red foil christmas

| Gerry Morse

Hello and welcome. Today’s card is one of those that looks much better in real life. Foil just doesn’t photograph well, at least for me. Embossing folder is Snowflakes by The Paper Studio, die is Framelits Holiday Ornaments by Stampin Up, ribbon is from my stash. Ornament was cut from Toner paper then foiled with the Mini Minc. Sentiment is a no name die cut from red glitter paper.

Cable Knit

| Gayle Chrvala

Using My Favorite Things Cable Knit stencil and Gina K Designs Christmas Pine ink, I inked my focal panel and inked the layering panel in the same color ink. Adding a silver embossed sentiment from Gina K’s Holly Jolly stamp set, a ribbon from my stash and Spellbinder’s oval nestabilities die completes this card today.

Autumn Birthday

I am guest designing for the Seize the Birthday challenge. I feel honored to be asked.

I used the following items on this card: Stitched and Postage dies are from Catherine Pooler, the main image is from Your Next Stamp Sweater Weather, the greeting is from Stampin Up Paper Pumpkin, and the inks are Gina K Designs Ocean Mist, Warm Cocoa, and Lawn Fawn Celery. I sprayed Gold Shimmer spray on the background. I used alcohol markers for the images.

blue christmas

| Gerry Morse

Hello and welcome. Well, I tried to avoid fractured cards for Christmas, but I just couldn’t do it.

Background paper was found on Pinterest. Square border is computer clip art and I added the sentiment. This is the first time I looked for background paper on Pinterest, I usually find it on Google. Now I have another source.

Thanks for stopping by your visits are very much appreciated. Have a great day and stay healthy & safe. And a very Happy Thanksgiving to you.

Hello and welcome. Making a little progress toward my Dec. 1 deadline.

Embossing folder is Holly by The Paper Studio, pp is Carta Bella found online, sentiment oval is computer clip art, dies used are Stitched Ovals by Die-namics. Ovals are popped up. Even though I feel I’m cheating, I think using the computer is a good alternative since my hands just don’t co-operate with stamping and coloring.

Thanks for stopping by your visits are very much appreciated. Have a great day and stay healthy & safe.

square diamond

| Gerry Morse

Hello and welcome. Finally, last Thanksgiving card for 2023. Patterned paper, image and sentiment were found online. Inside says “But what is the turkey Thankful for.” Dies used are Stitched Squares by Die-namics. I didn’t really want to just back the squares so I layed the background square as a diamond and I liked the look. I hope you do too.

Thanks for stopping by your visits are very much appreciated. Have a great day and stay healthy & safe.

Candy Cane Stripes

| Gayle Chrvala

This may be my beginning of my Christmas cards. Yikes, I’m so far behind but it will be ok. I think I work better under pressure, anyway. So for my card today, the Double D challenge is stripes and/or dots. My striped background was made using Taylored Expressions Easy Strips Maps, green and shimmer white cardstock cut into 1/2 inch strips, Catherine Pooler’s Stamp of Approval Candy Cane Lane stamp and die set, and Spellbinder’s Christmas Blooms dies.
