Glamper Greetings Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas to everyone!!  I hope your Holiday is filled with lots of love, happiness, fun and good health!

I made this Christmas card especially for my cousin who likes to go camping.  Usually they tent camp or rent a cabin when they go.  At one time her Mom and Dad owned a camper and were members of the Good Sam's club (I think that is what it is called).  Years ago we owned a camper similar too this one and would go camping at a near by lake with my parents and our daughters, lots of fun!!

I should have done this scene a little bit different but for my first try it came out pretty good.  When I did the grass, I put "frost" on it with my glue pen and sprinkle on some Dazzling Diamonds for some sparkle.

Here is the recipe:

Stamp set: Glamper Greetings

Card stock: Pool Party, Blushing Bride and Whisper White

Various Stampin' Write markers

Blender pen

Sponges

Black Memento ink

Have a GREAT day!!  Mary

Father Christmas

Well when I was thinking about this card, it turned out so much prettier in my mind, sigh.  After I got done embossing it with the gold embossing powder, I realized it was really too detailed for this type of technique, but I went ahead and used the card anyway.  Next time I will try the new Watercolor Pencils on this stamp image, as the stamp set is being carried forward!

Here is the recipe:

Stamp set: Father Christmas

Card stock: Cherry Cobbler

Gold Foil Sheet

Gold Embossing Powder

Pretty simple, if you could see it better, sigh.  If you click on the picture, it will enlarge the photo for you.

Happy Christmas Eve!!  Mary

Christmas Thank You Cards

My daughter requested some Christmas thank you cards for the day care staff where her little boy attends.  So I made some of these cards for her.  Since she only needed three, I made them a little bit more fancy for the teachers.

I hope she liked them and the teachers too.  Here is what I used:

Card stock: Thick Whisper White, Cherry Cobbler, Always Artichoke, Crumb Cake and Soft Suede

Stamp: Watercolor Thank You-retired

Pretty Pines Thinlits

Ink: Versa Mark

Gold Embossing Powder

Gold Glimmer Paper

Paper Doily-retired

Garden Green Baker's Twine

I like how it turned out and with the use of the thinlits, not to hard to make either.

Hope you have a great day.  Mary

Jolly Friends

Hello again to my blogging friends!  I'm going to share with you the last of my Christmas cards for the reminder of the week.  Yes, I know it is too late to make them, but there is always next year too!

Now this card is from a PDF that quite a few demonstrators have been sharing the last couple of weeks, so as far as who made it originally is anyones guess.  I believe some of the demonstrators belong to a co-op where they share card tutorials from, lucky us!

Isn't this moose just the cutest!  He also is very cute with the Jolly Hat on his head too.

Here is what was used:

Card stock: Basic Black, Crumb Cake, Sahara Sand and Real Red

Ink: Soft Suede

Crumb Cake marker

Stamp set: Jolly Friends and Snow Place-sentiment

Star Framelits

Gold Metallic Thread

Dimensonials

Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to stop by, I appreciate it!  Mary

Ugly Sweater

Well my intent for this card was for it to be a ugly sweater card, but when I was finished making it, it was too cute to be ugly!  This is not my original design, I got a PDF for it somewhere, but don't remember where now.  I used the new Cable Knit Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, wow that is a mouth full to say!!  When you use the new Dynamic Textured folders you only use a top clear plate with it, otherwise it is too thick to go through your Big Shot.  It creates really deep texture and adds a lot of dimension to the card stock.

For this card I used the following:

Card stock: Cherry Cobbler, Crumb Cake and Emerald Envy
Ink: Soft Suede
Soft Suede marker

Dazzling Diamond and Red Glimmer paper

Punches: Cookie Cutter Builder and Jolly Hat Builder

Warmth & Cheer DSP

Circle Framelit-for the neckline of the shirt

Crimper-retired

I hope you like my "ugly sweater" and if you have this embossing folder, please share your creation with me, would like to see it!!  Thanks,   Mary

Merry Medley

For my card I used the following:

Card Stock: Thick Whisper White, Cherry Cobbler, Basic Black, Old Olive, Marina Mist and Daffodil Delight

Thinlits: Pyramid Pals (for the light bulbs) and Pretty Pines

Cherry Cobbler Baker's Twine
