Hello friends!

It's Yainea here today with some Winter-y inspiration for you! Where I live now it doesn't snow at all but I remember the joy, when I was a little girl, of waking up in the morning and discover everything covered by the snow. I love snowy landscapes, everything looks peaceful and brand new. And so, I love creating snowy scenes like this one!

Winter friends are the perfect main characters because they are too cute! I love how each one of them are dealing with their own little business so you can use them for a lot of different cards.

I used Distress inks to create the backgrouns and alcohol markers to color the critters and trees. The sentiment and snowflakes in the background were heat embossed with white embossing powder.

I hope you like my card and feel inspired to create with these cuties!

Thank you so much for stopping by, have a wonderful day!

Hi crafty friends!

It's Noga here today and I am so excited to share with you another Christmas project showcasing the super adorable O Tiny Tree  stamps and dies.

I really enjoyed creating this cute card :)

To make this card I took an A2 panel of bristol smooth cardstock. I used  spun sugar distress oxide ink to blend a background, next I took another A2 panel of white cardstock and used the Snow Scene Elle-Ments to cut this shape and glued this panel on the first panel.

The sweet images were colored with copic markers and were glued with foam tape for dimension and the sentence was stamped using black ink from Winter Friends Clear Stamps.

I added Raspberry Hemp Twine for a final touch.

Santa Jaws &Joyeux Narwhal With Heather

Hello everyone! It's Heather Campbell here and today I've got another two project post for you! However, I've also got a video for you too - so don't forget to watch that too! 

First up, Santa Jaws. I must say, Santa Jaws is probably the set I was most excited to play with come this release. I could barely decide what shark I wanted to play with when it came time to create this project. 

Here's my first card...

To create this card, I created an ink blended background and then

 

I added some gel pen and glossy accents to top off this card. So fun, right!?

Next up - Joyeux Narwhal!

Instead of a card, I decided to create some fun tags with the very fun Holiday Circle Tags.  

Now for the video... 

Santa Jaws & Nordic Patterns With Yainea

Hi there!

It's Yainea here with a fun Christmas card featuring Santa Jaws stamps and coordinating dies. This set is too awesome, I love all the puns and the cute festive critters.

I wanted to play with Nordic Patterns stamps to create my background, I really love this set, is just perfect for creating Christmas and Winter backgrounds and it does like cool embossed over colored cardstock.

Because of the patterned background I wanted to keep the card simple, I softened it with a piece of vellum and added a tag to place the card, which I colored with alcohol markers. For the card I used some paper from the Holiday Collection paper pack, it's full of colorful and pretty designs!

I hope you enjoyed my project for today and feel inspired to create! Thank you so much for stopping by, have a great day!

Santa Jaws & Joyeux Narwhal With Katie

Hello friends, 

Katie here to share greetings of the "sea-son." I have two cards featuring the underwater friends from the Santa Jaws and Joyous Narwhal stamp sets. 

First is a card featuring the friendly sharks from the Santa Jaws set. I stamped the images and some of the accessories on white cardstock and colored in the images with Comic markers. 

I die cut the stamped images and blended a panel of water color card stock with Distress Oxide ink in Salty Ocean. I used the Sea Scene Elle-ments die to cut the blended panel. I adhered the die cut to a white card base, added my stamped images and stamped the sentiment in black ink. 

Supplies: 

Santa Jaws Clear Stamps

Die- Santa Jaws Elle-ments

Die: Sea Scene Elle-ments

My second card uses the Joyeux Narwhal stamp set. I blended a watercolor panel with several shades of Distress Oxide ink and layered white card stock die cut with the Waves Elle-ments die. 

I stamped the critters onto white card stock and colored them with Copic markers before die cutting them with the coordinating Elle-ments die and adhering them to the card. I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of black card stock with VersaMark ink and heat embossed it with white embossing powder. As a finishing touch, I added a few clear sequins. 

Supplies: 

Joyeux Narwhal Clear Stamps

Die: Joyeux Narwhal Elle-ments

Santa Jaws & Joyeux Narwhal With Elena

Hi there!

I have 2 cards to share with you today, and both mix and match 2 sets from our current release: Santa Jaws and Joyeux Narwhal.

This first card is my fave! I did some ink blending on the background layer, darker around the edges, blending to a highlight in the middle. I wanted to really make Santa Jaws the star of this show! All of the other sea friends are coming to see what he has for them, hee hee. 

My favorite animal from Joyeux Narwhal is this sweet sea-turtle. ack! Isn't he so cute? I stamped him x3 and added a sentiment to the bottom of the card to balance things out. Behind the turtles, I used a sheet of bubble paper from The Holiday Collection Paper Pad, and used the Waves die to cut it out. The effect is very "deep-sea" - no?

I hope you like my cards for today! Thanks for stopping by!

Peek-A-Boo Christmas Train & Winter Friends With Katie

Hi friends, 

Katie here with a double dose of Christmas inspiration to share with you. First up, a slimline card featuring the Peek-A-Boo Christmas Train stamp set. 

I cut a panel of watercolor card stock to 3.5 x 8" and blended the top third with Distress Oxide ink in Mustard Seed. I spatter the blended ink with white paint to create gently falling snow. 

I stamped the Christmas Engine and a few extra train cars and colored them with Copic Markers. I filled the cars with lots of holiday goodies and some old friends from the Peek-A-Boo Polar Pals stamp set. 

Supplies: 

Peek-A-Boo Christmas Train Clear Stamps

Die- Peek-A-Boo Christmas Train Elle-ments

Die- Polar Peek-A-Boo Pals Elle-ments

Next I have a card using the Winter Friends stamps. This set is just so charming and creates the most enchanting scene when paired with Woodland Scene Builder. 

I stamped the Woodland Scene at the top of a card panel and colored it with Copic Markers. I layered  the panel with white card stock cut with the Dotted Borders Elle-ments die. 

I stamped, colored and die cut the Winter Friends and arranged them on the scene skating, sledding and keeping warm from the cold. 

Supplies:

Winter Friends Clear Stamps

Die- Winter Friends Elle-ments

Peek-A-Boo Christmas Train with Amy

Hello friends! 

 Amy here today with a fun scene for the holidays.  The nostalgia of a train at the holidays is one of my favorites.  

Peek-A-Boo Christmas Train is another addition to the Peek-A-Boo series.  This adorable reindeer was Copic colored and added to the engine that was colored with bright red details with a bit of holly to decorate the stack.  The car is hauling a traditional tree along with a sack of goodies.  The scene was added along with a Wonky Scalloped Frame over a snowy sky that was spritzed with Clear Shimmer Spray.  The card was meant to be sentimentless as it can be stamped on the inside along with a personal message.

Happy Holidays with Caryn

Hey there.  Caryn popping in with a festive little card featuring the Peek-a-Boo Christmas Train stamp set and the Happy Holidays die.  I decided to take the elements from set and create a scene based around the large Happy Holidays sentiment rather than in the train.  It's sometimes fun to mix and match the sets up!

I die cut the Happy Holidays from red card then to give it a fun, snow-covered look I used a product that's quite new to me - Neon Amplify from Tsukineko.  It's a pigment ink that puffs up like snow when you heat it with a heat gun.  It's very addictive - be warned!

For my card base I used some snowfall paper from the Holidays Paper Pad and set it behind a white Postage stamp frame (now retired).  I added this to the card front then stamped, coloured and die cut my reindeer, tree and presents and tucked them into the frame.  To finish I added some glitter here and there for extra sparkle!

Supplies used

 Peek-a-Boo Christmas Train stamp set 

 Happy Holidays die.

Christmas Mice with Katie

Hi everyone!

Katie here with a card to share with you featuring the adorable Christmas Mice stamp set. 

I stamped the mice and accessories onto white card stock and colored them with Copic markers. I die cut the stamped images using the coordinating Elle-ments dies. 

For the background, I blended three shades of Distress Oxide ink (Lucky Clover, Evergreen Bough and Peacock Feathers) and spattered the blended background with white paint. 

I die cut the Happy Holidays Elle-ments die from a panel watercolor card stock blended with red ink. I die cut it second time from white glitter card stock. I layered the two die cuts and offset them slightly to create a three dimensional look. 

I stamped the sentiment in black ink and adhered the mice and accessories to the bottom of the card panel. 

Here is a video of how it all came together.
