Hi Stampers!
I hope all of you are enjoying your weekend!
Before I could
concentrate on creating my swap card for an upcoming quarterly demo meeting held by my upline, I decided to create a
few cards using the colors from this week’s ColourQ CQC112 Challenge (the second card was created for JAI95 “Bah-Humbug” Christmas Challenge).
Again, if you have a
chance, stop by and visit the above challenge sites to check out the gorgeous
Design Team Samples along with all of the other entries- such wonderful
inspiration!
To create the first
card:
Cut a piece of
cardstock from Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie, Cherry Cobbler and
Early Espresso and adhere to a piece of Whisper White cardstock.
Stamp the scroll
image from Creative Elements with Versamark™ ink and heat emboss with Stampin’
Emboss® White Embossing Powder. Attach
the 5/8” Whisper White Satin Ribbon bow, layer into an embossed panel (using
the Finial Press EF) and add the sentiment.
Quick and easy!
Stamp Sets: Creative Elements, Blessings from Heaven
Ink: Versamark®, Cherry
Cobbler
Cardstock: Cherry
Cobbler, Daffodil Delight, Early Espresso, Pumpkin Pie, Whisper White
Accessories: Big Shot™, Finial Press Textured Impressions™
Embossing Folder, Embossing Buddy®,
Heat Tool, Stampin’ Emboss® White Embossing Powder, 5/8” White Satin Ribbon, Large
Oval Punch
The second card was created with the CQC112 colors and with the Just Add Ink JAI95 “Bah-Humbug” Christmas Challenge in mind- create a Christmas project but with NO Christmas Paper, No Christmas Images (Christmas Sentiment allowed).
To create this landscape
card:

Ink the tree images
with Early Espresso and stamp the line of trees for the background. Stamp the large tree with Versamark™ and heat
emboss using Stampin’ Emboss® Dark Brown Embossing Powder (retired).
Spray the panel with
Champagne Mist Shimmer Paint spray, round the corners and attach the 5/8” Early
Espresso Satin Ribbon bow (retired).
Adhere to an embossed
panel (use the Big Shot™ with the Snow Burst Textured Impressions™ Embossing
Folder), mount the sentiment and finish off the card.
