Hello! I was recently a guest blogger for Spellbinders on their blog sharing two cards showcasing the Liberty Collection. With the collection, I created a 4th of July card and a Christmas card. I hope you will head over to see my creations, read about the designs, and leave a comment!

Penny Black Christmas Season
Hello! Today I am sharing a CAS holiday card created with Penny Black supplies.
- I stamped the 30-731 Christmas Moments sentiment in gold ink on white cardstock.
- I cut the 51-667 Winter Greens from gold cardstock.
- I cut the birds from red foil with a die in the 51-657 Wildwood set.
- I glued berries, cut with a hole punch from the red foil, to the Winter Greens.
- I glued the Winter Greens assembly to the sentiment panel, added a red cardstock frame (4 1/2″ square), and added the birds with foam adhesive.
Penny Black – Winter Forest
Hello! Today I am sharing a CAS winter-themed card featuring Penny Black supplies, including a die and stamp set from the recently-released Winter Wishes Collection.
- I cut the deer with the 51-660 Dashing die.
- I cut the tree border with the 51-562 Christmas Wonderland die from white cardstock. I trimmed the panel to 4 1/2″ wide and backed some of the trees with colored cardstock.
- I stamped the 30-762 Bright and Light sentiment in white pigment ink on a dark blue cardstock (now retired SU Blueberry Bushel) 4 1/2″ square.
- I adhered the tree border to the sentiment panel and added the deer with foam adhesive.
- To fill the sky, I added snowflakes cut with the 51-268 A Blizzard and 51-080 Around Town sets.
Penny Black Winter Cheer
Hello! Today I am sharing a CAS winter-themed card featuring Penny Black supplies including products from the recently-released Winter Wishes Collection. I’m transitioning from Christmas-themed to winter-themed cards. This card is right in between and uses one of my favorite color schemes for this time of year.
- I stamped the 30-762 Bright and Light sentiment in white pigment ink on teal cardstock (it’s from Gina K and unfortunately no longer available).
- I die-cut the 51-663 Moonlit ornament pieces from white cardstock. I trimmed off the quarter moon from the pine tree layer. I used the front piece to cut silver foil for the ornament topper. I cut a circle from red cardstock and adhered it to the back. I cut the deer from brown cardstock and added him with foam adhesive.
- I cut the boughs and ribbon with the 51-659 Beautified Baubles set.
- I added the pieces to the sentiment panel and the assembly to a textured white cardstock base.
Elizabeth Craft Holiday Birdhouse
Hello! Today I am sharing a CAS holiday card (that was relatively quick to assemble) created with the Elizabeth Craft Holiday Birdhouse die set and Lawn Fawn letters.
- I die-cut the birdhouse pieces from colored cardstock, white cardstock, velvet cardstock, and glitter cardstock.
- Before gluing together, I dry-embossed the main part of the birdhouse with the Taylored Expressions Weathered folder.
- I assembled the birdhouse and added it to a patterned paper base adding the bird with foam adhesive.
- I cut the sentiment from red velvet cardstock using the Lawn Fawn Cole’s ABCs.
