Fa-la-la-llamas - It's the most wonderful time of the year

Hi everyone, I am Larissa from Car-d-elicious and today I am posting a new project on the blog from Gerda Steiner designs. This time I have made a card for my Memory dex. It is a card in christmas style, because christmas is approaching fast. ;) 

On my card I have used 2 images from the digital stampset Fa-la-la-llamas from Gerda Steiner designs. I have coloured the images with my Polychromos pencils, the black glaze pen and a white gelpen. I have fussy cut the images.

With the Stencil SL120 from Studio light I have die-cut my memory dex card from black cardstock. The bottom part from the red and white patterned paper from the Candy land paper pack (retired) from My favorite things is cut with the same dies. I have tied white embroidery thread around it and then I glued it with foamtape on the black card. I have stamped a sentiment and the snowflakes from the stampset Seasons tweetings (retired) from Winnie & Walter with Versamark ink on the card and then I embossed the image with white embossingpowder. Then I glued the images on the card. I doodled a line around the edge of the card with a black fineliner.

Happy Fall by Noga Shefer

 

Hi crafty friends,  Noga  here and I am so happy to share with you another project for Gerda Steiner Designs today.

Today this is a slimline card for fall.

My card featuring 3 sets:  Happy Fall 4x6 Clear Stamp Set, Happy Fall 4x6 Die Set, Cheerful Hedgehog 4x6 Clear Stamp Set,  Cheerful Hedgehog 4x6 Die, Sending Hugs 4x6 Clear Stamp Set  and Sending Hugs 4x6 Die Set.

To make this card I took a piece of Bristol smooth cardstock and cut a slimline card- 8.5X3.5 inches.

The background was created by blending dried marigold and old paper distress oxide inks,I spired some water onto it and soaked it up with paper towel.

I also splattered some gold paint on the background.

Next I colored the sweet images using copic markers. I glued it to my panel with foam tape for dimension.

Next I stamped a greeting from the stamp set using black ink.

To finish off, I added some orange sequins and netural twine for decoration.

I hope you enjoy the card I created and feel inspired to create!

Thanks for stopping by,

Noga

Focal sentiments....!!

Hi friends...

Ashlee here with some more inspiration for you and today I have done something a little different and just used the sentiments from a stamp set as the main focal piece of my card....

I love the sentiment portion of stamp sets and sometimes they really need to be front and centre so for this one I used the lovely sentiment "Thankyou for being in my life" from the "Bunny friends" stamp set!! 

For the sentiments I heat embossed them with WOW! Embossing powder...

The main piece of sentiment was done using High heels and the sub sentiment Opaque bright white, both on black cardstock!

To do the card base I started with a piece of light pink Cardstock and added an inked confetti star using a stencil from WOW! creating a perfect place for my sentiment to be placed...

I then finished it off with a touch of Pinkfresh jewels for a bit of bling!!

I hope you like this card and it inspires you to get your sentiment stamps out and give them centre stage, happy crafting...

Hugs Ashlee
