Hello crafty friends! Lien here with an elegant Christmas card! You can find out all the details in the youtube video below.

For this card I used my favorite stamp set from the new Reverse Confetti Holiday Release, the Poinsettia stamp set. I stamped the holly image twice with alcohol marker friendly ink onto Clairefontaine DCP 250 gsm cardstock. I colored them very simply with my Ohuhu markers. I did make sure to color the berries a lighter red than I normally would have because they would end up on a dark red background. I die cut them with the Coordinating confetti cuts which leaves a white edge all the way around. Since these will end up on a red background, I went over the white areas with the closest matching red marker in my collection.

These holly branches are going to be the decoration for my ornament which I cut with the beautiful Ornament die. I cut it once from gold glitter cardstock for the frame (you can easily turn this into a shaker!) and once from the same dark red cardstock I will use for my background. I cut 3 additional white layers to add dimension to this. Before putting the ornament together, I adhered the holly branches to my red circle with some liquid adhesive. I cut them apart to stretch them and fill the entire circle.

I also cut a background with the Brilliance Cover Panel and added some darker inkblending to the outer edges. With the middle of the card left lighter, it will draw the eye right to the center. I glued the ornament in the center and added a sentiment from the Christmas Card Greetings stamp set white heat embossed onto gold cardstock. I propped the sentiment up on foam tape and finished the card off with some gold pearls.

That gorgeous wreath is from the In All Things stamp set. I loosely watercolored it (Being a bit of a control freak, this style is difficult for me) and then cut it out with the coordinating dies. For some cozy vibes, I used the Folklore Control Panel Confetti Cuts. I diecut it from kraft cardstock, trimmed it down, and mounted it onto a white card. I adhered the wreath with foam squares. That beautiful, foiled sentiment is from the new Gather Hot Foil Combo. I hot-foiled it in gold and diecut it with the accompanying die. The supporting sentiment is from the Autumn Sentiments stamp. I heat-embossed the sentiment, trimmed it down, and popped up both sentiments with foam. I finished with a scattering of gold dots. Thanks for stopping by! *Affiliate links used at no cost to you.

Happy Fall ya'll! Yesterday was the first day of Autumn and while I am located in sunny California, that does not stop me from celebrating the changing of the seasons elsewhere. For today's project, I am sharing a card using supplies from some older lines as well as the new release.

I started this card with a white A2 panel that I ran through my die cut machine with the Folklore Cover Panel Confetti Cuts. I chose this panel because the background and texture reminds me of a sweater.

Next, I was feeling extra crafty this evening, and decided to grab some water color paper and my water color palette. I am no watercolor artists so I don't have anything fancy. I just knew I wanted some Fall colors, so I proceeded to wet my paper and then throw down some green, yellow, pink, brown and orange. I let those colors dry, with the aid of a heat gun (!), and then added more color and repeated that process a few times.

Once the panel was mostly dry I ran it through my die cut machine multiple times with the leaf Confetti Cut from the Flower Builder set. This leaf is still one of my favorite leaf dies that I own because of the detail on the die.

I arranged these leaves in little groups of 2 and 3 on the page and glued them down with liquid adhesive.

I used the 'Autumn Greetings' stamp from the Autumn Sentiments which is a part of the new release. I used black pigment ink on vellum and then heat embossed the sentiment with clear embossing powder. Then I wrapped the entire vellum piece around the back of my card panel.

Lastly, I glued the entire card panel onto an A2 card base and added a few gold shiny drops, as always, for some bling. That is it!

I love re-discovering fun ways to craft and this card helped me break out my watercolors. Hopefully it helps you get back to a first love as well!

Have a great weekend!

 When I saw the new Stamptember Reverse Confetti set call Fa La La Trees, I immediately had this design in my head for this stamp set.  I love to make Christmas cards with gold embossing and gold foil.  

I then stamped with Versamark ink and then applied Hero Arts Rich Pale Gold embossing powder and embossed the star, the large sentiment and a strip sentiment onto each panel.   I trimmed the panels down and added to a gold foil panel.   

I stamped another panel of the opposite color with the Background Builder stamp set.  On one panel I used the solid stripe and the other with the solid circle.  I love when I can

Hello crafty friends! Lien here with a simple Christmas card showcasing a combination of new and old products! Make sure to watch the video for the full tutorial!

For this card I used one of the beautiful images from the Yuletide Mice stamp set. I stamped it in Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I colored it in with my Ohuhu markers (you can watch the coloring process in the video below) and stamped it again with Versafine Onyx Black ink so I could add some embossing powder to the outline and make it nice and glossy.

I then took a piece of light blue cardstock and blended some darker blue inks on top, darkening up the edges and keeping the center light, this will help to draw attention to our focal image. To finish the background I wanted to add silver embossed splatter, this is really easy to do, just mix glue with a little bit of water, splatter it on, sprinkle on the embossing powder and heatset it. Stunning embossed splatter. But my ink blending wasn't dry yet, so the embossing stuck to the entire background. A great happy accident because it gave my background that beautiful look of a frosty window in the winter.

I die cut the gorgeous new Joy To The World confetti cut from my background and three more times out of thick white cardstock. I layered those pieces together and also saved all the small negative space pieces that were cut out. I did some die cut inlay on top of my cardbase, added the mouse with foam tape and finished the card off with some silver gems.

Isn't that die gorgeous?! When I saw it, I knew I wanted to pair it with the Adore Him and Joyous Holiday stamp sets. In order to fit the images and allow the diecut plenty of room to shine (pun intended), I created a 5"x7" card. To create my background, I cut a slope from masking paper, saving both pieces. I first masked the sky and blended Antique Linen distress ink for the hill. Next, I masked the hill and blended the sky with Salty Ocean, Prize Ribbon, Chipped Sapphire and Black Soot. I flicked white paint across the panel to represent stars. Once the background was dry, I adhered the diecut sentiment, which I had cut from gold glitter cardstock. I Copic-colored the images from Adore Him and Joyous Holiday and cut them out. I popped up the images with foam squares and added some Copic shading under the nativity to ground the image. I finished the card with a scattering of clear stars. Thanks for stopping by! *Affiliate links used at no cost to you.
