The background is a medium sparkle velum embossed with a Snowflake folder from Cricut. This Holtz Big Snowflake Die and folder created the Snowflake. I covered the flat side of the folder with Blueprint distress ink before embossing. The sentiment is from Simon Says.

Inspired by Anna Karin’s post, I embossed the bulbs in gold from the Classic 10 set on kraft cardstock. I used Mica paints to fill in the color. the background is the Sparkle stamp from Tim Holtz with Versamark and Psychedelic embossing powder. Joy is triple gold embossed and die cut.

I was inspired by a YouTube channel by Pootles who had details for making this fun card box. I started with kraft cardstock, made the appropriate scores, then stamped the box with a Judikins background stamp. Santa is from a Tim Holtz Set as well as the small tag. Red striped ribbon completes the package!

Blue smooshed background with Tim Holtz background stamp and embossed Eiffel Tower.

Cheering you on. Unfortunately, no blog post for this as I'm getting ready to head to Texas for a few days. #mftstamps Sketch Challenge MFTWSC228 #simonsaysstamp #sssmchallenge Simon Brand Product (Audrey Blue Cardstock & Hand Lettered Encouragement Stamp Set) #ssswchallenge Color Swatch. #handmadecards #stamping #diecutting #cardstock #dienamics #cardchallenge #littlebugstudio

I embossed the bulbs on watercolor paper and used watercolors and glimmer paints to highlight them. Watercolor washed the background and drew the strings and bows in silver pens.

My card for the Simon Says Flicker #79 challenge and the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge. Details on my blog: www.patitudes.blogspot.com/2017/09/really-big-thanks.html

The Hero Arts background was embossed in clear and ombré watercolored in orange. The leaves were cut from distress ink smooshed tags and tied with the cord. The sentiment was stamped with watercolor using a Jillibean stamp.

Road trip stamp set provided the map, the Palme and sentiment came from Tim Holtz The Journey set. The green background is distressed sprays.

I used a Hero Arts city scape die, stamped and embossed. I blended Distress oxides Scattered Straw, Marigold. Picked Raspberry and Lilac for the background. A few blobs of water added depth. The sentiment from Neat and Tangled was cut three times and glued.

I used the You background, stamp and die set fork the background. The bike and accessories is from Beautiful Ride. The background is smooshed with Distress inks over white embossing.

Fresh Brewed Blueprint set was used on Canson watercolor paper. I attached it to a background in my stash and added the small sentiment from another stamp set.

A Penny Black Floral Die was cut and stacked. Watercolors were applied to the flowers and a blue wash was added to the background. The grateful heart is from a Simon Says Set.

Another winter card, I used a leftover piece from my previous post which I colored with Prismacolor pencils. Border stamp and matching die by @mypaperwishes (Hot off the Press), sentiment from @simonsaysstamp. Will enter in Simon's Monday challenge.

I took Simply Watercoloring on Online Car Classes following Kristina’s technique. I used Sizzix Holiday Joy die for the reindeer, and the snow stamps fo rather sky. The tree is from Tim Holtz Woodland Trees. The snow is Gansai Tambi Starry Watercolors.

Two Hero Arts Stamps are layered using different Distress inks. The frames are cut with a Memory Box frame set, layered. The butterfly is created with distress inks on watercolor paper (2layers). I splattered gold paint for sparkle. I made the antennae with a small piece of wire.

The background was created with multiple colors of Tombow markers stamped onto the paper. Altenew’s Thanks Die was used to create a void for the kraft base to show through.

Concord and 9ths new Leaf Turnabout Stamp provided the leafs. I embossed one set in Metallic Bronze from Judikins. The other leafs are stamped with Cathryn Poolers Aquatini and Hero Arts Ink. Grateful was stamped with Versamark and embossed with Aged Copper powder on heavy vellum. The card was mounted on teal and a cardstock base.

I've really enjoyed making smaller cards lately. This one measures 3.25"x4.5". Thank You #sssmchallenge #simonsaysstamp #sssink #averyelle #papertreyink #handmadecards #stamping #diecutting #mftstamps #dienamics #cardchallenge #littlebugstudio

Concord and 9ths turnabout Stamp was stamped in 4 colors all from Hero Arts except for the embossed layer with Metallic Bronze from Judikins. The sentiment is stamped with the same powder on a matching cardstock cut withGina Marie’s Wonky Circle Dies.

I hang onto interesting clothing tags with no purpose or clue how to use them. I recycled both the tag and watch parts to create this masculine card. Tim Holtz gear stencil provided the backdrop with distress oxides, shifted to use 2 colors. Authentic was cut. Using Tim Holtz Sizzix letters on a scrap piece of cardstock.

The distress ink blended background highlights the cityscape (Altenew Stamp embossed on vellum. Splatters add interest in the sky.

I always make cards to welcome spring, summer and fall, but poor winter gets lost in the Christmas rush. So I'm glad that @simonsaysstamp added winter to their current Monday challenge. For this card, I used snowflake dies from @iostamps, older snowflake stamps from @inkadinkado for the background, and patterned paper and sequins from an older #sssck. I made up my own sentiment from @heroarts Brushstroke alphabet.

Had a lot of fun coloring these cute images from @pinkandmain using Copics. I don't have the matching dies, so that was a lot of fuzzycutting! The background is from @justforfunstamps and the sentiment is a relic (one of my very first stamps, back when Jo-Ann stores sold their own brand. I think). I'm entering this card in @simonsaysstamp Monday challenge (better late than never😂).

I used Watercolors to create the background and added white splatters. Simon Says Felicity Snowflake was cut twice and embossed with Judikins White Diamonds embossing powder. Sentiment is also from Simon Says.

I used Tim Holtz Fresh Brewed Blueprint stamp along with one from Sugar Pea. They background is one the the new3d embossing folders from Tim Holtz.

Tim Holtz’s Natures Wonder Stamp Set was stamped and spritzed with Distress oxides. Once dry, the panel was cut and applied to the base. Thankful is cut from watercolor paper colored with Aged Mahogany Distress inks.

This one is for the sssmchallenge.

Distress oxides smooshed background is the base. I then colored embossing paste with Rusty Hinge oxide ink and added random sections. Wonky Rectangle Die provides the interest. The Holtz Stamp Theories is embossed in black. The sentiment is embossed in copper on craft cardstock.

I used Tim Holtz’s large snowflake die embossing folder. I inked the embossing folder with Blueprint sketch distress ink and mounted it on blue cardstock backed by a printed snowfall background. The sentiment is from Simon Says embossed in white. I cut the card holder with light blue paper stamped with Blueprint sketch on an IO background stamp.

The backgrond floral stencil was ink blended with Scattered Straw distressed ink. I stamped the sentiment background on the stencil and applied to the card. The Hero Arts flower was stamped and colored with alcohol markers. The sentiment is from a Hero Arts Stamp Set.

This was made with all sorts of scraps headed for the garbage. I recycle and repurposed them to make this card for my brother.

You make me smile! #thedailymarker30day2 #sssmchallenge #mftstamps #dienamics #reverseconfetti #handmadecards #stamping #distressink #watercolor #timholtz #rangerink #littlebugstudio
