Snowflakes and Friends Winter Card

Hello and welcome!  This is Shanna from Caffeinated Craftiness here today with a fun and easy card project! January is full of chilly mornings and playdates in the snow....So I decided to pay tribute with this snowman card!

I grabbed the Snowman and Bird stamp that was released in December and had fun creating this simple a2 card!  I colored the image in with my Copic Markers and then fussy cut him out.  Next, I dry embossed a white card panel using a 3d tree embossing folder I had in my stash.  I adhered the white panel to an A2 card base.  To help ground the image some, I grabbed a scrap of navy cardstock and used a glitter paste and snow stencil to add some glitz and dimension.  I mounted the snowman onto the navy strip after it was dry and then glued it to the tree panel.

For my sentiment I die cut a circle, then stamped the sentiment, Friends are Flakes, off-center on the circle, so I could trip the top and side off to line up with the card!  

Are you all done with your winter crafting and starting on spring cards??  Or are you like me and doing a bit of both still?

Charlie Brown Christmas Tree Card

 Hello, Nadine here today! Can you believe it is almost Christmas? Today I am sharing is one of the many Christmas cards I have made this year. A Charlie Brown & Sentiment Christmas Tree card.

To create my card, I first stamped the Charlie Brown Tree Stamp on a white piece of cardstock and the Not What's Under The Tree Sentiment Stamp right under it. Then I colored the tree with some Copics which was not a lot of coloring and added a little sparkle to the ornament with a glitter pen.

Around the outside edge of the white cardstock piece, I used an ink blender brush to add some blue ink just around the edges leaving the center of the card white. Then I randomly stamped the Snowflake Stamps in different sizes around the outside edge using VersaMark and heat embossed them with white embossing powder. Then flicked on some of the glitter from the glitter pen.

Stamps Used:
Charlie Brown Tree & Saying Set

Blowing Snowflake Winter Tree Card

Happy December! Ericka here and if you are like me, your are still making and sending out your Christmas cards. No matter how early I start, it seems like I can never make enough and get them all mailed out in time. Well, today I have an easy and quick Christmas card that you can make multiples of using different colors.

I started with Bristol Smooth paper and blended Distress Oxides in Squeezed Lemonade, Peacock Feathers, and Lucky Clover. I then used my spray bottle to spritz the background and lift off some of the ink. Once my panel was dry, I stamped the Blowing Snowflake Tree and Peace sentiment and heat embossed them in gold.

I love all the Blowing Tree images and the beautiful details each of them has for the different seasons.

 Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful week.

First, I stamped the Chuck the Squirrel and the Winter Sucks Sentiment onto smooth white cardstock. Then on a separate piece of cardstock, I stamped the Acorns. I used the images included on the Chuck the Squirrel Set of 3. These images are also available individually.

I colored the Chuck the Squirrel with Illustrator Markers also from Spectrum Noir. The colors that I used were TN2, TN3, TN4, EB6, and FS6.

To continue with the card, I colored the Acorns with TriBlend Brush Marker from Spectrum Noir. The colors that I used were Yellow Green Blend and Alpine Green Blend, Additionally, I fussy cut them with scissors and left them aside for a while. With a stencil and Pumice Harmony Water Reactive Ink, I created the background around the colored images.

Hot Chocolate Hugs and New Card Kits

Hi again! This is Shanna with Caffeinated Craftiness here with a project featuring a few of the amazing red rubber stamps from Crackerbox Stamps! Happy November too!  I am going to give you guys a peek at the brand new card kits being featured this month---and they are so cute!!

This month starts off with Holiday Cardmaking made easy with kits!  Card kit 17 and card kit 18 are both perfect for Christmas crafting.  Both kits feature a fun fold card that comes precut and scored and ready to go!  This month's fun fold is a bib card, with a festive red panel!

I used a few stamps from Kit 17 in my project today. Did you know you can also purchase the stamps individually if you wanted them without the rest of the kit??  The Hot Chocolate Hug saying sentiment is adorable and super versatile for winter crafts, and the Hot Chocolate mug is the perfect size for cards or tag making too!  The snowman featured in this kit is super adorable in its own right---and I will have a card soon with him as well ;)

My card was fun and easy to put together.  First I stamped the Hot chocolate mug directly onto the card base, centering in the middle of the circle.  I found it easiest to do this whit the card base closed.  I Copic colored the mug and then moved onto my bib panel.  I used red ink and stamped the mug all over the back so there was a tone-on-tone background.  I quickly heat set that so I could emboss my Hot Chocolate saying sentiment onto the front in white embossing powder.  By heat setting the panel first, I assured the red ink was completely dry.  To finish the card all I needed to do was adhere the red bib panel to the form of the pre-made card base!  EASY!

Have you started on your Christmas cards yet??  How many do you usually make??  I have a few more designs in my head left with these new kits---so stay tuned! 

Be sure to follow along with me over on Instagram and Facebook to keep up with all my caffeinated adventures! Till next time, bye!
