Delightful Decorations

Hello, my crafting friends!  I appreciate you stopping by to see my Delightful Decorations Christmas card.  The Christmas ornament in the center of the card is a nativity scene that I created with the Our Daily Bread Designs Delightful Decorations Dies.  The Noel sentiment was created with the Our Daily Bread Designs Noel Die.

The Splitcoaststampers.com crafting site is holding its second annual Falliday Fest!  I created this card for one of the Falliday Fest Challenges as well as the Splitcoastampers Clean and Simple Challenge (CAS) for this week.  Continue reading

Happy Birthday – Falliday Fest

Thanks for stopping by, my friends!  My card share today is a Happy Birthday card that I made for the Splitcoaststampers Falliday Fest.  Dr Sonja’s (Sonja Van Laar) Falliday Fest Challenge (FF16DrSonja) is related to a card drive for Hospice of St. Francis in Melbourne, FL.  She asked for birthday cards with wrinkles.  The technique she recommended to get wrinkles is the Faux Silk Technique (tutorial).

This Happy Birthday card is a gate-fold card that I created using the Spellbinders Die mentioned below.  I cut the gate fold from Tempting Turquoise Card Stock and adhered to it a panel made with the same Spellbinders die using SU Flock Together DSP.

To get wrinkles on the card, I followed the Faux Silk Technique.  Once the tissue was dry, I wrinkled it and adhered it to the center piece of the card.  I stamped the SU Happy Birthday Greetings stamp in Tempting Turquoise ink and onto the tissue paper.


Stamps: SU Happy Birthday Greetings

Paper: SU Tempting Turquoise, Very Vanilla, and So Saffron Card Stock, and SU Flock Together DSP

Firm Reliance on Divine Providence! 
 

Jesus said to his disciples, “No good tree bears bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear good fruit.  Each tree is recognized by its own fruit.  People do not pick figs from thorn-bushes, or grapes from briers.  The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and the evil man brings evil things our of the evil stored up in his heart. For out of the overflow of his heart his mouth speaks.”  Luke 6:43-45

FF16diniA, Delightful Decorations

This post is a continuation of projects I did for the Splitcoaststampers Falliday Fest. This card features the ODBD Delightful Decorations Stamp Set and was my submission to Dina K’s (Dini) Falliday Fest Challenge (FF16diniA).  Dina asked for cards made from die cutting a shape(s) from painter’s or masking tape, laying the die cut tape on watercolor paper, and creating a background around the masks using watercolors or sponged/stamped inks.  I used the ODBD Delightful Decorations Stamp Set to create my masks and watercolor around.
