Christmas Bells

Hi Everyone,

Barbara here and it's time for a Sunday Inspiration. It's been so hot here in the midwest I thought I'd make a Christmas card to cool off. Well, I didn't get any cooler but I decided this is probably going to be my Christmas card for the upcoming season.

I love working with Petallics (a shimmery card stock) and silver CS , however they are tough to photograph.so,I apologize for the glare, I took so many pic's and never did get rid of the glare.

This card is a trifold design and the card stock is a beautiful shimmery blue. I love this card design and I added a belly band to add elegance to the card. I used punch # 923 on the belly band and it ties together with the inside.

Here is the back of the card showing the belly band punched out all the way around. I actually layered the belly band. I used a silver band with a slightly smaller punched shimmery band on top.

 Here is the inside. I decided to layer the sentiment. I used the star template to give me the 8 sided doily look. The circle cutter cuts out the sentiment. I centered the sentiment on top of the doily. Again I used punch 923 with inset C to achieve the corners you see here on the silver CS.

 

 

 

 

 

 

That is it for today. Stay cool and I will be back in a few weeks.  Have a great week.

Currently it sounds like Drupal is the best blogging platform available right now. (from what I've read) Is that what you are using on your blog?

Wow, that punch on the band was exactly the perfect choice - it so matches the feeling you created.

Fabulous Friday! Just gearing up for the weekend around here...starting with a clean up of my scraproom! You know you have to do it when you get to the point that you have a 12 inch square to create in and NOTHING more..not even floor space! hee hee!! I did find the room to create this yesterday... This sweet little door hanger was made using the star template for the doily, the circle cutter for the glittered circle in the center of the doily, then the butterfly die to cut the transparency...oh, and the 903 4 in 1 punch....my girls have all...

a little Sunshine... Hi everyone! Its Wendy and I'm back to share a project using scraps to create a cute sun. 1. Using the Kreaxions Plastic Stencil mark out the lines and cut with the Circle Cutter at the 12 cm mark. 2. Using Kreaxions punch 911 use the pencil lines from the stencil as a guide. No need to use one of the paper guides with this punch because you're going to use the center of the heart as a guide to line the punch up perfectly with the line. Be sure to punch at every other line. 3. Cut a circle...
