This week, Krafty Girl Rosie is your hostess and her challenge theme for you is: 

EMBOSSING!

Embossing is one of my favorite techniques and yet

one that I often forget to do!  When I learned how

to emboss with stencils, it created a whole 

new love of embossing for me! 

My card today features dry embossing with 

the Holly stencil and heat embossing for the berries

of the holly leaves and sentiment. 

After running the stencil through my Big Shot

die cut machine to get this awesome raised image, 

I put the stencil back on the panel and used the 

NEW Original Olive ink to brush over the

top of it.  It creates kind of a 3D effect.  

I masked off the little berries while I was inking

the leaves and then used VersaMark clear

embossing ink through the stencil and added

some glittery red embossing powder.  

 I love how it has kind of a vintage feel

with a bit of bling!

Here's a closer look at the embossing:

 I hope that I've inspired you to join our challenge 

this week and share your own creation 

using the theme of embossing.

CAS Christmas Card

Hello!  Thanks for visiting me today.

Last weekend was World Card Making Day.

 I colored the beautiful and sweet image on

my card below that day, but didn't get the 

card finished until Wednesday.  

I very seldom make CAS or one layer cards, but

felt a calling on this one to give it a go.  The main image 

is from Santa Paws and the sentiment is from 

Holiday Wishes (both by Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps).  

  

A big bold sentiment and a colored main image = viola!

I really love how it turned out.  Hope you do too.

I'm entering this card in the following challenges:

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenges - CHRISTMAS (10/9/19)

Winter Wonderland Challenge - Merry and Bright

Addicted to Stamps and More! Challenge #362 "Make Your Mark"

Try it on Tuesday - Animal Magic

I also sent this in to Scrapbook and Cards Today for the WCMD 

 4:00 pm Challenge  - CAS.  

Thanks for sharing with me today! Have a lovely weekend. D 

My Favorite Things - World Card Making Challenges - 4 for 4!

Hello again friends!  

Did you get some good crafty card making time 

in yesterday for World Card Making Day?  

I was able to make three of my DT cards for 

an upcoming October release (which will be revealed

next week) and I also made four - yes FOUR - cards

so I could play along with the WCMChallenges at

MY FAVORITE THINGS.  I'm pretty proud of

myself because I haven't made that many cards in

one day in a very long time :o)! So much fun!

All my cards are much more CAS and simple than

I usually do but I was pressed for time and wanted to play 

along.  I surprised myself and really like how they turned out!

Challenge #1 was to use the colors of the rainbow

Here's my first card for the 9 am challenge ROYGBIV

(Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Violet - I don't know what 

the I stands for :o)) using the fun mixing bowls from 

Kitschy Kitchen and a sentiment from You Bake Me Happy.

My background was colored with Distress ink oxide.

I thought about splattering it but decided I liked it clean.

The second challenge of the day was Die-namics Designs

to use 100% die cuts on the card.  Here's my card using 

Roses in Bloom.  

The third challenge of the day was By the Numbers 

and incorporate a # on your card.  

I used the sweet Baby Onesie die to make a 1st birthday card

And the fourth challenge of the day was to MAKE and MAIL

a card to someone. This one will be going to a friend that

I haven't had the pleasure of seeing for awhile.  We need to

"dish" and catch up on lots!  I had stamped a bunch of the little

bowls while I was deciding on my rainbow theme so decided to 

use them on this last card too.  

Stamps used are from Kitschy Kitchen, and You Bake Me Happy.

Thanks for visiting me today.  I apologize for the 

poor quality photos.  I was pretty late when I took the

pictures of the cards and didn't have time to redo them this

morning before I'm off to my volunteer clean up day

for the Lions Club.  Have a fantastic day peeps!  

Hugs! D
