Memory Box Mistletoe Swag and Winter Greenery…

Hi everyone! Pull out some plaid and stick on some greenery!  I was inspired by the sketch on one of the current card challenges, link at the end of my post.

I die cut two of the circle from the NEW Stylish Frame Trio set, in Taylored Expressions Toffee cardstock. I inked them a little with Gathered Twigs Distress Ink and the mini ink blending tool.  I just kinda ‘stomped’ color onto them.

The plaid is from a couple years ago…I’ll try to find some current plaid to link to.

I stamped 4 of the smaller branch in the NEW Mistletoe Swag clear stamp set with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Copic x-press it coloring cardstock using the MISTI stamping tool. There aren’t any dies for this stamp set so I used my scan and cut machine but you could easy cut them by hand.  I like to cut by hand but the S and C works really nice with the grandkids…I can’t cut fast enough for them! lol

I colored with Copic Sketch Markers…some bright greens!  YG03, 06, 09 and 17.  The berries are R14, 17, 29 and 59.

I stamped up a bunch of branches from the NEW Winter Greenery stamp set using Lawn Fawn’s Jalapeño ink pad.  Then I die cut them all out with the coordinating dies.  They matched up and cut really easy and nice.  I have some left over for a couple more cards!

The ‘warm wishes’ sentiment is from the Winter Greenery set also… I love this scripty font!  So festive!  I cut the sentiment with the MISTI Cut Align Ruler and the plaid mat behind it with the ruler also.

 

Here’s the sketch I was talking about…fun cards/inspiration!

I’m linking my card to the Freshly Made Sketches Challenge

Thank you for stopping by today!  Happy weekend to you! 😀

Memory Box Mistletoe Swag Stamp Set…

Hi everyone!  Have you seen the new stamp sets from Memory Box?  So fun to stamp and color!  I started out with this new Mistletoe Swag set but I had red on the brain and you’ll have to excuse my lapse in coloring the berries red here.  It is now some kind of Winter red berry!  I know…. I’m rolling my eyes at myself too.

I colored with Distress Ink reinkers…festive berries and peeled paint. The background is Tumbled Glass.

I spattered with white and blue ink, then sprayed the whole thing with Frost Shimmer Spray.

So many fun words to combine for sentiments in these sets too.  I stamped in white ink on black and embossed with white powder.

I die cut the smaller snowflake from the new Bauble Snowflake die set and glued them on. Several small clear sequins glued on for sparkle too.

And look at this!  A limited editionSky Blue Big Shot!  I know…swooning over a Big Shot. lol  Well, it’s a beauty! ❤

AND there’s this offer too!

Welp, back to cards for me…hope this finds you all rested up after a labor free weekend. ha.

Thanks for stopping by!
