Winter Delights

Hi all, i'm ready for some cold and snow. I am so done with this warm winter and these crazy storms I pray for all the people that lost there homes in the south.

As I was thinking of snow I made this winter card.

I started by stamping the Winter Wonder Words Background on white card stock with Peacock Feathers Distress Ink. On a separate piece of card stock I used a edge die to cut the hill then I stamped the Simple Snowman  and colored him with Copic markers I covered him with a mask and stamped the Snow Background with the Peacock Feather Ink. Along the top edge I used glitter glue to add a frosty touch. These were mounted on brown card stock then a white card.

On the inside I stamped the Snowy Days Frosty Night in Coco Ink then stamped the Snow background over the top.

On the back I added the Snowman Especially for you and a strip with the snow background.

Have a wonderful day,

Janett

Snow Better Christmas

Hi all,

today I have a shaker card.

This card was so easy to make.

I started by die cutting a square.

Then stamping the New

and coloring with Zig Clear Color markers.

I cut two fun foam frames and 1 from card stock then a square from Transparency Film and one more card stock square.

On the back I added another square that was scored at 1.5 Inches and glued it across the top.

This is a very simple way to make a  shaker card.

Cowboy Love

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,

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,

Boxed up Snowman

By: Janett Ray

Janett's Stamping Place

Hi everyone were starting to warm up a bit here we should reach 48, I feel so bad for the people in New York that are getting so much snow. All this talk of snow had me thinking about snowmen.

I bought the Gift Box Punch Board by We are Memory Keepers at the first of the year and have not even tried it out. Well  Craft Horders Anonymous challenge this week is boxes so I thought I would give it a try. I made three boxes 8x8 start line M, diagonal M, 2  6x6, start line S, diagonal S, and 10x10 start line L, diagonal L. On the Large and Medium box I stamped the Large Filigree Snowflake   (by DRS designs) with white Color Box ink and clear glittered embossing powder. I could not get it to show up in any of the pitchers but it looks really nice. After stamping the boxes I scored and folded them. For the buttons on the large and medium boxes I used office supply brads that I heated and dipped in black sparkle embossing powder. I opened the boxes and poked holes for the brads then closed them up. The eyes and mouth are demensional stickers and the nose it a paper triangle. Between the head box and the hat box is a black circle that I bent and shaped to look like a hat brim then I added 1/2 inch Tear-ific tape and red glitter for the band. The snow flake is a brad that was heated and diped in clear sparkle embossing powder. The scarf is 1/2 inch Tear-ific tape covered in red glitter. ( you can find more about this technique Here) I used the 1/2 inch Tear-ific Tape to stick the boxes together.

Don't forget to join in the DRS Designs Color challenge this week. 

Have a wonderful day,

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.

And here is the colors.

Have a great day,

Janett

Bling in the Holidays

Burrr, it's is cold outside this weekend a perfect day to stamp up some winter cards.

This card I started with the background paper, I saw a dress on Pinterest and I love the colors and the sparkle. I took a 4 inch by    5 1/4 white paper and ran it through the Zyron to cover it with sticky then I used three colors of glitter (white, copper, and teal) and just covered a third of the paper with each color. Then I stamped the Large Snowmama with Memento Tuxedo Black and colored her with Copic markers. Then fussy cut.

I added some clear glitter to the snowflakes on her hat. For the greeting I used Versa Mark ink and copper embossing powder and stamped the Bling In The Hoilidays. I used 1/8 inch Tear-ific tape around the edges and teal glitter.

These were attached to the front of the glitter panel.This panel was attached to a copper card. Now for the ribbon this is the coolest technique I have seen in a long time. I used 1/2 inch Tear-ific Tape. You tear of as much tape as you think you will need cover with glitter. Remove the backing from the other side and cover it with glitter. Now you have a ribbon that you can make a bow from, Here is the video were I found the technique.   

And don't forget the back. The stamp that I used is Snowman Stamped By

This is the colors that I used.

Have a wonderful day,

Janett
