poppystamps Whittle Friendly Snowman and Double Joy Card…

November 18, 2021 Pam Sparks9 Comments

Hi everyone! I’m so happy with this card! I probably could’ve added more and tried to bling it up but this time I just left him to say JOY to the world! ❤

This is a new poppystamps snowman die… so whimsical and fun! Oh you know a little holly might’ve been nice… I always think of things after! lol

I put him on a bed of snow from the new poppystamps Layered House Globe die set.

He just melts your heart, doesn’t he?! ❤ Oh…a heart on his belly to represent the O for joy would’ve been super fun too!

I used a plaid paper from last Winter’s 6×6 plaid paper pad called Christmas Plaid! I’m not finding it to link to anymore but I’ll link to this year’s pad that would work too! ugh. Sorry about that. I don’t know why I grabbed this one instead of the new one.

I die cut him from heavy white cardstock and colored his parts with Copic Sketch Markers. I backed the circles with a smaller punch circle so I would have something to glue his eyes and carrot too. Then I used mounting tape behind his top part, mounting tape behind the snow hill and mounting tape behind the top parts of the letters J and Y.

I die cut the plaid with the largest Memory Box Stitched Square Layers die. Then I matted it with black cardstock and adhered them to a 5 ½ x 5 ½ piece of green from the Memory Box 6×6 Lush Green cardstock pad. It matches perfectly with this plaid! yay!

‘To The World’ sentiment is from the new Memory Box Festive Christmas Greetings again… this is such a good set!

I love this new poppystamps Double Joy die too… you get so many options with the two dies included in the set!

Mr. Frosty is 5 ½ in. x 5 ½ in. square. So cute! I need to make some more of these and vary them a little as I go! hehe

Thank you so much for stopping by and your comments and for shopping through my links! I appreciate it!

Memory Box Snowmen Snowglobe and Snowglobe Backer…

August 3, 2020August 3, 2020 Pam Sparks10 Comments

I’m back with two more snowglobe tags/ornaments! These two are glitteriffic and SO CUTE!

I took a phone picture with my hand in it so you’d get an idea of the size of these delightful things!

Pictures do not do them justice… they are just so cute!

I used all four of the new dies for this Snowman one.

Close up of the snowgirl! I used the Santa hat and ear muffs for her… colored the glitter card with Copics.

I grabbed what I thought was a clear glaze pen and colored over some of the pieces only to find out when they dried it was the white glaze pen! lol It left them looking snowy and I used them anyway. I used a black glaze pen on Frosty’s hat.

Close up of Frosty snowguy! Such personality!

Close up of the layers…

The NEW Glitter pads from Memory Box are SO beautiful and die cut wonderfully! I die cut with blades up and one printer paper shim on top of the cutting plate when I ran through my Big Shot.

Next up, the penguin takes the show. He’s from the Snowglobe Backer die. Now that I look at my pictures, I wish I’d put some text on this one… like ‘let it snow’! I think I will do that! ❤ Or a teeny heart on his chest… oh my… why do the ideas come after pictures! ha

I copic colored his feet and nose…his eyes are little black gems…his body and hat are glitter cardstock and his black outline body is black cardstock colored with a black glaze pen.

I used all four dies again for the layers…silver glitter cardstock.

I just realized I haven’t written in the finished size yet! They are all 3 inches wide and 4 ⅛ inches tall. So adorable!

I’m excited to see how they sparkle hanging on the Christmas tree!

A closer look at the layers again…

A lot of pictures today…hope they all loaded for you and you get the idea of how special they are! A keepsake to get out every year!

I’ll link up everything below…thank you for shopping through my links. I really appreciate it.

I changed to paying for my blog awhile back so I don’t have other advertisements in my posts…that should really help if you’re looking at my blog on your phone. I also have to pay monthly for the link up service for products I use and it takes so much time to take pictures, write posts and make product lists. So I’m here working for you!

More to come…Christmas is my favorite and it’s August already my dear cardmaking friends! EEK! Don’t panic, don’t panic. lol

I’ll be back soon with more sparkle and shine! ❤

Impression Obsession Snowman With Fence Birthday Card…

February 4, 2020February 4, 2020 Pam Sparks8 Comments

January is a big birthday month for our family… I’m behind posting my cards! This one was for our youngest grandson Charles… he picked out the stamp. I made him another interactive card that I was experimenting with that he loved. I need to improve on it though to make that one post worthy! lol

I stamped this on Canson Smooth Bristol and watercolored it with Zig Clean Color Brush markers.

Definitely a jolly, happy soul! I used some Nuvo Crystal Drops gloss white on the snow.

I stamped the number 5 on one of the new poppystamps Heart Tag Trio. The snow is from a new poppystamps Whittle Cloud Border die set. Both die cut in white cardstock. I love how fluffy it looks as snow!

The sentiment Birthday Boy is from poppystamps Sentiments of Hello stamp set, inked up with Taylored Expressions Cookie Monster Ink. Taylored Expressions cardstock, Confetti Cake for the card base also.

Thanks for stopping by today! I have a couple CAS Valentines to post soon, so I’ll be back! ❤

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! ❤

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!
