Christmas in July

 Christmas in July linky party is going on over at Build your stash holiday cardmakers group

My first link up:

This is an easy card by stenciling the Joyous cup stencil from A Colorful Life Designs. ♥️I'm on their DT and have an order savings code for you if you need one: VanessaFan10 ♥️ onto patterend paper. I distressed the bottom edge and attached to black card base.  I stamped Merry Christmas (lawn fawn), added a black diecut heart onto the cup and finished it off with some little candies (twiddlers nook). 

New release day

 New fun variety of cardmaking products over at Miss Ink Stamps

Today I'm sharing a card using the new Magnolia die set. Beautiful! 

For this card, I created the background on watercolor paper and inksmooshing with oxide inks. Then I used Tim Holtz crackling clear glaze with the Miss Ink Stamps stencil called Mouse Flower. 

The beautiful intricate frame die comes with the magnolia set. Cut in gold. I inksmooshed the middle piece and lightly stenciled on the mouse flower and glued it back in.  Oh happy day dies from oh happy day frame die set.

I die cut the flower pieces and inked with oxide inks. Assembled the card.

Hello! I'm not whipping out the Christmas cards like I did last year, but I'm definitely trying to get at least one made each month for the Caffeinted Christmas Card Challenge blog. This month is Masculine.

The sponsor this month is Rubbernecker Stamps. The CCCC designers inspired me to use one of my Caffeinted owls from Rubbernecker Stamps, too. I have a few, but went with this guy. His name is Preston.

Isn't he cute!? I masked him off and ink blended the background and stenciled on snowflakes (Jaded Blossom Stamps). Merry Christmas die os TSOL and warm wishes is from clearly besotted coffee set I have. Store bought santa hat, and viola! Masculine caffeinated Christmas card. 😊
