Hi again!
Today I want to share with you the cards from my first Christmas card class that was held in September. A lot of the ideas were inspired by cards found in our Stampin Connection area of our SU! demonstrator webiste or from fellow demonstrators.
This card features the stamp set called Greeting Card Kids, stamped with StazOn Jet Black ink on Glossy Paper, then a wash with blue ink to tint the background and then the focal image was colored in. A piece of Pear Pizzazz Poly Twill Ribbon and the Petals a Plenty Impressions Embossing Folder along with a punched greeting finish things off.
This is one that I created and it features the Merry & Type stamp set colored in with markers and stamped on white, then put that into the new Impressions Embossing Folder Frames, and then trimmed out, add a bold bright button with a bit of Bakers Twine and it's a great focal image. The designer series paper is the Letters To Santa, and the ribbon is the Early Espresso Quilted Ribbon and the 1/8" Marina Mist taffeta ribbon. Much prettier in real life!!
This card is probably one of my favorites from the class. I just love the simple and clean look of it! The white layer is embossed with the Northern Flurry Impressions Folder and the stamping images are from the Contempo Christmas stamp set with Always Artichoke & Cherry Cobbler. Finished off with the Cherry Cobbler Quilted ribbon. LOVE IT!!
This card uses one of my favorite stamp sets, SNOW MUCH FUN! Just love the little snowmen! The paper is from Letters to Santa, which is where I pulled my colors from. The background is the new Snowflake Impressions Embossing Folder from the Holiday Mini catalog sponged with crumb cake ink. Punches include the modern label punch, 1-3/4" circle punch, Circles #2 sizzix die, and 2-3/8" scallop circle punch. Card was CASEd from Robin Merriman, modified just slightly to a full size card layout.
I hope you have a great day!
Rhonda
