Three cards today, all made with stampin up cardstock, and stampin stamp set called Lovely as a Tree.These cards were experiments, to see how I could use normal stamp sets for christmas makes. The top card used some kaisercraft patterned paper from the Yuletide collection, and I stamped the tree, dotted it with glue and added some Flower soft to it, for a bit of texture.For the second card I inked through a negative piece of cardstock which I had die cut an oval, then with the negative piece of cardstock still in place I stamped the row of trees,removed the mask and then stamped the single tree.The third card was embossed along the bottom, ribbon wrapped around it,and tree stamped and dotted with some kindyglitz.I am off the the craft room now to make a start on my december lessons. I have some great paper for teen boys cards and some beach themed cards and lots of ideas running around my head, so let the creating begin! til tomorrow….

Lovely as a tree christmas 2012
Here is a card I made using non christmas stamps that I had in my craft room. The cardstock is stampin up handsome hunter( sadly retired – such a good christmas colour, lucky I stocked up!) and Very vanilla, and the inks used are handsome hunter and certainly celery. I used my versamark pen and perfect pearls Forever Green on the tree at the forefront of the card to give it some sparkle.The little sentiment is from Stampin Up Petite Pairs stamp set. Nathan and I did a youtube video which is here, to show how I achieved the whole tree in front look. Much easier than explaining it in words! Til tomorrow….
