Goodbye Snow Much Fun

This was one of my “go to” Christmas sets so I’m shedding a few tears to see it go.  I took this one to convention last year for swapping.  The little tree is stamped in Stazon and colored with a Pear Pizzaz marker.  The ornaments are then filled with Crystal Effects. 



The “brad” on the tag is a circle punch covered with Crystal Effects.  You can imagine the spread as they dried – and I tried to keep my silly cat off of them!  


Supplies
Stamp sets – Snow Much Fun, Tiny Tags
card stock – Poppy Parade, Pear Pizzazz, Whisper White, Poppy Parade DSP, Pear Pizzazz DSP
Ink – Jet Black Stazon
Stampin Write Markers – Poppy Parade, Pear Pizzazz, Daffodil Delight, Chocolate Chip, Bashful Blue
Etc – Crystal Effects, Poppy Parade ribbon, Tiny tag punch


The funny thing about this card is that I grabbed a Pear Pizzaz and a Lucky Limeade marker – and didn’t realize it until I was finished coloring.  It worked!  If you’re going to start your Christmas cards early, now’s the time to shop.  The Holiday mini comes out August 1 – so if you’re an early starter, go through the retiring list!   Hugs, Fran

Tiny Tag Tree

I have jars and jars of buttons (!) so when I saw this idea of creating a tree with them, I jumped on it!  (And it didn’t even leave a dent in my button jars)  I started by making a triangle the size that I wanted for the card and then choosing buttons, pearls and beads to fill it in.  Some of the buttons are various clear buttons from SU that I backed with Comfort Cafe Designer Series and Silver Glimmer paper.  I threaded most of them with linen thread – some are just topped with pearls.

Sometimes I think Stampin Up is looking in my window because as soon as I decided to add the Tiny Tags “Merry”, it went on the Retiring List!  (So hurry up and grab it before it’s gone!)  The Snowflakes are cut with my Snow Flurry die – which is steel ruled and cuts through the Glimmer paper beautifully.  I added lots of Dazzling Details – sparkle, sparkle!

Supplies
Stamp Set – Tiny Tags
Card stock – Whisper White, Neutral Pack, Soft Suede, Comfort Cafe Designer Series paper, Silver Glimmer paper
Ink – Soft Suede
Etc – BUTTONS!, Snow Flurry die, linen thread, Dazzling Diamonds, glue, pearls, beads

I think there are lots of designs that could be done with buttons – so grab your jars of buttons (please tell me you have them too) and start creating!  Hugs, Fran

On Sunday we had a team meeting and did a shoebox swap.  This is where everyone brings all the supplies ready for us to make their card.  It’s fun!  My friend, Anne, designed this card for the swap.  She’s a beach lover (and I thought of her as soon as I saw this set in the catalog!) 

Supplies
Stamp Sets – By the Tide, Tiny Tags
card stock – Pool Party, Island Indigo, Whisper White
Ink – Calypso Coral, Island Indigo
Etc – Fan embossing folder, Pool Party button, Tangerine Tango ribbon, Small curly punch

Isn’t it cute?  She’s let me borrow her set this week so hopefully I’ll get to play a bit.  Hugs, Fran

Love the little Dahlias!  Aren’t they cute as a Christmas tree?

Supplies
Stamp Set – Tiny Tags
card stock – Cherry Cobbler, Very Vanilla, Chocolate Chip, Champagne Glitter paper,  Be of Good Cheer DSP
Stampin Write Markers – Cherry Cobbler, Gumball Green
Etc – Tasteful Trim die, Dahlias, Linen Thread, Top Note die, star punch, Little Label punch

The dahlias can be applied with glue dots.  I used glue so that I would have a little wiggle room in getting them lined up straight.  Use a ruler to line up the bottom row. 

Hugs, Fran

I found a card on Stampin Connections by Yvette Ashe that I love – love the set, love the colors, love the layout.  So I cased it!  I changed just a few small things – added a butterfly, added some Attic Boutique DSP and some color – but kept everything else. 

Supplies
Stamp Sets – Rue des Fleur, Tiny Tags
card stock – Whisper White, Pool Party, Attic Boutique DSP
Ink – Soft Suede
Stampin Write Marker – Pool Party
Etc – Adorning Accents Labels Framelits, Pool Party seam binding, Embosslit Beautiful Wings, 3/4″ circle punch, Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder, Basic pearls

The consensus is that Rue des Fleur means  “Street of Flowers.”  Thanks to Melannie and Shannon who sent me translations.  Believe it or not, I’m actually taking a beginning French class so you may see a few french sentiments in the future.  Samantha is in AP French 5 so I occasionally buy sets in french for her.  (I just can’t read them!)  Enjoy!  Hugs, Fran

Frostwood Lodge DSP is not just for Christmas!  The beautiful designs can be used for lots of other seasons and occassions.  Here’s a card I did using this DSP that could be sent any time of year –



It’s a very simple card and easy to create.  The coloring is done with Stampin Write Markers. I love how one of the circles from the Pennant die matches the Scallop Trim border punch.

Ink – Jet Black Stazon
Stampin Write Markers – Cherry Cobbler, Marina Mist, Crumb Cake

This is the same, traditional tree that I made in the assembly video.  Since I didn’t have another bucket, I went on a search for another container.  What I came across is a small, Christmas box that ended up being an exact match to Riding Hood Red! 



I added some Old Olive satin ribbon and a few tags from Tiny Tags on a Vintage Trinket pin.



I promise to show you something else tomorrow!  I’m just having too much fun with these trees   Enjoy!  Hugs, Fran
