Pop N Cuts!  My favorite   Here’s a Christmas card using the exclusive SU Pop N Cuts base die and Label insert.  I decorated the outside with Calm Christmas – the dove embossed in silver embossing powder.

On the inside I used Christmas Collectibles and a single stamp – Prince of Peace.  This set goes with the Deco Label Framelits so it works perfectly with the Label insert. 

To get the different colors on the stamp, I inked it up in Pool Party and then went  over the selected words with an Island Indigo Stampin Write Marker.  The ornaments were stamped twice – once in Versamark and embossed in silver and once in Bermuda Bay to punch for the centers.  The ornament lines and accents on the card were cut from the new Silver Foil card stock – so pretty!  The sentiment on the Whisper White piece is half of the sentiment from Calm Christmas – embossed in silver. 

Supplies
Stamp Sets – Calm Christmas, Christmas Collectibles, Prince of Peace
card stock – Whisper White, Bermda Bay, Silver foil, Winter Frost DSP
Ink – Versamark, Bermuda Bay, Pool Party
Etc – SU Pop N Cuts base and Label insert, Deco Label Framelits, Ornament punch, 1/2″ circle punch, rhinestones, Silver ribbon, Scallop Edge punch.

I’ll have some more Halloween for you soon.  Hugs, Fran

This little 4 x 4 tag has Rudolph throwing snowballs.  I stamped the image twice and punch a Window punch between his hands on one image.  Then I layered an embossed circle on a penny and made a spinner.  It slides between his two hands

Card stock – Crumb Cake, Cherry Cobbler, Whisper White
Stampin Write Markers – Crumb Cake, Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive
Ink – Pool Party
Etc – Northern Flurry embossing folder, 7/8″ circle punch, Window punch

These spinners are very addicting!  You can find me rolling it back and forth in my office – Hugs, Fran

Here’s an easy Flip card with Santa staring as the main guy for the season.  I used the Santa from Color Me Christmas, colored him with Stampin Write Markers and punched him out for the circle center of this Thinlit set.  The HO 3 is from A Banner Christmas.  But the Chevrons are the chevron punch – there are chevrons in the set;  I just wanted to see the difference using the punch.  They are much bigger! 

The sentiment is a single stamp that coordinates with the photo cards in the Holiday Mini.  And since I didn’t mention it last time – the chevrons have a piece of Real Red behind them.  (Thanks, Leeca!) 

Supplies
Stamp Sets – Color Me Christmas, A Banner Christmas, Be Very Merry
Card stock – Whisper White, Real Red, Silver Glimmer
Ink – Real Red, Jet Black Stazon
Stampin Write Markers – Real Red, Blush Blossom
Etc – Circle Thinlit flip die, 1 3/4 and 1 1/4 punch, Chevron punch, Dazzling Details (on the candy cane!)

Have a great day!  Hugs, Fran

Be Merry Single Stamp

Single Stamps!  This is a new stamp called Be Merry – it’s a tag with holly and goes with the Chalk Talk framelits.  I added it to the front of a card for a team swap.  The holly leaves are colored in and the berries are punched with the Owl Builder punch. 

First I stamped the tag on a piece of Whisper White that I had stamped with the Dictionary background stamp.  You can see all the Single Stamps here.

Here’s another Thinlit Label Frame card using A Banner Christmas from the Holiday Mini.  To make the banner “pop” I stamped it first in Old Olive and then again in Cherry Cobbler.  I cut out the Cherry Cobbler pieces omitting the little lines on the sides of the letters.  Layer them on the Old Olive banners – letting the Old Olive lines show. 

I finished this off with some Season of Style Washi tape ad a button. 

Supplies
Stamp Set – A Banner Christmas
Card stock – Crumb Cake, Whisper White, Season of Style DSP
Ink – Old Olive, Cherry Cobbler
Etc – Thinlit Label Frame die, Season of Style Washi tape, button, linen thread

While I still had Color Me Christmas out on my desk, I thought I’d try something different with the present stamp and the new Thinlit Label die.  (133479)  It didn’t turn out exactly has I saw it in my mind – but you get the idea!  I love the greeting and sentiment from Christmas Messages ( 131790/ 131793).  Using the Stamp a Ma Jig, I stamped presents across the bottom.  Did you know that the label framelit in the Thinlit set works with the Label Framelit set in the big catalog?  It is perfect for layering!

Next time I’ll try to line it up so that I don’t have a half package showing when the card is folded – but for now, this is it

Team meeting today and I can’t wait to stamp with friends!  Hugs, Fran

Floating Floor Santa Scene

Oh what fun indeed!  This card is a floating floor card cased from Karen Burniston’s video. 

The greeting on the front is from Christmas Messages and is layered on a glittered oval with an ornament punch top.  It’s 2 pieces but the glitter paper really makes it look like one piece. 

And here’s Santa and Rudolph (Color Me Christmas) decorating trees.  There clothes are paper pieced to give them some extra “umph.” 

From the side you can see how the floor looks. 

Rudolph’s nose is a pearl colored with a sharpie marker. 

Supplies
Stamp Sets – Color Me Christmas, Christmas Messages
Card stock – Whisper White, Silver Glitter, Season of Style DSP, Cherry Cobbler, Crumb Cake, Old Olive
Ink – Jet Black Stazon, Cherry Cobbler
Stampin Write Markers – Blush Blossom, Real Red, Basic Black
Etc – SU Pop N Cuts base, Sizzix Ribbon Tree insert, star punch, Oval Framelits, ornament punch, pearl, silver ribbon

I hope you’ll try the floating floor – it’s fun!  Hugs, Fran

There is a cute kit on page 32 of the Holiday Mini (132161) called Real Red Goodie Gear and it’s a good one! The kit contains tags, stickers, banners, cello bags and baker’s twine – fast, easy and very affordable for little gifts or treats.  The colors are Real Red and Bermuda Bay. 

I made a sleigh with my Eclips  (Santa’s Villages/ SVGcuts) to hold a few of the treats.  The “Merry” is the Expressions Thinlit (page 36 #132171.) Quick tip – when using the Thinlits, place a piece of waxed paper between the card stock and the die and it easily releases.  Hugs, Fran

Playing around with Backyard Basics!  I saw a card on Splitcoast that used this layout but in very bright, primary colors.  I switched it to the muted colors in Epic Day Designer Series paper. 

Then I used the new embossing folder in Holiday Mini called Pretty Print and some of the Natural White card stock.  There is a matching framelit set for this set that makes cutting the images a breeze.

Supplies
Stamp Set – Backyard Basics
Ink – Jet Black Stazon, Crumb Cake
Stampin Write Markers – Pool Party, Soft Sky, Tangerine Tango
Etc – Backyard Basic framelits, Natural Trim, Pretty Print embossing folder, Circle framelits, Brights Candy Dots

The weather is beautiful here today.  It’s sunny and cool – perfect!  Hugs, Fran
