Here are two more Holiday cards I completed yesterday. I really like this first one, even more so in person, so I made 10 more to sell this weekend. Unfortunately I messed up and cut the base out of whisper white (not in this one, but in the other 10) and the images are all stamped on very vanilla so... I'll be making 10 more for 20 total! With the Big Shot the background piece is quite easy. I just wheeled an entire piece of Baha Breeze cardstock with the Snow jumbo wheel in Vanilla ink then cut 3 at a time out with the Top Note Die! I think on the others I make the banner won't hang over the edge because it won't fit in a standard envelope if I do that. Ooh, forgot to mention that the scallop oval was made just by piecing two scallop circles together.
This second card will not be duplicated, at least not with the brads since I won't have enough to make very many. I do like the simplicity of it though. The wreath was made by stamping a snowflake from Snow Burst multiple times. The chocolate chip card base was wheeled with the Poinsetta jumbo wheel and versamark, but I'm not sure if it shows much. Had a heck of a time with lighting today due to rain.Thanks for stopping in today!
these are great! I love love love the penguin one, it's so crisp and cool!
ReplyDeleteI love the snow background and that adorable little penguin! Great details with the sponging around the sentiment\!
ReplyDeletethey're both great - wish I could be there to buy them!
ReplyDeleteI do read your blog on a regular basis- you have been very busy- question- do you know if the top note die will work in a regular old red sizzix- since I already have that machine? You have done some really neat stuff with it!
ReplyDeleteLauriewe, For some reason when I click on your blog link my page goes blank. So, I hope you get back to see this reply to your question... I can say for sure that the Top Note Die will NOT fit in the old red Sizzix machine. I actually bought it first thinking that it would, but it does not so I ended up getting the Big Shot... and I've got to say I love it so far! Thanks for asking and thanks for following my blog- how exciting!
ReplyDeleteI love both cards!
ReplyDeletewow! two more fantastic cards. I love the second so much, but you know me and choc. chip.
ReplyDeleteLove both of these! Awesome idea for the scallop 'oval'!
