Hearts Come Home

This is card that is very similar to the one I sent to some of my customers, but forgot to scan the one I sent.  I used Hearts Come Home stamp set from the 2017 Holiday catalog, but only difference in the one I sent them,  I used the sentiment "Joy to the World" that comes with the set at the bottom instead of "Merry Christmas" from the Teeny Tiny Wishes set.  Also, I used the swirl stamp from the Star of Light stamp set in Night of Navy and used the Wink of Stella Brush to give it some glimmer.  In the one above I used gold star sequins from one of my Paper Pumpkin kits.  The Big Shot was used with the Layering Circle Framelit Dies to make the Crushed Curry moon,  Santa and his sleigh were stamped with Memento Black ink.  The homes were die cut using the Hometown Greetings Edgelits that can be purchased as bundle.

Winter Wonder Snowman


 


It takes lots of snowflakes to build a snowman, but this snowman face was made with the Winter Wonder Textured Embossing Folder from the 2017 Holiday Catalog on page 37 which will soon retire.  The card was inspired by Melanie Coverstone on Pinterest.  The sentiments on the front and on the inside of the card are from Hearts Come Home.  I love that inside sentiment and you could always add a red heart on the inside too.  The colors I chose are Pacific Point.  The Black Rhinestones were used to make his eyes and mouth.  The carrot nose it cut from Pumpkin Pie cardstock.  After it was all done, I added the Wink of Stella Glitter Brush on the snowflake to give it some glimmer.

Smitten Mittens in Tranquil Tide

This is another card made with the Smitten Mittens set.  I fell in love with this set and the Many Mittens Framelits Dies that go with it.  I'm sad to find outthat both are retiring the end of this year.  The cardstock I used is Tranquil Tide and Whisper White, but I also used Be Merry DSP with the Lots of Labels Framelits.  The sentiment if from the Labels to Love stamp set with Tranquil Tide ink and punched out with the Everyday Label Punch.  The ribbon is 3/8" Metallic Silver Ribbon.

Smitten Mittens Treat Holders

This idea was cased from B.J. Peters.  These little mitten treat holders were so adorable that I had to make some of my own.  I used the Smitten Mittens from 2017 Holiday Catalog on page 38 and the Many Framelit Dies that are sold as a bundle.  Each one holds two Hershey's Fun Size Milk Chocolate Bars.  I used Pool Party, Cherry Cobbler and Be Merry DSP.  I also used Tinsel Ribbon and 1/4" Double Stitched Cherry Cobbler Ribbon, and White Embossing Powder to create them.  They will make a fun treat holder for a co-worker or friend.
