1 Sep

Hello Lovely Ladies,

Welcome to My blog. My today’s card for Day 1- #30DayChristmasCardMakingChallenge created by Martin Stone from UK. Each day with different themes. I am very excited to take part in this fun challenge.


Day 1 – Winter Winds :
Everyone can take part in this Challenge and play with what you have.  I used Stampin’ Up! ‘ Life is beautiful’ and ‘ Christmas Gleaming’  Stamp sets.
Here is the card,

All the Stampin’ Up! products are available at my Online Store here.

I used Whisper White as my base card followed by the layers Balmy Blue, again Balmy blue stamped my image in Versamark Ink and add white embossing powder , then used my heat tool to melt the powder. 
I used the dots on the background using Versamark and Balmy Blue ink and for the Snow effect I added some White Embossing paste on top of the tree and on the small bird house. I stamped the birdhouse and the sentiment in smoky slate Stamping’ Classic ink. 
I used some scrap piece of Whisper White Cardstock and added some White Shimmery embossing paste on top of it. I decorated inside of the card using some snow flakes stamp set using smoky slate and Balmy blue ink.

I used Cardstock Balmy Blue and Whisper White for layering and added little scrap pieces of Balmy Blue and smoky slate. As a final touch I finished my card using the Elegant Faceted Gems and White Polka dot ribbon. 
I hope you like my today’s card.

For today’s project ,its for the Hop Abroad InstaH For today’s project ,its for the Hop Abroad InstaHop,  I created an elegant yet heartfelt card using a combination of dry embossing and heat embossing to add depth and texture. I started with a Secret Sea base card, which instantly gave the design a rich and sophisticated look.
The main focus is the embossed layer made with the Love 3D Embossing Folder, adding beautiful dimension and softness to the background. To enhance this, I layered heart die-cut pieces from the Made with Love bundle-such a versatile set and perfect with Valentine’s Day just around the corner.

Today’s Hop was with the 2024 Artisan Design Team Today’s Hop was with the  2024 Artisan Design Team members, coming together as The Piccadilli Players. This time, we’re playing along with a Sketch Challenge, and I have to say… it was so much fun to create with this one!

For my card, I reached for the Brushed with Petals Suite. I love how versatile this suite is - it makes mixing and matching effortless. I used one of the stamp sets along with the die-cut pieces to build the main focal elements, adding lovely layers and texture. For the finishing touch, I chose a sentiment from the coordinating stamp set, which tied everything together beautifully.
