Wintry Cheer

 

I created this Christmassy Thank You card for my brother and his wife. They do so much for our big family by hosting all the holiday parties at their home. Its a huge undertaking... and for me, it doesn't go unappreciated!

I chose to pair the sentiment in 'Heart Shaped' (and its coordinating die) with the 'Words of Cheer' stamp set (and Christmas Cheer dies). The background is the 'Wintry 3D' embossing folder along with 'Peaceful Prints' DSP (Designer Series Paper).

Celebrating Cheer

 

I loved the clean design on Ardyth's card (found on Pinterest). I wanted to create a boy card though, so changed the flower to stars. As my 'Happy' word was way bigger than hers, I decided to center my focal piece making the card my own. Thanks Ardyth for your inspiration!

I only used a portion of one of the stamps in the 'Celebrating You' stamp set. I taped the part I didn't need before stamping onto the cardstock.

The DSP is retired from the 'Oh So Ombre' Designer Series Paper pack.

Delicate Perfection

 

As I was perusing the Sale-A-Bration Catalog (August-September 2021), I saw this gem with only using the leaves from the 'Delicate Dahlias' stamp set. I changed a few things up to make the card my own, but the general inspiration was all Stampin' Up!'s. 

The intricate die-cut is so easy to adhere to the card using adhesive sheets. The process is this: Choose your cardstock and cut it down to the size you need. Next, take a piece of the adhesive sheet and pulling off the covering on one side (strips-side).... attach it to the cardstock you want to die-cut. Next die-cut the piece as you normally do (just place the adhesive side on the bottom). After die-cutting, peel the other side of the adhesive and adhere to your cardstock base.

The coloring of the images was done using Stampin' Blends markers. I stamped the leaves in Evening Evergreen and then colored them in using Soft Succulent.

Thanks for taking a closer look!
