So here my card, it's a different kind of a joy fold card which I found online here;
 The only thing I change, was the use the different Spellbinders dies. Here is a picture of the inside.
 
I started off using dark blue metallic & Chocolate chip paper for the base and then use the latest Bo Bunny release called 'Powder Mountain' for the rest. I used 'Andrew' by Lia Stampz and again colored the boy using my Prismacolor pencils and adding Twinkling Clouds glitter flocking that you find only at the Sparkle N Sprinkle Store for his hat pompom. I cut the boy out using scissor and mounted him on square  cut out by using Spellbinders die 'Classic Square large' which is mounted on chipboard and then on a Spellbinders 'Label 18'. For the left side I used Spellbinders die called 'Classic Scallop Square large' using Chocolate Chip paper and then used a smaller die using 'Powder Mountain Nightfall' paper. To hold the papers together I used a layered chipboard from the same collection. I also printed out two sentiments onto shimmery white paper from the Whimsy Stamps called Christmas Greetings 'Let it Snow' and from the Season's Greetings set as shown. I sponged on French Blue and Blue Iris Fluid Chalk to tone down the white paper.

Loves Rubberstamps - Design Day




















I'm back with another Christmas card for Loves Rubberstamps Design Day. This time I decided to make a 6"square card using Chocolate Chip paper for my base. I used Bo Bunny 'Noel' for the rest of my papers. I used the stamp from La Blanche called 'Santa with Holly' and you can see Laura has a few la Blanche stamps here; http://www.lovesrubberstamps.net/category_115/LaBlanche.htm and if you like this particular stamp, Laura would gladly bring this one in. I stamped Santa onto LaBlanche Specialty paper that they use for their stamps and colored Santa using Tim Holtz distress markers. I added some Ranger glitter called 'Stardust' which comes in a really cute container almost like salt & pepper shaker for Santa's beard and hair. I then used Ranger's Perfect Pens to add embossing ink so I could add some clear UTEE over top of the holly leaves, and frame around Santa. I then cut out some holly leaves from Tim Holtz 'Holiday Wreath' die using light green glitter paper. I gave the leaves some dimension by using Tim Holtz Alcohol inks to color the green glitter paper using the following colors, Presto, Meadow, Clover, Bottle and Red Pepper for the berries.
I stamped the Santa's List by Whimsy Stamps and again you can find them here; http://www.lovesrubberstamps.net/category_146/Raindrop-Echo-Designs-Sentiments-Collection.htm
using olive pigment ink and embossed using gold embossing powder. I then colored with Tim Holtz distress markers. I added some gold ribbon and bow from Michael's.

This week I'm back with another card for Stamping Dragons and this week we were asked to make a Birthday Card. So here is my card, I used Early Espresso paper for the base which is a 5"x 7" finished card size. I used Basic Grey 'Kioshi' for the rest of my papers. I used "Oooo cake" and colour him using my Prismacolor pencils. I cut him out leaving a halo. I added some Berry Pudding glitter tinsel by Sparkle N Sprinkle for the icing on the cake. You can find it here; http://sparklensprinkle.com/o/index.php?cPath=23_194
I cut out a frame from Memory box die called 'Tiffany Frame' using Basic Grey paper. I cut out 2 flourishes using purple glitter paper and used Tim Holtz die called 'Elegant Flourishes'. I cut out another flourish using another Memory Box die called 'Valerian Flourish' using another Basic Grey paper.
