Hello friends! I am back with another post, a long one ;) loaded with Christmas cards... Yeah! My card making is still on. I did not anticipate, I will run short of Christmas cards :D
In this post I have used one stamp and have created 4 Christmas cards with it. I have used STAMPlorations Holiday Sketches - Christmas flower. There is one extra card, that I made earlier and was unable to share. So here I go...

To make this I used Pretty Pink Posh borders 1 die and cut out 3 strips, Stamped the poinsettia twine and fuzzy cut and colored them in shade of green n red. Next I laid it all on card base after adding some gold ink splatter. Finished with sequins n sentiment. I am sharing this at Showcase your Style #4 - Sketch, Color Q #272, Christmas Card Challenge #2 - CAS and to my team leader Kylie's Christmas Card Challenge. Kylie is offering a fabulous prize of customized watermark & signature worth $40. You can check out the fab watermark she designed for me... absolutely the way I wanted. Here's how it looks...
My next card is another fun, though it looks like it has multiple layers, it is just one layers with all inlaid together.

To make this card, I cut the lower end of the upper panel of the card, heat embossed the poinsettia in white and did some distress resist inking in shades of pink. Next I adhered a backing to finish the lower layers and inlaid them together after cutting them with PPP border dies. To finish the card, I added the sentiment and sequins. Linking this to Color Throwdown #323, CAS(E) this Sketch #104 and Stamping Royalty #259 - OLC
My third card is another fun design...

Here I crushed a kraft card stock panel to texturize it, layered it on another patterned paper. Gold heat embossed the poinsettia and adhered it all on card base to finish I added a twine and sentiment.I am sharing this with Sketch Saturday #340, Just Add ink #245, Cupcake Inspiration #291, A Gem of a Challenge #134 - Anything Christmas
My last design uses stencil and some stamping.

I stenciled the BG in blue to give a faded effect, Next I created a panel by repeated stamping the sentiment. Stamped, fuzzy cut and colored the poinsettia in red and adhered it on card base, To finish I added some twine. I am sharing this with City Crafter Challenge #242 - Christmas Color, Freshly made Sketches #167 and Curtain Call Inspiration challenge - Candy Cane
Now my final card...

This used the STAMPlorations Joyful set, I used some patterned papers for Paper piecing and designing this card. I am sharing this with Color Me #51 - Be Merry!, Jingle Bells Challenge - Anything Goes!, 613 Avenue Create #102 - Anything Goes and Simon Says Stamp - Winter Inspiration
Thank you being patient with this long post and a big thank you for leaving me a comment.
Woah Deepti! These are seriously FUN and GORGEOUS cards! Can't decide which one I like best, but my eyes are constantly drawn to card #3 (I love that crumpled kraft and all the brown!) and card #5 (totally crushing on the paper-pieced stockings!).
ReplyDeleteFabulous cards, Deepti! I love the soft pink background on the second one. Well I would, wouldn't I, it's distress inks!

ReplyDeleteDeepti, they're all so beautiful! I love the design on that first card and know I'll have to CASE this. Fabulous cards.
