Real Shepherd

I do like a clean and simple card, especially when I have to make several, or at least until my supplies are depleted. Thoughts? 

Stamps:

   Shepherd's Care

   Real Red A-2

   Basic White 5-3/8 x 4-1/8, 5 x 3, 5-1/4 x 4 (Inside)

   Adhesive

First, I adhered the Season of Elegance DSP panel to a Basic White matte.

I then tied the Real Red Woven Satin Ribbon around the panel, vertically on the left side, as shown above.

Next, I adhered the panel onto the Real Red card front.

I then stamped the images on the 5 x 3 Basic White panel, using Crumb Cake ink.

Next, I stamped the sentiment across the image, using Real Red ink.

I then die cut the image, using the Nested Essentials dies.

Next, I attached the panel onto the right side of the card front, using dimensionals. 

Lastly, I added a Neutrals Adhesive-Backed Sequin to the center of the star and adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.

Flighty Thoughts

I used markers to color the bird, but I think I will try watercolor pencils with a blender pen next. Thoughts?

First, I adhered the Nests of Winter DSP panel onto a Basic Black matte and then onto the Crumb Cake card front.

I then stamped, die cut, and colored the bird image, using the Winterly Tree Tops dies and my markers: Real Red for the berries, Crumb Cake on the tree limb, Soft Suede for the Bird's beak and legs, Coastal Cabana, Pumpkin Pie, and Daffodil Delight were all used to color the bird's body.

Next, I die cut the Crumb Cake square and the Simply Marbleous DSP square, using the Spotlight on Nature Dies. I adhered the Simply Marbleous DSP circle onto the Crumb Cake Circle and adhered these onto the upper part of the card front.

Next, I die cut the two Garden Green pieces, using the Winterly Tree Tops dies. I adhered these two pieces onto the back of the bird, using a few glue dots. 

I then added a few dimensionals onto the back of the bird and attached it to the center of the circle die cuts.

Next, I stamped and punched the sentiment, using the Washi Label Punch. I attached it to the card front, using dimensionals.

Lastly, I added a few Earth Tones Shimmer Gems and adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.

Golden Pine

I created a shadow effect, using Basic Black cardstock, but you can barely see it. What do you think? 

Stamps:

   Peaceful Season

Paper:

   Cherry Cobbler A-2

   Basic Black 5-3/8 x 4-1/8, 2 x 3-3/4 

   Season of Elegance DSP 5-1/4 x 4

   Gold Foil 2 x 3-3/4

   Basic White 5-1/4 x 4 (2), 1-5/8" Sq. 

Ink:

   Tuxedo Black Memento

Technique:

   Die Cutting

   Shadow Effect

Accessories:

   Peaceful Evergreens Dies

   Peaceful Season Dies

   Gold Textured Adhesive-Backed Dots

   Cherry Cobbler & Gold Satin Ribbon - 6"

   Glue Dots

   Dimensionals

   Adhesive

First, I die cut the small circles on the top part of the Season of Elegance DSP panel.

I then adhered the panel onto a Basic White panel, making the circles appear like snowfall.

Next, I adhered this panel onto a Basic Black matte and then onto the Cherry Cobbler card front.

I then die cut three trees from the Peaceful Evergreens dies: two in Basic Black and one in Gold Foil.

I then adhered the two Basic Black trees together. This is the shadow of the tree. 

Next, I adhered the gold foil tree on top and slightly off to the right of the Basic Black trees. I then adhered these onto the left side of the card front. I used gold foil to keep it in step with the gold elegance of the DSP, but you can make it stand out more if you use a green color.

I then stamped and die cut the sentiment, using the Peaceful Season dies.

Next, I added a bit of Cherry Cobbler & Gold Satin ribbon to the back of the sentiment, using a few glue dots. I then attached it to the card front with dimensionals.

Lastly, I added a few Gold Textured Adhesive-Backed dots to the card front and adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.

Christmas Forest

This is a card that can easily be duplicated. The background designer series paper can also be substituted with any Christmas background, just use what you have on hand. Thoughts? 

Stamps:

   Evergreen Elegance

Paper:

   Cherry Cobbler A-2

   Evening Evergreen 5-3/8 x 4-1/8, 4-5/8 x 3-3/8

   Tidings of Christmas DSP 5-1/4 x 4

   Basic White 4-1/2 x 3-1/4, 5-1/4 x 4 (Inside)

Ink:

   Evening Evergreen

   Cherry Cobbler

Technique:

   Stamp-Off

Accessories:

   Red Rhinestone Basic Jewels

   Dimensionals

   Adhesive

First, I stamped the sentiment, using Cherry Cobbler on the top right of the smaller Basic White panel.

I then stamped the pine trees, using Evening Evergreen and a stamp-off technique. This simply means that I stamped twice before re-inking my stamp. I started with the left side of the panel. I inked the stamp and stamped on the left and then to the right of the same image. I then inked my stamped and repeated the steps. I brought the stamp down a bit each time until the panel was filled.

Next, I adhered the panel onto an Evening Evergreen matte.

I then adhered the Tidings of Christmas DSP onto an Evening Evergreen matte and then onto the Cherry Cobbler card front.

Next, I added the stamped panel, using dimensionals.

Lastly, I added a few red rhinestone jewels and adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.
