To create the background of my card, I trimmed a piece of smooth white cardstock to 4" x 5 1/4" and embossed the panel with the FSJ Love Stripes Embossing Folder. This is one of my fall-time favorite embossing folders. Embossing folders are a great way to add interest and texture to backgrounds!
The doll images were pieced together to create the girl holding a gift, extra packages, and tree. The sentiment was die cut from glitter cardstock adhered to Fun Foam with Stick It Adhesive. The greeting was adhered along the bottom edge of the card and a Sentiment Strips Christmas strip was adhered under the glitter greeting with foam adhesive.

Welcome to the Mama Elephant October Stampede Blog Hop!
Today I'm sharing a snow globe card and matching gift tags. While there is no video today, this card and tags (plus an additional card and tags) will be shared in a few days, so stay tuned!
The background of the card was created by embossing a Snail Mail frame on a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" panel of smooth white cardstock. I love the look of an embossed frame for subtle interest.
The Snow Globe Bitties were stamped on smooth white cardstock with Hero Arts Intens-ified Ink and colored in with Copic Markers. Once colored the snow globes were die cut with the coordinating die.
The snow globes were adhered to the embossed frame background with foam adhesive squares. Crystal Lacquer was applied along the bottom of each snow globe and Prisma Glitter was added to the adhesive as shown.
The tags were stamped and colored exactly like the snow globes for the card. An additional snow globe was die cut from and stamped with "to" and "from" from the Holiday Messages Stamp Set. A Columbus Circle Tag was die cut from smooth white cardstock and sandwiched between the two snow globes to give the globe a "hanger". Twine was added to each to complete the gift tag!

Hey friends! I've been promising to list my holiday and Christmas cards for sale. This post is going to be ongoing throughout the season so be sure to check back weekly to see what's been added! I also have a couple of extra Halloween cards that I will list at the top, otherwise everything else in this post is Christmas/Holiday. Click HERE for the rest of my handmade cards for sale.

PLEASE make sure that shipping is added to your invoice in Paypal. A bunch of the previous sales didn't have shipping included for whatever reason. $5/card is a steal. I'm asking $3 shipping to cover postage and the bubble mailers I use to ship. If, for whatever reason, shipping doesn't get added when you go to checkout, either email me or I will email an invoice for shipping. I've eaten the cost so far for those that didn't add it but I can't do that anymore. Thanks for understanding!
I'm selling each card for $5. That includes the envelope and the plastic sleeve to protect it. You can add as many as you want to your shopping cart. As long as the package stays under a pound, I will mail them first class. USA shipping only. Sorry, international friends.
Click the "add to cart" button underneath each card you want and check out all at once.

Today I'm sharing this lovely floral sympathy card featuring eighteen of the brand new inks! The inks were used for the Lovely Blossoms images, Floral Vase, sentiments, and even the inked background! With this incredible ink release, there is a color for everything! In addition to full size ink pads, ink cubes are also available!
A soft and subtle background was created by inking Sky Blue ink in a rectangle on the background, concentrating the darkest color down near the bottom and gradually lightening towards the top of the panel.
The vase and florals were assembled and adhered to the background as shown.
A sentiment from the Floral Vase Stamp Set was stamped on smooth white cardstock with Summer Shower Ink. The greeting was die cut with the coordinating die and adhered to the card with foam adhesive. Additional greetings from the set were stamped with Licorice ink, trimmed into thin strips, and adhered to the design with foam adhesive.

Watch the creation of these stencil layering and gnomes cards from start to finish below or click HERE to watch in HD:
Both of my cards today feature stencil layering, meaning more than one stencil was used to create a background or in the case of the second card, to create the focal point and the falling snowflakes! Layering stencils is a great way to add depth and dimension to your projects!
The Gnomes Die was die cut from Hero Hues Peony Cardstock, Hero Hues Azalea Cardstock, Lawn Fawn Fog Cardstock, and smooth white cardstock. A tone-on-tone design was added to the gnome hat with the Gingham Background Stamp and Doll Pink Ink. The nose was colored in with E00, E11, and E13 Copic Markers. Shading was added to the beard with W1, W2, W4, W6 Copic Markers. RV10 and RV11 were used to add shading to the gnome outfit. The gnome was assembled on the background piece as shown. The azalea polka dots were inlaid into the peony outfit. A pom pom was glued to the top of the hat to complete the gnome.
The Christmas Foliage Dies were die cut from Hero Hues Cherry, Kiwi, and Meadow cardstock. The greenery was shaded with YG25 and YG17 Copic Markers and the pieces were tucked around the gnome base as shown. Nuvo Crystal Drops in White Blizzard were applied to the berries as well as the stenciled snowflakes in the background. A white pen was used to add detail to the gnome's nose.
For the stenciled gnomes card I lightly drew in the Gnomes Stencil shapes using the on smooth white cardstock. I will erase the pencil lines as I stencil the images but they serve as a great "place holder" to see what the design will look like. Just like when creating a masked stamped design, we want to stencil the images in the foreground first and work our way back.
Starting with the noses, I erased the pencil lines and then stenciled the noses with Lawn Fawn Peach Fuzz Ink. I traced the nose image on Masking Paper, cut out the mask, and placed it over the inked nose.
Next I erased the beard pencil lines of the gnome in the center and stenciled his beard with Simon Says Stamp Fog Ink. I traced the beard on Masking Paper, cut out the mask, and placed it over the inked beard.
The outfit in the center was inked with Hero Hues Taffy and Fruit Punch Inks. I traced the outfit shape on Masking Paper, cut out the mask, and placed it over the inked outfit. The hat was inked with Fruit Punch Reactive Ink.
A Holiday Greetings Mix 1 greeting was stamped with clear embossing ink and heat embossed with silver embossing powder.
Picket Fence Distress Paint was watered down and splattered over the panel for the illusion of "falling snow".
A Sentiment Strips Everything Winter was trimmed into a thin strip and adhered with foam adhesive to the card panel. Pom poms were glued to the top of the hats to complete the gnomes.
Nuvo Crystal Drops in White Blizzard were added to the center of the snowflakes and scattered throughout the background to finish the card.

A 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" panel of Mermaid Cardstock was inked with Deep Sea and Blue Jay inks using a blending brush. Liquid Stardust was splattered over the background for the look of a winter night sky. I love starting with a colored cardstock card base and inking over the top!
