Thankful and new background stamp

Our challenge this week on Stampin Sisters in Christ is to be thankful.  This pretty new scrolled vine background stamp from Just Rite stamps is perfect for that.  I used a fancy tag from Spellbinders and the matching Want 2 Scrap pearls.  The butterfly and leaves are from Michaels.  Distressed tea dye ink was used and copper peel off thank you.  Be sure to check out both the sites to see some gorgeous creations by the design teams.

From our home to yours

This pretty metallic cream, gold and burgundy card is for the challenge on Our Daily Bread Design blog.  This Christmas Door set is so versatile.  I stamped in versamark, embossed in gold and added some burgundy touches to it with copic markers. I used the
coved scalloped rectangle XL stacker dies from Cheery Lynn to cut out the shapes.  The cute sleighs are from the sleigh border die and I colored them with copics. I colored the glittered snowflakes with a copic marker to match and some ribbon from Michaels to finish the card.  18K gold pen used to edge everything.  Be sure to check out the gorgeous cards on Our Daily Bread Design today, they are beautiful!!!!

Flourishes noon challenge, red, white, green

Our challenge is red, white and green, I added a touch of blue in the ornaments.  This beautiful image is from A gift for you collections.  It matches Spellbinders labels 14 and 15.  I stamped and colored this with Spica glitter pens, added the Want 2 Scrap bling and lots of bling from Michaels.  The paper is from my stash.  Trimmed the die cuts in gold pen and gold peel off corners to finish the card.

This pretty tag is for the challenge on Flourishes.  This cute set of stamps is from the Warm Winter Wishes and I colored them with copics, cut them out and added some glitter.  Check out the DT creations and a chance to win the new set coming out next week.  I added the saying from the same set and some bling from Michaels. 

Belli Challenge Paper Piercing

Our challenge on Belli this week is paper piercing. I used a 4 prong needle to cut out the image.  I embossed the frame and candle stamp in gold. Colored with memento markers on the vellum.  Gold mirror card under the red and green for the card base.  The stamps can be purchased at Sweet Stamps.   The DT cards are fantastic so Check them out and join us at Creative Belli. 

Flourishes, Beauty of a Fold

This pretty center fold card is for the challenge on Flourishes
I used a Martha Stewart punch for the edges and the 5x5" square, Cheery Lynn Designs stacked doily, scalloped circle and fern dies.  I stamped and gold embossed this all time favorite image of the doves in gold on Poison Ivory paper and sponged tea dye distressed ink around all pieces.  The sentiment is from the same set and I gold embossed it also.    Be sure to stop over at Flourishes and check out the gorgeous creations!!!!  I'm also entering this in the
Stampin Sisters in Christ challenge to use an old stamp, I don't think I had ever used this smaller version of this set. Be sure to check out the DT cards on SSIC also, some beautiful inspiration there.  I just love the elegance of this set and it's still available!!!
