My third Feature using STAMPlorations Christmas in the Air Kit #1:-)
More details from Shery regarding the New in September Kit #2 and Kit #3!!!
I have enjoyed every minute of creating with the Awesome CITA Kit #1😀
Monika will be back in August for one more CITA Feature using Kit #1. Don't miss it!
Hope you enjoy and are inspired by my 6 cards and 3 tags. I will list products at the end of my post.
It is time for Christmas in July creating. Have a safe and creative Summer, my friends.
My 1st card using the fun "Holidays" Stencil from the CITA Kit #1.
I stenciled the trees first using Distress Oxide Inks and i-Crafter's i-Brushes.
Then stenciled the vintage truck on another piece of SU Basic White 100# cardstock.
Next fussy cut the truck and attached under the trees and added the clear stickers 'Merry Everything'.
As an after thought sponged the sky, grass and road to make the images seem connected!
Then added the cute fussy cut "Ephemera" image for a driver, black stick on brads to wheels and a bit more distressing with ink to the truck. I Love this very versatile stencil!
****************
My next 5 cards use the awesome "Christmas ATC's". There are 18 ATC's in the set:-)
Love this cute snowman. I added more snow splatters with a Posca acrylic white pen.
Used corner rounder to cut the corners. Thank you STAMPgirl Vicki for the idea.
Added eyelet, ribbon, twine and Clear Stickers "Merry Everything" sentiment and
popped up with craft foam. Then attached ATC to
die cut "Circle All Over Texture Cover Plate" colored cardstock layer, which I attached to
SU Basic White 100# cardstock and Done.
***************
Next card was the same basic design using another "Christmas ATC"!
I added a stamped tree from STAMPlorations Bee's Knee's "Winter Mug" stamp set and stamped the sentiment from "Coffee for All Seasons" using Archival Jet Black Ink.
Next die cut colored cardstock using CUTplorations "Wonky Stitched Grid Texture Cover Plate". Attached to card base.
Popped up ATC with craft foam and attached to cover plate layer and Done!
******************
Three more "Christmas ATC" cards using a different design.
Very simple CAS design. Stamped Bee's Knees "Layered Christmas Lights" using Archival Jet Black ink onto Basic White 100# card base. Attached layered CUTplorations Die Cut "Stitched Tags Nesting Dies". One tag was using SU Real Red Cardstock and the smaller tag was the "Christmas ATC".
Earlier I added more black splatters to the small tag with Posca Black Acrylic Pen.
Added ribbon and popped up tags with craft foam and Done!
***************
Two more cards using "Christmas ATC's" with similar designs.
I stamped the card base with images from Bee's Knees "Layered Mistletoe". Added the popped up with craft foam "Christmas ATC", which I had splattered with Posca White Acrylic pen, cut corners and added eyelit and ribbons and Done!
*******************
Here is my last "Christmas ATC's" card. There were 18 ATC's in the Kit and I still have 4 left after using a few in all my CITA Kit #1 Features:-)
I stamped Bee's Knees "Layered Poinsettias" stamp set and popped up the "Christmas ATC" using craft foam. I had cut the corners, added white acrylic splatters, stamped sentiments from the stamp set, added eyelit and ribbon and Done! I think this is my favorite:-) But loved them all.
****************
One photo of 3 "Christmas ATC" die cut tags!!!
Three tags filled with Christmas joy and Wink of Stella:-)
Die cut the ATC's with Stitched Tags Nesting Dies, added stamped sentiments from the "Christmas Joy Stamp Set", added Wink of Stella, Ribbons and Done!
Thank you for sticking with my long post. I have a great start on my Christmas stash and not a single duplicate card or tag from my 3 CITA Kit #1 Features:-)
Happy "Christmas in July", my creative friends.
Love and Hugs..

ReplyDeleteWonderful group of cards and tags Nancy! LOVE the sweet stenciled scene you've created. The next two cards looks fabulous with the Christmas ATCs made into tags over top of the cool perforated cover plates. LOVE the look of these!!
