HJ Embossing with Ribbon

This week’s challenge at Holly Jolly is hosted by me and I have chosen the theme challenge to be

Embossing with Ribbon.

 

The embossing can be dry embossing or heat set embossing and ribbon well we all have ribbon that we find in our stash.

 

So I would love to see you join us and get a start on your Christmas cards too!

 

For my card I have heat embossed my Christmas Tree image with clear embossing powder.  I first stamped in Island Indigo Ink and then quickly added the clear embossing powder.

 

You can see the how the image is darker with the embossing powder because the sentiment Season’s Greeting is just stamped in the Island Indigo ink.

 

The layout for my card was inspired by an older sketch at Sketchbook Saturday.  Love the Clean and Simple look of the design.

 

Here is my card:

 

 

Supplies:

Stamp set: Snow Swirled

Card: Island Indigo, Crumb Cake, Very Vanilla
Ink: Island Indigo

Accessories:  Scallop Edge Border, Island Indigo Ribbon, Vanilla Ribbon (Non-SU), Basic Rhinestones, Dimensionals, SNAIL Adhesive

 

I am hooked on the Island Indigo at the moment so my card is very non-traditional colours.

 

I would like to add my card to the following challenges:

Inkspirational Photo Challenge

Hi everyone,

 

Well we have a wonderful new Photo Challenge over at Inkspirational.

 

I have gone very pink in my card and created the background on the Very Vanilla Cardstock by adding marker colours to a clear block with some water.  I haven’t used my markers for a while so it was good to try a few different colours to see what created the best background.

 

It took a few goes to get the right background but I like the one I eventually settled on.

 

The image is from the Serene Silhouettes stamp set and has been stamped in Chocolate Chip ink.

The lovely ribbon is the Two-Tone Ribbon Pink Pirouette/ Rose Red.

 

Here is my card

 

 

 

 

Supplies:

Stamp set: Serene Silhouettes

Card: Raspberry Ripple, Very Vanilla
Ink: Chocolate Chip

Accessories:  Framed Tulips Embossing Folder, Two Tone Ribbon, Regal Rose, Primrose Petals, Raspberry Ripple, Dimensionals, SNAIL Adhesive

CCC - Not Square

Ok it is Wednesday and time to share the new challenge details over at Crafty Creations.

 

This week we would like to see anything but squares! 

 

I have decided to create a box, rectangular no square and I created this box using the Scallop Envelope Die, which is just so versatile!

 

Anyway I found this box at Paulies Papier and also pinned it on Pinterest here is the link.

 

I have added my little spin on the box and added some of the Tea for Two DSP to the sides and used the Scallop Circle Punch.

 

Here is a side view of the box

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and here is front view

I suppose you could add some treats to the box or I am thinking some smalls cards?

 

I really like to paper and at this stage did not add any sentiments but maybe later I may add a tag with a small message.

 

I would like to add my little project to the following challenges:

Hi everyone,

 

Back to normal after the Easter break which was lovely and sharing a new challenge over at Holly Jolly this week.

 

This week we would love you to add some Christmas Music to your project.

 

I do not have any Christmas music stamps so I went and had a look on line and found a music sheet image for “Hark The Herald Angels Sing”.  Unfortunately I cannot remember the exact address but the image is perfect for the challenge.

 

I tried to get that sort vintage look with some Soft Suede ink and dauber.  The baby image is a retired stamp set called First Christmas.

 

I have added a button, some bling, thread, lace and a ribbon also.  I felt I needed something more so I found some white lace I have had for ages and daubered Soft Suede ink to change the colour.

 

Here is my card:

 

 

Supplies:

Stamp set: First Christmas

Card: Soft Suede, Very Vanilla, Pretty in Pink
Ink: Crumb Cake, Soft Suede
