Sloth Swing

Welcome to Sneak Peek Week for the new January 2018 Stampendous catalog!!  All week the Design Team will be sharing their favorite cards from the catalog.  One of my favorites is this card made with the cute Sloth Swing stamp, I laugh every time I see him.  He's layered on a stenciled background, it's so easy to make and has a jungle feel.

2.  Stencil Small Fern Frond with green inks on a white panel.
3.  Glue stenciled panel to a larger green panel and glue to a green card.
4.  Layer image to green and black die cut circles and glue to card.
5.  Stamp sentiment on bottom left with black ink.

Celebrate Your Birthday!

Even though it's Christmas time, don't forget to send out those birthday cards for the December birthdays!  Luckily the theme for my stamp club was birthdays, because I was running pretty low.  Now my stash is replenished.
This was my card, I'm a paper hoarder and decided it was time to use!!

It was a quick and easy card which was good since I needed to make multiples.  The balloon die is an old one from Sizzix and the sentiment is from Stampendous.  After the ballons were glued down and the sentiment was stamped, I drew the strings using a fine tip black marker.  The strip of glitter paper at the bottom is to cover up the ends of the string.

I'm entering this in the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Party Time.

Oh Christmas Tree

I love this two-part Watercolor Christmas Tree and the matching Watercolor Christmas Tree Die Cut! I posted a card using this stamp last month and the card looks completely different, here it is below and you can see the original post HERE.

 

Getting stamps that can be used to make cards that will look completely different is a good way to get more bang for your buck!

To make today's card,

1.  I inked the stamp with Twisted Citron, then randomly dabbed the tree with Mowed Lawn and Pine Needles. 

2.  Before I stamped it on watercolor paper, I wiped off the stem and colored it with a brown Zig Clean Color Real Brush Marker.  

3.  Then the stamp was spritzed with water several times and stamped.  The stamped was cleaned and the process was done again for the second tree.  

4.  The third tree was done the same way but stamped on a separate sheet of watercolor paper, dried then the lights were stamped in black, embossed with clear and it was die cut and set aside.

5.  A mask was placed over the trees and blue ink was sponged around them and water down blue ink was splattered on the panel before the masks were removed.

6.  Drops of White Nuvo Drops were added to the tree and die cut snowflakes were glued on. The panel was then layered onto black and mounted to a kraft colored card.  The die cut tree was then popped up in the middle of the two trees.

Pinecone Decoration

The count down is on and I'm still not done with my cards...uh oh!  The Pinecone Decoration stamp from Stampendous is pretty and festive.  It's colored with Prisma Pencils and the Fitted Frames B Die Set was used to cut it out and to layer it on a larger black frame. I added a touch of gold with the Champagne PEARLustre Embossing Powder, Dot Sparklers and the gold cord bow at the top.

Christmas Roses

Today's Christmas Roses card has so much going on like stamps, stencils, die cuts, embossing powder and Dot Sparklers! All of these come together to create a beautiful Christmas card.

Here's how it was made:

1.  The Stampendous Christmas Roses is colored with Prisma pencils then die cut with Fitted Frames.  

2.  The background is stenciled with Bricks Metal Stencil, I didn't mask the image, just placed the stencil over the stamped image and sponged through the stencil, starting at the outside edge moving inward, being careful to stop before I got to the image.  

3.  The red die cut piece was sprinkled with Shabby White Embossing Enamel and heated from underneath so the powder wasn't blown off. That was then layered onto a Brick stencil panel and all pieces were mounted on a red card. 4.  The sentiment was stamped and embossed on a red strip and glued to the top of the card.

Joy Has Come

If you haven't started on your Christmas cards, you better hop to it!!  The Joy Has Come stamp from Stampendous makes for a quick Christmas card when paired with a watercolor back ground.  Joy Has Come was stamped with VersaMark Ink and embossed with Champagne Embossing Powder. It's then die cut with Fitted Frames and layered against a watercolor background made with blue and brown Distress Inks.  A frame die cut from blue glitter paper is then layered over the sentiment.
