Cookie Cutter Christmas

I've been trying to make some tags for my daughter to use, as she likes to make her Christmas gifts, which I think is wonderful!  She was busy canning this past summer when the vegetables and fruit were in season and plentiful too.  I've had some of her goodies and they are delicious too!

I decided to pull out this stamp set and give it a go, I think they turned out rather nicely too.

Here is what I used:

Stamp set: Cookie Cutter Christmas

Punch: Cookie Cutter Builder and Scalloped Tag Topper punch

Inks: Crumb Cake, Early Espresso, Black Memento

Card Stock: Real Red, Whisper White and Crumb Cake

Red Glimmer paper

Baker's twine-retired

These were really fun to make!  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

Cookie Cutter Christmas Part Three

Today I will share the final card that I made with the Cookie Cutter Christmas set.

I used my blender pen to color the little Eskimo in with some Crumb Cake ink.  You can't see it in this picture, but I used the Wink of Stella to add some simmer to the fur part of the parka.  I also used Night of Navy ink and card stock, along with some Linen Thread and the Candy Cane Lane Designer Series paper.  Oh did you know that the whole month of October Stampin' Up! has a great deal on DSP, buy three packages and receive one free, great way to stock up!!  

Thank you for coming to see my creation this week, I appreciate you coming by!!  Mary

Cookie Cutter Christmas Part Two

Thank you for coming back by to see another two Christmas cards that I made using the Cookie Cutter Christmas stamp set, the Cookie Cutter Builder punch and the Candy Cane Lane Designer Paper!

Here are two more Christmas cards using the Crumb Cake Note cards.

I once again used the Candy Cane Lane Baker's Twine, Dazzling Diamond Glitter paper, Black Memento, Early Espresso, Crumb Cake and Real Red inks.  I used a Blender pen to color Santa in with.  Also used were Whister White and Real Red card stock and the Cable Knit embossing folder.

Friday I will share one more card, see you than.  Mary

Cookie Cutter Christmas

This coming week I'm going to share some cute Christmas cards that were made with the Cookie Cutter Christmas stamp set, the Cookie Cutter Builder punch and the Candy Cane Lane Designer Series paper.  I recently signed up for Ronda Wade's Online Creative Convention and I signed up for the Make & Takes that she provided the instructions for.  These cute little Christmas cards were made with Stampin' Up!'s Crumb Cake Note cards.  I had a lot of relaxing time making them too!  Today I will share two of the five that I made.

On the reindeer one, I added Wink of Stella to the antlers and some of the Candy Cane Lane Baker's Twine along with a rhinestone to the bow.  On the Teddy Bear one, I added a red bowtie and a rhinestone.  Inks used were Early Espresso, Crumb Cake and Real Red.  Card stock is Whisper White and Real Red.

Please come back Wednesday to see two more!  Mary

Cookie Cutter Christmas, Take Two

Hello and I hope your week was a great one, mine was very busy, can't wait to get back into the craft room to play and relax.

Here is my second Christmas card that I made using the Cookie Cutter Christmas stamp set and Cookie Cutter Builder punch, which is now available!

As you can see, I remember to use my embossing folder.  This little guy came out so cute!  This time I color in the antlers and for the legs I used the Gingerbread Man for the reindeer legs.  I made a small bow with some Linen Thread and attached it with a Glue Dot.  The embossing folder is Lucky Stars, which is in the Annual Catalog.  Card stock I used was Very Vanilla for the card base, Real Red and Crumb Cake.  The DSP is retired from last year.  The inks I used where, Real Red, Early Espresso and Black Memento.  I used a Chalk Marker for the white part above the hooves.  I also added a few Basic Rhinestones.

Another fun card to make!  Mary

Cookie Cutter Christmas

Well I'm off to a snail's pace in that I've started making my Christmas cards today!  Yes, I know, in August, Mary, PLEASE!!!  Well, last year I was making my cards in December and I don't like feeling rushed when I'm making them, that is because I don't make 30 of one card, I like to switch it up and use different stamps and punches.

The one I'm sharing today will be available starting September 1st, 2016 from the new Holiday Catalog.  This stamp set and punch are so darn cute and there are so many things you can use these cute images for, think cards, tags, treat decorations!

Here is my first try with this stamp set, Cookie Cutter Christmas and Cookie Cutter Builder Punch.

Now after I finished making this card, I realized that I had wanted to emboss the card front, but maybe I can do that the next time I make one!  The DSP behind the reindeer is retired because I'm trying to use up some of my older DSP before I buy any new.  

Card stock is Real Red, Very Vanilla and Crumb Cake

Ink is Real Red, Black Memento and Early Espresso

Sentiment is from the same stamp set

Well this is my share for today, come back Friday and see another Christmas card!!  Mary
