  • Silver Christmas Wreath

    Julie Warner – https://thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com
    Today’s Ways to Use It Challenge on Splitcoast (WT453) is all about wreaths. I die cut a little wreath out of brushed silver card stock and added some die cut holly leaves and berries cut out of silver mirror card stock. The greeting was silver embossed on some pretty, metallic flecked charcoal card stock. The background was also silver embossed on a larger piece. The finished card is 4.25 x 5.50 and was really easy to make.

  • NCC Look Back at the Oct Release

    NCC Southern Santa 02252
    Today we are looking back at the North Coast Creations October Release!  I just love this Christmas Beach scene and I thought it would be fun to put a frame around it and have Santa wearing a beach outfit. After looking thru my NCC images, I figured out I could put Santa’s face (from Holly Jolly Christmas) on Pool Time Buford’s body and have a Santa all ready to go for a swim. The only thing I did other than color and cut them out, was to draw the socks on his feet. I added the greeting and little clouds on top of the frame.

    The finished card is 5.50 x 4.25 and these are the Copics I used to color everything.NCC Southern Santa copics 02243

    On my first card, I used The Earth, Vintage Pattern Mini 1,  the Circle Ornament dies and the ODBD Christmas Paper Collection 2013.  After stamping the earth ornament and die cutting it, I added a die cut red bow, holly leaves and berries to the top. The left side of the cardinal paper was die cut and I added another die cut piece of red underneath to help define the border. The lt green/vanilla bg was stamped with Vintage Mini Pattern 1 and the green ink. The dk green is another sheet of the Christmas paper collection. I added a few die cut hanging stars to finish my 5.50 x 4.25 card.

    Supplies:

    Stamps: Our Daily Bread designs – The Earth, Vintage Pattern Mini 1
    Paper: vanilla, red linen, ODBD Christmas Paper Collection 2013
    Ink:  Distress Ink in fired brick, HA Field Greens
    Accessories:  ODBD Circle Ornament dies, Spellbinders bracket border, Asian accents (dk green behind the ornament) & nested pennant dies, Memory Box precious stars die

    Julie Warner - https://thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.comOn my second card, I used 4 inks to pounce/sponge color on white c/s then stamped the 2 large ornaments of the Vintage Pattern Ornament set w/ Versafine onyx. I wanted a much smaller ornament so I die cut a smaller circle and w/ the die still in place, I stamped the Vintage Pattern Mini 1 inside then drew the border w/ a fine black marker. I added a few dots w/ a white gel pen for some contrast. On the 2 border strips, I stamped the Vintage Pattern Mini 1 & Vintage Pattern Mini 2 and attached them to the front of my 4.25 x 5.50 card. The greeting was stamped with a combination of  red & green inks. The two smaller bows are from the stars die cut.
