Warm Hearts

Happy New Years

I hope you had the best night. And I pray this year will be better than the last.

I started my card by stamping the Penguin Snowball Blast covering it with a mask then cutting a mast for the mountains. I used Picked Raspberry Distress Ink.

Copics were used to color the rest of the image. On the Igloo I used some white Wink of Stella to tone down the blue. 

The mountains and snow areas I used a clear Spectrum Noir pen.

I really like the new half circle dies that everyone is using. I don't have one, so I put my own twist on this and created my one look. I used a straight stitch die to cut across the bottom then a circle die to cut the rest. 

I stamped the Snowy Days Frosty Nights Greeting in to parts. And cut out with a circle die. The Winter Wonder Words were stamped with Picked Raspberry Distress Ink. To finish it off I added a little bling to the punched snowflakes.

Have a wonderful day,

Janett

Under Sea Friends

Hi everyone,

It has been a stressful week here, my Dad has taken to turn for the worst. I had to hire some help it has just become to much for me to do everything on my own. Your prays would be very much appreciated.

 

For my card I used the Mermaid, Happy Octopus, Four in One Background, 4 in 1 Seashells, they were colored with Copic markers. I colored the edge of the scalloped rectangle with Copic markers. On the white panel I used the Scalloped Border Two. Then I cut a strip of white paper wider than the die cut and covered it with Score Tape and added sequins this was attached with foam tape to the back of the white panel. I used foam tape to attached it to a dark purple layer then a white card.

Have a wonderful day,

Snowflakes and Hearts

Hi all , As I was planing my card for today I was thinking about snowflakes and how lacy and beautiful they are and with Valentines Day being in February there could be snow. So for my card I decided to combine the two.

   

For the front of the card I used a embossing folder then added some pearls to the center of the snowflakes. I stamped the Filigree Heart  and embossed with Recollection Party Pink Then I stamped two of the Small Silhouette Heart they were embossed with the same Party Pink powder.these were fussy cut.

For the inside I stamped the Medium Filigree Snowflake and embossed with Detail White. I die cut a D' lites  Oval  and stamped the Small Valentines Day Greeting and embossed with the Party pink embossing powder.

Just a reminder to join in the Heart to Heart challenge this week, you could win a $10.00 voucher to the DRS design store.

Have a wonderful day,

Filigree Snowflakes

Hi Stampers, my card today uses two of DRS designs new stamps the Warm Thoughts 1 Line Greeting and the Medium Filigree Snowflake.

I use a square die to cut three opening. I stamped the Large Filigree Snowflake going off the page then embossed it with white embossing powder. The Warm thoughts greeting was stamped and embossed with clear embossing powder. Thin I used blue ink to sponge around the snowflake. On another piece of paper I embossed with white the Medium Filigree Snowflake  and did the same blue sponging. I didn't want the snowflakes centered I wanted them to appeared as if they were captured falling.

Have a wonderful day,

and 

Happy New Year

Snowy Birthday

Hi all, today I wanted to show you a card I made for my granddaughters birthday its not until December so want it to be more winter and not to much Christmas. I found this stamp last year but it did not arrive in time to us it then. I also wanted to use a different fold, so I chose to do a gate fold.

I started by stamping Marci by La - La Land Crafts I tried some different color combinations an  and decided to use the burgundy and brown on the front. After fussy cutting Marci I started on the front of the card. I cut two burgundy panels then using a old toothbrush and Copic Opaque White I spattered the panels. For the hill she is standing on was cut with a die then lightly covered with Flowersoft snow white. The sign is from DRS designs.The snowflake punches are MS.

I also want to tell you about a great deal that I found  it's a web site called Scrapbook Outlet  they have great prices on die and embossing folders I got five dies and a embossing folder for fifty dollars and free shipping. The service was a little slow as it took 4 days for it to be shipped but it does say on the web site that it could take three to five days, I ordered on a Monday and had it in my hand by the next Tuesday. At these prices I would gladly order from them again.

  

Have a wonderful day,

Cowboy Love

Janett Ray
Janett's Stamping Place

Hi everyone, we have been having some cold days this week and I have been wanting to make a winter card this is what I came up with.

 I started by stamping the Cowboy Snowman, and coloring with Copic markers.

I wanted it to have a Valentine feel and I don't have a heart die so I cut one with a X-acto Knife. Then I went around the edge with a clear Embossing pen  and added some white embossing powder. I wanted it to look rustic not to smooth.After hearing the powder I ran it through a snow embossing folder. The I stamped the 

                  I Melt For You Greeting   

with Peacock Distress Ink, and added a snowflake button.

All the stamp are DRS designs.

And here are the colors that I used.

If you like what you see or have any questions please leave a comment.

Have a wonderful day,

Janett 

Christmas Gift Card Holder

Good morning all, I need some gift card holders so I could finish up my gift wrapping. This is what I came up with simple but cute.

The red card stock is 7 1/2 x 3 1/2 and scored at 1/2 inch and 4 inches. 

                                                                                                       The kraft card stock is 10 x 3 1/4,  scored at 4 inches and 8 inches.

I stamped the Interlocking Snow Background and white ink.

 I cut a piece of the kraft card stock with a Spellbinder die and stamped the Small Merry Christmas with Coco ink and added a red line by tracing inside the die with a distress marker. The punched snowflake is MS.

The kraft layer was stamped with Splatter Background and white ink then stamped the Interlocking Snow background in the Coco ink.

This is how the inside looks.

I'm off to work on some more Christmas preparations.

Have a wonderful day,

Janett

Tags,Tags,and more Tags.

Hi all, I have been a busy little bee this week. Christmas cards are in the mail and I have been working on some gifts this week I will show them soon. Friday I  baked Monster cookies I love these cookies you can find the recipe Here. It was my mother in laws 79 birthday and we took them to her with a birthday card, when you ask here what she wants for a gift she all ways says nothing but I think she like her cookies.

I have started making some tags for my Christmas gifts I thought I would show them to you today.

For this tag I used the smallest part of the Woven Plaid and black in. Then I used a gold pen to add some sparkle. The main image is the cute Joyful Christmas Mouse. Copic markers were used to color the image.

For this one I used the Polka Dot Background with white ink. I used part of the Playful Penguins Postage.

 The Interlocking Snow Background and white ink makes the background. The Tiny Snowman was stamped with Coco ink and colored with Copic markers. I used the background stamp and Coco ink to stamp the snowflakes.

The background on this one was done just like the last tag. I stamped the Simple Snowman and colored with Copic markers then fussy cut. He was attached with foam tape.

And last I used the smallest part of the Woven Plaid and green ink to make this checked pattern paper. The Triple Holly was colored with Copic markers and fussy cut. This was attached with foam tape. The red and white Polka strip is Decorative Tape.

Have a Wonderful day,

Janett

Snow Storm

I made this card for the Tuesday Morning Sketch Challenge.

I started by stamping the Simple Snowman and covering him with a mask. Then I air brushed on BG78, B99, BV29. I removed the mask.  I colored the snowman with some Booo. Dampened a  section of Terry Cloth with Blending Soloution hold for 3 sections then move to the next section. Makes a great snow storm.

The Interlocking Snow Background  and the In the Meadow  were stamped with Distress Ink Peacock Feathers.

Warm Wishes

Hi all, I hope you had a great Christmas. I had a wonderful time with family and friends. It was a gray day not to cold, but the next day the rain and wind moved in with a few snowflakes winter has come to Georgia.

For my card today I chose a winter theme. I used the DRS designs Medium Filigree Snowflake, Ice Skates, and the Warm Wishes Greeting.

For the background I tried the Twinkling H2O’s tutorial form Splitcoast Stampers. I stamped the Medium Filigree Snowflake in Versa Mark and clear Embossing Powder on white paper using Blue Ice and Periwinkle Twinkling H2O’s. The Ice Skates were stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Copic markers, I used the Lables 18 Spellbinder Die to cut out the image then Blue Ice Twinkling H2O’s were used to color the background with the image still in the die. I traced around the die onto black paper and cut it out with scissors.  The Warm Wishes Greeting was stamped with black ink and the background was colored with the Twinkling H2O’s while it was still in the die. The background was layered onto black card then attached to a white card.

Stay warm and have a Happy New Year,

Janett

Winter Time Explosion Box

Hi everyone, I have become obsessed with making these Explosion Boxes. My granddaughter birthday is Friday, and we are going to give her gift to her on Thursday night so she can wear it to school on Friday. We always get her a new Christmas dress. But her party is not until Saturday, and I wanted to have a little gift to give her at her party.( she’s our only girl) I thought she would think this was fun.

I wanted to use a winter theme not to Christmas and very girly lot’s of sparkle. All the stamps are by DRS designs. I used white card stock for all the boxes. I stamped the Interlocking Snow Background in French Blue Chalk ink and embossed it with sparkle clear embossing powder, I stamped 2 of the Large Filigree Snowflake the same way and cut them out. I put a small strip of a clear Polyester sheet between the two snowflakes so it would stand up. The two smaller snowflakes are MS punches that are cover with white glitter after attaching to the box lid I added glue then flower soft and glitter. On the edge of the lid is some lt. blue boa that came from Michele’s.

For the inside I used pink and snowmen, Copics were used to color everything and lots of white and pink glitter. A MS punch was used along the edge of the box top.

For the last layer I was thinking ice and snow. A embossing folder was used on all the layers and I did sponge some blue around the edges and used a brayer to spread glitter glue over the top. The floating snowflakes are done the same as the ones on the top of the first lid. I stamped the Tree line border all the way around the small box in white and embossed with sparkly clear embossing powder. The edge of the box top is punched with a MS Icicles punch and covered with Glossy Accents. For the top I add a white satin bow and a glitter snowflake. This is the little box were her little gift will go.

I hope you like my little gift box.

Have a wonderful day,

Janett
