Scrabble Jingle Jingle Jingle

Hey Everyone

I created a card not long ago with the Jingle Jingle Jing Stamp Set. For some reason I had stamped up a whole heap of extra sentiments. I was determined to use them, so after a bit of thought, I decided to create a scrabble type card that used up a lot of them.

I combined my letters with leaves and holly from the Leaves of Holly Stamp Set. Each of these images were fussy cut out and after a bit of manipulation, I was able to make the leaves work with the scrabble letters.

I also had the ribbon sitting on the desk that had been discarded from another project. I looped this ribbon from the top of the card down the side and adhered with Glue Dots. One Champagne Rhinestone was added for a bit of bling.

Thanks for stopping by.

Just Add Ink #623


Hey Everyone

It’s Friday so that means a new challenge to play along with over at Just Add Ink. This week is a colour challenge week. Take a look at the colours we have for you:

I combined these colours to create a Christmas card using two stamp sets – Jingle, Jingle, Jingle and Trees for Sale Stamp Set.

The torn notebook edged cardstock was created using a die from the Blossoming Happiness Dies. I love a torn and worn edge to give my cards texture.

The team have created awesome cards with this weeks challenge colours. Head over to the challenge and see what they’ve created.

Thanks for stopping by.

TGIF #377 – Christmas In July Challenge

Hey Everyone

I was a little bit more than pleased to see I was chosen as last weeks winner at TGIF Challenges! Thanks for the challenge love ladies!

This week their challenge is a Christmas In July Challenge.

The card I’ve made has non-traditional Christmas colours. I like to mix up my cards and create with traditional and non-traditional combinations.

The colours I’ve used for my holly leaves are Pool Party and Smoky Slate Inks. I then used the same colours on my branches of holly. These have been coloured with my blends. The stamped leaves are from the Leaves of Holly Stamp Set.

The background Basic White Cardstock has been given detail with a dauber, Smoky Slate Ink and Artistic Mix Decorative Masks. I love the background it gives to my holly leaves. I had cut a strip of DSP from the Perfectly Pencilled DSP pack for an earlier project, so the end of that piece was added to this card.

A Gray Granite Ribbon bow was tied on my fingers to create a double bow and adhered under the corner of the sentiment.

The sentiment I’ve inked up in Pool Party, Basic Gray and Smoky Slate Inks is from the Jingle Jingle Jingle Stamp Set. I stamped the patterned sentiment and fussy cut the letters out. I then stamped the hollow sentiment, added some dimensionals to the letters and layered them layered over the “jolly”.

Thanks for stopping by.

Cheers
