Holiday Season

 Hello Junkies!  

It is Chris jumping on with two holiday cards.  The holiday season is creeping up on us.  I'm trying hard to chip away at my card list.   I have two really fun cards to share with you.     I'm loving the new sentiments.  The fonts are playful but still easy to read.    I hope these cards inspire you to get a start on your holiday cards.

Scripted Holidays

Jingle All the Way

Menorah

I used a punch to create the Jingle Bells.  The tiny bows were a labor of love, but they were so worth it! 

I don't make a lot of Hanukkah cards, but this menorah background looks so stunning heat embossed on the blue sparkle cardstock.  The camera doesn't really capture the sparkle... but you will have to trust me.  

Pink and Green Christmas

 

Good morning!  It's Holly posting today, and I have a fun pink and green Christmas card to share with y'all.  I thought I'd change it up and use a bright pink and green color combo instead of a traditional red and green.  That pink just makes me smile!

I stamped the new Embellished Merry Christmas stamp from Technique Junkies with a bright green ink and then added a bright green card layer behind this.  Next, I pulled out the Snowflakes set and randomly stamped some snowflakes in pink and green all over a white card panel.  I adhered this snowflakes panel to a bright pink card base, wrapped some pink and white baker's twine around the card, and then added the green Christmas sentiment over the twine with some foam tape.

TJ Inkspiration: Shimmering Bells Christmas Card Tutorial

 

Golden, Shimmering Christmas Card The new Christmas Bells stamp is one of my personal favorites! I think the bells are so elegant, and yet so versatile at the same time. Today we use the bells embossed in gold with some creative coloring, layered over TJ Shimmering Bliss.  I created a kit for you so you can save a little money if you are interested. The kit may be found HERE.

Let us Adore Him!

 Happy Wednesday In blogland!

Today I am sharing a beautiful sentiment Let Us Adore Him  and I paired it with a previously release 

Christmas Frame. I used a combination of sponging and coloring with Zig watercolor markers and then fussy cut the frame out. Lastly, I take a black marker and go around the entire cut out image as I think it gives it a more “finished” look.

Bright Lights

 

Christmas needs Christmas lights!  I stamped Christmas Lights  with Versamark in on black card stock.  I heat embossed the lights with detail gold embossing powder.   I painted the lights with Smooch paints.  When dry I put Crystal Effects on each light bulb.  I stamped a greeting from Scripted Holidays with Versamark ink on black card stock  and heat embossed with gold embossing powder. I trimmed and layered everything to complete the card

Misty Trees Believe

 

Good morning!  Have you started on your Christmas cards?  I've got a pretty good start on mine, and one of them is today's card that I created with stamps from Technique Junkies.

I love the Misty Trees stamp, and when I saw the new Believe stamp, I just knew they would be perfect together.  I stamped the Misty Trees with a soft green ink onto white cardstock, and then I stamped the Believe with a dark evergreen ink.  It's hard to tell, but I added some iridescent gems to the stars in the sentiment.

Please feel free to use this code, TJ10Holly, to save when you shop at Technique Junkies.  You can grab these two stamps that I used today, Misty Trees and Believe, and you can stock up on some more Christmas stamps from this month's release HERE.  Have a wonderful day!
