Embellished Curvey Ornaments by Emily Moore Designs


 Hello friends.  Today I have a couple of cards that I created with the new Curvy Ornaments Nested Dies by Emily Moore Designs.  I also used her new Christmas Charms to adorn the ornament hanger.  Now, I am all about stretching your stash, so I pulled out her Necklace Dies to embellish my ornaments.  

I used the medium sized ornament for these cards.  I used the chain from the Necklace Die set that has the little hearts on it.  The reason I chose those; I could shape them a little easier than the other dies in that set.  I needed to cut that piece out three times in order to have enough chain for each ornament. 

For the green ornament, I used a matte gold metallic cardstock, which I thought it gave the ornament an elegant look.


 For the red ornament, I wanted a more folksy vibe, so I used a cream-colored cardstock.


I selected the snowflake from the Christmas Charm set and cut them out of a gold glittered cardstock.  

The sentiment is Simply Sentimental: Merry Die Set my Trinity Stamps.  

I really like the way both of these turned out and look forward to sending them off this season.

Thanks for stopping by!

You Had Me At Sharkcuterie


 

Hello, crafty friends! Skip the snackle box—today we’re serving up a deliciously fun Sharkcuterie Board! I created this clever card with the new Sharkcuterie Board Stamp Set by Pajama Crafter Stamps. I’m not sure how these treats would taste, but they sure look fintastic!

To set the scene, I layered a stamped and ink blended paper with another piece of paper that was stenciled with the Casted Net Stencil. I added a bit of jute beside the sentiment for the perfect seaside touch.

Friends Like You Are the Coolest


Hello!  Are you looking for a quick and cute card?  How about using a few of Trinity Stamps new dies and stamps along with their Emergency Card Essentials #1.

The checkerboard background was created with the Checkered Background Stencil and the Checkered Background Add On Striped Squares with Prize Ribbon Distress Oxide Ink.

I used the Outdoor Borders and Scene Builders Die Set to cut out the grass and clouds in the center circle.  

The cooler is the new Tiny Cooler Die Set and the sentiment is from the new Cooler Sentiments Stamp Set.  

This is such a fun and cheery card don't you think.  I left the inside blank so that I could use this as a notecard or for a number of occasions.
