Santa Moneyholder

This money holder was created using two pieces of inspiration. Both from Pinterest, one is from Amy Koenders for her very detailed instructions on how she created her money holder card using the Stampin' Trimmer, Simply Scored Tool and the Envelope Punch Board.  The other, is from Katie Legge with her lovely Santa belly band closure.

Here are their photos and their links to their sites:

Big Banner Day

This card looks so much better in person than in my photo... darn lighting. Lol!  The colors I used are Coastal Cabana, Basic Black and Whisper White.

I colored in the 'birthday' with my Coastal Cabana stampin' write marker.

Now, on to how I made my banner flags.  I used the Sweet Sadie Washi tape on both Coastal Cabana and Whisper White cardstock before punch them with the banner punch.

Pumpkin Patch

LOL! I was trying to be clever with the title... since I used the 'Flower Patch' stamp set and Pumpkin Pie cardstock! Ha!

For background piece I used the 'Sweet Sadie' washi tape on White cardstock. If you look really closely you can see where I overlapped the tape to lie the pattern correctly down.

Thanks for peeking!

Sweet Lotus

Wow! So happy to have received my new goodies from Stampin' Up! New stamp sets, paper and washi tape! LOL!

I have to say... I was a little apprehensive to try the new Lotus Blossom triple-step stamp set, as I wasn't sure about what colors to use! Ha! There are so many possibilities with this set.

I used Strawberry Slush and So Saffron on my flowers and Smoky Slate on the stems.  I first stamped the 1st stamp in Strawberry Slush, then stamped off (on a scrap piece of paper) then stamped image on card front. Then, I stamped the 2nd stamp in So Saffron and stamped it onto the card from lining up the two points on top. Finally, with the 3rd stamp... I stamped it in So Saffron, stamped off (on a scrap piece of paper) then stamped onto the card front. Whew! I lot of work, but the final product is amazing!  I did the same with the stem. With the 1st stamp in Smoky Slate and the 2nd with Smoky Slate too, but I stamped off on a scrap piece of paper.

This is the first time I used washi tape on my cards.  I believe it really dresses it up quite nicely... the washi tape is adhered to black cardstock, so it looks gray in the background instead of white -- pretty cool!

Stamp sets - Lotus Blossom, And Many More
