Christmas Theme & Giveaway Week- Day 5

Hello Friends! It is Melody here on the blog today sharing my project for the Christmas Theme Week. If you are like me, you are finishing off those last few Christmas cards to give over the next few weeks. Here is my card I created with the Christmas Friends Stamp set.

First I created the background of the card front. I stamped the snowflakes from the Winter Wonderland Stamp Set on white card stock in a white pigment ink and embossed with white embossing powder. Next I used a blending tool to ink the background with distress ink. I cut the smaller circle in the Scallop Circles Dies from kraft card stock. Inside the circle I stamped branches and a sentiment from the Holiday Greetings Stamp Set and added a few 4mm Metallic Gold Sequins and 3mm Clear Sparkling Sequins.

The boy and girl are colored with Copic Markers and die cut with the Christmas Friends Coordinating Dies. The border is cut with one of the dies in the Stitched Borders 2 Die. I added a patterned paper below the border.

At this busy time of year I like to finish off the inside of my cards so that my cards are ready to go when I need them. I decided I wanted this card to hold a gift card. I used the Peekaboo Windows Die to create the pocket and stamped a sentiment from the Christmas Friends Stamp Set. Just remember when you adhere the inside panel to the inside of the card to leave the middle section open so that you can slide the gift card inside the pocket.

Now it’s time for our giveaway for today. Paulina is giving away a $25 Simon Says Stamp gift certificate! All you have to do is leave a comment sharing your favorite craft blogs to follow.

Christmas Theme & Giveaway Week- Day 4

Hello Everyone, Joni here sharing a Christmas card for our special Christmas Theme & Giveaway Week.

For this project, I used some Diamond Stickles to give sparkles on the die-cut images. I also added some of the ¼ Iridescent Star Confetti everywhere on my card, which is my new fave for this season.

To begin, I distressed my card panel with Tim Holtz Distress Inks in Peacock Feather, Mowed Lawn, and Tattered Rose. Then I die-cut the panel using Scallop Frames Dies and die-cut some one white for dimension on the scallop frame. I Also heat embossed the sentiment “season’s greetings” from Christmas Friends stamp set using Liquid Platinum embossing powder.

I also die-cut some medium and small stars from Stitched Stars Dies after distressing some scrap papers and adhered on the panel with foam tape. Every image is from the Christmas Friends stamp set except for the cute penguin, he is from the Winter Wonderland stamp set. The images where colored with Copic Markers.

Here’s a closer look at the finished card.

Christmas Theme & Giveaway Week- Day 3

Hi friends! Lisa here today with a frosty card made with Winter Wonderland Stamps and Dies. This card came together quickly and would be easy to mass produce!

I began by die cutting My Mind’s Eye Sugar Plum paper with the wavy die from the Scallop Borders set. Next it was adhered to my card base with the coordinating stripe paper.

Now comes the fun! I stamped and die cut the Eskimo girl, igloo and a trio of snowflakes. She’s colored with Copics and a slight bit of gray shading was done on the igloo. An extra igloo door was stamped and fussy cut then added to the igloo with foam tape.

To bring in more sparkle, I used Frosted Lace Stickles on the hood. The Iridescent Mini Circle Confetti worked perfectly for snowy accents!

We’re continuing on with our week of giveaways and today we are giving away a $50 Ellen Hutson gift certificate. It’s super easy all you have to do is leave a comment sharing which craft item(s) are on your wish list!

Christmas Theme & Giveaway Week- Day 1

Hello, Pretty Pink Posh fans! This is Yana and I have an interactive Christmas card to share featuring the Winter Wonderland stamp set and wobble springs. Plus, this post kicks off our Christmas Theme and Giveaway Week!

Wobble springs are something new and very exciting you can now find in Pretty Pink Posh store. And just in time for the Holidays, too! I was very excited to get my hands on these and I can’t wait to share a card I made using them.

In case you don’t know what wobble spring is, it’s a little plastic spring that attaches with one end to the card base (or anything else; thank tags, gift bags etc) and with another end to an object and provides that object with movement when touched. It is super fun to play with, even for adults – it’s mesmerizing in a way and addictive I’d say.

The element that wobbles on my card today is the igloo and a little penguin. The spring is hidden behind both of these and adds movement to both objects. To embellish the card, I added 4mm Clear Droplets and 6mm Clear Droplets, which are one of my favorite finishing touches.

Watch my video tutorial below to learn how to make this card and how to use wobble springs to create addictive interactive cards.
