Jingle All the Way!

Here is a cute set of cards that uses the Jingle All the Way stamp set, which comes bundled along with the Sleigh Ride Edgelits Dies.  These edgelits are really neat and easy to use with your Big Shot.  This card uses the Circle Framelits to create a circle behind which the town and moon can be seen.  Silver Glimmer Paper stars are punched from the Confetti Stars Border Punch.  Pretty White Glitter Ribbon and Silver Cording add extra bling!

This card uses the famous (and hard to find!) Woodland Textured Impressions Embossing Folder to create beautiful birch trees.  Use a sponge with just a tad of Basic Grey Ink to lightly shade the trees after embossing.  Silver Cording is used to make a bow next to the Jingle All the Way sentiment.  The sleigh is punched out of Real Red and Basic Black cardstock, using the Sleigh Ride Edgelit Dies,  to create a shadow effect.

The background of this card is created with the pretty Softly Falling Textured Impressions Embossing Folder to give the look of snow.  All three of the Sleigh Ride Edgelits are used in this card, as they form the hills and valleys in this snowy town.  The sentiment is stamped before embossing and the sparkly Winter Wonderland Embellishment is attached with a glue dot or two.

I love using the Big Shot to create cards.  It makes a beautiful card quick and easy and it turns out looking very professional.  I hope these cards give you some inspiration this weekend!

Oh What Fun!

I just finished making my Tags from the Oh What Fun Tag Project Kit!  These were so much fun to make.  Everything comes in the kit except adhesives, stamps and ink.  The tags all punch out easily and everything else comes ready to put together...jingle bells, gold bows, glittery ornaments, silver doilies and stars, ribbons galore, sequins and more!  All you need is the Oh What Fun Stamp Set (or similar set) to stamp the words and three ink pads in Real Red, Mint Macaron (what a pretty color!) and Garden Green.

I hope you get a chance to try this kit.  It's even on sale right now!  I was pleasantly surprised with how easy it all went together and how professional my tags are going to look this year!  Merry Christmas!
