Christmas Wishes

 

I saw this card on Scrapbook.com and knew I needed to create one of my own for my Christmas cards. I chose the supplies that I had on hand. Thanks to whomever created this lovely card.

I chose the DSP (Designer Series Paper) from 'Country Woods' DSP pack.

The spray is made using the 'Pretty Pines' dies.

The sentiment is from the 'Wishes All Around' stamp set.

The label is from the 'Tasteful Labels' dies.

Thanks for stopping by!

Unto Peace

 

I'm loving the plaid paper for Christmas from the 'Peaceful Prints' DSP. I paired it with the sentiment from 'For Unto Us'. The sentiment die-cut is from the 'Tasteful Labels' dies and the Pinecone and tree parts are from the 'Pretty Pines' dies.  I added a 'Wink of Stella' to the pinecones to make them shine.

Thanks for taking a look!

Unto Us Pines

 

I loved the simplicity of Tamara Bertram's card, and was inspired with the plaid piece background with the focal piece sentiment. I made a few changes to make the card my own.

The background piece measures 2 x 4.75.

The sentiment piece measures 3 x 1.75.

The card measures 4.25 x 5.5.

Merry Christmas!

Stamp set - For Unto Us

Ink - Mossy Meadow

Paper - Crumb Cake, Cherry Cobbler, Mossy Meadow, Whisper White, Plaid Tidings DSP

Painted Pines

With each stamp set I purchase, I sometimes look to see if there's an unusual way to use the stamp/image/shape. With the 'Christmas Pines' stamp set... you would think that you could only use it for pinecones. Well, I noticed that the image sort of looked like a pineapple too. So, I thought to make a cute card using the image as a pineapple.

For the greenery for the pineapple, I used the leaf stamp in the 'Painted Harvest' stamp set.

Thanks for taking a closer look!

Stamp Sets - Christmas Pines, Painted Harvest, Birthday Banners
Ink - Soft Suede, Crumb Cake, Granny Apple Green
Paper - Pineapple Punch, Whisper White, Nature's Poem DSP

Pine Christmas

 

When I saw Mary Deatherage's card on Pinterest... I just knew I had to create one of my own. I decided to use the 'Christmas Pines' stamp set and coordinating 'Pretty Pines' thinlits, along with the sentiment from 'Season Like Christmas' instead of the stamps/die cuts that she used. I also changed out the ribbon and twine that she used too.

Thanks for taking a peek at my version!

Supplies Used:

Stamp Sets - Christmas Pines, Season Like Christmas

Ink - Memento

Paper - Whisper White (thick), Whisper White, Basic Black, Merry Little Christmas DSP, Soft Suede, Old Olive

Accessories - Big Shot, Die Brush, Precision Plate, Pretty Pines Thinlits, glue dots, twine, Basic Black Shimmer Ribbon

 

Glimmer Pines

I found a card on Pinterest using white for the pine cone with white on the background... and so, wanted to try that on a card of my own. I paired it with Soft Sea Foam and Silver paper to create a elegant card.

I applied 'Wink of Stella' on the pine cone to make it sparkle (although, you can't really see that in my photo).

Thanks for taking a closer look.

Supplies Used:
Stamp Set - Christmas Pines
Ink - Gray Granite
Paper - Whisper White (thick), Whisper White, Soft Sea Foam, Glimmer Paper Silver
Accessories - Big Shot, Precision Plate, Die Brush, Pretty Pines Thinlits, glue dots, Metallic Ribbon (Silver)

Wooden Pines

I cannot take total credit for this card.  I saw Jacqui McLeay's card on Pinterest, and just thought I would create one similar for myself. Her's is a little different, yet you can see where I got the inspiration from her. Here's her card:

Thanks Jacqui!

I used the Christmas Pines stamp set along with the coordinating Pretty Pines thinlits for this card. The only stamp I used is the sentiment... everything else is die-cut with the Pretty Pines thinlits.

The pine cones had a background on Early Espresso and an overlay of Crumb Cake. The berry sprigs are Real Red and the pine boughs are Garden Green.
