Day 5 Of My Craft Spot's Stamp Release Party

Hello everyone! It's the last day of sneak peeks for My Craft Spot's new releases! Tomorrow we will be having a BLOG HOP with the full release of the stamp sets! There will also be a new stamp set up for grabs at every stop in the hop.

Today we are showing sneak peeks of the new Mistletoe stamp set. 

I am always giving gift cards for Christmas and wanted a fun "wrapping" for them. I decide to give this a try and LOVE how it turned out. Not only does it hold the gift card, but you can also hang it on your tree!

I cut 2 of the stocking from Christmas Cheer at 9.21 inches. One for the front and one for the back. I lined them up and trimmed off the top cuffs. I used tacky tape and glued the sides together and added the snowflake and tree. I also embossed the toe and cuff of the stocking. I cut a 2 1/4 X 4 inch piece of cardstock for the gift card and glued it to the insides, sandwiched,  of the cuff.

I created the tag using a tag cut from TBBM and punched an oval for the center. I stamped the sentiment and mounted it using a pop dot. I tied a crinkle ribbon bow and added a punched snowflake with a button and jute string center.  

Thanks so much for visiting all week long for the sneak peeks! I hope you enjoyed all the projects I shared this week and have inspired you! Make sure you go to My Craft Spot for the daily prize and come back tomorrow for the BLOG HOP! There will be lots of great projects and a stamp set will be given away at each blog in the hop! Have a great day!

Snowman Hugs!

Hello everyone! It sure is nice to get back to my craft room! I have been so busy with the holidays that it's been tough getting back into the swing of things. So I started by making this card to enter into My Craft Spots Monday challenge which is Winter Wonderland and you must include glitter.
I cut the tag from Tags, Bags, Boxes, and More and embossed the background mat with the Cuttlebug Snowflakes folder. I the took sandpaper and sanded over the embossing to let the white show through. The snowman was cut from Christmas Cheer and I added silver stickles to his scarf and misted him with Pearl Glimmer Mist. I added some fibers to the bottom of the tag as well as the top. I made a mat and stamped the sentiment which is from Whimsical Designs Snow Much Fun stamp set. The background of the card I embossed with the Cuttlebug Textile folder and added dots of clear stickles. To finish I punched some snowflakes and layered them together and added gems to the centers.
I hope you all like my card and thanks for visiting! Have a wonderful day!

Reindeer Crossing

Happy Friday everyone! Here is a fun card that I made for a couple of challenges.
I made the card base by welding 2 tags together from Winter Frolic and cut the co-ordinating mats. I inked around all the edges and used a black pen for the dash line on the red and a gold pen for the dotted line on the white. The reindeer were cut from Christmas Cheer and I inked them and used a black pen to highlight their faces, their hooves, and noses. Thats ALOT easier than trying to cut and glue such little pieces. The tree were cut from a border in Winter Frolic and I added clear glitter glue to them. The sentiment is from Whimsical Designs Snow Much Fun stamp set. I stamped it in red and embossed it with clear. The holly leaves were from a punch that I inked and added the clear glitter glue to them also. I am going to enter this into the following challenges:
1. My Craft Spots Monday challenge- Make a shape card
2. More Than Favors Wacky Wednesday- Christmas
3. BBTB2- Winter Frolic Tag

LFIF Recipe Card Challenge

Hello everyone! Here is the card that I made for Peachy Keens LFIF challenge. This time the challenge is to make a recipe card and use a Peachy Keen face.
I got my inspiration for the girl from Miss Emma at My Creative Time. She showed how to print and cut the girl from Imagine Best Friends and stamp the face. So that's what I did. I don't have an E2, so I just flood filled the body with a skin tone and printed and cut it.
I made a Z Fold Pocket Card by cutting a 12 X 4 1/2 inch piece of cardstock. I scored it at 6 and 9 inches. I then cut a piece of cardstock at 2 7/8 X 4 1/2 for the pocket on the inside. I used a Sampin Up Poka Dot stamp and stamped the paper and cut and puched a trim piece for the pocket. I cut the girls body at 4 inches and her hair, shoes, and head I printed and cut. The only reason I printed and cut her head was to get the pig tails. I trimmed off the pig tails, glued them to the head and stamped the face with a Peachy Keen Wide Eyed Kids stamp. For her clothes, I used the Cricut Craft Room! I was able to size the clothes to her body. You are able to combine Imagine cuts and regular Cricut carts....I LOVE this feature in CCR! So I used the dress from Once Upon A Princess and the hat from Paper Doll Dress Up. I used a white pen and did some highlights on her dress and added some white trim to her dress and the ball of the hat. The list was cut from Christmas Cheer and I hand wrote Cookies at the top and some squiggle lines for the writing. I printed out the recipe and mounted it to cardstock. The gingerbread men were cut from Paper Doll Dress Up and I used white and black pens for the highlights and stickles for the buttons. I added a tab by punching an oval shape, folded it in half, and added twine to the end and slid it into the pocket.  I also printed the inside sentiment from my computer and added Glossy Accents to the girls eyes.
I hope you survived my EXTREMELY long post and liked my card! Have a great day and thanks for looking!
I am going to link this up and Robins Creative Cottage in her linky/stamp release party!

JOY Snowman

Hi everyone! Here is a card that I made for several challenges. I cut the snowman from Christmas Cheer at 3.5 inches and the snowflakes from Wrap It Up at 1 inch. I chalked around the edges of the snowman, scarf, and snowflakes with blue. Then I used my alphabet stamp set to stamp the letters J O and Y. I tied a piece of string around the snowman's hands and pop dotted the snowflakes to the snowman. I also embossed snowflakes on the white backround with my Cuttlebug and added a matching strip of pattern paper on the inside. I am entering this into the following challenges:

1. Paper Playtime- Snowmen

2. Cricut Cardz- Christmas card with mini banner

3. Paper Cutz- Snowman or snowflakes

Holiday Ornament Card

Happy Friday everyone! I made this card using the Christmas Cheer cart. Ever since I got this cart I couldn't wait to use these cute ornaments! I cut them at 2 inches and added some "bling" on them and also used my white gel pen to do the dots around the outside. I cut the star on the big one twice and off centered the silver one and pop dotted it to get this look. I also pop dotted all the ornaments on the white layer. The pattern paper is from My Minds Eye O' Christmas Tree stack. The sentiment is a stamp from Michaels. These pictures really don't do it justice. This card is SO PRETTY! I hope you all have a great weekend. We are having a 40th birthday party for my husband! I will post pics later of the things I made for his party using my Cricut. Take care everyone!

I am entering this in the following challenges:

1. More Than Favors- Christmas

2. Cricut Cardz- Anything goes

3. Paper Cutz- Anything goes

Z Fold Winter Card

Happy Sunday everyone! This is the card that I made for The Pink Stamper's Winter Challenge. I created the snowflake border in Design Studio using Christmas Cheer. The paper is from My Mind's Eye Oh Christmas Tree stack. I cut out one of the trees from one of the patterned pieces and pop dotted it. The silver snowflake is a brad. I hope you all are enjoying this beautiful Sunday! Take Care!
