Week 6 of the 12 Weeks of Christmas

Today I am sharing a project with one of my favorite bundles from our holiday mini catalog.  When I send my Christmas cards, I like to have a message of the season.  You will see more projects with this bundle in the coming days,  When I created this card I did die cut the the shepherds on each end of the die in boho blue cardstock and glue them over the dull die cut in misty blue.  I wanted the shepherds to be a different color.

Week 5 of he 12 Weeks of Christmas

One of my favorite designer series paper in our holiday mini catalogs is our snowflake magic specialty paper.  I like to create cards with snowflakes.  I usually have a snowflake stamp and die set in my lineup of Christmas cards.  Do you have a favorite theme in creating your Christmas cards?  I like to have a message for my cards.  I don't do a lot with Santa.  This card has a beautiful shimmer on this specialty designer paper.  I added the adhesive backed glitter sequins to this card to add more glimmer.

Week 4 of the 12 Weeks of Christmas

The project for today is a beautiful "Noel" Christmas card,  The card is a is a beautiful card to add to the cards you send for the holidays.  It is made with our gold foil paper to give it an elegant look.  The background  is created with our Tiny Christmas Trees die and then I put the gold foil paper behind it so the trees would really pop on this card.  I also embossed the Noel with gold embossing powder.  

Here is the items used to create this card:

Thank you for visiting my blog today.  Please leave a comment and let us know what your is your favorite technique to do when making your Christmas cards?  The first year I made my Christmas cards, I created an angel embossed in gold embossing powder.  I made one design and did all my cards the same that year.

Sunflower Card

This sunflower was made with our new abundant beauty decorative masks in our holiday mini catalog.  There are a total of 7 masks included and 4 of them are for the sunflower.  There is leaves, snowflake and hound's tooth masks.  I am going to have to leaves mask to design something for fall and the snowflakes for a Christmas project.  I used our sponging brushes to add the color the the card.  To give the sunflower the lighter color of the petal tips, I only applied the pumpkin pie ink to the inside part of the sunflower.  It really give the petals a realistic look.

Week 2 of the 12 Weeks of Christmas

This weeks post is a Christmas Ornament.  I like to add a new ornament to my Christmas tree each year.  I like it when I can make a ornament or buy a special one for that year.  Do you buy or make an ornament for your Christmas tree each year?

I purchased these natural wood slice from Amazon for this project.  The I used our O Holy Night designer series paper for the background and our dies for the naivety.  This was pretty easy to create.

Week 1 of the 12 Weeks of Christmas

Sorry I have not been posting regularly.  I have so many projects to share with you.  I have been stamping and creating projects, just not getting them posted.  So making some changes to my routine so I will be posting daily to share some of my projects.

I am starting my 12 Weeks of Christmas posts today for this year.  I will be posting a Christmas project for you each week on Monday through December 11, 2023.  All the posts will be a Christmas project (framed piece this week), ornaments, Christmas cards, gift card holders and gift tags.

Today I am sharing a framed JOY in a 4"x6" frame.  I used our large letter framelits (discontinued) because they are wider then the classic letter dies we have.  I did use some of our discontinued product because I made this project for a craft fair at our church.  I stamped the wreath in the center of the white cardstock and the I put the J and Y on with dimensionals. so they are raised.  

Here is the list of supplies used for this project:
