CCMC Saturday Blog Hop: Gold and White Christmas Cards

Hello everyone! Welcome to another Saturday blog hop with the Create with Connie and Mary designers! This week we are featuring Christmas cards created using the colors white and gold! I am your stop after the fabulous Debbie Henderson!

White and gold are such elegant colors together and make fantastic Christmas cards! Here is what I did!

• Card base is Whisper White
• On a panel of vellum, stamp the trees image from Wonderland using VersaMark ink and emboss using white emboss powder
• Adhere panel to card base being careful to put the glue on the embossed image (on the back side)
• On a strip of vellum, stamp the greeting using VersaMark ink and emboss using gold emboss powder then flag the end
• Cut a strip of Winter Wonderland designer vellum and flag the end
• Adhere the two strips to the card putting the adhesive where the snowflake/button will go
• Adhere a wooden snowflake element to the card
• Thread a piece of linen thread through a gold basic metal button and tie a bow and adhere to snowflake center

I hope you are enjoying all the great ideas that have been shared this month at the Create with Connie and Mary November edition! It's now time to send you on to see what the fabulous Connie Babbert has created! Thanks for stopping by and have a super day!

The Stamp Review Crew: Wonderland

Hello everyone! Welcome to another fabulous blog hop from the The Stamp Review Crew designers! This time we are featuring projects made using the beautiful stamp set, Wonderland! I am your stop after the fabulous Sue Plote!

This was a stamp set that I had to get right away! I just loved that trees image! And it is perfect for making quick and simple cards! I think it will still look good for winter cards even when Christmas is over. So here is what I came up with...

• Card base is Mint Macaron
• Stamp the trees image several times onto the card base using Mint Macaron ink
• Stamp the snowflakes image onto the card base using VersaMark ink
• Stamp the greeting onto a strip of Whisper White card stock using Tip Top Taupe ink and flag the end
• Cut the scallop part off of a piece of Tip Top Taupe dotted scallop ribbon and adhere to the back of the strip then adhere to card with dimensionals
• Add a few rhinestones to card

And there you have it! Time to send you on to see what at the fabulous Mike Funke has created! Thanks for stopping by and have a super day!

Silent Night of Navy

Hello everyone! I am so glad that the weekend is almost here! I thought that yesterday would be a little more relaxing than it ended up being. I won't bore you with all the details but it involved getting new phones and then trying to remember all the passwords to get everything to work right. UGH! I still can't get my email to work right on my phone... But tonight I get to see the shoebox gals again. It's been awhile and I'm looking forward to that! I don't have a project ready and I won't have one for tonight. Let's hope they forgive me ;)

Today's card is a pretty easy one. I love how the gold really makes it all so regal!

• Card base is Night of Navy
• Adhere a strip of Wonderland designer vellum to the card base putting the adhesive in the center part of the vellum so it will not show
• Stamp the trees image from the Wonderland stamp set onto a piece of Whisper White using Night of Navy ink
• Stamp the sentiment at the bottom of the panel using the same ink
• Tie a piece of gold taffeta ribbon around the panel and then adhere to card with dimensionals

Super easy!
