The Season of Music

It is Shirley here today.  I hope you all are having a joyous time celebrating Christmas with your family and friends.    My card today is a little different for a Christmas card.  The music on my card today reminds me  of days past, when I was a child.  We had such a good time singing Christmas carols and celebrating the season.  

I started my card by sponging my card stock with Picked Raspberry,  Mustard Seed and Evergreen Bough Distress stain.  

I stamped the sentiment on the card using Impression Obsessions' Christmas Sentiments stamp set.  I adhered the Memory Box Party Music over the top of the sponged colors.   I used silver card stock to make the Small Snowflakes by Impression Obsession.  I wrapped my card up by adhering the pieces to the card using Art Institute Dries Clear Adhesive.

Merry Christmas to you and your families.

Be Merry

Hi Diane here with you today, with another Christmas card to share.

I started with a red card stock base, then embossed white card stock with Crafts Too Dots embossing folder.

I cut a circle with Spellbinders original circle die, then stamped my sentiment using JustRite Christmas Inner Thoughts.

The wreath was cut with a Cottage Cutz Whimsical Holiday Wreath die. You should take a peek at this die, as not only does it come with the separate bow and flower dies I have used, but there is a gingerbread, bell, gift box, dove, deer, ornament and another flower to choose from.  These would also be great dies for gift tags.

The wreath itself was cut from an embossed metallic paper I had and a piece of craft foam underneath to give it a bit of depth.

The red flowers and bow were cut using Stardream Jupiter Metallic paper.  To the bow and flower centers, I added Silver Rhinestones.

Trim The Tree

Hello, Diane with you today. This week our challenge is all about ornaments.  There are so many beautiful ornament dies to choose from.  Trust me, I know as I own several and what a hard choice to decide which one I wanted to use.

I ended up choosing this beautiful and intricate Memory Box Corby Ornament.  It was cut from a coordinations green glitter paper.  I cut it a second time using red for the cardinal.

This ornament die has a separate back you can purchase
if interested, Memory Box Drop Ornament.  It fits perfectly for the back layer.  I used Pearlized Esse White Metallic paper for the ornament backing.

The ornament was attached to an Impression Obsession Pine Branch.  I added a Snow Marker to the branch.
As you can see, I got a little carried away with the snow!

The snowflake paper behind the ornament was cut using a die from Sue Wilson Greek Island Collection Kefalonia.
I know it is difficult to see in the photo, but this was then embossed with Quilt Blocks by Darice.

I added an embossed under panel on red card stock
and a pretty red bow to finish it off.

Thank you for visiting with me today!
