Jingle All The Way!

I have to say I'm not liking these darker evenings, but I do like the thought of lighting the fire, snuggling up under rugs and lighting candles of an evening!

 

So with Christmas creeping nearer towards us, another creation to share with you today, using the new Stamp Set "Jingle All The Way", and in true Stampin' Up! style, it has a co-ordinating set of Edgelits dies that I just so love and I know you will too!

 

 

You can't really tell from this photo but the snow village scene at the bottom is cut using the Glimmer Paper, looks really stunning in real life!

 

I used the Star Border punch for the silver stars and the snow stamp is included in the Jingle All the Way set, perfect!

Christmas Class

My Christmas Classes began in July which seems like ages ago now as we are nearing September!!  We make 10 cards at this class, 2 each of 5 designs and it is proving to be a popular evening so I am guessing everyone is wanting to be ahead of themselves this year, including me!

 

One of the cards at this month's class uses the "Pennant Parade" stamp set, one I haven't used in a while and it is not an obvious Christmas set, more for creating bunting which when turned upside down creates the cutest tree!

 

The stars are also from the same set stamped onto a Circle cut using the Big Shot "Circles #2" die.  This sits perfectly inside the scalloped circle which was die cut using the "Perfect Penants" XL Die with Island Indigo cardstock.

 

 

My colour combo is Pool Party, Island Indigo and Lucky Limeade, these are all In-colours which work so well together. 

 

The Lucky Limeade border was cut using one of the Edgelits with the Big Shot and we used Island Indigo Bakers Twine to wrap around it.

 

The greeting is from another Christmas stamp set called "Contempo Christmas", inked with Early Espresso ink and cut out using the Decorative Label Punch, pierced using the Mat Pack to create a straight even line!

 

More cards from the class to follow in the next few days.

Framing the Romance

This is a card we made recently at my 6 Card Class, clean and simple but stylish in it's own way.

We used the new "Bordering on Romance" stamp set, watercoloured the image using the Aqua Painters and ink from the lids of the ink pads onto the Watercolour paper, the results are lovely.  You will need to use the Black StazOn ink for the outline image otherwise you will get a bleed when you watercolour.

We have used the new Framelits Labels which we then embossed with the Oval Designer Frame, it fits lovely inside then the co-ordinating Oval Punch fits inside that, don't you love how everything works together!  The designer paper is from the "First Edition" pack.

We also used the new Edgelits "elegant edge" (that's my word for it!) along with the co-ordinating embossing folder.  To finish we tied a knot around a small piece of Crochet Trim and Pool Party Ruffled Ribbon.
