Stamp-a-stack Christmas 2 - Ornament Keepsakes

This is the second card from the Christmas Stamp-a-stack. It's another card that has products that can be purchased in a bundle, saving 15% when the dies and the stamp set is bought together. The set, called Ornament Keepsakes has been popular so far, and one of the main reasons for this is that it's used to create the stunning decoration on the front of the catalogue. There's 9 stamps and 8 matching dies in this set.

For this card, the Festival Of Prints DSP Stack was used again for the background paper, with a card blank of Baja Breeze. The baubles were stamped in Baja Breeze and Early Espresso onto Very Vanilla card. Bows were tied and attached to the tops with the Crumb Cake Taffeta ribbon. The sentiment is from Curly Cute, one of my most used sets!

 

 

 

 

Bird House

Here's another one of the projects that I made during my crafty weekend with Kylie a few weeks ago. I made a bird house using the mini milk carton die. I used Very Vanilla card stock, stamped with Crumb Cake ink with the Woodgrain background stamp. I used Soft Suede for the roof, and the Scallop Edge Border Punch on the edges. The hole was cut with the 1-3/4" Circle Punch, and a piece of acetate was placed behind the hole. The carton was filled with mini eggs. The Bird punch was used to cut the bird, in Rose Red and Pink Pirouette card stock, with Certainly Celery for the branch.

Fancy Folds Card 3 - Easel Owl Card

Here's the third in my fancy folds cards - an easel card.  It uses the colour combo of Perfect Plum, Crumb Cake and Very Vanilla.  I used the Woodgrain background stamp with Crumb Cake Ink to create a wood effect on the Very Vanilla cardstock on the front of the card, as well as on the Crumb Cake base. An owl was punched using the Owl Builder punch, and I added some Rhinestone Pearls to look like a necklace.  I used the Word Window Punch and the Modern Label Punch with a sentiment from Teeny Tiny Wishes, and added a couple of the Stampin' Dimensionals to make a raised section where the top of the card rests to make it stand up.

This picture shows the card laid flat for placing in an envelope.

Fancy Folds Card 2

This is another one of my fancy folds cards, also called a tri-fold card. It was made with Soft Suede card stock, and the Beau Chateau Papers. The Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder was used to Emboss the Very Vanilla and Pink Pirouette panels. The Four Frames stamp set was used with the Modern Label Punch, with the sentiment from For My Family.   Unfortunately, now I've uploaded these photos onto here, the colours look a bit washed out, it must have been bad light when I took them.  The card is much brighter!
