Holiday Class 2014 Pre class

I did this Thanks pop up card for after Christmas.  I used the Silhouette to cut the "thanks" portion.  I used a die to cut the white label and then cut around that for the green mat.  I stamped the top of the card and colored in with markers and colored pencils.

Day 4

I used Stampabilities "Count on Me" and "Tin Can Shower" for this card.  Don't remember whose numbers they are.  I had fun making this card.  When I saw the House Mouse stamp I knew I had to do this one!  Love those guys!

Stretching Your Stamps 2-Day 2

I again used the Hero Arts stamp "Decorative Loops" and embossed with white powder.  I used Stampin' Up inks-Lost Lagoon, Bermuda Bay, and Coastal Cabana.  I got a little carried away with the blending so not much goes into white.
I added a stamped flower with 3D tape and put another, smaller version, inside.

I found this old stamp I had which had both the positive and negative on the same stamp.  I clear embossed it, then sprayed it with the only spray I have --Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist.  When I wiped it off I was pleasantly surprised.  I really liked it.  I cut them apart and added black mats.  I 3D'd the front one.  Who knew backgrounds could be so much fun!

Shabby is NOT my thing, but thought I'd try one.  I took a page out of my old dictionary (the page with "shabby" on it)  crinkled it and inked it.  I had paper with two shades of purple and one of blue to use as a banner.  I took apart several flowers and put them together for one and added the gem in the center.  I also added the twine fake bow.  That's as shabby as I can get.

I followed sketch # 3 and came up with this card featuring Miss Lilly and Toby.  These were  a digital download.  After seeing this on the computer, I wish I had added wood grain to the brown.

I loved Jennifer's cards.  I had gold embossing powder so I tried her first one.  It was fun seeing the layers of gold melt until it really looked like metal.  I added sequins for the little berries.  I colored the butterflies two shades of blue and then used Embossing Tinsel "Snowflake" over them.
