I’m Dreaming of a White…

… martini? 😀  Today’s Random Act of Cardness prompt on the Scrap ‘n Stamp challenge page is WHITE! Here’s my take on a white card:

 

 

I don’t know about you, but some days when the holiday crunch is getting to me, this might just about sum up how I feel. 😀  As a festive card, I wanted lots of sparkle, so I started off with a Picket Fence martini stencil and some moonstone Nuvo glimmer paste. While that dried, I cut the My Favorite Things martini glass from some white glitter cardstock as well as two more from regular cardstock so I could layer them together. I also added a couple of layers to the MFT sassy sentiment, which I embossed with some sparkle embossing powder. I think we all know how tricky shine is to photograph, but this close-up at least gives a hint:

 

 

If you’re still working on holiday cards, I hope you’ll consider making a white card of your own, and adding it to the challenge page for a chance to win some Scrap ‘n Stamp spending money! Thanks for checking in today.

Let It Snow?

And just like that, it’s Friday again! Hope everyone is doing well, especially if you’ve been affected by the horrible weather events in BC.

I don’t know about you, but I’m just as happy when snow stays away for as long as possible. 😉  But that doesn’t mean I can’t put a little of the white stuff on a card for today’s Random Acts of Cardness challenge prompt, SNOW!

 

 

It’s a bonus when I can manage to make a cute card with just a little bit of sass! That penguin seems made for pitching snowballs, and I suppose it’s one way to get his little reindeer to pull the sled. The background is made with mermaid lagoon distress oxide ink blended on white cardstock, and then splattered with water. A few of my splats are larger than ideal, but oh well. 😀  The snow is made using a fun new product, snowfall distress grit-paste! It’s added to a separate piece of watercolour paper so it wouldn’t pick up any of the oxide colour. My critters, sled and snowballs are all from Lawn Fawn’s Toboggan Together, and the sentiment from Tiny Tag Sayings. The panel and sentiment dies are older My Favorite Things dies from my stash.

 

 

I hope my little snowy scene has inspired you to play along on the Scrap ‘n Stamp Random Acts of Cardness Facebook group! And stay tuned this weekend for the winner announcement for the Let It Snow Inspiration Hop!

Jingle all the Way

Kia here with you today to share this fun fold card for the Random Act of Cardness day 20, which is Surprise Fold. This fold is called Triple Easel Panel, and was great fun to do.

Most years My Favorite Things brings back Birdie Brown’s set Jingle all the Way, which is what I decided to use for this card. I picked a few of the images to include on my card, with my favourite Santa image. I also included the Deer, and the Christmas Tree along with presents. The little green circles you can see are the stops for the fold, which are attached to the inside of the card using foam squares. When adding the images in place I arranged it so the deer’s hoof and Santa’s foot and the tree rested on or near the circle.

I coloured the images using Copic markers. The sentiments were stamped using VersaFine Clair ink in Tulip Red. The designer paper came from my stash. For the Star on the Tree and Santa’s belt buckle, along with a couple of the bows on the presents I used Jelly Roll pen in Gold,

On Santa’s hat I added glitter gloss where the fur would be.

This is the card with the folds down and ready to be mailed in an A2 envelope. When making this card that is something to keep in mind, you do not want anything hanging over the edges of the card. Also, make note the card is not your standard size, it is 5.25 h x 4.25 w., so a quarter of an inch shorter than normal.

I hope you have enjoyed today’s card and thank you for visiting.
