Productive Day Today

 I felt very creative today and completed three cards. One of the cards even required me to create my own plaid background because I forgot to order Plaid Tidings Designer Series Paper on my last order with Stampin' Up. I used the shawl I purchased in Scotland in June 2014 as an inspiration. Here's a photo of the shawl.

This is the card inspired by the above photo I used the Yuletide Pasture stamp set and created the plaid using Balmy Blue, Highland Heather, Rococo Rose and Smoky Gray inks.

Nest up is a card using Gnome For The Holidays stamp set. Cardstock colours are Real Red, Confetti (no longer available) and Just Jade.

The last card uses a background I created using black cardstock and Micro Powders I was going for the Northern Lights look. Then I stamped and heat embossed the moon using white embossing powder. Then I added the trees from Lovely As  Tree (no longer available) and then I used the Moose Punch from SU and cut out two moose from the Balmy Blue Sparkly DSP. Sentiment is from Yuletide Pasture. I also used some gel paste and coloured it with a drop of Pear Pizzaz re-inker for the stars.

Hello, I'm Barb

I joined Stampin' Up ® on June 3rd, 2020 as an Independent Demonstrator. I'm so glad I did because now I can make my cards knowing that the products I use are of excellent quality, Stampin' Up (a.k.a.SU) stands behind their product and I want to share all the goodies with you!

Here is the first card I made using the Prized Peony Bundle and the Peony Garden Designer Series Paper (aka DSP).


To add a little drama to the card, I used the Forever Gold Laser-Cut Specialty Paper.
