THE WONDER OF CHRISTMAS – CHOIR OF ANGELS!

I was playing with some new products from the 2016 Holiday Catalogue  yesterday.  I even got my colouring happening!! I wanted to try this new set the ‘Wonder of Christmas’.  There is not a lot around with this set yet but I am sure there will be soon. It is really sweet and I love the words in it too. I will show you the set below.  Here is the card first.

angels singing

I had in mind to do a choir of Angels.  This is a standard size card so I could only fit 3 but I am sure there were lots more Angels around right!! 🙂 I stamped an Angel on Thick Whisper White card with StazOn and coloured it with the Aquapainter and Inkpads. I then cut it out and layed it onto a Whisper White card mat so I could see where to place the other Angels. I stamped 2 other Angels in Smoky Slate on to the Whisper White card.

The little stars in the set were stamped in Soft Sky on to the White card also.  This was adhered to a Cherry Cobbler card base.  The sentiment was stamped in Memento Black. The Angel was raised up off the card with Dimensionals.  The card was finished off with some Rhinestones and I added a little Wink of Stella on the wings but you can’t notice that too much.

What do you think?

It’s a great set.  Here is a little sneak for you.

Personal Ramblings, Stampin' Up!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!

8 birthday

It’s my Stampin’ Up! Birthday today.  8 years ago I joined Stampin’ Up! Back then I was joining to get a great discount of these awesome products, hopefully earn a little income along the way and it gave me an excuse to craft away my day!! Hehe!!  Now while I love the discount and the free products I get, the best part is all the friends I have made. Along with my local customers and friends, I have friends now from all over the world that I wouldn’t have known if I hadn’t become part of this great big family.

So I am celebrating all my new found friends.  Thanks for coming a part of my life. You are very special to me and I mean that.  xx

To many more fun years of creating – and hopefully inspiring you.  Thanks for visiting me. I know there are hundreds of Stampin’ Up! blogs around.  So I appreciate you taking the time to visit me.  I hope that when you visit you might feel inspired and maybe encouraged.  I hope to brighten your day.

Do comment and say Hello.  Tell me where you are from.  I love to hear from you.

Thanks again,

TRIANGLE EASEL CARD WITH THOUGHTFUL BRANCHES!

I was looking at my Butterfly Easel card the other day that I made some time ago and thought this would be a great card idea for the Thoughtful Branches.  So of course, I had to make it.  🙂  Here it is for you.

Front view.

I have used the Sweet Sugarplum as the card base.  The tree is cut with Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper. The Designer Series Paper is the Playful Palette Paper stack.

The card folds flat for postage.  It measures 10.5cm x 10.5cm (4″ x 4″). So you could make an envelope with the Envelop Punch Board.

I made up a tutorial for this Fold way back when I made the Butterfly Card.  You can find that tutorial HERE in this post. So go and check it out for you to make your version.

Thanks for looking.  I hope you can make a Triangle Easel card yourself.

SWEET SUGARPLUM THOUGHTFUL BRANCHES!

The delivery of my Thoughtful Branches bundle arrived today as I was creating. I had been waiting with anticipation for this set so I was excited. I had been deliberating what to make next so it arrived just in time!

I had been pinning ideas on Pinterest, so I could have CASED some but I wanted to see what I could create.  So here is what I made.

image

The Designer Series Paper is from the Playful Palette paper stack. The tree is cut from Early Espresso. I stamped the leaves in Sweet Sugarplum on the cardstock then cut it out with the Thinlits. The sentiment is stamped in Early Espresso and then matted it on Sweet Sugarplum. I tried several colour card bases but then settled on the Thick Whisper White card base. I think that was the right choice. Before I assembled the card I wrapped around Thick White Baker’s Twine. I think I should have gone with the thinner white though. Too late then though 🙂 It needed a little sparkle to finish so I cut the little birdie from Glimmer Paper.

There are so many elements in the stamp set and the Thinlits so it is very versatile. I think you would get lots of use from these making cards for different occasions. If you haven’t seen the set you can check them out in the previous post.

The bundle is $90.75. Of course you can get them individually but you can save 10% by buying the bundle. You can order this bundle from me. When you order from me You will also receive a PDF of some bonus projects PLUS receive double the VIS (loyalty) Points.

I am looking forward to creating more with these so stay tuned.
