7 weeks of Christmas part 2

Hi Stashers.  Today I would like to share with you my second video in the 7 weeks of Christmas series.

Featuring the Card front builder thinlit die set - 144674 and the Hearts come home stamp set - 145416 this card is super easy to make and doesn't take that much time either.

I love elegant eggplant, so that is the main colour that I have used and I think that Tranquil tide is the perfect green for projects like this.

Please check back tomorrow for another video in the series.

Take care every one and thank you for stopping by.

Playing with paisley

Hello Crafters.

Today I had some play time and I decided to have my first play with the Paisleys and Posies stamp set and the Paisley framlits dies.

I decided to work with Cherry cobbler, Crushed curry and Elegant eggplant which are all colours in the regal collection.  The colours are so rich and work so well together.

I started by creating a card blank using the crushed curry.  I then took a piece of cherry cobbler and die cut three of the leafy fan shape design, making sure to keep the bits that I cut out.

I then created my background using  various stamps from the  Paisleys and Posies stamp set using a cherry cobbler Stampin' write marker to ink my stamps.  They are very juicy, so embossing using these pens should be a dream.  I'm looking forward to trying that out.

I then adhered my cherry cobbler background onto my card blank.

I stamped Blessed on to an off cut of crushed curry using an elegant eggplant Stampin' write marker to ink my stamp.  I had to mask off part of the stamp to do this.  I matted the crushed curry sentiment onto a piece of cherry cobbler and then double matted on to a piece of elegant eggplant and adhered the sentiment to my card using foam adhesive strips.

I die cut three of the leafy fan shape designs from a piece of elegant eggplant, again keeping all of the bits that were cut out and glued them into place in the apertures I had created in the cherry cobbler background.  I finished off by adding some of the cherry cobbler cut outs and some rhinestones that match the card.

I hope you like it

Thanks for stopping by.
