Kylie's Top 10 International Blog Highlights Winners Hop December 2021

                                                                    

At the beginning of almost every month I participate in Kylie's International Blog Highlights. I ask for votes so that I earn my way to this hop. A HUGE THANK YOU to all of you who voted for my card. You can see that card HERE. YOUR votes bumped me into the top 10 so that I could participate in this hop today. 

Thanks Friends! This card is for YOU!

I did 2 techniques on this card - Negative Image Masking and Ink Blending. I just love the way it turned out! I started by die cutting a butterfly from the Brilliant Wings dies and placed that over a piece of 3¾ x 5 Basic White CS. I taped the mask down so it wouldn't move while I did my ink blending. I started with Daffodil Delight on the bottom, Mango Melody in the middle and Flirty Flamingo on the top. Then I used my Stamparatus to stamp the flowers from Forever Blossoms. I wanted to make sure I could go over them a few times if needed since the mask was still on. 

The gold shimmer ribbon and the Brushed Brass Butterflies (from the upcoming Jan-June Mini Catalog) add an extra touch of elegance to the card, imho. 

I added a tiny butterfly inside too :) A fun and gorgeous technique! I hope you enjoyed today's card share. 

Thanks again for voting for my card! Voting opens on January 3rd, 2022 for the next one.

How to make 20 Christmas Cards Quickly

 Hello Friends! 

I wanted to share how easy it is to make multiple Christmas cards with the awesome Gingerbread & Peppermint Memories and More Cards & Envelopes. You get 20 pre-printed card bases and envelopes in a package. They are awesome and they're a great finished card size - 4¼ x 6¼

I grabbed a spool of the Real Red Mini Ruffled Ribbon, some DSP and the Frosted Gingerbread bundle and went to work. I didn't have any plan, I just started cutting pieces and adhering them to card fronts. It was really fun to just come up with ideas as I went. What do ya think?

And just look at those adorable envelopes!

I used the Lovely Labels Pick A Punch to make the sentiments. I heat embossed Happy Holidays from the Frosted Gingerbread stamp set in white embossing powder. 

And that was it. So. Much. Fun!

Don't miss out on these. When they're gone, they're gone. 

HAPPY STAMPING!
