Hello everyone… Today I have a CAS, Christmas card to share with you. It is quick and easy to make with digital stamp.

I am using A Christmas Hello Digital Stamp from Graciellie Design. It is a beautiful Christmas digital stamp set. I pairing it up with the Holiday Traditions Digital Paper.

I printed one of the digital papers on a white cardstock, and then I added it on the card with adhesive glue.

Next, I printed the poinsettia and pinecone on a heavyweight white cardstock with inkjet. And then I colored it with Arteza Real Brush Pens. This time I did not use any waterbrush, I just use the brush pens to blend the colors.

After coloring, I cut the cardstock using one of the Large Banner Dies from Our Daily Bread Design. Before I added it on the card, I wrapped around the red twine that I actually colored it using the Rockin’ Red Catherine Pooler Ink and water.

I simply dabbed the ink pad on a craft mat, sprayed with water, and dibbed the natural burlap twine. I used my tweezers to mix it. But still… the ink got to my finger… I ended up with red fingers… I dried the twine with craft heater.

After I wrapped the twine around the pennant banner, I added it on the card with adhesive glue.

I added the colored pennant banner on the card with .. Then I printed the sentiment and trimmed it into sentiment strip. I added it on the card with adhesive glue.

I embellished the card with some of the clear holographic sequins for extra bling.

That’s my card today and I hope you enjoy this card today and give you more inspiration to create Christmas cards.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Have a wonderful day.

It is official… October is here and Fall is here, too! I am thankful for this season just like this quote from L. M. Montgomery, “I am so thankful to live in the world where there are Octobers”. Today, I have a CAS, Thankful card to share with you all.

The inspirations from the CUTplorations October Challenge image is what inspire my card today that I created using the Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle Nesting Dies, Bracket Labels/Tags Nesting Dies, Thankful Word Die, Wonderfall Time Stamp Set.

First, I created the background using smooshing technique with Distress Ink Pads (Spiced Marmalade and Wild Honey) and water. I used watercolor paper for this technique. I dried the watercolor paper with craft heater and then I stamped the leaves from the Wonderfall Time Stamp Se on the watercolored panel with VersaFine Clair Summertime Ink Pad. After stamping, I cut it with the largest size of the Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle Nesting Dies. I added it on a white card with adhesive glue.

I cut a piece of brown glitter cardstock using one of the Bracket Labels/Tags Nesting Dies and then cut a piece of white cardstock with the smaller size from the same nesting die set. I added both of them on the card with adhesive glue.

I stamped the pumpkin from the Wonderfall Time Stamp Set with VersaFine Onyx Black Ink Pad and then colored it with Arteza Real Brush Pens and blended the colors with waterbrush. I dried the image with craft heater and then fussy cut it with micro-tip scissors. I added pumpkin on the card with adhesive glue, too.

For the sentiment, I cut a piece of gold metallic cardstock with Thankful Word Die and I added it on the card with the same adhesive glue.

Happy Fall Y’all! October has arrived and it is official Fall is here, too. I am so grateful for this wonderful season God has created for us.

It is time for new challenge! And today, I have a Fall/coffee themed card to share with you all that I created using stamp sets from Joy Clair.

Here are the photos that inspire me to create this card for the Joy Clair October challenge:

I used the Harvest Blessing Stamp Set and Christmas Cocoa Stamp Set on this card.

I stamped the cups and pumpkins on a watercolor paper with VersaFine Onyx Black Ink Pad using my Mini MISTI.

After that, I colored them using Leisure Arts Watercolored Pencils. I dried the images and then fussy cut them with micro-tip scissors.

I added some of the Spiced Marmalade Distress Oxide Ink and Fossilized Distress Oxide Ink On another watercolor paper that I cut into 4.25″ x 5.5″ using smooshing technique. After that I dried it with craft heater and then I added it on a card with dries-clear adhesive.

I stamped the sentiment twice with HA Ombre Autumn Ink Pad using Mini MISTI.

Next, I added the shorter cup on the card with dries-clear adhesive and then I added the taller cup with 3D foam tape.

That’s my card today and I hope this give you an inspiration to create and to join the October Challenge.
