Merry Little Star Christmas Card

Looking for ways to use up precious little scraps of Designer Series Paper, I CASEd (Copy And Selectively Edit) my own card that I made for one of our Crazy Crafter Blog Hops, which in turn CASED a scrapbook layout by Susan Wong.

A great way to use up those little scraps of Designer Series Paper in an interesting Christmas card

The silver heat embossed star was left over from a previous project and already sitting on my table - so this card came together really quickly!!

I added a Glitter Enamel Dot to the centre of the star and a banner, which I stamped with Archival Basic Black ink and watercoloured with a little Old Olive ink.

Thank you for visiting.

Special Reason Dragonfly

It's Friday which means .... Crazy Crafters' Projects Highlights day! To see all the amazing entries and vote for your favourites, click here.

I made a few inky backgrounds the other day (I like to do messy things like that in batches!) and used one of them for this card.

Copper makes everything "special" as well as warm and inviting!

Having cut my piece of Shimmery White cardstock to the size I wanted, the first thing I did was to Copper heat emboss the dragonfly image.

Then, to make the background I used Peekaboo Peach and Watermelon Wonder ink pads, a water spritzer, plastic bag and waterproof craft mat.

I basically used the plastic bag smooshing method of applying ink to wet cardstock (wet the cardstock, pat the ink pad down on the plastic bag to transfer ink, smoosh inky bag onto wet cardstock) but, not quite happy with my result, I also patted some ink down onto the craft mat, spritzed it with some water and tapped the cardstock into it.

The touches of copper provide interest to the otherwise simple card

Once it was all dry, I layered up the cardstock and added the remaining elements. I cut flowers with the Stylish Stems small flower framelits - one in Watermelon Wonder and two in Cherry Cobbler. Having adhered them into place, I cut just the petals in Peekaboo Peach cardstock and glued them into position in the Watermelon Wonder flower.

I then partially cut three more flowers with Copper Sheet. The centres were adhered into the three flowers and I sprinkled some of the petals around the dragonfly. I'm so proud of myself for achieving "random"!!

I copper heat embossed the banner and sentiment before cutting out the banner with the matching die from the Bunch of Banners framelits.

To finish the inside of the card, I stamped flowers from the Special Reason set in one corner using Peekaboo Peach, Watermelon Wonder and Wild Wasabi inks.

Thank you for visiting - don't forget to visit the highlights!
'Til next time!

Merry Mouse - Traditional - Holiday Catalogue Sneak Peek

Here's my furry little friend again ... but this time I painted him in more traditional Christmas colours.

Stampin Up, #thecraftythinker, Holiday Catalogue Sneak Peek, Merry Mice, Christmas Card, Xmas card, Stampin Up Australia Demonstrator,

The Christmas greeting is from the Hostess set "Time of Year"

The gingerbread house and gingerbread man are both cut out from the Candy Can Lane DSP - I simply added som Dazzling Diamonds Glitter.

The gingerbread man is sitting on a disc of Early Espresso cardstock. To give it a glazed look, I used the fine-tip glue pen to add a layer of glue which dried quite quickly to leave a shiny appearance.

These are the Sneak Peek Products from the new Holiday Catalogue:
Merry Mice (142145)
Candy Cane Lane Designer Series Paper (141981)
Real Red 3/4" Stitched Edge Ribbon (141984)
3/8" Silky Taffeta Ribbon Combo Pack (141989)

Crazy Crafters Blog Hop with Jennifer Michalski - Bold Butterflies

Welcome to the Crazy Crafters Blog Hop with our Special Guest stamper, the very talented Jennifer Michalski - we are thrilled to have her join us this month and so excited to CASE (Copy And Selectively Edit) any project that has been created by her. We hope you find great inspiration from the projects.

http://stampingserenity.blogspot.com.au/2016/07/sweet-sassy-for-ppa310.html

Whether you are starting the blog hop here at my blog, Stephanie Fischer - The Crafty Thinker, or have come from the person before me, be sure to click on the person listed under me further down the page to continue your journey on this blog hop.

This is Jennifer's card that I have chosen to CASE. I like the colour combination of Dapper Denim and Peekaboo Peach and also the simplicity of the design. To see more details about Jennifer's card, click on the image to link to her blog.

For my card, I kept the colour combination and the basic layout design.

This is my CASE of Jennifer's card.

Stampin Up, #thecraftythinker, #crazycraftersbloghop, Bold Butterflies, Stampin Up Australia Demonstrator

Dapper Denim and Peekaboo Peach make good companions for each other!

I exchanged butterflies for hearts, changed to the Seaside embossing folder and used Ruched Ribbon rather than a die cut.

The top butterfly is adhered flat to the card front, the middle butterfly is popped up on a layer of dimensionals and the lower butterfly has a double layer of dimensionals.

The greeting is from Teeny Tiny Sentiments stamped in Peekaboo Peach on Whisper White cardstock that has been cut with one of the dies from Bunch of Banners.

I hope you've enjoyed this card and I welcome your comments.
