I'm the host for this challenge, I was happy that we decided to add a Birthday challenge to our line up.

This card was designed for my card buffet. I wanted to show how to make a beautiful background with the Glossy Cardstock. With Sponge Daubers I swirled ink starting right to left, Blushing Bride, Flirty Flamingo, Calypso Coral and Cajun Craze, Spritzed with water.

Cardstock used is Blushing Bride, Basic Black and Glossy. I used the Happy Birthday Thinlit to cut the greeting out of Basic Black Cardstock.

Carols of Christmas

This is the first card I have made with the Carols of Christmas Bundle! I am sure there will be more to follow! 

The card is all Whisper White and Night of Navy and I love how it turned out.

This bundle will be in the upcoming Holiday catalog but is pre-released for customers to order this month!

Check back tomorrow and I will share a card that Loni Spendlove made with the bundle. I loaned her my bundle while she waited for hers to arrive and she gave me two of the cards she made and said I could share them on my blog.

Watercooler Wednesday Challenge 130 - Gail's Feminine "Anything Goes" Challenge

Gail is hosting this challenge. There is an abundance of stamps in the StampinUP! catalog that work for this challenge, narrowing them down is the hard part.

This is a CASE of a card in the demonstrator quarterly magazine. I step it up and change all the colors, I used the same package of Fresh Florals DSP, just a different color and I used the same stamp set, Label Me Pretty. Label Me Pretty is bundled with the punch.

Cardstock used is Berry Burst and Whisper White, the DSP is also Berry Burst. I wrapped a piece of Organza Ribbon (from my stash) layered with a fold of Berry Burst Finely Woven Ribbon.

I stamped the Image from Label Me Pretty with Basic Gray Ink on Thick Whisper White Cardstock, coloring it with ink and an Aqua Painter. Punched with the Pretty Label Punch and popped over the ribbon with Dimensionals.

Watercooler Wednesday Challenge 129 - Libby's All About Christmas Challenge

Libby is hosting our Challenge this week!

It is All About Christmas.

I give around 100 or more Christmas cards each year, it helps if I start making them early so this is a perfect challenge to help me get some done.

I love the stamp set Star of Light! I wish the photo really showed how beautiful this card turned out.

I used Night of Navy Cardstock for the base with a layer of Whisper White Cardstock. I sponged a piece of Glossy White Cardstock with Dapper Denim, Night of Navy and Elegant Eggplant inks, after buffing and heat setting the inks I heat embossed the swirl and greeting with White Embossing Powder. I cut a piece of White Glimmer Paper with the Starlight Thinlits popping it up with thin strips of Dimensionals.

Watercooler Wednesday Challenge 128 - Heidi's Masculine "Anything Goes" Challenge

Heidi is hosting this weeks challenge, I love when we have a masculine, they are a little harder to do and we always seem to need cards for many different occasions. I left the sentiment off the front and then I will be able to add one to the inside when I have occasion to need a masculine card.

This is a fast and simple card and will be available in this week stamp classes. 

The base is Thick Very Vanilla Cardstock and the ovals are Early Espresso and Very Vanilla. I love the DSP it is one from Wood Textures DSP Stack, I love this stack of paper the colors in the woods are so rich!

The image is from Heartland Stamp Set stamped in Early Espresso Ink.
