Christmas Count Down Week 5 - Merry Little Labels & Colorful Seasons

For this week's Count Down to Christmas I am featuring Colorful Seasons and Merry Little Labels stamp sets.  To create the background I used crumpled tissue paper to apply the Pool Party and Soft Sky ink to the Whisper White card stock. Then I stamped some of the Colorful Seasons snowflakes in Marina Mist. Makes me yearn for cooler weather, we have had a bit of heat wave here in North Texas, predicted to hit 90 on Sunday, 5 November. 

 

Card Measurements:

 Marina Mist Card Base 5 1/2 x 4 1/4

Whisper White Layer 4 1/4 x 3 3/4

Silver Foil Strips x 4 1/4 x 3/4

 

---

Tip:  I consider the Silver Foil paper a very precious consumable.  To conserve my stock of Silver Foil paper I only used strips of 4 1/4 x 3/4 to accent my focal point.  Saving paper for other projects.

Christmas Count Down Week 4 - Be Merry DSP and Labels to Love

This week for my Count Down to Christmas I am using (again) two of my favorite products, Be Merry DSP and Labels to Love stamp set to create a simple card for an upcoming swap.

Card Measurements:
Cherry Cobbler  Card Base 5 1/2 x 4 1/4

Garden Green Layer 5 3/8 4 1/8

Be Merry DSP Layer  5 1/4 x 4

Be Merry DSP Accent 1 1/4 x 4

 

💔 Sending prayers to all affected by the fires in California.  Please pray for my card swapping Facebook friend, Tami Hope Ridgway and her family, their neighborhood was lost to the fires.  My heart aches for everyone.

TIP: You are probably wondering how I cut the curves on my DSP.  Well, many years ago when I started scrapbooking I bought a Cutting System from Creative Memories.  It is very old and I still use it on occasion.  It is so handy and I will keep it forever.

I just put my two pieces of DSP together and used the Cutting System Circle as a guide to cut the paper.  Voila, now I have a curve.
