Paper Players #121

Monday here again so soon, I really do wish the weekend was just a bit longer. Things seem to have returned to normal here on Long Island. The mass hysteria about gas has subsided and most people have power again. My heart still goes out to all of those that lost so much more than power. The only thing to keep in mind is that time erases most things, in time all will get better.

Today’s post is for this week’s Paper Players Challenge. This week the wonderful Anne Marie has give us a color challenge to play with…

As soon as I looked at it saw a nice Holiday card. We have some red and green, even some gold! The base of my card is Very Vanilla Card Stock. I used my En Français Background Stamp inked in Old Olive for my background. The flagged pieces consist of a layer of More Mustard embossed with the Lacy Brocade Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. On top of that is a piece from the Brights Collection Designer Series Paper Stack. The final layer is Very Vanilla stamped with a greeting from the Word Play Stamp Set in Bravo Burgundy. The image is from the Bells & Boughs Stamp Set and is stamped in Basic Black. I used my More Mustard, Bravo Burgundy and Old Olive Stampin’ Write Markers to color the image in. It is then cut out with the Window Frames Collection Framelits Dies and pierced with the Festive Paper-Piercing Pack and Paper-Piercing Tool. I used the Window Frames Collection Framelits to cut out a piece of Bravo Burgundy to back it. Both pieces are mounted to each other and the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I like the vintage feel you get form the Bells & Boughs Stamp and the En Français Stamp. I hope that you enjoyed my card for this week’s Paper Players Challenge. Thank you for visiting today and have great Monday! 🙂

Island Pool Merry Christmas Tags

Hello! How is your weekend so far? Mine has been quite nice. I got some quality craft time in yesterday and that always makes me happy! I have to start getting a move on making my Holiday cards to send out. I can’t believe how fast this year has gone! Christmas will be here before you know it. Have you started on your Holiday cards yet?

For today’s post I made some 3 x 3 cards that would make nice gift tags. The first one uses a base of Island Indigo Card Stock. I used the Simply Scored Tool with the Diagonal Plate to emboss piece of Crumb Cake for the background and adhered it to the base with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The greeting is form the Teeny Tiny Wishes Stamp Set and is stamped in Early Espresso. I used the Bitty Banners Framelits to cut it out. The ornaments, stamped in Pool Party and Island Indigo, are from the Merry Minis Stamp Set and are punched out with the Merry Minis Punch Pack. All of the elements are mounted to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The second tag starts off with a base of Pool Party Card Stock. I used the retired Spiral Edge Punch along the top and took a piece of Island Indigo and punched it with the Scallop Border Punch and adhered it to the back along the bottom. It’s mounted to the base with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The greeting is form the More Merry Messages Stamp Set and is stamped in Early Espresso. The trees are stamped in Pool Party and Island Indigo from the Merry Minis Stamp Set and punched out with the Merry Minis Punch Pack. They too are mounted to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Pool Party and Island Indigo are great colors, especially when paired with Crumb Cake. These tags would go great on a package wrapped with craft paper. I hope that you are inspired by these tags to make some of your own. Thank you very much for dropping in today. Enjoy the rest of your weekend! 🙂

Fab Friday 06

Hello everyone, how are you today? I’m doing well, looking forward to the nice weather we are going to have for the next couple of days. Today’s post is for Fab Friday. This time we have a color challenge…

There are two of my favorites, Midnight Muse and Crumb Cake, in there. The base of my card is Midnight Muse Card Stock. I embossed a piece of More Mustard with the Holiday Frame Textured Impressions Embossing Folder and adhered it to the card with SNAIL. The stamped image and greeting are from the Joyous Celebrations Stamp Set. I stamped the oval in Midnight Muse and the reindeer in Crumb Cake. It’s punched out with the Extra Large Oval Punch and backed with a piece of Cajun Craze that I cut out with the Lots of Tags Sizzlits. The greeting is stamped in Cajun Craze and I flagged the ends before mounting both of them to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. It’s a nice quick simple non-tradiotional holiday card but if you look at it you can see that the More Mustard as a gold and the Cajun Craze as a red. I hope that you enjoyed my card for the Fab Friday Color Challenge. Thank you, as always for visiting and especially for all of your comments! Have a great day!

Freshly Made Sketches #60

A very good morning to you all! I have some awesome news… I got my power back last night after almost 10 days without it! I cannot tell you how happy I am! It’s so nice to sit at my craft desk and not shiver! LOL! I hope that all of the other people get theirs back soon. There are still about 260,000 people without power on Long Island. It really is terrible that it is taking them so long to fix all of this especially when we are lucky enough to have all of these people from other states here helping us. A big thank you to all of those that have come from all over the country! I also want to take a moment and thank all of you for your wonderful comments. You guys are the best!

Now for today’s post which is for this week’s Freshly Made Sketches. This week we have a great simple sketch from Tui…

I was in an exceptionally great mood last night when I made this card so I needed something equally as happy to be the main element. I love the santa from the Jolly Old Saint Nick Stamp Set. He is retired but he reminds me of the Coca Cola santa from years ago. The base of my card is Cherry Cobbler Card Stock. I embossed a piece of Whisper White with the Woodgrain Textured Impressions Embossing Folder using no tabs so it was a little more subtle. The two shorter strips of card stock are Gumball Green and Cherry Cobbler. I used a piece of Silver Glimmer Paper in the middle for some sparkle. The main image is the happy santa from the Jolly Old Saint Nick Stamp Set (Retired). I stamped him in Basic Black and colored him with Blush Blossom, Cherry Cobbler and Pink Pirouette Stampin’ Write Markers. He is cut out with my Paper Snips and adhered to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The greeting is from the same set and is stamped in Gumball Green. I double cut it out with the Labels Collection Framelits Dies and also cut another one in Gumball Green to back it. Stampin’ Dimensionals also hold it to the card. I really love the classic look of the santa and the sparkle of the Silver Glimmer Paper. I hope that you enjoyed this week’s Freshly Made Sketches card. Thank you for stopping by and for your comments. Have a bright and warm day! 🙂

Create with Connie and Mary Color Challenge 226

Good morning! Well, someone in New York must have really annoyed mother nature! We got 3 inches of snow today and some more howling wind! Because hurricane Sandy wasn’t enough! I hope she’s done with us for a while. I stopped home last night and it was 38 degrees in my house, now that is a little cold! Yes, there is still no power. But some more people that I live near got theirs back tonight so maybe tomorrow. 😛

Today’s post is for this week’s Create with Connie and Mary Challenge. This week we have a very nice color combination…

I love Midnight Muse. I wasn’t quite sure what I was going to do. At first I was thinking fall and then I thought no, a Christmas card. I do love non-traditional Holiday colors so this is perfect! The base of my card is Midnight Muse Card Stock. I embossed a piece of Cajun Craze with the Northern Flurry Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. Then I adhered a piece of Midnight Muse 3/8″ Stitched Satin Ribbon around the back with Sticky Strip before I adhered it to the base. The stamped image is from the Snow Swirled Stamp Set and is stamped in Midnight Muse on Whisper White. I stamped one the of the snowflakes in More Mustard and punched it out with the 1/2″ Circle Punch and adhered it with a Stampin’ Dimensional. Some Basic Jewels Rhinestones give it just a little sparkle. The greeting is stamped in Cajun Craze. I backed them both with More Mustard and adhered them to the base with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I love the elegance of the tree and the sparkle from the rhinestones. I hope that you enjoyed my Guest Designer card for this week’s Create with Connie and Mary Challenge. Don’t forget to visit the blog to see what all of the other talented designer have come up with and be sure to check out their Card Create-tions subscription for some great holiday card and gift ideas.

Paper Craft Crew Sketch 15

Happy Wednesday! I hope that you are all well today. Yes, I still have no power, it’s been over a week. Sigh… it’s getting colder and electric would be nice! I hope that all of the other people have found a warm place to stay, I’ll be at Louis’ again. I’m sure that he will eventually tire of me! LOL!

Today’s post is for this week’s Paper Craft Crew.This week’s sketch is pretty neat. I liked it so much that I didn’t change anything! Here it is…

My card starts off with a base of Lucky Limeade Card Stock. On the right side we have a piece of paper from the Festival of Prints Designer Series Paper Stack. On the left side I took a piece of Crumb Cake and cut the edge with the Adorning Accents Edgelits Dies. I then ran it through the Big Shot again with the Delicate Designs Embossing Folder. Both of the background pieces are adhered to the card with SNAIL. The next element to go on the card are the fagged pieces of Lucky Limeade and Cherry Cobbler. The Very Vanilla piece is stamped with the Teeny Tiny Wishes Stamp Set in Crumb Cake and mounted to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I cut the heart out with the Hearts Collection Framelits Dies and then embossed it with the Adorning Accents Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. It too is adhered to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The cute little gingerbread man is from the Scentsational Season Stamp Set and is stamped in Crumb Cake and cut out with the Holiday Collection Framelits Dies. I love the gingerbread man with the heart behind him, he’s a very happy guy! I hope that you enjoyed my card for this week’s Paper Craft Crew Design Crew Challenge.

Mojo 266

Good morning everyone! How are you all doing today? I’m ok, still no power and it’s getting a little chilly here. I’m one of the lucky ones that has a nice warm place to stay. I really feel for the people that don’t. It has been exactly 7 days since we had power at my house. On a positive note I have seen tons of electrical trucks so I’m hoping again that today will be the day. They have come from all over to help, I even saw a few from Joplin Missouri, they had an incredibly tough time with the tornado and it’s great to see them here able to help us now. So a big thanks to everyone that is doing what they can to get us back to a civilized life here in New York. I won’t even comment on the gas issue, that has gotten way out of hand!

Happy time! Today’s post is for this week’s Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge. This week we have a sketch from Julee Tilman…

I’m loving the flagged items as always! My card starts off with a base of Early Espresso Card Stock. I used the Woodgrain Background Stamp inked up in some Illuminate Glimmer Ink. I find that it takes a while to dry but the end result is worth the wait. A flagged piece of Primrose Petals makes the next layer. The next two layers are pieces from the Candlelight Christmas Specialty Designer Paper Pack. The top most layer is backed by a piece of Very Vanilla. I cut a piece of Brushed Silver Card Stock with the Snow Flurry Bigz Die. For a little change of pace I stamped a butterfly from the Papillion Potpourri Stamp Set in Primrose Petals and punched it out with the Elegant Butterfly Punch. Both are mounted to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The greeting is from the More Merry Messages Stamp Set and is stamped in Primrose Petals. I flagged the end and used a Vintage Faceted Designer Button with a piece of Silver Glimmer Paper in the center on the left side. I hope that you enjoyed my Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge card for this week. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate all of your comments, they always make me smile! I hope that you all have a great day and thank you so much for checking in with me today!

Paper Players #120

Monday is here again and I am still without power. I did sneak home during “generator time” to make a card. I have been lucky enough to stay at my friend Louis’ house since Friday. My parents are also high on my awesome list as they took gas cans to the station when they got gas an got me 10 gallons! Like I said… awesome parents! The gas lines here on Long Island are still 2 to 3 hours long. There are so many people still without electricity. For all that we have accomplished in the past decade we still can’t manage to keep the lights on? Oh well, maybe someone will come up with a way soon. My thoughts and prayers are also with all of those that don’t have a house left to get lights in. It’s a tough time right now but we will all get through this and come out better!

Now on to happy stuff. Today’s post is for this week’s Paper Players. This week we have a “Give Thanks” challenge from Ann…

It’s a fitting challenge for our current situation. My card starts off with a base of Whisper White Card Stock. I used the Fancy Fan Textured Impressions Embossing Folder to emboss a piece of Island Indigo for my background. The large image is from the Quint-Essential Flower and is stamped in Pool Party and punched out with the 2 3/8″ Circle Punch. The greeting in the middle is from the Blooming With Kindness Stamp Set and is stamped in Island Indigo and punched out with the 1 1/4″ Circle Punch. The smaller images are from the Circle Circus Stamp Set. The ones that are punched out with the 1 3/4″ Scallop Circle Punch are stamped in Pool Party and the tiny ones are stamped in Island Indigo. I thought that it needed a little more so I used some butterflies cut out with the Beautiful Wings Embosslit in Whisper White. All of the elements are adhered to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I needed a happy card with some brighter colors and I think this fit the bill. I have a lot to be thankful for, my friends and family that have all been great! I’m a very lucky guy and I know it. I hope that you enjoyed my card for this week’s Paper Players Challenge. Thank you so very much for visiting and for all of your comments. You make everything better too! 🙂

Naturals Evergreen Cheer Christmas

Hello peeps! How are we all doing today? Still no power at my house. Sigh… being cold inside the house has lost it’s appeal! LOL! Do you know when you get that internal cold that you just can’t get rid of… I have that. Still, better of than so many others so chin up and and on we go. Today’a post is a nice simple Christmas card. I made it a little while back and the more I look at it the more I like it. It starts off with a base of Naturals White Card Stock. The bottom half of the card uses a piece of Be of Good Cheer Designer Series Paper for the background. I cut out a piece of Crumb Cake and rounded the corners with the 3/16″ Corner Rounder. The tree image is from the Evergreen Stamp Set and is stamped in Early Espresso. The greeting is from the More Merry Messages Stamp Set and is markered in Cherry Cobbler. I used my Stamp-a-ma-jig to line them up. To give the card some dimension I tied some Linen Thread through a Naturals Designer Button and adhered it to the card with a Mini Glue Dot. I love the subtle country feel of the card and it’s a simple card to duplicate. I hope that you enjoyed my card today. Thank you, as always for visiting and I hope that you have a great Sunday! 🙂
