Merry Christmas - So Suzy Stamp GD

Hello everyone,

I am back with my final post for this month.  I have truly enjoyed guest designing for So Suzy Stamps and I want to thank everyone for the opportunity.

Just a reminder that the So Suzy Shop will be down till January.  She's making some changes to make it better for you to shop.  We appreciate your patience.  

Now on with my card.  I used the same stamp as before and I did this on purpose so that when you're creating Christmas cards, sometimes you just can't make each and every card spectacular and unique even though you'd like to.  This was you can stamp the same image a few times and emboss them differently and colour them in or leave them as is for different looks but easier for you.

I stamped the image with Versamark clear sticky ink and heat embossed it with gold embossing powder on to a white panel.  I stamped the sentiment with Versamark as well and used a black sparkly embossing power and heat set it on a piece of gold vellum from my paper stash.

  I added fun foam to the back of my white panel and added it to an A2 sized card base. 

I took the piece of gold vellum and took the ends and wrapped them around the front panel and taped them to the back so I didn't have to add adhesive to the front.

To finish my card I used the Nuvo Crystal Drops in gold and added dots around the card.  These are so much fun to use.  

 They work great on your card or added them to a craft sheet and making your own enamel dots.  I made a few with the white drops as you see below. 

Thanks so much for joining me for the month of December.  I hope everyone enjoys the holiday season.

Holiday Card Series - Merry Christmas

Hello everyone,

I have another card for my Holiday Card series.  I used some of the images I coloured during Kathy Racoosin's colouring challenge.  

As soon as I coloured these up, I knew exactly the card I was going to make with them.  And so I did!

I stamped and coloured in the images with my copics and then I ran them through my die cutting machine and then added them to the panel with foam tape. I then cut out a square panel using white card stock from Recollections using the SSS stitched square dies. 

As I put the stencil down onto the paper with from Winnie & Walter, I added it diagonally and then ink blended some Fog ink from Simon Says Stamp.  I then popped it up onto a square card base with fun foam. I am liking that stuff more and more for creating dimension on my cards. Especially since I'm one of those who gets so involved with the card I end up forgetting to stamp the sentiment until the card is put together.  This way even if I forget, there is enough support under the panel that I can still add it to the card without destroying the whole card.  

After that was all done, I die cut the word merry three times out of black card stock from Lawn Fawn with a SSS word. It actually comes all together as Merry Christmas and I just cut off the Christmas part and stamped it instead. Unfortunately it has been so long since I did this card I can't remember which set the Christmas came from.  But there are many stamps set that would work.  

To finish off the card I used a white Signo gel pen and added the little dots and dashes to the flower.  

Thanks for stopping  by, see you again soon!
