Simple Christmas Card

I have another Christmas Card to share. This Christmas card is simple, but it took quite some time to do it.  I again used the stamp set from Studio Calico Cinnamon Spice kit.

I first created a mask using the circle stamp and placed the mask on a white cardstock.
I then took one sentiment stamp and used it to create the background. Once the background is created, I stamped and embossed the circle stamp on the void area in the middle of the cardstock.

I have submitted this card to CFC120 challenge at CAS-ualfridays blog and CAS-ual Christmas challenge at CurtaincallChallenge blog.

Supplies:
-Studio Calico Cinnamon Spice kit
-Gold embossing powder.
-Stampin Up Pool Party Ink Pad.

This is another entry to CFC120 challenge at CAS-ualfridays blog and CAS-ual Christmas challenge at CurtaincallChallenge blog.

Then, I embossed the sentiment using red glitter embossing powder.

Supplies:
-Studio Calico/ Mama Elephant Stamp Set from Cinnamon Spice Kit
-Papertrey Ink cardstock
-CTMH clear card base

Make It Monday #140: Ink Pad Design

Here is my entry to Papertrey Ink's Make It Monday challenge.

I used the Triangle coverplate to create a mask. Then I simply dabbed my Versacolor ink cubes to create the blue triangle background.

For the sentiment, I used a stamp from Quilled Elegance Stamp Set. I stamped the sentiment to two circle die cuts using Versamark ink. White embossing powder was used to create a white sentiment.

I also used some Distress Ink to add some color to the die cuts.

Make It Monday #139: Stamped Square Frames

Here is my take on PTI Make It Monday challenge (Stamped Square Frames).

On a piece of cardstock, I stamped one of the stamps from the Super Striped stamp set to create the frame. I then cut out the inside part of the frame.

I used In the Meadows stamp set to create the background. Using some dimensional dots, I placed the frame on top of the card base.

As an embellishment, I fussy cut the sofa that I stamped using a stamp from On My Couch set. I also created a banner using Avery Elle's Build A Banner stamp and die set. The sentiment stamp that I used for this card comes from Peaceful Pinecones set.

Make It Monday #138: Inlaid Die-cuts

This is my first participation in Papertrey Ink's Make It Monday. I hope I can continue participating in the challenges.

Here is my take on the Inlaid Die-cuts.

I used the Peaceful Pinecones set for this card. I used the matching die set to die cut the chevron background and then inlaid the pinecones die-cut to the card.

For the sentiment, I used Spellbinders circle die to die cut the white circle and inlaid it to the card.

Supplies:
-Papertrey Ink's Peaceful Pinecones set
-Chevron pattern paper from Kesi'Art (part of a kit from Studio Calico)
-Stampin Up Ink Pads: Real Red, Garden Green, Chocolate Chip
