SUNSHINE-Deck-the-Halls-card-2

Deck the Halls!

Hello! Today I have a fun ornament card to share using a new Maker Forte stamp set. I love how large this ornament is, it really creates a full card just by itself.

For this stamp, I used some watercolor markers to color up the stamp itself. First I colored the leaves with a green marker and added some darker greens to just portions of the leaves. I spritzed that with water and stamped it down. Then I used a red marker to color the berries, spritzed the stamp with water and stamped it down.

To color the ornament, I used the A2 Circle Spotlight stencil to mask around the ornament and slowly ink blended on a couple green inks. I made portions darker to give it more dimension (so it looks more round).

Next, I added the ornament topper with a light grey ink and colored it with grey Copic markers. I added an extra sprig of greenery by the topper for more festive look!

I heat embossed both the sentiment and the topper with embossing powders. I used my favorite Rainbow Sparkler embossing powder for that “Deck the Halls.”

I matted the whole panel with red cardstock and added it all to the card base. That’s it!

November Release for Our Daily Bread Designs

Hello again! I’m sharing some cards using the November 2018 release from Our Daily Bread Designs. This month is filled with poinsettias and ornaments and it is beautiful!

First up is this large poinsettia stamp and die set called “Merry Christmas.” This is my new favorite poinsettia of all time. It is so detailed and large enough to fill an A2 size card!

I love that this set includes the die to cut out that beautiful poinsettia.

The background paper is a part of the new Christmas Paper Pack 2018. I had to create a pink poinsettia just so I could use this dreamy paper featuring the blush colored florals. The banner die is from a previously released set here.

Next is the fun Poinsettia Box stamp. This one is so different from anything I’ve seen. Here I’ve paired it with some die cut florals and a sentiment “Joy” from the new Merry Messages die set.

I hope it makes you think of overflowing joy, like it does me! I love the look of the flowers falling out of the box 🙂

The last card I’m sharing today features the new Retro Ornaments set. I’ve already made a sneak peek card with this set using Copic markers to color them (find it here); and today I’m using the new Retro Ornaments Paper Pack with these fun ornaments.

Don’t these just scream RETRO? Lol. I have so many projects I have in mind with these fun dies.

I hope you enjoyed these projects today. For more inspiration using the November Release and to see the other designers projects, be sure to visit the ODBD Blog here.
