Memory Box Snowflake Card Series Day One…

November 3, 2019 Pam Sparks14 Comments

Welcome to Day One of my Snowflake Series of 2019 Christmas Cards! The idea for this came from the fact that it seemed like I was sticking a snowflake on every card I was making! lol

Today’s card is an A6 size but still goes through the mail for one forever postage stamp in the USA.

I started with a piece of the new Memory Box ‘Dashing Holiday’ 6×6 pattern paper. I tacked it lightly to the cardbase because I wanted to be able to go in with the Tiny Attacher stapler here and there.

I die cut Antique Pine Label, Antique Greenery Label, Bauble Snowflakes and the snowflake from the Bauble Snowflake Frame from cardstock and the label inside from a piece of plaid from the same new paper pad.

Then it was just a matter of arranging and stapling in 3 places. Three Glitter Dome embellishing dots in red. Cindy has them in other colors here, the white could be colored red?

A little bit of glue here and there and I had a festive card!

Thanks for stopping by today and I’ll be back tomorrow for Day Two…it looks like there will be seven days altogether! The last day I’ll try to have a quick video where I’ll just show the cards again all in one place.

Memory Box Scribble Snowman Card…

October 27, 2019October 27, 2019 Pam Sparks10 Comments

I saw the sketch challenge at Freshly Made Sketches and I had to play! Does that ever happen to you? You see something and you have to go make! If I don’t do it right away I forget and the deadline helps me get it done too! lol

I’m loving the new paper pads from Memory Box so I paired it up with the new Scribble Snowman dies and a new poppystamps Holly Outline die for this quick CAS card!

I do like to edge my pattern papers with distress ink and the round mini ink blending tools. I know everyone is changing to brushes and I have those too but the mini foam works great for edging lightly with ink. I used Gathered Twigs.

I needed words! So I started reading stamp sets. lol This poppystamps Whittle Everyday set had the perfect ones!

Then I had a few snowflakes laying on my desk… oh yes, the snowman needs a flake! haha

Thanks for clicking over and checking out my card! I appreciate your visit! Links below to what I used if you want to see exactly! I thank you so much for clicking and shopping if you do too! ❤

Memory Box Pine Tree Hill Card and Birch Press Design Splendor Bevel Card…

October 26, 2019October 26, 2019 Pam Sparks9 Comments

Hi everyone! Happy card Saturday! Can’t say happy winter yet! whew! lol

I started out making a Distress Oxide background A2 size panel with Salty Ocean, Blueprint Sketch, Chipped Sapphire and Black Soot inks. I used the round foam mini blending tools for this because I put down a pretty heavy layer of each ink.

I let it dry, spattered it with water, spattered it with gold ink, let it dry again and die cut it with the new Memory Box Starry Burst die.

I die cut and embossed the new Memory Box Pine Tree Hill die from Classic Crest 110# cardstock, stamped happy Winter from the Memory Box Winter Greenery clear stamp set, with the We R Memory Keepers Precision Press Advanced Platform… love this set!

I attached the tree panel to the background panel with foam mounting tape. That’s it!

Peace always makes me think blue and night sky-ish! Here I went with blue glitter cardstock for the panel behind the new Birch Press Design Splendor Bevel Plate and Mini Splendor Bevel Plate sets… glam it up!

Die cut everything in white and then layer it up!

For the Holly, I grabbed a Memory Box die, Antique Holly Label and poppystamps Holly Outline for the berries. Die cut them from glitter cardstock too!

The beautiful Peace die is also new from Birch Press Design, Peace Honey Script. I can’t wait to use it by cutting the background layer die from a cardstock panel and the word peace mounted on the card base inside the background cut. Like I did on this card…

Thanks for stopping by! I’ll be back soon!

New Memory Box Snowman Circle Collage and Bauble Snowflake Corner Card…

October 16, 2019October 16, 2019 Pam Sparks13 Comments

Frosty here… and yes he does come with two hats and a scarf, so cute! I left him plain jane today but it’s still magical frosty with this beautiful Bauble Snowflake Corner! HERE he is made up (by MB owner, Dave) all colorful cute on the cover of the new Look Book.

I die cut and flat glued everything. Stamped the sentiment with We R Memory Keepers Advanced Precision Press and Black Archival ink.

I added a few baby white pearls on the snowflakes and black tiny gems for his buttons.

A very sweet, clean and simple card. He’ll be back again someday!

I hope you’re enjoying all the new products from Memory Box! During September, Simon Says Stamp had posts on Instagram introducing stamp and die company owners. One they posted was Dave and Monica that own Memory Box, poppystamps and Birch Press Design! So if you click HERE, it’ll take you to that post and you can meet them and see their picture! (you might have to scroll up, over in the text part to read the post) Fun!

Thank you for stopping by! Talk to you again soon!
