I did not realize it's been so long since I added a card to my blog. But it's Christmas time and I am busy again making cards. Here are some of the ones I have created. I used the three wise men stamp and embossed. The tree is a new sizzix die on a tri-fold card.

Easy To Do





These have been done with embossing folders and dies. Very simple and quick when you don't have a lot of time. I used dies from Papertrey Ink, Spellbinders and Cheery Lynn Designs, and embossing folders from Sizzix and Cuttlebug. Punch used for label EK Success. The stamp is from Our Daily Bread Designs.

Trailing leaves


I used the trailing leaves, flowers, and dragonfly from cheerylynn designs on the first card; then used the negative cutout of the leaves on the second card (no waste).

Cherry Blossoms

I'm so excited with my new dies; I had to make another card. I used the dragonfly again and the Cherry Blossom with the Fanciful Flourish (all from Cheerylynn Designs).
I added more flourish.

Laugh


I received my order from Cheerylynn Designs today, so I had to see what they would look like and I made this card with the Dragonfly and the Victorian Romance Flourish.
Quick card.

The Door

I used patterned paper, and embossed it with a embossing folder, then antiqued it with distress ink (rusty hinge and walnut stain). I used Gina K Stamp set "The Journey", and spellbinders and embossing powder for sentiment and stamp. I used brown and ivory cardstock.

This is the embossing and distressing technique.
