Step Into Christmas

Hi everyone~Kathie McGuire here today to share another Side Step card. How do you like the blog post title? I don't know about anyone else, but Step Into Christmas by Elton John is one of my favorite Christmas songs! What could be better than creating cards with a TJ technique while listening to it???

I'm still sharing Christmas cads because I used the Side Step technique from the Fancy Folds and Motion CD for my 2010 Christmas card design. I made so many great cards and received so many compliments and thank you's from those who received them.

This card base is pre-printed, so I simply added a stamped ornament (Rubbernecker image from 10 or 12 years ago), a stamped greeting, and a lot of stickers and stickles.

Thanks for stopping by on your stamping Saturday!

Emboss or Die CD: White on White by Judy Jackson

This really and truly is White on White. But because of the half-pearls I had a hard time getting the scanned image to display a "pure" white on white image.

In addition to using the White on White Technique from the new CD, I watercolored the image of this sweet little girl. This image is from Stampin' Up! There a very pale shimmery lavender paper underneath the little girls.This is a fun and elegant way to create a lovely card.

Pop Up Tunnel Card

Hi everyone, Donna here. Happy Friday to you!

Before Pat releases her next amazing CD, I thought I'd share a card I did for the Fancy Folds and Motion CD using the Pop Up Tunnel card tutorial. This is a very easy fold to do and I think it adds so much interest to a card.  The stamps I used are from I Brake for Stamps, colored very quickly with Prismacolor pencils.
