You know me: I can’t resist to the cute critters! LOL!!! And so my first card features the super fun All Aboard for Christmas stamp set!

I started working on a Bristol paper and stamped a bunch of images with a waterproof ink since I was going to work with Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers. I went for a non traditional shades choosing a color palette to use here and made a simple a little bit splotchy and unperfected watercoloring!

The coordinating dies came so useful to trim very fast all the colored stamps that were arranged with a bit of dimension, of course, on a card base where I created a soft pattern by repeatedly stamping the “Fa-La-La” sentiment from Sentiments of the Season set. Finally the simple heat embossed sentiment from the same All Aboard for Christmas stamp set and a few clear sequins finished this cute card.

My second card is very different, but quick and easy to recreate since I worked with a new amazing Snowfall stencils and beautiful, very elegant sentiments from Sentiments of the Season set.

Once taped well the stencil to a piece of a white cardstock, I made and ombré ink blending using Tumbled Glass, Mermaid Lagoon and Blueprint Sketch Distress inks. I also smooched Faded Jeans Distress ink on another piece of the cardstock, broke apart the sentiment stamp and heat embossed it on three narrow rectangles. I popped up both the snowflake panel and the sentiment on a foam tape just for something little extra and added a few white accents using Nuvo Crystal drops in white color.
