Grateful Ian

 

Hello!  Larisa here and today I'm sharing a sweet little gratitude card featuring Ian from the Smile Couple Stamp Set!  

 To create my card, I started with some patterned papers, layered them up, and stitched around the edges with my sewing machine.  Then I stamped out the Ian image, colored him up with Copics, and fussy cut him out.  Using foam tape, I added him and some gold thread to the center of the card.  Underneath the image, I added a wooden sentiment in orange.  Such a simple, but sweet way to say, "thank you!"

Thanks so much for stopping by!  Happy Crafting!

Today, I'm featuring the Gingerbread Xmas set.  This set is packed full of little gingerbread people, sentiments, and accessories! 

For my card, I decided to create a little scene.  I started with some patterned paper and trimmed it to fit my A2 sized card.  Then I die cut a gingerbread house and layered it up with some 3D candy stickers in my stash.  I stamped out my gingerbread people, fussy cut them out, and popped them on to my scene using foam tape.  A fun sentiment across the center of the card finishes it off!

Picket Fence Stamps September 2021 Release!

 Hello, hello!  Today, I'm so excited to share the new Picket Fence Designs Release!  All new goodies are AVAILABLE in the store now!!!!!

For my first card, I used the New BFF Livi Girl Stamp set and coordinating die.  I stamped out my image, colored her up with Copics, and cut her out using the coordinating dies.  Then I created a shaker card in the center of my slim line card base and filled it with the NEW Winter Lady Sequins Mix Plus.  I just love how soft and sweet this card is.  

My next card is a fun little holiday card.  I used the NEW Autumn Field Stamp and stamped it in a dark green on a light green card stock.  Then I trimmed around it and mounted that on some tan card stock.  I die cut the deer from the NEW Deer Family Die Set and added that along with some coordinating papers to the bottom of the card.  A few sequins and a big red bow finish this card off.  

My last card is a fun take on the NEW Torch Ginger Tropical Flower.  I thought it might be fun to create a holiday card.  So I stamped it out, colored it up in reds, and cut it out using the coordinating die.  Then I heat embossed the New Falling Pinecones Stamp in gold embossing powder and added my flower to the center of that.  Some patterned paper, a sweet sentiment, and some silk leaves finish this card off.

For my project I decided to create some hot cocoa holders.  I took a piece of patterned paper, folded it, and stitched down the sides.  It's that easy!  Then decorated the fronts with some die cut hot cocoa mugs and of course some cute little gingerbread people!  I stamped the Merry Christmas sentiment across the back of the pocket and then created some tags using the larger sentiment in the set.  I just love how these turned out!
