It’s a Festival of Trees!

Posted on December 4, 2015 by Stamp with Jini

Today’s cards all have something in common – trees! After all who doesn’t love all the shapes, and sizes they come in this time of year?

Melanie used the F estival of Trees stamp set (135059) and the 2015-2017 In Colors to create this card, Mint Macaron and Tip Top Taupe.

Did you know that the Mint Macaron Classic Ink Pad (138326) is part of the Weekly Deals? So not only can you get this lovely soft color but you can get it at a great deal! You’ll want to check out the coordinating 1″ Dotted Trim too (138424) that was used on this card it ties lovely.

These next three cards all have the Tree Punch (135859) in common along with either the Merry Moments Designer Series Paper (138450) or the 6×6 stack option (139595) found in the Holiday Catalog. Isn’t it great that Stampin’ Up! give us two choices depending on how we like to craft?

This first card that was given to me by Sandy uses the Hostess Set, Six Sayings (139849/139852) if you haven’t seen it you’ll want to take a look since it’s a lovely set that covers all our fall occasions – and the font is just lovely I think. Great news – you can still earn this set too. Contact me today to host a party with me or place an order so you can earn it now!

Love our Silver Glimmer Paper (135314)? Then this card I made will make you smile.

And this final card I made at the On Stage Shoebox swap uses our Christmas Greeting Thinlits Dies (139659) along with the Home for the Christmas Designer Buttons (139639).

Trees, trees, and more trees – what can I say I can’t pick a favorite. Can you? Why not leave me a comment and let me know which one is your favorite?

Festival of Trees

Posted on December 1, 2014 by Stamp with Jini

I have always liked cardinals – it goes back to my childhood growing up in Wisconsin when they were a rare sight during the winter. And so I enjoy seeing that spot of bright color all year long here in the North Georgia Mountains.

I made today’s card using the Festival of Trees Bundle (137640). After all who can resist a stamp set that has a coordinating punch, right? LOL. And of course this cute little cardinal made it a must on my wish list.

I’ve used the Nordic Noel Designer Series Paper for my color pallet and the Real Red 3/8″ Satin Woven Ribbon (135840) found in the Holiday Catalog on page 15. It has such a wonderful feel and ties beautifully. You’re so going to love it when you work with it!

And here is another card that I made using the same basic items – I’ve just added the Filigree Frame Embossing Folder (13518) to the mix.

How did I create the little tree? I’ve used the negative space created when I punched out the tree first. Simply take a piece of Real Red card stock (102482) and punch out the tree then I punched a circle around the tree by using the 2″ Circle Punch (133782). I layered this on top of my Nordic Noel Designer Series Paper and Garden Green 2 1/12″ Circle.

Cool trick right?

Supplies:

Stamp Set: Festival of Trees (135059)

Inks: Real Red (126949) and Garden Green Classic Ink (102584)

Paper: Nordic Noel Designer Series Paper (135822), Real Red (102482), Soft Sky (131203), and Whisper White card stock (100730)

Accessories: Real Red 3/8″ Satin Woven Ribbon (135840) and Tree Punch (135859)
