This is a Peek A Boo holiday gift shop card. Toy shops and craft stores are two of my favorite places. For this gift shop, I have created a behind-the-scene Peek A Boo effect, and it includes holiday greetings and elves busy with crafting holiday toys. The inspiration came from ig@delandartie and the Hero Arts Gift Shop project. It is truly a fun card to make. I used Copic to color the entire panel and then died cut the window using Hero arts Door fancy die. Then I traced the window onto another white card stock which will be the back panel for the gift shop. After that I stamped some elves images and holiday greeting. Once the images were stamped then color them with Copic. I also traced and stamped extra copy. Next time when I make this card, I will have reference to follow.

I always enjoy making Christmas cards with a snowflake as a center piece. For the card below, I used the color pink because I haven't seen a lot of people use pink for Christmas cards yet, and I wanted to try something new. I love how the word "Merry" contrasts with the snowflake. First, I created a background using a very light pink cardstock. I blended the cardstock with some Distress Oxide ink in Kitsch Flamingo, Spun Sugar, and Seedless Preserves using a blending brush. Then I embossed the blended cardstock with a snowflake embossing folder. After completing the background, I die cut two sets of snowflakes from Lawn Fawn out of some lavender and white cardstock. I layered the white cardstock snowflake with the lavender cardstock snowflake. I also die cut the word “ MERRY” and added glossy a accent on the "MERRY" for the shine. The final step is putting the layered snowflake on the center of the cardstock. I also added some white dots on the card itself using a gel pen and some crystal beads for some bling. The layered snowflake Christmas card is then completed.

BELIEVE in the magic of Christmas with a country village in a starlight ombré background11/23/2021 First, to create the background, I blended the distress oxide ink onto the card, spritzed some water on the card, and then padded it dry with a paper tower to create a "water marks" effect. For the sentiment, I stamped the "believe" using distress oxide ink in Wilted Violet and then went over the letters with the Versamark watermark ink, to make it sticky. After that, I heat embossed the text with clear embossing powder. After I heat embossed the word " believe," I die cut it out, along with the house and wreath below. I decided to add some more stars in the sky. Unfortunately, while I was gluing the wreath and the star, I noticed that the glue stained the background. Because of the staining issue, I changed the adhesive to Sticky peck instead of glue. To make the house more interesting and more detailed, I added some pieces of die cut for some additional dimension. This is the final look of the card. I really like how the color of the word "Believe" matches the background. As well as the look of the house with the star wreath.

I am sharing this whimsical Christmas card with a rainbow, fluffy clouds, a Christmas tree and an adorable unicorn. The stamp set I used is a Simon Says stamp from the STAMPtember collaboration release with Clearly Besotted. I have previously created another card using the same stamp set. You can see it here. This is a simple and easy to make card, and I love the look of pastel. Hope you like it! For this card, I wanted everything to stay in soft tones so all the Copics I chose were very light in color. You can see the color numbers are listed below. Once the coloring was finished, I die cut all the pieces, making the card ready for assembly.

This Christmas card is set in a very whimsical scene. The cute unicorn looks just like a stuffed animal, which I absolutely love. The rainbow, the fluffy clouds and the Christmas tree in the circular card goes really well with the white 3D snowflakes in the background. First, I stamped the rainbow, clouds, Christmas tree and animals with the VersaFine Clair ink in Nocturne, and then colored them with Copic markers. At this point, I have not decided which stamps will go on the card, so I colored them all. I have saved some stamped animals for another card. For the background, I have decided to leave it white and embossed it using the Stampin Up Wintry Snowflake embossing folder. Since the folder was designed to be 3" by 6", I embossed the top and the bottom sections of the panel individually to cover the whole panel. Before I assembled the card, I added some foam tape on the stamped items to add some dimension. Then I put all of the components together.

This is an adorable wintery unicorn clear stamp set from Whimsy stamps. Who doesn't like snowflakes and unicorns? I think we all dream of catching snowflakes with a unicorn friend! First, I stamped the images with the VersaFine Clair Nocturne ink, and then colored them with Copic markers. For the background, I blended the panel using the distress oxide ink in the color Wilted Violet with a blending brush, and then splashed some white dots on the panel using white acrylic paint as snow. After that, I positioned the girl and unicorn on the panel, and then I arranged the snowflakes to make it look like the snow was about to fall on their tongues. I chose the "Magic of Christmas" sentiment for the card from the Tim Holtz's tiny text Christmas stamp set. The sentiment was heat embossed with white embossing powder and then cut into strips.

This is another card that I made using a snowflake background stamp for a winter scene. This time I used embossed glitter and Sapphire jewels to add more bling to the card. First, I used ink blending on the panel with a distress oxide blueprint sketch ink pad. Starting from all of the edges, I blended and slowly lighted the ink up towards the center. When the panel dried completely, I stamped the snow flurry stamp using a watermark ink pad and then heat embossed the panel with the Wow! silver embossed glitter. I chose three sentiments for the card from the Tim Holtz's tiny text Christmas stamp set. The sentiments were heat embossed with white embossing powder and then cut into strips. I then heat embossed some extra sentiments to save them for later. Snowfall turns the season into sparkling winter. It is a magical time to dash through the snow and walk in a winter wonderland.

Time to start making Christmas card. As always I am running behind. This year I started out using green color and forest scene for my first choice. I love the look of the card. Choose a green color that was darker than the color of cardstock, and blended the all edges with a blending brush. Then created pine bough texture using an embossing folder. 運用松枝3D壓凸版做背景 Gently brush the pine bough texture using Delicate GoldenGlitz ink pad. 壓出圖案後用delicata golden glitz金色印台在松枝表面輕輕刷上 Die cut the stacked Merry die with red and gold color cardstock.

Then it is ready for assembly. 切好的松樹燙上frosted crystal ,之後就剩組裝了。 Before I started assemble, I decided to splash some white acrylic paint to add more snowy effect. And then added some white dots using a white gelly roll pen. This card shows lots of shine and detailed texture.

I bought a slider die from Spellbinder when it was on sale during the Black Friday sale and I can't wait to try it. I wanted to make a card that slides out and reveal a sentiment that says "Happy Birthday" at the same time. I will be making multiple cards so first, cut out several card fronts and sliding pieces to be used later. Then, I ran the card front through the embossing folder to create a 3D floral print. On the back of card front, I put down double adhesive tape at the folded line, which will be glued to the sliding piece to make a sliding motion. When you flip it over to the front, you will see the center of the card front rise when you pull the sliding piece from the top. Then it is time to add the white cardstock as backing. Then I started to stamp the leaves and flowers using Altenew and heat embossing. I heat embossed the vase on vellum using Altenew vase set. I have also inked all of the corners of the card front using a blending brush and some distress oxide ink, "wilted violet." It is the same for the purple card, onece the inking is completed, then it is time to add the white cardstock as backing. On the sliding piece, I have glued the tab that was from the card front onto the sliding piece, so when the tab is pulled closed, it looks like a complete card front. On the back of sliding piece, I decided to add an arrow to show the piece can be pulled up. Once all the card base is complete, it is time to assemble the vase and flower. In no time, the card is completed.

I always wanted to make an ornament card which can actually be used to decorate the Christmas tree. I got this opportunity when I got a monthly kit from Hero Arts. And let the fun begin... I used the ornament die from the kit to cut out the frame in red, the foam in white and the acetate for the shaker card. I have glued the acetate onto the red frame and glued two foam together to add thickness. I have also painted the inner side of the foam with white acrylic paint to cover the gap, which could hopefully prevent the shaker flakes to from getting stuck in the gap. For the shaker, I used the clear distress mica flakes to mimic snowflakes. After I added the mica, I adhered the sentiment piece onto the background of the ornament. Then, I added a bow on the top of the ornament using red twine. To add more accents on the front of the ornament, I used the poinsettia and holly leaves die from Sizzix Funky Festive dies set. Then I embossed a 3D winter snowflake for the card base. I want the ornament to be detachable, so I added a magnetic thin sheet on the back of the ornament and the back of the snowflake card base as well. Once the magnetic sheet is adhered, the ornament can stay on the card without any glue. This is not only a shaker card, but can also be used as an actual Christmas ornament.

I made some ATC last month using snowflake as focal point. I really like the look and had make some extra background and snowflakes for later to use. This is one of the card that I made using the same look as ATC. If you are interested in white on white ATC, it can be found here. For this card, the only different from ATC is adding more individual snowflake and jewel pieces from Pinkfresh Studio. Supplies:

I have decided to use all the snowflake dies that I own to make a greeting card for this holiday. It sure is fun to make snowflake cards. First, using speckled egg distress oxide color to blend out evenly on Neenah solarwhite cardstock and die cut into a large snowflake. Second, I use snowflake stencil and pearlescent embossing paste to create a background. Then, splash some ink on the background using speckled egg distress oxide ink. I have decided to add dimension on the snowflake by adding one more layer of snowflake die-cut using white cardstock. I brushed on the Wink of Stella for more bling. And then adding two layers of foam adhesive to the center piece of the snowflake to add even higher dimension. After adding foam adhesive, place the piece at the center of the snowflake. Finally, die-cut sentiment "Tis the season" twice and glue them together to add more depth and finish off with light blue jewel on both the snowflake and the background.

I did something very different for this card. All the hexagon pieces are from the advertisement that I collected over the year. Some of the hexagons were pieces that I stamped imperfectly and was going to go to the trash bin. But since it is small enough, I was able to repurpose it. I am glad it turned out to be great. These are the papers that are ready for upcycle. After cutting them out, I put all the pieces in place one layer at a time. Sandwich between the acrylic block. The benefit of doing a sandwich is that you're able to reduce the chance of pieces moving around. Moving one layer without moving everything else all together will be easier if you make a sandwich. Once I decided on the look, I started to adhesive from the bottom layer and stuck it on white cardstock. After that, move on to the middle layer, then upper layer with foam tape and heat embossed sentiment. In the last minute, I decided to add velum paper leaves to add more depth. Then the card is complete.

This is a pair of thank you cards that I made for charity. With so much going on in the world, we have so much to thank for. I always wanted to make cards using either hexagon stamp or die. Finally I got a stamp and die set from Pinkfresh Studio. For these two cards, I used just the hexagon die and saved the stamp set for some other time. For the preparation, I have made some background choices using embossing folder and sentiment stripe for the card. In addition, I have die-cut some flowers that I plan to use on the card. I have not decided to use which one yet. Once I have everything ready, all I need is to die cut the floral cardstock with hexagon die and start the assembly. Here are the final look for the cards.
