Hi there! Tonight I have a card for this week's Sweet Sunday Sketches challenge.

I thought the sketch was so fun and it inspired me to use the new MFT Hot Cocoa Cups dies. I cut my panels and die cut all my pieces. I used a snowflake embossing folder to emboss the background of the white panel and I stamped the red panel behind the circle with a diagonal stripes background stamp. I stamped sprinkles on the whipped cream and by the bottom of the cup and then stamped my sentiment. I adhered everything to a white card base.

My Supplies: 

Stamps: MFT LLD Hug In a Mug, MFT BG Bold Diagonal Stripes Background

Dies: MFT LLD Hot Cocoa Cups, MFT Die-namics Fishtail Flag Stax, MFT Let it Snowflake, MFT Die-namics Circle Stax

Ink: PTI Pure Poppy, PTI True Black

Paper: PTI Pure Poppy, PTI Dark Chocolate, PTI Stamper's Select White

Thank you so much for coming by! I hope everyone who celebrates has a wonderful and Happy Thanksgiving!

Papertrey Ink November 2015 Blog Hop

Hi there! When I first saw the inspiration photo for this month's Papertrey Ink blog hop I knew I would be participating. Everything about it is gorgeous!

I took inspiration from the white and teals and used some of this month's new products. I die cut all my pieces and cut a panel a little smaller than the Winter Woods cover plate for a background. I blended some Aqua Mist ink onto the panel and stamped some snowflakes in Hawaiian Shores. I stamped all of my die cuts, decided on placement, and adhered everything to a white card base. 

My Supplies:

Stamps: PTI Winter Woods, PTI Fab Flakes

Dies: PTI Winter Woods & Cover Plate, PTI Fab Flakes

Ink: PTI Aqua Mist, PTI Hawaiian Shores, PTI Tropical Teal, PTI Stormy Sea

Paper: PTI Stamper's Select White

Thank you so much for coming by! I can't wait to see everyone else's projects!

Blue & White Snowflakes

Hi there! Today I have a card I made for this week's Merry Monday and City Crafter challenges.

I took the colors and texture from Merry Monday and incorporated the snow queen theme from City Crafter by using snowflakes.

I began by cutting panels and die cutting the snowflakes. I used a Sizzix snowflake embossing folder to emboss the background, stamped the snowflakes, and stamped the sentiment on the smaller panel. I then adhered everything to a white card front. 

My Supplies: 

Stamps: PTI Christmas Cheer, PTI Fab Flakes

Dies: PTI Fab Flakes

Ink: PTI Enchanted Evening, PTI Blueberry Sky, PTI Spring Rain

Paper: PTI Stamper's Select White

Birthday Wishes

Hi there! For my second post today I made a card for Freshly Made Sketches.

I was super excited about this week's sketch because I just got a new paper pad from Michael's and I thought it would go great with a new PTI stamp set. I die cut and trimmed all my pieces and stamped the bird and the sentiment. This card evolved as I was making it because originally I just had the bird on the branch and I felt like it was too plain. First I die cut the tree and added it to the left side. That grounded the branch but it still needed something so I grabbed another new stamp set and stamped a few snowflakes. I love the way it turned out. 

My Supplies: 

Stamps: PTI Winter Woods, PTI Fab Flakes

Dies: PTI Winter Woods, MFT Die-namics Blueprint 13

Ink: PTI Pure Poppy, PTI True Black

Paper: PTI Soft Stone, PTI Pure Poppy, PTI Stamper's Select White, DCWV Cranberry Christmas 

Thank you for coming by! I hope you have a fabulous weekend!
