I liked this pine sprig when it came out. I thought I would use it a lot, but only managed to create a couple of cards with it. I decided to try a different technique with the ornaments. I used foil paper and I embossed it with silver and gold embossing powders. I do like the results. I stamped the pine branch over and over to get the look of a full Christmas tree.
I used both Ornamental Pine and Christmas Messages stamp sets to create this card.
Well, I guess it is about time I get back to my blogging. I have been busy teaching stamping classes, teaching 2nd graders and volunteering with an after school homework club. Now it's time to share some stamping.
I created several cards with Stampin' Up! stamps that weren't Christmas stamps. This one is not obvious because it does use Christmas stamps from the Stampin' Up! holiday catalog.
I stamped the Apothecary label in gold on Cherry Cobbler card stock and then embossed it with gold.
I also stamped the same stamp on Whisper White with Cherry Cobbler ink and cut out only the banner. Then I embossed the Sentiment on it again using the gold ink and the gold embossing powder.
I Stamped the Wondrous Wreath, die cut it and layered it onto the label with dimensionals. Then I layered the sentiment, also using dimensionals. I think it looks rather elegant and like the way it turned out. Supplies
