Hello everyone! Helen is here. Today, I have a CAS Holiday card to share with you all. I know we are just stepping into Fall Season, but I thought it is a good time to start the Holiday projects, too.

We receive Christmas cards and gifts in the Holiday season, it is always nice to have some thank you cards ready to send to express our gratitude for their kindness and love.

It is very simple to create this card.

I started with stamping the wreath from Joy Stamp Set on white cardstock using VersaFine Clair – Green Oasis. I stamped it multiple times. After stamping the wreaths, I added some red dots on the wreaths for the berries using craft stylus and VersaFine Clair – Glamorous.

I dried all the stamped images with craft heater and then fussy cut them with micro-tips scissors.

On a A2 white card, I stamped the stripes from the Joy Stamp Set using VersaFine Clair – Nocturne (black) and my Mini MISTI.

Then, I stamped the thanks sentiment from the Thanks Stamp Set on a white cardstock with VersaFine Clair – Glamorous. I trimmed the sentiment in to a banner strip that would fit on top of the wreath.

I added the wreath on the card with 3D foam tape and then I added the sentiment banner strip on top of the wreath with adhesive glue.

It is done. This Holiday Thank You Card is quick and easy to mass-produce. I hope this inspire you to start your Holiday projects.

Thank you so much for stopping by today. Have a wonderful day!

Hello coffee loving friends… Today I am joining Coffee Loving Cardmakers team for the Sponsor Solo where we are showcasing stamp and die from amazing super sponsors for our coffee/tea/cocoa cardmaking community.

Today, we are at Coffee Loving Cardmakers showcasing the new Super Coffee Die & Stamp Bundle from Lil’ Inker Designs.

This is one adorable and fun stamp set! I love the super coffee cup image and all the fun encouraging sentiments for coffee lovers. Don’t you want to have a cup like that???

My did some watercoloring on this card. First, I stamped the cup on a watercolor paper with VersaFine Onyx Black Ink and I colored the white space with Yellow Arteza Real Brush Pen and waterbrush. After the watercolor paint dried, I cut it out using one of the stitched from Catherine Pooler Designs.

I added the background panel on an A2 Blue Card with dries-clear adhesive glue.

I stamped one more cup on another watercolor with VersaFine Onyx Black, colored with with Blue and Read Arteza Real Brush Pen and waterbrush. After the watercolor paint dried, I cut it with the matching die.

I stamped one of the sentiments with VersaFine Clair Tulip Red on a white cardstock and I trimmed it into a banner. I added both sentiment and cup with 3D foam tape.

My card is done… I hope you all enjoy it.

Hello everyone! How are you? I hope you all have been having so much fun this Summer. We just came back from our first camping trip of this Summer 2018. We are so looking forward for more… I am refreshed and ready to get crafty again!

Today, I have a card for a coffee lover that I created using Graciellie Design – Coffee & Flowers Digital Stamp, Leisure Arts Premium Coloring Pencils, and Our Daily Bread Design Die Sets.

I printed the image and sentiment on white heavyweight cardstock using inkjet printer. I cut the flower cup image using ODBD – Double Stitched Ovals Dies and I cut one of the sentiments from this digital stamp set using ODBD – Double Stitched Rectangles Dies.

I colored the flowers cup with Leisure Arts Premium Colored Pencils. I used 2 shades of each colors and then blended them using the white color pencil. These pencils are easily blended! They are one of my favorite coloring mediums.

I added the Create Paper patterned paper on an A2 White Card with dries-clear adhesive glue. And then I added the flower cup panel on it with the same glue. Next, I added the sentiment on the card. I saw the sentiment covered one of the flower, so I fussy cut just that flower, colored it, and added on top of the sentiment. Now, it looks like the flower overlapping with the sentiment.

I embellished the card with some of the white pearl self-adhesive. The card is done.

And I am joining the fun coloring challenge at The Daily Marker 30 Day Coloring Challenge this week, I missed the first week becuase we were at camping trip.

Thank you so much for stopping by and I hope you all have a sunny, colorful, and fabulous day!
