Most Wonderful Time of The Year

 

Welcome to Week 12 of The Art With Heart Heart Of Christmas blog hop. This week our host is Sharon Davern.

This week I have decided to finally ink up and open up the Classic Cloche bundle on page 22 of the current mini and I have to say I love it. But then I say that about a lot of the Stampin Up products!

 

For my starting point I chose a piece of DSP from the returning Heartwarming Hugs and then this dictated the colours I chose for the stamped village image. First off I stamped the outline in Basic Grey, next the fill was stamped using Pear Pizzazz but stamped off, and finally Basic Grey again but also stamped off. I've then die cut the image using the corresponding dies. This image has then been popped up on a piece of Shimmery White cardstock that I have stamped the Cloche on in Basic Grey and also silver embossed some stars from Snowflake Wishes. Then the Cloche has also been die cut using the corresponding die. 

Here is a close up of the silver stars as they arent so easy to see in the picture above.
 

The Cloche base has been die cut from the Silverest of the Silver foils and adhered to a piece of Mossy Meadow cardstock.  Finally the sentiment is also from the Classic Cloche stamp set and I have used a stitched rectangle die . Finally a bow using the Simply Elegant Trim and a couple of Holiday Rhinestones to finish it off.

Peaceful Greetings

 

Welcome to week 4 of the Art With Heart Heart of Christmas blog hop where some of the team members share their latest Christmas creations. This week our host is Tina Gillespie.

Once again I have chosen to use some of the new products from the upcoming July to December mini which features lots of new beautiful Christmas products along with some other Fall and Thanksgiving (Stampin' Up! is US based) products. My card this week features the Peaceful Cabin bundle.

 

For the background of this card I have used the emboss resist technique using one of the stamps from the Snowflake Wishes set in white embossing powder and then using Blending Brushes and Misty Moonlight for the skyline. The cabin is cut using the dies from the Peaceful Cabin bundle. 

 

The trees have been stamped using the matching stamp set and then die cut with the corresponding dies. I have then applied some Wink Of Stella to the trees for some shimmer.

Its a bit hard to tell from any of the photos and it is also hard to capture in a photo but the foreground has been die cut using one of the Basic Borders dies but has been cut using the Snowy White Velvet paper to try and emulate snow on the ground. It's a shame you cant feel this paper as its lovely and smooth. The greeting is from Tidings and Trimmings and I have coloured some of the Neutrals Twine to coordinate.
