Penny Black – Bring on the Snow
Hello! Today I am sharing a winter-themed card created with a new Penny Black sentiment set 30-852 Fresh Snow paired with additional die sets. I used the same design on a card here.
- For the background, stamp 40-706 Snowflake Pattern in white ink on Taylored Expressions Earl Grey cardstock.
- Heat-emboss the sentiment in silver 30-852 Fresh Snow on light blue cardstock and cut with the 51-053 A Pocket Full die. Use same die to cut vellum.
- Cut penguin and snowbank with the 51-668 Festive Family die set. I used the same set on this card.
- Die-cut snowflakes with the 51-708 Dancing Snowflakes set.
- Add sentiment panel, vellum, penguins, snowbank, and snowflakes to card base.
Penny Black Christmas – Simple Joys of Christmas
Hello! Today I am sharing a Christmas card created with a new Penny Black sentiment set 30-849 Hearts Come Home paired with their Christmas products from past years. This sentiment aptly expresses my thoughts about Christmas!
- For the background, stamp 40-706 Snowflake Pattern in white ink on Taylored Expressions Red Pepper cardstock.
- Stamp 30-849 Hearts Come Home in black ink on white cardstock and cut with the 51-053 A Pocket Full die. Use same die to cut vellum.
- From Noble Fir cardstock, cut boughs with 51-659 Beautiful Baubles die (four times). Adhere boughs.
- Cut 51-275 Winter Lantern from Brushed Gold cardstock and red cardstock. Back gold lanterns with white cardstock. Trim red candles and apply Yellow Stickles for flames. When dry, adhere to gold lanterns.
- Add sentiment, vellum, boughs, and lanterns to card base.
I have used the 51-275 Winter Lantern set previously here and here. I used the 51-659 Beautiful Baubles set here.
Memory Box – Adventure Awaits
Hello! A more apt title for this post might be “Summer Has Sailed Away”! I created this CAS, nautical-themed card with a Memory Box die set, a Memory Box stamp set, and a Reverse Confetti frame die. I previous used the Marina Sailboats on this card.
- I cut the Marina Sailboats from red, white, and navy cardstock. I trimmed pieces to change the color of the hulls.
- I applied Distress Oxide inks to a background piece and set it aside.
- I cut the frame and stamped the You Anchor Me sentiment using a stamping tool.
- I added the Distress Oxide panel to the back of the frame and the sailboats to the scene.
Supplies: Memory Box YOU ANCHOR ME stamp set; Memory Box MARINA SAILBOATS die set; Reverse Confetti Double Stitch Window Cover Panel Confetti Cuts
Spellbinders All Aboard Christmas Kit 2021 Part Three
Hello! Today, I am sharing more holiday cards created with the Spellbinders All Aboard Christmas Kit. I shared a card created with the kit’s 13-piece die set here and holiday cards created with the kit’s contents here.
Similar to the cards from yesterday, these cards were made using the kit’s patterned paper, card bases, gemstones, die-cut shapes (the deer on the left), and gift tags (shown below).
