Stamp With Linda Walsh

 
 
Hi,

Well, I'm still trying to do one Christmas card a week.  This is for weeks 3 and 4, so now I'm just behind one so far for February.  I'm using Sunday as my guide for when a card is due.  I now need to do one for the 4th of February :)

These two cards are done using the sponging technique but just in a different orientation.  Both cards use the Lovely as a Tree set, a retired Branch Out set (my all time favorite set so far), and the sentiment is from the Word Play and Four the Holidays stamp sets.

For the inks I sponged on Pool Party, Island Indigo, and Wisteria Wonder, all the new in colors.  I used Post-its to mask off the edges of the scene and the moon in the scene.  View the photos below for more detail.

Thanks for visiting with me today :)

Happy Holidays everyone.  Just thought I would share the card I made my husband.  Unfortunately for him he was born on Christmas day.  I found the word "birthmas" in the urban dictionary which is defined as "The birthday of a person that happens to coincide with December twenty-fifth, or Christmas day."  I used Sketch 260 from Splitcoast to create this card.

I also used two different stamp sets to make up the word "birthmas."  I used the Sincere Salutations set and colored in the "Birth" part of the stamp "Birthday Wishes," and for the Four the Holidays" set I colored in "mas" from the stamp that said "Merry Christmas."   That was done in Handsome Hunter.

Card Recipe:

Stamp Sets:  Fundamental Phrases (114968) for the word "Happy"
                     Sincere Salutations (115068) for the word "Birthmas"
                     Four the Holidays - Holiday Mini Catalog for the word "Birthmas"
                     Lovely as a Tree (115026) for the tree

Paper:  Handsome Hunter (105122)
             Real Red (102482)
             Certainly Celery (105125)
Accessories:  Stamp-a-ma-jig (101049)  Definitely needed this for lining up the "Birthmas" word.

I'm so excited.   This is my first Stampin' Up! regional seminar.  I can't wait.  I'll have to report back here on Saturday and tell you all about it.  We're doing a swap that day, too.  I'll post some of the amazing work others will make on Saturday.  Here's what I'm going to swap with others.  You've probably seen this on my site already, but I thought it would be a good one to swap, too.

Thanks for stopping by.  Happy Stamping.

This will be one of our cards that we'll be making in the stamp-a-stack class.  Check out my Classes tab above for details.  I poked holes along the edge of the tree and weaved through the holes the silver elastic cord.  I then used the platinum shimmer paint for the star and the "Happy Holidays."  I popped the star, too.
