Moose Wonderful Time!

These little moose from Paperie Ink stamps are the most adorable!!! They are perfect for creating a sweet scene with birch trees!

I used these products for my mini slimline design:

• Paperie Ink Moose Wonderful stamps
• Technique Tuesday Birch Tree BG die-retired

I began my mini slimline with a 6 1/2 x 4 card base.

For my background, I first die cut the birch trees from Bristol Smooth cardstock and trimmed another piece to fit behind and inked it with broken china, tumbled glass, and antique linen. I then die-cut another piece of Bristol Smooth with a stitched curve and stamped the sentiment on the bottom piece.

Next, I stamped the moose and bird, colored them with copic markers, and fussy cut them out. I finished the card by adding them with foam tape and sprinkling some blue jewels!

Thank you for visiting with me today!

Merry and Bright Penguins!

I can’t resist these cute little Christmas penguins from Paperie Ink stamps for a merry and bright mini slimline card!

I used these products for my mini slimline design:

• Paperie Ink Kebin the Penguin stamps
• MFT Itsy Bitsy Polka Dot BG stamp
• Hello Bluebird Typed Christmas stamps
• Hello Bluebird Holly and Pine dies
• Mama Elephant Big Merry and Bright die

I began my mini slimline with a 6 1/2 x 4 card base.

For the background, I trimmed a piece of Bristol Smooth a little smaller than my card front, inked it with worn lipstick and spun sugar, and splattered with white paint and gold shimmer spray. While that dried, I inked some scraps of Bristol Smooth with rustic wilderness, mowed lawn, and bundled sage and cut out with pine boughs.

I then stamped another piece of Bristol Smooth with the small polka dot BG stamp with black ink and cut out with the ‘Merry and Bright’ and then 3 more from thick black cardstock. I then layered the black pieces and then offset the polka dot one on the top.

Next, I stamped the penguins, colored them with copic markers, and fussy cut them out. To put the card together, I arranged the pine boughs behind the ‘Merry and Bright’ and used foam tape to place the penguins around the large sentiment. I finished with a sentiment heat embossed in white on a small banner and sprinkled some red jewels around!

Thank you for stopping by with me!

These little adorable Woodland Ornaments from Paperie Ink are perfect to hang anywhere on your cards!

I used these products to create my slimline design:

• Paperie Ink Woodland Ornaments stamps
• Pinkfresh Studio Diamond Tiles Background stamp
• Hello Bluebird Hollly and Pine dies

I began my slimline with an 8 1/2 x 3 1/2 card base.

For the background, I first trimmed a piece of Bristol Smooth a little smaller than my card front, inked it with worn lipstick and spun sugar, and splattered it with some white paint. While that dried, I then inked some more pieces of Bristol Smooth with rustic wilderness, mowed lawn, and bundled sage, and cut the out with the pine boughs.

I then created the JOY by heat embossing the plaid in red on a sheet of Bristol Smooth and then cut it out using my Cameo Silhouette.

Next, I stamped the ornaments, colored them with copic markers, and fussy cut them out. I then heat embossed the strings in gold. To put the card together I layered the pine boughs behind the JOY raised with foam tape and hung the ornaments from each letter and sprinkled a few gold domes around!

Merry Everything!

I love these oversized sentiments from Paperie Ink stamps to create your own background for a fun card like I did on this Christmas slimline card!

I used these products to create my slimline design:

• Paperie Ink Giant Holiday 2 stamps
• Paperie Ink Fla La La Mingo stamps
• Sunny Studio Scalloped Tag Circle dies
• Sunny Studio Scalloped Tag Square dies
• Sunny Studio Large Stitched Circle dies
• Trinity Slimline Stitched Card Panels & Windows dies

I began my slimline with an 8 1/2 x 3 1/2 card base.

For the background, I trimmed a piece of pattern paper a little smaller than my card front and adhered to the card. I then die cut the stitched panel from Bristol Smooth cardstock, inked it with kitsch flamingo and spun sugar, and repeatedly stamped the sentiment.

The tags I cut out from the Bristol Smooth cardstock and cut 2 stitched circles. I taped off the square tag and inked it with salvaged patina along with the 2 stitched circles. I popped them up with foam tape and added some black twine to each.

Next, I stamped the flamingos and leaves, colored them with copic markers, and fussy cut them out. I then stamped the oversized sentiment one more time using pink ink, cut it out, and adhered it with a leave on the square tag. The other images I added to the circle tags and finished with a few pink jewels!

I always love to use non tradition colors for Christmas cards and you can try it on your next card!

Thank you!
