Gingerbread Men

 I am loving the cute little Gingerbread Man from the Scentsational Season Stamp Set.  It makes creating these cards and cash/gift card wallets so easy, especially when they have matching framelit dies.  For even greater value you can purchase the Scentsational Season Bundle (Stamp Set and Holiday Collection Framelit Dies) and save  15%.   Also, just a little hint, I have been creating the little santa hats by using the bird's wing from the Bird Builder Punch.  So much easier than cutting them all by hand.

Supplies used:

Card:  Cardstock - Crumb Cake, Cherry Cobbler, Very Vintage, DSP - Be of Good Cheer, Ink Pads - Crumb Cake, Cherry Cobbler, Stamp Sets - Scentsational Season (Merry Christmas from a retired set), Punches - Word Window and Modern Label, Dies - Holiday Collection Framelits, Houndstooth Embossing Folder, Cherry Cobbler Bakers Twine, Cherry Cobbler Dazzling Details

Stamp Club Creations

We started our new Stamp Club this week and these are the projects we created in the Stamp Club workshops.

I am really loving the Holiday Frame Embossing Folder so wanted to create another card using it.  I am also loving the Ornament Keepsakes stamp set and co-ordinating Dies.  Did you know that you can purchase these two items as a bundle and save 15% on purchasing them separately?

The sentiment is also from a new stamp set More Merry Messages.  Just love this Merry Christmas - what a gorgeous font.  The colours I have used are very simple - Whisper White and Midnight Muse.

Supplies used:  Cardstock - Whisper White, Midnight Muse, Inkpad - Midnight Muse, Stamp Sets - Ornament Keepsakes, More Merry Messages, Dies - Holiday Ornaments Framelits, Holiday Frame Embossing Folder, Midnight Muse Stitched Satin Ribbon

Our next project was to create a set of three gift cards.  I have seen a number of different ideas for gift cards recently using the very versatile Scentsational Season stamp set.  Again, you can purchase the stamp set and matching framelits dies in a bundle at a saving of 15%.  I particularly liked the gift cards I had seen which incorporated Crumb Cake as the base card and decided to keep it simple by stamping and die cutting various images to be attached to the front of the card with a simple sentiment.  Very sweet little cards which you can whip up in no time at all.

Supplies used:  Cardstock - Crumb Cake, Whisper White, Inkpad - Cherry Cobbler, Gumball Green, Crumb Cake, DSP - Snow Festival, Stamp Sets - Scentsational Season, Merry Christmas Sentiment from Teeny Tiny Sentiments,  Cherry Cobbler Bakers Twine, Cherry Cobbler Dazzling Details

Although we didn't create this project in the workshop I also decided to create a little box to hold the gift cards using the Two Tags Die.  I am pretty happy with the way it turned out, although I didn't follow any instructions so it was a bit of trial and error working out the right sizing etc.  Still I think it is a very cute little gift card holder.

Supplies used:  Cardstock - Cherry Cobbler, Whisper White, Inkpads - Cherry Cobbler, Gumball Green, Snow Festival DSP, Stamp Sets - Scentsational Season and Joyous Celebration, Dies - Two Tags, Holiday Collection Framelits, Scallop Edge Border Punch, Cherry Cobbler Scallop Dots Ribbon, Organza Ribbon, In Colour Brad, Cherry Cobbler Bakers Twine

September Card Class

Sharing with you today what we created in Card Class today.  Thought we would start on our Christmas cards as everyone keeps saying it is only 12 weeks until Christmas.

Our first card was very simple using strips of the lovely Be of Good Cheer Christmas Papers and die cutting an ornament with the Holiday Ornaments Framelits Dies.  The ornament has then been partially embossed with the Holiday Frame Embossing Folder.  Finishing touches have been added with twine, some bling and our sentiment.

Supplies used:  Cardstock - Garden Green, Very Vanilla, Be of Good Cheer DSP, Ink - Gumball Green, Stamp Set - Joyous Celebrations, Holiday Ornaments Framelit, Holiday Frame Embossing Folder, Cherry Cobbler Twine, Gemstones





Our second card uses the very cute Gingerbread Men from the Scentsational Season stamp set.  Actually another very simple card to create as this stamp set also has co-ordinating Framelits Dies as well.  Again we have used the Be of Good Cheer Christmas paper.  Love that red striped paper.

The sentiment stamp has come from the very well used and loved Teeny Tiny Sentiments set.
