Peace On Earth #33

 Hello, 

Today’s card is inspired from the mood board from Peace on Earth’s Challenge #33.  I loved the bright red cabin nestled around the colorful, trees.



I pulled out all of my tree dies and stamps to get started and my All Hearts Come Home set from Stampin Up.  I had to figure out which trees that would not overwhelm the focal point of the house.  

I decided to stamp the house in (SU) Cherry Cobbler ink on an Oatmeal colored sheet of cardstock.  I then cut a larger square in Cherry cobbler to frame the house and stand in front of the trees.  

I chose 3- different trees in shades of Night of Navy, Delightful Dijon, and Old Olive.  I added white detail to the trees to give a similar feel from the mood board by heat embossing textures from Honey Bee Stamps Valentine Textures.  

Assembly:  The background was dry embossed from Stampin Up’s Timeworn type embossing folder.  The trees were arranged to each side and the house was glued to the middle.  

A sentiment strip was cut from the remaining oatmeal cardstock, and placed under the house.  


Details:

Cardstock- Accent 120# white, Stampin Up- Delightful Dijon, Night of Navy, Evening Evergreen, Cherry Cobbler

Stamps- Stampin Up Hearts Come Home

Dies: Spellbinders - Bottlebrush trees, Concord and 9th- Tiny Trees Dies

Ink: Cherry Cobbler 

Acessories- Stampin Up - Timeworn Type Embossing folder,

Easter Fun Fold

Hello!  I saw a great technique today, that is a Z - fold card with a cross design. The card technique is from Lynn Dunn.  She has both a video and a very helpful download with all the measurements.  Thanks Lynn!  This is a great card for many occasions!  What I like about this design is that the cross is very prominent by the Z-Fold. You can find Lynn’s link:  (Here)   One of the most helpful tools for this project is a simple engineering ruler.  I watched a video from Jennifer McGuire a while back, and it’s a tool she uses often.   I ordered it, and it makes life so much easier.  This ruler is easy to read with all of the markings.  It has both metric and standard markings. (Amazon Link) I looked through my papers and made this card with Stampin Up’s Thoughtful Journey DSP.   The embossed cross pattern is from an Anna Griffin - Border embossing folder.  The pattern is called Blooming Damask.   The sentiment is from ...

Positively Peanuts!

 Hello!  The current challenge for the Double D Blog is Love and friendship.   To join in on the challenge: click the link  (HERE) I couldn’t think of a better friendship than Snoopy and Woodstock’s!  I was gifted the Creative Stamping Magazine, issue 156 from my Sister In Law!  I had kind of given up on these stamps, and she happened to see the magazine sitting on the shelf in the bookstore, and was nice to gift me the magazine.   To create this shaker card, I used a frame cutting die from the Past Unity Stamps Whit Kit (No Place Like Home).  I stacked  2 - panels for the top, and 4 - panels for the bottom, using Unity’s Basic Black cards stock. The bottom frame was glued to a slightly larger frame cutting die from Coastal Cabana card stock (SU). The hearts were added from a mini paper punch, with a few extra small beads.   Snoopy and Woodstock were stamped with Versa fine onyx black ink, colored and fussy cut.  I stamped the senti...

Blue Door Wreath

 Hello! Today was the first day I played with my Greetery, Shortbread Embossing Folder!   My parents usually visit close to the Holidays to celebrate a birthday and exchange gifts with one another.   My Mom graciously gave me a card with money, so I online shopped with the Greetery to pick up some things I had been eyeing.  (Thanks, Mom! ❤️) I started by cutting the Shortbread outline with the coordinating die first, then lining the the cut piece up and embossing as usual. For the card base, I cut a side folding A2 sized card.  I took the Shortbread Shapes die, letting the cutting edge hang off the crease.   I adhered the embossed panel on top, and trimmed the bottom edge. For the wreath: I started by cutting the outline with two nesting half circle dies, and taping one inside the other. Then I grabbed 3 -shades of scrap blue cardstock (Seaside Spray, Misty Moonlight, and Night of Navy) - SU and cut leaves from an older Concord and 9th Christmas Set. The fu...
