Hot Chocolate Cup o' Christmas

I created these super cute hot chocolate treat pouches for an upcoming Pop Up Shop that I am participating in and I wanted to share them with you, of course this is Day # 24 of a Christmas Card a Day, so I had to make a coordinating card as well. The belly band on the pouch is from the Come to Gather DSP, the Cherry Cobbler ribbon is from the Night Before Christmas Suite and of course the cups and the Reversible Cup of Christmas Bundle! I think they are just adorable!

Holiday Shaker!

I decided to create a whole BUNCH of holiday themed shaker cards! Using the Foam Adhesive Strips to create the ‘shaker’ section made this task easy peasy! The background DSP is the Come to Gather paper from the Holiday Catalogue. I stamped the frame using the snowflake image from the Free Skate stamp set and the die cut snowflakes are from the Frosted Frames die. Tis the Season is cut from red foil paper using the Jolly Season dies. I went though my stash of sequins and used up all of those—let me tell you, it was quite satisfying to have two empty containers when I was done! I added in a pinch of the Ice Stampin’ glitter and punched a bunch of red stars out with a long retired star border punch. The Twinkle builder punch would be a close substitute! I hope you enjoy Day 23 of Christmas Cards!

Everyone does love a good shaker card—even better when it is Holiday Style!

Christmas Blessings

I wanted to share another card using the Light & Peace stamp set from the Holiday Catalogue. I wanted to focus on the Angel image from the stamp set. I did some background stamping with the Bible Verse from Luke and added in a second sentiment, Christmas Blessings. I love the soft feel of the card. It needed a little greenery so I cut some with the Beautiful Boughs dies (pg 15). I did add some Wink of Stella to the Angel and added a bit of a halo to her with a Pool Party Blend. I hope you are inspired to see the versatility of this set!

Light & Peace

My card today for November 21st, 2019 (yes, 21 days of cards so far!) is this soft and spiritual card featuring the Light & Peace stamp set from the Holiday Catalogue (pg 29). I coloured the image with the Stampin’ Blends in the softest of colors for an almost water-colour feel. The sentiment is embossed in silver and I added some interest with DSP, ribbon and sequin strips underneath. The Subtles embossing folder gives the card just the perfect amount of texture. I am so happy with this card that I plan on making several more for family members and am offering it as a part of my Spiritual Christmas class on Thursday, Dec 4th. If you are in the Edmonton area, I hope you will join me!
