Merry Christmas Santa

Merry Christmas Santa


I needed to make a larger card because I send my sons school picture out at Christmas and his grand parents get a 5x7



My dies don't work with a 5x7 so I had to trim my base panel with my paper cutter but was able to use my oval die for my top panel.

 


I stamped this Santa from Strawberry Jude Stamps Note It: Letter to Santa. I colored the image with Zig Clean Color markers and put a little wink of Stella on the white part of his hat. 


Then I use a sentiment from Tag It: Christmas.
That was it!

Very quick and easy card!

Follow the Star Shaker Card

 Follow the Star Shaker Card

I used two of Strawberry Jude Stamps December freebies on this card.
The camel is a digi stamp that was sent out to people on the mailing list and the Follow the Star stamp is a freebie with any purchase in December. . . .  

We will be sending the images again tomorrow!
You can join the mailing list here at the bottom of the page.


I printed the camel digi and colored it using PrismaColor colored pencils and gamsol.

Then I cut out my panels. . . I didn't intend to make this a shaker card but once I die cut the oval out of my top layer I had to make it a shaker!


On my base layer I stamped with Versamark ink and white heat embossed.


I attached my top layer to my shaker window, placed a double layer of foam tape 
(so there is plenty of room to more around!) 
then added assortment of brown sequins and a few seed beads.


I removed the protective layer from the foam tape and carefully placed my base layer to seal in all my shaker goodies!!

Once everything was pressed down real well I used some score tape to attach my shaker to a card base.

That was it! 
Super easy and super fun to make!

I will be entering this card in the following challenge;

Merry Christmas Ornament

Merry Christmas Ornament

It was pretty simple and I think it turned out pretty good!

I used Strawberry Jude Stamps Don't Forget Christmas and Tag it: Christmas on this project.



I got these tiles from Home Depot, they are attached to a mesh but you just peel them off.


I was going to use Stazon Ink for this, However my ink pad was pretty dry, and I couldn't find my remover and it's bad for your stamps anyways, so I figured I would just heat emboss!


I patted my tile with the powder bag then I used Versafine to stamp my sentiment. I sprinkled it with the embossing powder right away. I did have a little stick to places other than the ink but I blew on it and it went away, a forceful blow, kinda like you are spitting but no spit! LOL!

Then I applied the heat. . . it took a while. . . . and the tile was HOT!!!! So be careful!!!

I also had to wait for the tile to cool down before I could do the present, 
I didn't want my embossing powder to melt all over the tile!

Here is is all nice and shiny!


I colored it with my Copics but you could use sharpies also!


I use these silver bails to make them hang-able, I use a little bit of this E6000. . . it is pretty stinky but I set them outside or down in my empty basement to dry overnight. . . . I think you can use hot glue or any other strong adhesive.


That's it! You could put anything on this!
 I also do some that I glue a magnet to the back to put it on my fridge!

Thank you guys for stopping by!

See you next time!

Christmas Gift Tag

Christmas Gift Tag

I used two sets from Strawberry Jude Stamps to create this Christmas gift tag.



I stamped the frame on watercolor paper and clear heat embossed it.


I colored it with watercolors and then cut the tag out.

 

I added the Merry and Bright from the Tag it set and then did a little stamp surgery to get My Love from the Couples Sentiments set. I stamped them in green to match the tag.  I added a bit of holly on the side. Since this is for my significant other, and he is not that into glitter (Why, I have no idea.. . ) I just added a little bit of stickles on the holly.


I punched a hole on the side and use some white and silver twine. 

Perfect to tie to his present this year!
