STAMPlorations Christmas in the Air Kit #2 using "Greetings of the Season" stamp set

designed by Dee for my 1st project.

I absolutely LOVE Dee's "Greetings of the Season" stamp set,  which is part of the CITA Kit #2.

Besides the gorgeous ornament stamp there are three other images 

plus five wonderful Christmas sentiments:-) 

 I watercolored the ornament, stars and holly with Zigs.

Stamped the sentiment using my Misti.

Added rhinestone embellishments and attached card front to SU Real Red CS, 

which I attached to SU 100# CS card base and Done!

I loved the results and hope you are inspired:-)

*******************

My 2nd project.. CUTplorations Stitched Tags Nesting Dies used to die cut tags

and add Ephemera Noel Tiles!

I die cut the tags out of The Essential Craft Paper "Dusk" by Craft Consortium.

Die cut a SU Basic White Layer to add to the back of the tags.

Stamped the Greetings of the Season sentiments.

Popped up the Noel Tiles with craft foam added the rhinestones.

Then added the ribbons from my stash and Done!

I love the results and might end up adding the pretty tags to a card base:-)

I hope you enjoyed my projects and also Deepti's. 

Christmas will be here before we know it.....Happy Holidays, dear friends.

Love and Hugs,

  Christmas is only 3 months away...oh my!

The CITA Kits are a fun creative way to make Quick projects or more detailed 

enhanced projects using the kit products:-)

My 1st project using Deepti's Greetings of the Season stamp set 

from the CITA Kit #2

I Love Deepti's beautiful ornament image in her Greetings of the Season stamp set.

I stamped the image with Versamagic and heat embossed with 

Ranger Princess Gold Embossing Powder.

Next the joy of watercoloring the image with Gansai Tambi Gem colors,

which have a beautiful shine that you can see in the photo:-)

Then I stamped and fussy cut the ornament image for a mask.

Covered the ornament and splattered the background with the Gem watercolors.

Next die cut the image using CUTplorations Crazy Double Running Stitch 

Rectangle Nesting Dies.  Used MISTI to stamp the sentiment from the set.

I also Love ALL the wonderful Christmas sentiments in the set

and the font!  I die cut the SU foil cardstock with the largest Nesting Die.

Attached the layers to 100# white cardstock and Done!

I was so pleased with the results and hope you like my card too😀

My next two cards  are Quick Clean and Simple Designs!

Popped up the Ehemera Noel Tiles Happy New Year sentiment with craft foam.

Attached to background,  which I attached to 100# cardstock and Done!

My 2nd QCAS Christmas card using Noel Tiles:-)

I chose an Alcohol Pearls inks on Yupo paper from my stash for the pretty background,

which matched the Holly Jolly Ephemera Noel Tile perfectly😀

Loved how both QCAS cards turned out.

This is our Last Stencil Challenge...Until September when we will be back after our Summer break!

We would love to have you join the fun.  Anything Goes as long as you use one or more stencils!

Here is my card using

ARTplorations by Helen G Rubber Bands Stencil.

Craft Supplies Clear Stickers Happy Happy.

STAMPlorations Leafy by Dee's Artsy Impressions.

I began by sponging the SU Basic White 100# cardstock with Distress Oxide Inks using i-Crafter i-Brushes.  I used Crack Pistachio, Peacock Feathers, Salty Ocean and Squeezed Lemonade.

Then attached with 3M masking tape the ARTplorations Helen G's Rubber Bands Stencil to the sponged cardstock.  Then blended DOX Cracked Pistachio and Peacock Feathers thru the stencil.

Removed Stencil.  Placed sponged card front in Misti and stamped the leaves from the Leafy  stamp set

with Versafine black ink and heat embossed with SU Clear Embossing Powder.

Trimmed card front and added the Happy Happy Clear Sticker sentiment over 100# white cardstock and trimmed and attached to Black Basic cardstock for a frame.  Added a black narrow border for fun and attached card front to SU 100# card base and Done!

Enjoy and hope you join us for our last Stencil Challenge until September.

Wishing you a safe and wonderful Summer.

STAMPlorations Day 4 Extra Day Dee's Life is Sweeter

STAMPlorations Day 4 Extra Day Blog Hop.  I am  sharing a second card featuring Dee's Designs New Release "Life is Sweeter" stamp set😊

I am loving Dee's new set.

                                   Life is Sweeter,  when shared with friends.

L

I die cut Strathmore Mixed Media paper with CUTplorations Stitched Tags Nesting Dies.  Then the fun began...Using MISTI I stamped the apple with Versamark and heat embossed with Ranger Distress Embossing Glaze mixing Fossilized Amber and Cracked Pistachio embossing powder for a pretty apple green shade.

Stamped the leaves and sentiment with Archival Jet Black ink.  Then stamped the sweet tiny blossoms with Versamark and heat embossed with Fossilized Amber EB Glaze.  I used a .04mm art pen to trace the stitching on both tags.

Attached both tags together with ribbon and twine and added mini dimensionals behind the small tag and craft white foam behind the larger tag to make the tags pop. Attached to SU Whisper White 100# card base and Done!

 A very different style from my Day 2 card that shows the versatility of this new Life is Sweeter set by our very talented STAMPlorations Dee's Artsy Impressions Designer.  We would love to have you comment on all our STAMPGirls New Release projects.
