Jolly Old Saint Nick Cards

October 27, 2010 by
jolly-old-st-nick-joanne-weimersThe Jolly Old Saint Nick stamp set (121711 wood, 121321 clear mount) is a darling new holiday set found in the new 2010 Holiday Mini Catalog. I think it is sooo stinkin' cute, I love this Santa "winking". Here are 2 great cards created from the set, the card to the right was designed by Joann Wiemers. She watercolored the image for a soft look (click here for a video on watercoloring > ). The card below was created by Susie Wood, Susie used the Stampin' Write markers for her Santa image. Both coloring mediums look fabulous on the set.

VIDEO TUTORIAL: French Foliage Masking Technique

October 24, 2010 by
french-foliage-wendy-burke-2Here in New England, the leaves are changing and falling and simply gorgeous! My favorite time of year. The stamp set reflects my mood perfectly with it's beautiful realistic leaf images. It's called "French" Foliage I'm sure because of it's pretty french script words that compliment it so well...I'm going to dub it "New England Foliage" with french words hehehe. Today's video technique will be sharing a great accordian card fold, and masking technique that gives the illusion of multiple layers. Join in with me as I used clear mount and wood mount stamps together, in harmony (yes, it can be done). Laugh along with, or at me, as I struggle to remember new product names and more!

From the Crypt – Halloween Gift Set Tutorial

October 22, 2010 by
ciaf-newsletter I LOVE this From the Crypt Stamp Set! I designed this gift set originally for a spotlight eatured in Debbie McNeill's demonstrator newsletter. My kids went crazy over it, so we made some with their friends. I love seeing their cool creations, they inspire me. These treat bags make great party favors, and goody bags. I used the Fancy Favor Die (115965) for the Big Shot, Wicked Fun Specialty Paper (117400) and the from the Crypt Stamp Set (115460). And of course, can't forget my favorites Spider Web Impressions Folder (120889) and Bitty Bat Punch (119279). So easy, a 9 year old can do it;)
