The Sounding Joy Christmas Card

I just love these colors... Crumb Cake/Soft Suede/Black for a homespun Christmas card look. The 'metal' embossed look is achieved by inking the relief (or raised impression) side of the embossing folder with a Whisper White Crafters Ink pad before running it through the Sizzix die cutting machine.

Halloween Mummy Box (or Lollipop Cover)

This adorable 'pillow box' makes not only a nice Halloween treat box, but you can punch a hole in the bottom and make it a a lollipop cover! The 'box' is the Sizzix 'pillowbox' die and it is entirely Sahara Sand paper and torn Sahara Sand with sponged White Crafters ink.  Of course the 'gravestone' is the large tag punch... and I inked the greeting from the new 'Delightful Dozen' stamp set ...

Always Thankful Thanksgiving Card

The detail in the stamp set, combined with the awesome patterns and colors in the new Spice Cake designer series paper from the Holiday Mini Catalog, makes for an autumn card that has you almost SMELLING the pumpkin! I colored the wheelbarrow and pumpkins in with Aquapainters and a tiny bit of reinker from the colors in the paper (Pumpkin Pie, Garden Green, Soft Suede and More ... View Post
