You Melt My Heart

Hi Crafty Friends,
I was inspired by the Unity Stamps Show & Tell Create Your Own Background Challenge for these darling snowman cards. I used Unity Stamps Snow Buddies Stamp Set with Gina K Winter Snow Foiling Sheet and Thermoweb Colors of Harmony Shades of Red and Shades of Green Foiling Paper. I love the shimmer and shine so I added sparkle to the snowman's hat and his little snowman baby in front of him.

Make Crafty Friends Q & A:
Q: Do you like foiling?
A: Me? I LOVE it, peeling the foil off the design is so satisfying

Card #1: You Melt My Heart 

Card #2: I Snow Adore You

 

Gnome-made Gingerbread Just For You

I was inspired by the Build Your Holiday Stash Sketch Challenge #63 for this little Jaded Blossom Gingerbread Gnome.

The sentiment is from Jaded Blossom Gnome Baked Stamps Set stamped on Jaded Blossom Scalloped Rectangle Die 1.

A: Me? Probably not but I would like to eat some

Merry Christmas Foxes

Hi Crafty Friends,
I was inspired by the Lawn Fawnatics Challenge #209 Critters Celebrate the Holidays and Caffeinated Christmas Card Challenge #47. The Lawn Fawn Build-a-Fox Critters are soooo cute.

The sentiment is the Lawn Fawn Scripty Merry Die with Lawn Fawn Henry's Winter Words Stamp Set.

Hi Crafty Friends,
I LOVE these little elves from Sugar Pea Designs called Merry Makers. I colored them up in non-traditional Christmas colors to match the fun papers from Doodlebug Designs Oh What Fun.

Make Crafty Friends Q & A:

A: Me? No kids but I think I would love getting creative with Elf on the Shelf

Joyful Angel

Hi Crafty Friends,
I have a gorgeous angel card to share with you featuring Poppy Stamps Nordic Sweet Angel Die 2748. I love the layers of elegance with this die.

Make Crafty Friends Q & A:
Q: Do you put an angel at the top of your tree?
A: Me? No

Step #1: I started my card by die cutting the different pieces of my angel from the Poppy Stamps Vintage Pastel Mirror Pad FP1002 for the wings and halo and Poppy Stamps Birthday Fun Paper Pad PP2100 for the pink parts of her dress. 

Step #2: I created the background using using Poppy Stamps Scalloped Pinpoint Frames 2751 and layered the smaller rectangle with polka dot pattern paper on top of the larger striped pattern paper from the Birthday Pad.

Step #3: I mounted my angel in the center of the smaller rectangle then die cut the Poppy Stamps Nordic Layered Joy Die 2762 and glued it below the angel.

Step #4: I finished my card by adding the Peace on Earth and Joyful Wishes Banners from the Holiday Banners Stamp & Die Set CB517 to the opposite corners of the smaller rectangle.
