Tags, tags, tags

 I haven't been feeling too well for the past couple days, but I couldn't let that keep me from being creative! So I created a few simple tags, mostly for Christmas.


I used the October Stamp of the Month Twinkle and the stamp set from the White Pines cardmaking workshop. It's my usual colour combination - Cranberry, Olive and the White Pine B&T. I got the tags at Michael's in the $1.50 bins - 16 kraft tags and twine! I also used my Swiss Dots embossing folder, and a sparkly holly berry sticker!


For these tags, I wanted to show how versatile a "Christmas" stamp could be. Two tags are Christmas, using the White Pines cardmaking workshop stamp set and the one in the middle could be for any occasion! Just by changing the colour scheme and the sentiment you can make a stamp work for virtually any occasion.

Left: Used Pacifica, Whisper and Glacier inks. And for the sentiment I used Handlettered Christmas.
Center: Used Cashmere, Pomegranate and Eggplant inks.
Right: Used Cranberry, Olive and Cashmere inks.

Merry Christmas Slimline

I did another card from this week's  Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge  (sketch #469). This time, I did a Christmas card! I used Gina K's woodgraining technique (you can find a tutorial here ). I also used Distress Frosted Crystal embossing powder; here's a close-up of the effect: For the snowflakes and the sentiment, I cut the shapes out twice and glued them together to make them thicker. Very happy with how this one turned out! :) Supplies : Dies: Merry Christmas sentiment (unbranded), Tim Holtz Sizzix Holiday Greens Mini, Pink & Main Stitched Slimline, SU! Snowfall Thinlits Paper: SU! Mossy Meadow, Real Red and Very Vanilla cardstock, Recollections Gold Foil cardstock Ink: Distress Oxide Vintage Photo, SU! Crumb Cake Embellishments: Distress Frosted Crystal embossing powder, CTMH Gold Bling Gems

You Did It!

It has been awhile since I participated in the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge , so yesterday I popped on to see what the sketch was this week. I need a graduation card for my niece who is graduating from elementary school this June, so I thought I'd allow this sketch to give me inspiration! This is what I came up with:  I made it in the school colours (red and gray).  This is also (I think) the first time I've ever made a slimline card. I like how it turned out! Supplies: Cardstock: Recollections Black and Gold Foil; SU! Real Red, Smokey Slate, and Whisper White; and Gina K Wild Dandelion Stamps: CTMH You Did It, Just a Little Something, and Time to Celebrate Dies: SU! Stitched Circles and unbranded slimline scalloped rectangle
