Happy Birthday Sister!!!
Today is my sister and my father's birthday. I created a card for my sister using PaperTrey Ink's "A Cup of Cheer" stamp set. I think my sister will be shocked because I got a card out to her on time!! Wish the same could be said of my Dad!!
This is a TOTAL CASE of one of Dawn McVey's cards for this set. I did not use the Jade ink, though but used Hero Art's Green Hills ink for the teapot and cup. For some reason, my Jadeite ink just does not want to work. I inked the background with Simon Says Stamp Duckling yellow ink. Such a simple but effective card!!
I thank you for stopping by!!
Supplies:
Paper-White and Jadeite-PaperTrey Ink
Stamps- "A Cup of Cheer" PaperTrey Ink
Ink-SSS Duckling, Hero Art's Green Hills, Memento Black Ink, SSS Green Leaf
Other-Fun Foam, Adhesive Foam, Big Shot, Basic Grey gem

SJ Card Kit Club
Happy Tuesday!! Today I am sharing the cards I created with the SJ Card Kit Club. It was Kathleen's turn and she sent us a HUGE kit of Christmas themed supplies. I was the weak link to this kit as I only created five cards. It was a combination of being too tired after a long day at work and not having any mojo. Hate that!!
On my first card, I created a little hill for the bear to stand on. The bear was part of the kit, as was the patterned paper. I enhanced the die cut with a little black enamel to make the eyes and the nose. The sentiment is from Paper Trey Ink's "Cup of Cheer" stamp set.
My second card is the one I like the least. I had to put the trim at the top as I made a mistake adhering the paper. I also used Festive Berry Distress Ink on the embossed sentiment and don't love the look.
There is a serious mistake on this card. The left bird was not supposed to have a black eye!! I first used a black liquid enamel to attempt to make the eyes but did not like it. I was able to glue the other eyes on with no issue but the black seeped out a bit. I was so mad as this was the last thing I did for this card!! The sentiment and the stamped notes are from Paperie Ink's "Christmas Carolers" stamp set.
Really simple card. I die cut the embossed background that was in the kit and adhered it to a white card base. I then layered a white hill and used the die cuts that were in the kit. I used liquid black embossing enamel for the snowman's eyes and Nuvo Red Berry for the buttons.
This card was super simple to created. I utilized patterned paper that was included in the kit on the background, as well as the die cut snowman, present and hat. I enhanced the snowman by using liquid black enamel for the snowman's eyes and mouth, Diamond Stickles for the dots on the present and blue gems for buttons.

From Our Family To Yours-Paperie Ink Christmas Carolers
Happy Monday!! My blog has been very slow as of late. Work has been getting in the way of my creating. I have had to take a nap when I get home before I do all the running around with Charlotte too. I will be happy to feel normal again but it sure is taking a long time.
Today I am sharing a card I created for Paperie Ink using the Christmas Carolers stamp and die set. This set is so darn cute!
I started by stamping the birds, their "Christmas" accessories, the nest and the eggs on white card stock and die cut the pieces out. I then colored the images in using Copic markers.
Next I stamped the branch and the log onto kraft card stock. I then ran the card stock through a wood grain embossing folder to give the wood pieces some texture. I cut them out using the matching dies. Using Walnut Stain Distress Ink, I sponged over the wood pieces to give them a bit of dimension.
I assembled all the pieces over a snowy background scene that I had adhered to a red card base. I added clear Wink of Stella to the birds hat and the bow, and added snow to the nest, branch and log. I sprinkled some fine, clear glitter over the snow before it dried to give it some sparkle.
The last step was to stamp the sentiment in black at the bottom of the card.
I think this card came out so adorable. I cannot wait to send it out!!
Thank you for stopping by. Have a great day!!

Flyin' High with Paperie Ink
Happy Monday everyone!! I am so excited to announce that I am a member of the Paperie Ink Design team. The stamp sets and matching dies are adorable and fabulous to work with.
Today I want to share with you a card I created with the Flyin High set. I did a TON of masking on this card and was originally going to make it a one layer wonder but plans changed as the card went a long.
I started by stamping the plane, masking it off, and then stamping the bunny on a white card base. Isn't he cute with his little flying ears? I stamped and fussy cut the clouds onto full stick post it notes and randomly arranged them onto the white background.
I used three different Distress Inks-Tumbled Glass, Broken China and Mermaid Blue-for the inked background. I wanted it to be a vivid blue rather then a light blue.
I then took the masks off and colored in the stamped images with Copic markers. I cut the panel out with a die and layered it over an orange piece of patterned paper that I had adhered onto a white card base.
I added some Liquid Snow to the bunny's belly for a faux-fur effect and some pink Stickles for the nose. I then coated the plane with some clear Wink of Stella. I am in love with how this came out!!
