Hi there! Today I’m sharing a couple of projects from the festive new Limited Edition Holy Family 2021 Card Kit.

Simon Says Stamp-Layering Bethlehem Skyline Stencils

For this card I used the Layering Holy City Skyline Stencil Set included in the kit. I used some of the new Pawsitively Saturated Inks to create a soft, subtle layered Holy City. I used some Iridescent Glitz Glitter Get with the stars stencil included in the set. I embossed the sentiment in white onto black from the Holy Night stamp set.

For this next card I used the Refracted Embossing Folder with cream cardstock. Isn’t that texture amazing?

Shimmering Snowflakes

September 8, 2021

Hi there! Popping in to share a quick peek at the latest Gina K Designs STAMPtember® 2021 Exclusive Collaboration called Shimmering Snowflakes. This set is unfortunately already sold out, but I share these STAMPtember® projects as inspiration for ideas that you can use with products that you might already have. Perhaps you already have a snowflake stamp set. This could very well be adapted to any larger solid image that could be embossed in white onto vellum.

Gina K Designs STAMPtember® 2021 Exclusive Collaboration

I used the Nested Circle dies with solid colored cardstock to draw the eye towards the snowflake. The snowflake was embossed in white onto vellum and the sentiment embossed in white onto black. I used one of the Sentiment Label dies to cut out the sentiment strip.

September 4, 2021

Hello there! Simon Says Stamp is releasing their next STAMPtember® Collaboration with Memory Box called True Friend.

For my card I embossed the large floral image from the True Friend stamp set in clear onto white cardstock. I used a few of the new Simon Says Stamp Pawsitively Saturated Inks to blend in the color.

Volleyball Rainbow

August 29, 2021

Hi there! Today I have a rainbow volleyball themed card to share with you. My daughter, Bailey, recently made the volleyball team and I thought it was a perfect opportunity to make a card for her. She was nervous after coming back from two years in Germany, but she tried out and is doing so great!

SSS-Game Day Dies, CZ Silhouette Sentiments

To create the volleyballs I used the Game Day die set with several shades of solid colored cardstock. I trimmed each square to 2 1/4″ using a lighter shade and then adhered a darker shade of volleyball to each square using liquid glue.

SSS-Game Day Dies, CZ Silhouette Sentiments

There are so many other balls in the Game Day die set that you could create this same design for many different sports. For the sentiment I used the CZ Silhouette Sentiments set. I popped up the rainbow volleyball squares onto a Fog panel and then onto a white cardbase.

If you happen to have a sport loving member in your family, then this Game Day die set would be perfect to make those sporty cards. Wishing you a colorful day! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Geometric Builder Circles

August 28, 2021

Hi there! Today I’m sharing another project using the Geometric Builder Circles die set. I don’t think I will ever get sick of this die set. There’s just too many creative and fun patterns that you can make with it.

SSS-Geometric Builder Circles, Reverse Get Well Sentiment Strips

I used several little scraps of solid cardstock along with my Altenew Mini Blossom and created this fun little quilt-like pattern. I’m pretty sure there’s a name for this pattern, but I can’t seem to remember it.

SSS-Geometric Builder Circles, Reverse Get Well Sentiment Strips

For the sentiment I used one of the Reverse Get Well Sentiment Strips with the smallest Sentiment Label Dies. I popped the design onto a cream panel and then onto a white cardbase.
