This card was made with foil cut out accents. The paper is the Heartwarming Hugs Designer Series Paper. I embossed the steam swirls in the corners on the front and the stamp set is Press On. The card stock base is the standard 8.5 x 5.5 scored at 4.25.
This was really fun to make. I had a little difficulty with it when I was folding it up. I had to cut the front flap so it was fold correctly. Its all one sheet. When its all folded up it is 3in x 3in. The paper is from Heartwarming Hugs Designer Series Paper and the stamp on the top is from Warm Hugs stamp set. The inside piece is Forever Greenery Designer Series Paper.
Again I was using the new sets that I got. Don't Stop Believin' stamp set has an awesome looking Santa and the cutest elf. The card is 4.25 x 5.5. I used the Trimming the Town DSP for the background. Its a simple card and I used Stampin' Up blends. Daffodil Delight, Old Olive, Poppy Parade, Seaside Spray. It's a simple fast card that would be easy to duplicate for many Christmas Cards.
This is my alternate card for the Paper Pumpkin of September. I also used the clear embossing technique for the leaves on the front. The card is 4.25 in by 4,25 in. The front layer is 4 in by 4 in. The green square under the pumpkin is 2 in by 2 in. I've used the colors from the neutrals card stock and very vanilla.
After finally getting my desk in the bedroom for my crafting I started making some stuff. This was my first attempt with embossing. I embossed the word "Cocktails" and the lines on the inside. As you can tell I have sprinkles of the powder around it. The key to keeping that off of your paper is to FLICK the back of the piece of paper with your fingers. A really good flick. The heat gun does curl the paper a bit as you heat it but it doesn't effect it too much. This was my breakout card with the new things that I got recently.
