Happy Day everyone!   Make it a great day!

My card for the day is created using Stampin’ Up! Feels Like Frost Specialty Designer Series Paper and Stampin’ Up! Toil Christmas Stamp Set.  It made a beautiful card.  I am rather pleased with the color scheme.  Instead of your typical red cardinal, I decided to make mine a bluebird.  Do not know if the color is right for a true bluebird, but then he is my bird and that his color shades of blue from  Stampin’ Up!  Stampin’ Blend markers in Light and Dark Balmy Blue.  It is amazing how different the color looks once a picture is taken.

My challenges are with Allsorts Challenge — theme  Gold or Silver

Craftyhazelnut’s Patterned Paper Challenge.  

I had intended to join another also but when I got my card finished I realized I had put it together incorrectly for the challenge  — oh! well another day.

Don’t you just love this DSP?  When my stamping friend Linda  Richenberg said it was gorgeous, in my mind I disagreed, but after using it I have to agree with her, it is beautiful and makes for a beautiful card.

I used a Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock base with a Stampin’ Up! Night of Navy card stock mat for the Stampin’ Up! Feels Light Frost DSP.  Card cuts are at the end of this post.  The layers are adhered together using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  

 

I used the “Hello” stamp from the Stampin’ Up! Good Morning Magnolia Stamp Set stamping it using Versa Mark ink and then heat embossing using Stampin’ Up! Whisper White Embossing Powder and my heat tool.  The silver diagonal square is cropped from a panel of Stampin’ Up! Silver Foil Sheets and embossed using the Stampin’ Up! Subtle Embossing Folder.  It is adhered to a Stampin’ Up! Night of Navy card stock mat and then popped on the card front after the banner is adhered in place. 

 The bird ( I won’t call it a cardinal since I colored it blue) from the Stampin’ Up! Toile Christmas Stamp Set is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink on a Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock panel, then cropped using the Stampin’ Up! Christmas Cardinal Dies.  It is colored using Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Blends Markers in Light and Dark Balmy Blue.  The beak is colored using the Stampin’ Up! Light Mango Melody Stampin’ Blends Marker.

A panel of the Feels Like Frost is adhered to a Whisper White panel and then trimmed using a strip of Night of Navy card stock.  The sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Free As A Bird Stamp Set is stamped in Night of Navy ink. The panels are adhered to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Ink.  By using the Feels Like Frost panel for the sentiment you are able to see what the entire panel looks like and just how beautiful it is.

The Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope gets a panel of the Feels Like Snow DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by today.   I hope you will join me on my stamping journey as I share my cards with you each day.  My hope and wish are that you will be inspired to create amazing creations yourself.

It’s called the Christmas Time is Here Suite and it’s pretty amazing!  just look at that DSP, isn’t it gorgeous and here’s hoping the die fits the rose on the DSP! The dies do fit the roses on one of the panels of the DSP.  The dies fit perfectly.    This suite was used by several demonstrators October 5 during World Card Making Day and the cards were gorgeous.  You should see if you can find them on Pinterest, they are so beautiful.
