I created a couple of cards today that I hope you enjoy.  

For my first card I created an arctic scene.  

I cut out a shape for the ice and used an ink blending tool and Distress Ink to create deep water and then covered that with cardstock to create a pale blue sky which I flicked with water to further differentiate it from the water.  I stamped the narwhal (love this sweet guy!) and skating penguin from Winter Wishes with Evelin T Designs in black ink before coloring them in with colored pencils.  I also stamped the igloo and cute penguin in a large hat from Season's Tweetings with Evelin T Designs (they work so well with this set!) in black ink.  I cut out the images with the coordinating cutaways.

I then placed my narwhal in the water so it appeared to be jumping out to say "hi".  With foam dimensional adhesive I attached the little penguin on top of the igloo because of course he would sit atop it and the skating penguin outside the igloo on ice.  I added some skate marks in the ice with a colored pencil and stamped the sentiment from Winter Wishes with Evelin T Designs in black ink.  I added the scene to a panel of navy cardstock before adding it to a white cardstock card base.

I went a little messy with my next card because sometimes I just have fun playing with sprays, inks and embossing pastes.

First I ran a piece of white cardstock through my Cuttlebug with the Cover Model: Do You See What I See? Cutaway...I need to replace my cutting plates so it embossed rather than cut the image which I went with.  I used Distress Ink, water and sheer shimmer spray to add an ombre pink look.  I then added texture and softened some of the color with white embossing paste in some spots.

I stamped the sweet bear in present image in black ink from Sweet Holiday with Evelin T Designs and colored it in with colored pencils and then cut it out with the coordinating cutaway.

I cut out several hexagons out of white cardstock from Essentials: Josephine Cutaways.  I attached the bear to the larger solid hexagon and then attached the solid hexagon with foam dimensional adhesive and the outline hexagon slightly askew.  I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set in black ink onto the smaller hexagon and then adhered it with foam dimensional adhesive.

Lastly, I added some bling and puffy stickers in green.

Aren't these stamp sets and cutaways sweet?

We have two beautiful additions to the In Bloom series both of which come from our very own Lydia Evans!  I am so excited to have Lydia designing with us and her sets: In Bloom: Debra's Poinsettia with Lydia Evans and In Bloom: Victoria's Very Merry Flowers with Lydia Evans both have lots of layering options as well as beautiful sentiments. We are introducing coordinating cutaways for both stamp sets as well.

To our Cover Model series we are introducing Cover Model: Do You See What I See? Cutaway which is almost a kaleidoscope of a pattern with different shapes seen depending on how you look at it!

It's all about florals today and I have a couple of cards for you.

I started by creating backgrounds on panels of white cardstock with Scenery: Buffalo Check Creative Screenings and then I used both Scenery: Ticking Stripe Creative Screenings and Scenery: Grand Trellis Creative Screenings and white embossing paste.  I let them dry and then flicked gold shimmer paint on them.  I set aside to dry for a while.

I stamped the large solid poinsettia in red 5 times and the detail and center in a darker red from In Bloom: Debra's Poinsettia with Lydia Evans and cut it out using the coordinating die.  I also stamped the large leaf 7 times in green and detail in darker green and cut it out using the coordinating die.  I also stamped out the greenery twice from In Bloom: Victoria's Very Merry Flowers with Lydia Evans and cut it out using coordinating die. 

I cut out the "merry" twice from In a Word: Merry Coordinating Cutaways from white cardstock and likewise cut out the scalloped frame from In a Word: Holiday Tiles Cutaways and stamped "christmas" in red from In Bloom: Victoria's Very Merry Flowers with Lydia Evans.   I also cut out the flag tag die from Tagged: Holiday Cheer Cutaways and stamped the same "christmas".  I adhered the cards together with foam dimensional adhesive.  I added some gold glitter enamel dots as a final embellishment.

That's it for me today.  Now on to some extraordinary inspiration by Alice and The Talent!  Please be sure to click the links to their blogs and leave them some love.

Thank you so much for all of your kind comments and we are so happy you are enjoying what our November Leading Lady, Alice Wertz, and the Talent have shown you so far.  I am back with another couple of cards today and some little tags too.

I made a couple of cards using Tagged: Holiday Cheer and Sentimental: Gift keeping with one color palette per card.

 

I came up with a design and what I love about this is that you can create many cards each with a different family of color or choose a color combo for all or each one.  After I was happy with the pattern, I cut it out the stamped panels using the larger rectangle from Essentials: Lana Cutaways and attached each to a matching A2 card base.  I also cut the rectangle tag out of the same colored cardstock as the card base and flag tag from white cardstock using Tagged: Holiday Cheer Cutaways.  I then cut out the star as my tag hole for each tag using the same cutaways.  I put the tag together using dimensional foam adhesive, tied embroidery floss through the tags and attached them to the appropriate card using foam dimensional adhesive.  I left my cards fairly simple and without much embellishment, but they could certainly have sequins, gems, enamel dots and the like added.

I also made some tags using the Tagged: Holiday Cheer Cutaways using the same colored cardstock as the cards.  To create the background I used the Scenery: Grand Trellis Creative Screenings, ink blender and Distress Inks which matched the cardstock.  I kept the stencil in place and used a black pen to trace around the lines.  Next I stamped the sentiment and heart image from Warm Wishes to You in black ink.  Simple and rather cute, don't you think?  You can then add these to gifts and they match the card without being too matchy-matchy. 

My cards and tags are a very simple introduction to what can be done...wait until you see the marvels guest and The Talent have in store for you!  Please be sure to click the links to their blogs and leave them some love.
