Thanks for allowing me to copy and share it Sherry!

You know Dasher...

Is it too early to start singing Christmas carols??? Nahhhhhh....

This "Dasher" stamp is one of my favourite single stamps from the current Stampin' Up catalogue.

We used the Scor-Pal to make the grid on the green paper, not sure if you can see it or not, but there is shimmer paint on his antlers.

Happy Turkey Day

Hmmmm - so here's the punch turkey - and now that I have made him, I am not all too keen on him, he's definately hitting the dinner table...hahahaha

For all the work he was - lots of fiddly parts, I don't see too many punch turkey cards in my future!

My favourite part of this card is the crumpled up / torn / inked paper bag behind the jive turkey :)

Scary Halloween Mummy!

I absoloutely love this card!

I saw it on another blog http://giddygreetings.blogspot.com and just had to try it out.

I couldn't swing the paper bow, so I added a happy halloween stamp instead...

What do you think?? Is he not the cutest little mummy?
