Cardmaking and Scrapbooking with Jean Manis
I’m delighted to announce that I’m joining the Taylored Expressions team! You can read about it here. I created this card using Taylored Expressions stamps and dies in celebration!
Head on over to the Taylored Expressions blog to enter a giveaway for the Eventful – Night Before Christmas and On Dasher, On Dancer dies!

I’m featured over at the Reverse Confetti Blog today in the CONFETTI CAMERA, whose theme is “Set it Up”!
Here’s a sneak of my set of CAS holiday cards featuring the Layered Snowflake Confetti Cuts set in non-traditional colors:
Today, I’m sharing a holiday card featuring one of the images from Taylored Expressions Deck the Halls, which I colored with Copic markers and fussy cut.
I cut the hill with the Taylored Expressions Build A Scene – Rolling Hills die set and added trees from two other Build a Scene sets – Winter Trees and Central Park. The patch of ice (which I decided to cut in a whimsical color) was cut with a die in the Central Park set. The sentiment is from the TE Share the Light stamp set. The snowflakes were cut with the TE Little Bits – Snowflake Confetti set.
The giveaway is now closed.
Welcome to the Holiday II Essentials by Ellen Release Hop! I’m showcasing several of the new stamp sets and dies today! My first project showcases the Autumn Acorns stamp set with the just-released Autumn Acorns die set.
I colored white cardstock with a variety of Distress Inks. I then stamped the images with Potting Soil ink and cut them with their corresponding dies. I also added a few colored die cut leaves, created with the just-released Gourd Jus die set, along with a die cut sentiment from the Zipper Panel set.
My second project features a heat-embossed sentiment from the Holly Jolly set combined with die cuts from the Poinsettia & Pine set.
I cut the pine sprigs and berries from watercolor paper colored with Distress Ink Sprays. To finish off the card, I added some gold sequins.
For my final project, I created a CAS card with the Holly Jolly set (sentiment stamped in Love Letter and pines stamped in Olive Grove) with the adorable Santa and reindeer image from the Santa’s Flight set (stamped in Gray Flannel).

I’m playing along with the CAS(E) this Sketch #144 Challenge.
I love repetition and the Taylored Expressions Little Bits Present die set seemed perfect for this sketch.
I cut the presents from both green and red cardstock and topped them with die cut silver foil ribbons. I stamped a sentiment from the Taylored Expressions Deck the Halls set and heat embossed it with Ranger Super Fine Silver Embossing Powder onto the card base. The presents were added with dimensional adhesive.
