Holiday lineup and another Santa box

This is what I made at the workshop I had. Using the same stampset 'Holiday Lineup but using a different stamp in the set. I used the
122362 Lace Ribbon Border punch to make the lace round the 2 edges. The Santa box we embossed with the square lattice (119976) folder and I used the new christmas stocking punch to make the boots for Santa. I love the way this little treat box goes together so quickly. Remember anyone wanting these StampinUp products can email me with an order. Remember you can brouse the catalogue on my blog as well. Happy crafting.

Holiday Lineup

This is the card I am going to teach my ladies tomorrow. I used the 'Holiday lineup' set and stamped it on whisper white cardstock. Then I cut a mask to go over it. I then sponged the background with 2 shades of blue and green with the mask in place and left the mask in place while I stamped the stamp from Lovely as a tree over the mask to put it in the background but on top of the sponging. I used Pacific point card stock for the card and then mounted the stamped image onto confetti cream. I then used the Dotted scallopped ribon border to do the ribbon at the bottom with more pacific point. I coloured the image with StampinUp markers and have left room at the top for a sentiment.

Santa treat box triangle

Oh such fun with Christmas a comin. I saw this little treatbox well actually its not so little it measures 5.5x4.5 and is triangle shaped but it holds quite a lot. It would be a great gift box for those smallish items for christmas or change the santa and do it for anytime. Santa is punch art with StampinUp punches. The scalloped circle the 1.25 circle the stocking punch for the mustach the owl punch for the eyes, nose, cheeks, mouth and pompom and the word window punch. Santa's belt is the Dotted scalloped ribbon border punch.

Lovely as a Tree step card

This stamp set is from StampinUp and is called 'Lovely as a Tree'. I coloured the stamps with markers and the top and bottom pieces I stamped together then put at the top and bottom. I made the flower very simply with the 5 petal punch and boho blossoms and a brad for the centre. The sentiment reads 'Sometimes you can't see the wood for the trees" a place I have been at times lately, but this card makes it seem a pretty place to be.

Stamping on Candles in a Glittered box

Today I had a StampinUp craft workshop where we made a box and stamped on candles. The box was made and the hole cut in the top and perspect was placed in the top so you could see through it. The sides of the box were embossed with SU 'Heat and Stick' and we added glitter. The candles were stamped and added to the box. This has made an awesome gift box for anyone and the ladies had a great time.

Brayered Sunset

This is a brayer card I did tonight on CA. Brayering does make lovely sky or sea. I used the Stampin up stamp pads of Daffodil Delight, Peach Parfait and Tangerine Tango to do the brayered sunset. The snowman is a cricut cut from the Gingerbread cartridge. The trees and butterflys are small punches.

Star Box and Star Card

I had a group of people come and we made star boxes. To go with the box I designed a card in the shape of a star as well. I love the way these turn out and they are such a great gift.

Sparklee signature

I have been playing round on Sparklee.com to make this bling signature for my posts. Love Sparklee and they let you do this for free if you have the sparklee.com added to it. So I have sparklee.com added. Real glad I let it added as I have gone back a few times to make different signatures and sparklie text. Check them out for yourselves.

Clam Shell Box for a man

I wanted to do a mans clamshell box to see what I came up with. I used the clam shell box design and have used Always Artichoke and More Mustard papers with the totally tools stamp set from StampinUp. I spritzed it with silver spritz to make it look old. Added faux stitching to the corners and handles and brads in Always artichoke. The stamps are stamped on very vanilla cardstock and hand cut and coloured with blender pens and ink pads adding basic grey and not quite navy to the colours above.
