Mid-month Inspiration - Christmas Ornaments

It's Mid-April already, time for another Christmas Ornament card to share with you ....

All digis I changed to png format, and uploaded into Silhouette Studio DE and grouped together to be a tree branch holding a ornament.  I used Christmas Red from Copics for the bow; and glitter pens from Wink by Stella for the ornament.  The layering of card was just an accident.  I laid the top layer on the red cardstock like shown, and liked it so went with that format.  The 2 mats from my personal stash of paper.  Red gemstones from Wal-mart; and the silver beads from a pkg of phone bling.  Penned in stitch lines using white gel pen.

Thank you for visiting with me today; and hope all have a great tax day!!  Don't forget to do thoses taxes!!..

Challenge #51 Anything Goes

Stenciled Rose Card

Created two cards using Stenciled Rose Card, one for a birthday card and the 2nd card as a anniversary card (which came along at a good time - son and daughter-in-law celebrating 15 years of marriage.)

The first card the stencil was cut out using poster board and layered onto a fancy scalloped-edge mat from SilhouettteAmerica Online Store and sponged with a retired ink pads from Close to My Heart - 

1. Cranberry
2. Blush

and from Stampin! UP

1. Wild Wasabi Ink Pad
2. Ribbon - from my Stampin! Up stash of ribbons

Pink gemstones from my personal stash.

I hand punched the tag and placed over some ink stains when I was sponging the edges with Cranberry from Close to My Heart.

2nd card:

I cut the Stenciled Rose and placed a red circle under the cut out rose.  Laid the leaves on top of the mat; and stamped the sentiment in the corner, placed a pink gemstone in one corner of the mat.  Now to locate a inside sentiment for anniversary and  it'll be ready to mail out.

Halloween Card Topper

Mid October already - time is flying by too fast.  I am sharing this card with you all today.... for A Girl Who Crafts...

Supplies used:

Challenge #32 Shaker Card

First here is the video tutorial by Prairie Paper & Ink (AmyR) of a Shaker Card




And here is my Shaker Card....

 This is the top/front of the Shaker Card, using a cut file from my Silhouette Studio DE Library I cut out the scalloped-window frame, and nine pieces of poster board pieces for the inside of the frame plus a clear plastic in the shape of the scalloped frame.  I print and cut the sentiment square piece and applied to the back of the framed poster board pieces.

The sequins found in the jewelry crafting department at local Wal-mart which was put inside of window.  All this I used Score-tape for adhering to each other plus to the card base.  Since I felt it was looking blah, I punched a scalloped edge, trimmed to correct size, and applied a ribbon for border and used two gemstones/beads for the corner.

 

This is the inside of the card, which as you can see is a birthday card for my soon-to-be 14 year old granddaughter.  I've been working on her 12x12 scrapbook and found the baby picture of her about 11 months old in my stash of photos and decided to create a mini-layout with baby picture and present day of 14 year old.  I created this mini-layout using my Adobe Photoshop Elements, printed out on photo paper and cut out with my Silhouette Cameo.  Layered it on her favorite colored mats and this is her birthday card, on it's way to Texas.

Thank you for stopping to visit with me, and take a moment and head over to Scrapbook Blessings Club for more inspiration, joining in the challenge(s) and apply for a position on the DT call.  Happy crafting to all
