12 Days of Cards- Day Six


Good Morning and welcome to Day Six of my 12 Days of Cards Series!
Today I am featuring another stamp set from Your Next Stamp Called: Frosty Friends
I thought this little mouse was just adorable so I stamped it out using Black Olive Preminum Ink from Your Next Stamp onto Copic paper. I then added some light blue snowflakes and coloured the scene with Copic markers. I then finished it off with some glitter and Nuvo drops.
The stamped image is mounted on vellum and on embossed (Tim Holtz embossing folder) cardstock.

Thanks for looking today!
Come back tomorrow for Day Seven!

12 Days of Cards- Day Five


Good Morning and welcome to Day Five of my 12 Days of Cards Series!
Today I am featuring an ADORABLE stamp set by Simon Says Stamp 
called: Furry Christmas Friends Pets
Our family LOVES dogs and animals so I thought this
would be a perfect Christmas card for my parents!

I stamped the image out on Copic paper with Memento ink. Then I cut it out using my Big Shot with some Gina Marie Dies. I coloured the animals with Copic markers and then stamped the sentiment using Versfine ink. The Snowflake die is from Your Next Stamp and the papers from Lawn Fawn.

12 Days of Christmas Cards!


Good Morning and welcome to my 12 Days of Christmas Card series where I will showcase some of the cards I have made for Christmas featuring some of my favourite new (and maybe old) stamp sets and dies.

To start off Day One, I an using an older set from Heartfelt Creations called: Petite Poinsettia
I embossed the flowers onto watercolour Distress paper and then watercoloured it using Distress Ink. After using several colours to get the desired effect I used some gold Distress Stain along the edges and mounted onto a cardstock base.
Thanks for looking and come back tomorrow to see Day Two!
