Beautiful Poinsettias....

 This card was inspired by one made by Carol Payne.  I thought it was a beautiful way to showcase the poinsettias made with the Festive Flower punch.  In my October 12 blog post, you can watch a video on how to assemble this flower.  Super quick and easy.  I have seen some done with quite a few more petals to the flower so have fun building these.

Embellished Ornaments & a Whole Lot of Sparkle!

 

Here is a card that we made recently that has a ton of sparkle!  Since there is not a solid die for the round ornament, I used the 2" circle punch and it is just a bit larger than the die so it gives it an edge which I really like.  For assistance in cutting out the ornaments, see my video on the Precision Base Plate but remember to use the Magnetic Platform for the solid ornament dies.  Also, another video shows how to make the sentiment wave on the banner so check that one out too if you haven't already seen it.

 

To get the sentiments straight and the right distance apart in a class setting, I placed both on the same large block and class attendees inked up the top one with Mossy Meadow and the bottom with Real Red.

The Christmas Cards Start Now!.....

I bet you are starting to think about your Christmas cards this year or perhaps you have even begun making them.  Over the next several weeks, I will share with you several Christmas cards that I have made this year.  I hope that they inspire you!  This card was made using the Project Life Hello December 2015 stamp set.  If you were thinking that this set is limited to Project Life scrapbooking - think again.  I love this set for cards too!

I have put together a quick video to show you how to get your sentiment to wave so it fits within the banner.  In this case, the "season's greetings" comes from the Happy Scenes set.
