Christmas in July 2024 {BYSHC} Linky Party ~ Snowglobe Christmas ~ RAM Stamps

 Hello there crafty friend!
It's day 3 of the Christmas in July 2024 {BYSHC} Linky Party!! I'm excited to share another sweet card that I've made to add to my Christmas stash! This time I played with the adorable Snowglobe Christmas Digital Stamp from our fabulous Sponsor RAM Stamps. Such a sweet and adorable digital stamp!


I really enjoyed coloring the adorable Snowglobe Christmas Digital Stamp up with my Copic markers. I used neutrals and blues to coordinate with my blue and silver background. If you visited yesterday and saw my Day 2 card, this is one of the other digital images I printed off. I like to have three or four digital images on a sheet before I print it off. This way I'm less likely to waste card stock. Once I was happy with my coloring, I die cut the panel using a die from the Deckle & Stitches Nesting Die Set from our lovely Sponsor Unity Stamp Co.

Here's a quick list of the Copic markers I used:
Skin: E000, E00, E11
Hair: E70, E71, E74, E77
Hair Clip / Ribbon: R20, R14
Scarf / Tights: B000, B00, B02, B04, B28
Coat: C00, C1, C3, N0, N1, N2, N3, N4, N6
Gloves: R20, R14, B000, B02
Shoes: N0, N2, N4, N6
Snowglobe: C00, C1, C3, B0000, B000, G24, E51, E55, E57
Snow: N0, N1, N3
Snowflakes: B0000, B000
Outline: B0000, B000, B00


I used a retired Deco Foil Toner Card Front called Snow Many Flakes by Unity and Therm O Web for my snowflake layer. I trimmed a piece of Silver Shattered Glass Deco Foil Transfer Sheet and laid it on top of the card front foil facing up. I ran it through my laminator after it was heated up a few minutes after the green light came on. I've found my laminator does better if it has those extra couple of minutes. Such a quick and easy background it created! And beautiful! Love these foils! For my blue layer I wanted to try something a little different. I wanted some texture on my foil so I die cut a piece of white card stock using the slightly larger die from the one I used for the main panel. And then I applied some Deco Foil Transfer Gel Duo with a palette knife along the edges of the die cut card stock. I didn't apply it evenly. I left bumps and layers in the transfer medium to give texture to the foils. I let the transfer medium dry and placed a piece of Deep Blue Deco Foil Transfer Sheet over the tacky panel and ran it through my laminator since it was on. I could have ran it through my Big Shot to apply the foil since the Deco Foil Transfer Gel Duo works both ways.


All of my layers and the die cut snowflakes are adhered using iCraft UltraBond Adhesive from Sponsor Therm O Web. I used the Sizzix Sidekick Side-Order Winter Set from Tim Holtz for the snowflakes. They were in my stash of precut die pieces... so handy! I added foam tape called iCraft 3D Foam Tape Jumbo Roll (white), also from Therm O Web, to the back of the main panel and popped it up on the card. I stamped the Happy Holiday sentiment from the Wishing You Mini stamp set from our wonderful Sponsor Gina K. Designs. I inked it up using Chipped Sapphire Distress Ink on white card stock. Trimmed up the sentiment, added a small piece of foam tape to the left end and then glued the rest of the sentiment to the card. For one final touch on the card, I added some glittery goodness to the snowglobe using a Nuvo Glitter Gloss Aqua Shimmer pen. I wish it showed up in the photos... it's really pretty in person!


If you haven't already, stop by the Christmas in July 2024 {BYSHC} Linky Party to check out all the wonderful Holiday inspiration being shared!! I have so many wonderful ideas for future cards! So inspiring! I hope you have an ink-redible day!

See ya next time.

Inky Hugs,
Crystal

Falling for the Holidays 2023 {BYSHC} Linky Party ~ Stellar Snowflake Stencil ~ Gina K. Designs

 Hello there crafty friend!
I'm back with my sixth card for the Falling for the Holidays 2023 {BYSHC} Linky Party! My card today features a mix of products from a few of our wonderful Sponsors of the Linky Party. I went a bit out of my comfort zone and made a pink-red snowflake card featuring the awesome Stellar Snowflake Stencil from our return Sponsor Gina K. Designs. I also used a die from the Scallops & Rectangles {nesting dies} from Sponsor Unity Stamp Co.


Normally I would use a blue or a purple for a snowflake. Last year I used green with this beautiful stencil. I really loved how that card turned out. This time I was thinking a mix of pink and red would be fun. What do you think? I blended Kitsch Flamingo and Candied Apple Distress Oxide inks over the Stellar Snowflake Stencil. It would be so easy to make multiples of this card! 


I die cut the panel using the larger stitched rectangle die from the Scallops & Rectangles {nesting dies} from Unity. I stamped the sentiment from the Joy of the Season STAMPtember stamp set from Gina K. Designs and Simon Says Stamp. Unfortunately, that's an exclusive set that was sold in 2018. I mat the snowflake panel with a piece of True Black card stock measuring 3-3/4 x 5" and then I adhered it to a card front of Real Red card stock measuring 4-1/4 x 5-1/2" using the Bearly Art Precision Craft Glue from our Sponsor Bearly Art. I recently bought THE MINI... and I have to say I'm enjoying this glue!! If you follow my blog or cardmaking... you know that I LOVE my liquid glue!! 


I added some sparkle to the card with some Holiday Glitter enamel dots from Sponsor Gina Marie Designs. They are the perfect size for these dots in the snowflake! I adhered the card front panel to a white A2 top fold card base measuring 4-1/4 x 11"; scored at 5-1/2".


 Have you stopped by the Falling for the Holidays 2023 {BYSHC} Linky Party to check out all the wonderful Holiday inspiration being shared?! I am blown away by all the amazing cards! I sure hope you'll stop by and check them out.


Thanks so much for stopping by!

Falling for the Holidays 2023 {BYSHC} Linky Party ~ Caitlin Girl ~ Unity Stamp Co.

Hello there crafty friend!
I'm so excited to share another card for day 4 of the Falling for the Holidays 2023 {BYSHC} Linky Party!! Today I'm featuring the wonderful Caitlin Girl stamps from Sponsor Unity Stamp Co. I have had this beauty in my collection for quite some time, but I'm pretty sure this is the first time I've inked her up.


I paired this sweet stamp up with the lovely Rustic Winter Wishes {paper pack} also from Unity. I love the contrast of the dark background with the pop of white for the focal panel. I also found a piece of kraft pattern paper in my paper pack that was perfect size for this sketch. I adhered my pattern paper layers to a white A2 top fold card base using the iCraft UltraBond Adhesive from Sponsor Therm O Web.


Caitlin Girl was stamped with Black Amalgam ink from Sponsor Gina K. Designs. I colored her up with Copic markers and also did a bit of paper piecing for her hat and jacket using a pretty paper from the Getting Cozy {paper pack} that is also from Unity. 
Here's a quick list of the Copic Markers I used:

Skin ~ E000, E00, E11
Hair ~ YR31, E43, E44
Scarf  / Gloves / Boots / Accents ~ R20, R14, R46
Pants ~ E51, E31, E33
Belt ~ E51, E31, E33, E35
Small Snowman ~ C00, B0000, YG11, G24, G46, R20, R14, R46, YR15, YR68
Snowman ~ C00, B0000, YG11, G24, G46, YR15, YR68
Outline ~ C00, C1


I die cut the colored image with a die from the Scalloped Stitched Mini Slimline dies from Sponsor Gina Marie Designs. The space on the right side of Caitlin Girl was limited but I thought the fun 'Merry Christmas' sentiment from the Cute Santa stamps from Unity would fit and it did!! I stamped it with Candied Apple Distress Oxide inks. And then I covered the back of the panel with a bunch of iCraft 3D Foam Squares from Sponsor Therm O Web. I love the dimension the foam gives to the card!


My card was inspired by the {BYSHC} Sketch 10. Another favorite! It works really well with larger stamps!  Have you visited the Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers Facebook group? We host a fun sketch challenge each month to inspire our holiday cardmaking all year long. It's been such a big help to me. No more stressing in November/December if I'll have enough Christmas cards ready.


Just a reminder that I'm also a Sponsor for the Falling for the Holidays 2023 {BYSHC} Linky Party and this is the fabulous prize package that I am offering for one lucky winner. It's filled with goodies from a few of our Sponsors... and I actually have a pack of Happy Feet Embellishment Mix  from Sponsor Twiddler's Nook that I just found and I'm adding to this prize!

Christmas in July 2023 {BYSHC} Linky Party ~ Snowflake Net Stencil ~ A Colorful Life Designs

 Hello there crafty friend!
I'm back with my last card for the Christmas in July 2023 {BYSHC} Linky Party! It's also my last card for the {BYSHC} Sketch Challenge 35. My card for today features a mix of products from a few of our wonderful Linky Party Sponsors again.


I wanted a simple plaid background using the Plaid Cover Dies Bundle from Sponsor Pink & Main. I love how combining these two A2 sized dies with different card stock colors makes for such an easy background. I die cut the Plaid Cover Die Panel A from Cool Caribbean card stock from Stampin' Up. I die cut the Plaid Cover Die Panel B from Orchid Opulence card stock, also from SU.


Next, I ink blended Seedless Preserves and Broken China Distress Oxides over the fabulous Snowflake Net Stencil from Sponsor A Colorful Life Designs onto a 6 x 6" piece of white card stock. I die cut a portion of it with the second largest die from the Pleated Lace Mini Slimline die from Sponsor Gina Marie Designs. Not sure yet what I'll do with the other portion. I also die cut a scrap of white card stock that I trimmed and adhered to the stenciled panel. 
 

Here's a look at this month's {BYSHC} Sketch 35. I turned the sketch for my card... mostly for the sentiment to sit at the bottom of the focal panel. There's still a bit of time to play along with the sketch!! Entries must be submitted prior to July 31st at 11:59pm PST in the Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers Facebook group.


The sentiment from the Wishing You Mini Stamp Set from Sponsor Gina K. Designs was then stamped on the bottom white portion of the panel with Seedless Preserves Distress Oxide ink. I stamped two snowflakes from the Wishing You Mini Stamp Set... one with the Seedless Preserves and the other with Broken China Distress Oxide ink. I fussy cut them leaving a tiny bit of a white border and then adhered them together using the iCraft UltraBond Adhesive from our wonderful Sponsor Therm O Web. I adhered the snowflakes to the stenciled panel and then I popped up the panel and snowflakes on the card using 3D Foam Squares from Sponsor Therm O Web. I finished off the card by adding a few white rhinestones from the Frosty Rhinestones from our Sponsor Gina Marie Designs to the centers of the snowflakes. 


I have had SO much fun playing along with the Christmas in July 2023 {BYSHC} Linky Party! I hope that you've been inspired to make a few Christmas cards to relieve some of the holiday stress. I know that I am feeling great about the 8 cards and 3 tags that I made. If you missed the tags I shared on my Instagram you can check them out here... 3 Holiday Tags.

Christmas in July 2023 {BYSHC} Linky Party ~ Decorate My Life ~ Unity Stamp Co.

Hello there crafty friend!
I'm so excited to share my first card for the Christmas in July 2023 {BYSHC} Linky Party hosted by the Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers Facebook group! This is our fourth annual Christmas in July Linky Party. I can't believe how fast time seems to fly by! Even though were in the middle of Summer the linky party is focused on Christmas and wintry holiday cards. It's a great way to get ahead on those holiday cards to relieve some of the stress later on in the year during the holidays. I am super excited to add a few more holiday cards to my Christmas card stash and I sure hope that you'll join in the fun!


For my first card I'm featuring the super sweet Decorate my Life Itty Bitty stamp from Sponsor Unity Stamp Co. I also used the sentiment from the Poinsettia Wishes Itty Bitty stamp, also from Unity. I paired these stamps up with papers from the Vintage Christmas paper pad from The Paper Studio. I adhered all my layers to a white A2 top fold card base using the iCraft UltraBond Adhesive from our wonderful Sponsor Therm O Web.


I stamped the sweet owl using Black Amalgam ink from returning Sponsor Gina K Designs. I love this ink! I can use it for Copic coloring or for watercoloring... so easy peasy. Here's a quick list of the Copic Markers I used to color up the sweet owl:

Owl ~ N0, N1, N3, N5, YR21, YR16, YR14
Coat / Hat ~ YG11, G24, G46, R20, R17, R27
Scarf ~ YG11, G24, G46, R20, R17, R27, C00, C1, C3
Bell ~ Y06, Y28
Boots ~ N0, N2, N4, N6
Heart ~ R20, R17, R27


I trimmed the colored panel and adhered the strip of green plaid pattern paper to the bottom grounding the owl. I rounded the corners using a corner rounder from my stash. I used my handy dandy Crop-a-dile to punch a couple holes in the plaid paper and popped in a couple of brads. I love brads! I should really use them more often. I have a ton in my stash! I adhered the owl panel to the striped pattern paper that was adhered to a white A2 top fold card base. I then stamped the sentiment from the Poinsettia Wishes stamp using Sugar Cube Pigment ink from Sponsor Taylored Expressions onto a scrap of red cardstock. I added some white embossing powder to the white ink and melted the powder with a heat tool - heat embossing it. I trimmed the sentiment and adhered it directly to the card.


My card was inspired by the current {BYSHC} sketch... Sketch 35! Have you visited the Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers Facebook group? We host a fun sketch challenge each month to inspire our holiday cardmaking all year long. I love using sketches for my cards... makes designing the cards so easy! I'll definitely be sharing a few past sketches during the Linky Party.


I'm also a Sponsor for the Christmas in July 2023 {BYSHC} Linky Party!! I have a wonderful prize set aside for one lucky winner. I didn't get a chance to take a picture of the prize so I guess it'll be a fun surprise. For a chance to win my fun prize make a Christmas card and link it up to the linky party blog post on the Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers blog. The winner will be announced on the {BYSHC} blog on Monday, July 31st.

Spring into Christmas 2023 {BYSHC} Linky Party ~ Snowflake Cover Plate ~ Gina K Designs

 Hello there crafty friend!
I can't believe that it's Day 7 of the Spring into Christmas 2023 {BYSHC} Linky Party! It's gone by so fast! I'm sharing card number 7 today and I'm featuring a few of our Sponsors again. 


I used the beautiful Snowflake Cover Plate die from return Sponsor Gina K Designs. I die cut a piece of white card stock using the die and poked out all the little pieces. I did end up using a shim with the die. I had a couple stubborn pieces that didn't want to cut but I added a thin card stock layer to my "sandwich" and ran it through my Big Shot again and they all popped out easy peasy. I blended Tumbled Glass and Shaded Lilac over the die cut piece using TE Blender Brushes from Sponsor Taylored Expressions.


I splattered a bit of water on the die cut background for the oxides to react. I dabbed it with a paper towel to pick up the rest of the water. Once the background was dry, I adhered it to a white A2 top fold card base measuring 4-1/4 x 11"; scored at 5-1/2".


I stamped the sentiment from the Bethlehem's Light stamp set from Sponsor Colorado Craft Company using Sugar Cube Pigment ink from Sponsor Taylored Expressions. Love the mix of fonts on this sentiment and I thought it would look fab with the snowflake background. I added some white embossing powder and melted it with my heat tool. I trimmed it up and then adhered it to the card. I finished off the card by adding three black enamel dots from the 9 Color Rainbow Mirror Foil Enamel Dots from Sponsor Gina Marie Designs.


Be sure to stop by Gina K Designs and Colorado Craft Company to check out their fabulous products! I did see a few holiday products on clearance over at Gina K Designs. And Colorado Craft Company has an awesome BOGO sale happening on their digital stamps... use code BOGODIGIS. I may have snagged a couple awesome holiday digital stamps myself! Have you stopped by the Spring into Christmas 2023 {BYSHC} Linky Party yet?! I sure hope you will... so many wonderful cards being shared!


Thanks so much for stopping by!
See ya next time.

Spring into Christmas 2023 {BYSHC} Linky Party ~ Freaking Cold ~ Unity Stamp Co.

 Hello there crafty friend!
I'm back for day 4 of the Spring into Christmas 2023 {BYSHC} Linky Party. I'm so excited to share my card today because I got to play with a super cool stencil from our Brand New Sponsor A Colorful Life Designs AND I paired it up with one of my new Winter faves from return Sponsor Unity Stamp Co. called Freaking Cold!!


I actually started this card with the beautiful Angie Girl illustrated by the super talented Angie Blom {another one of our sweet sponsors!}. I stamped her with Black Amalgam ink from Sponsor Gina K. Designs. I love this ink and use it all the time with my Unity stamps. It's wonderful with Copics and with watercolors so I don't have to worry about grabbing the wrong ink. Which reminds me I should watercolor... I'm trying to watercolor at least once a month.


Here's a quick list of the Copic markers I used to color up this beauty:

Skin ~ E000, E00, E11, E04, R000, RV10
Hair ~ E21, E23, E27, E29
Nails ~ R20, R14
Hat ~ YG11, G24, G46, C00, C3
Sweater ~ R000, RV10, R20, R14, YG11, G24, G46
Mug ~ BG000, BG32, BG18, E21, E23
Jewelry ~ C00, C3, BG32, BG72


Now for my wonderful background. I ink blended Evergreen Bough and Salty Ocean Distress Oxide inks using the awesome TE Blender Brushes from Sponsor Taylored Expressions over the awesome Snowflake Net stencil from A Colorful Life Designs. You have GOTTA stop by their website and check out ALL the amazing stencils. It was so hard for me to narrow down my picks but I definitely filled up my wishlist for another order!! Anywho, back to my card... I splattered the background with water, white acrylic paint and some Liquid Pixie Dust from Inkon3. I think the glitter is the most noticeable but I love all the textures from the splatters. 


I trimmed down the background panel to 4-1/8 x 5-3/8". I didn't want to cut off too much but I did want a white border around the edges. I die cut a couple stitched hills using the Stitched Hillside Borders dies from Sponsor Lawn Fawn. I adhered the layers sandwiching the bottom of the girl between the layers and then adhered them to my stenciled background. I trimmed off the excess hills from all three sides of the background and adhered the background to a white A2 top fold card base. To finish off the card, I stamped the sentiment using the two distress oxide inks.


I can't believe that we're halfway through the linky party already! Stop by Unity and check out all their wonderful Christmas and Winter stamps... they are 50% OFF right now with code BYHSpromo. I hope that you'll also stop by the Spring into Christmas 2023 {BYSHC} Linky Party to check out all the wonderful Holiday inspiration being shared!! 


Thanks so much for stopping by!
See ya next time.

Falling for the Holidays 2022 {BYSHC} Linky Party ~ Stellar Snowflake Stencil ~ Gina K Designs

  Hello there crafty friend!
Today I'm sharing a pretty card for the Falling for the Holidays 2022 {BYSHC} Linky Party using a beautiful stencil from return Sponsor Gina K. Designs called Stellar Snowflake. This card went in a whole different direction than I had planned but I think it turned out really pretty. 


I ink blended Rustic Wilderness and Shabby Shutters Distress Oxide inks over the stencil onto my white card stock. I chose green inks because I paired up the pretty stenciled background with the White Winter {paper pack} from Sponsor Unity Stamp Co. I thought it would be a fun non-traditional color for a snowflake card...  I really love how it turned out!


I die cut the stenciled layer with the largest stitched rectangle die from the Scallops & Rectangles {nesting dies} from Unity. I also die cut one of the pretty green papers from the paper pack with the largest stitched scalloped rectangle die. Before adhering my die cut layers together I adhered the banner flags to the white layer using iCraft UltraBond Adhesive from new Sponsor Therm O Web and then I trimmed the excess off the edges.


I adhered the layers to a Kraft card front and then adhered the card front to a white A2 top fold card base. I stamped the sentiment from the Wishing You Mini stamp set from Gina K Designs with Sugar Cube Pigment ink from Sponsor Taylored Expressions onto a scrap of Kraft card stock. I added some white embossing powder to the sentiment and melted it with a heat tool. I trimmed the sentiment and adhered it to the card. To finish off the card, I added a few enamel dots to the snowflake from the Cozy Flannel enamel dots from Sponsor Gina Marie Designs


My inspiration for my card design was past {BYSHC} Sketch 23 - a fun one for large stencils or stamps! I did move my sentiment for this one. If you enjoy fun sketches join us in the Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers Facebook groupWe host a fun sketch challenge each month to inspire our holiday cardmaking all year long. I love revisiting the sketches!


Before you leave, be sure to stop by Gina K Designs... lots of new holiday goodies were just released!! Woohoo!! And if you haven't already, stop by the Falling for the Holidays 2022 {BYSHC} Linky Party to check out all the wonderful Holiday inspiration being shared!! I am loving all the amazing cards so far!


Thanks so much for stopping by!
See ya next time.

Crystal

Christmas in July 2022 {BYSHC} Linky Party ~ Merry Merry Mini ~ Colorado Craft Company

 Hello there crafty friend!
It's the last day for the Christmas in July 2022 {BYSHC} Linky Party and I'm sharing a card featuring four Sponsors for our Linky Party... first, I've used the beautiful Merry Merry Mini Savvy Sentiment stamp from return Sponsor Colorado Craft Company. I stamped it with Candied Apple Distress Oxide ink.


I then die cut it with the Wonky Stitched Rectangle die from return Sponsor Gina Marie Designs. I cut all my layers of pretty pattern paper from the Meowy Christmas paper pad from return Sponsor Newton's Nook Designs.


 And to stay a bit closer to the sketch I decided to stamp the super cute coffee cup from the Perfect Blend mini stamp set from return Sponsor Gina K. Designs. Since the focal piece is the sentiment my little cup takes the place of the sentiment in the sketch. I stamped the little cup with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and then colored it up with the following Copic Markers:

Whipped Cream ~ C00, C2
Candies / Straw ~ R20, R14
Cup ~ YG11, YG23


I fussy cut the cup along the black line and colored the edge of the cup with a Memento Tuxedo black marker. I added a bit of foam tape to the back of the cup and popped it up on the card front. I adhered the card front to a white A2 top fold card base. All done!


There's still a bit of time to play along with this month's Sketch 24!! This sketch has been great for using those pretty pattern papers. No matter how hard I try to use up some of my papers, I seem to always manage to grow my stash! Crazy how that happens! LOL


Colorado Craft Company just released some seriously adorable Christmas stamps and coordinating dies... you should really stop by their shop and check them out! I think the new Sweater Weather stamp will be coming to my house. :)  So cute! I hope you'll stop by the Christmas in July 2022 {BYSHC} Linky Party to check out all the wonderful Holiday inspiration being shared!! So many wonderful cards and tags have been shared so far... I'm so inspired to keep on building my stash of holiday cards! I hope you'll join in the fun and play along!


Thanks so much for stopping by!
See ya next time.

Inky Hugs,
Crystal
