We have a blast creating projects for you and inspiring you to create along with us!! We use whatever we have in our stash and just have fun!

Welcome to Day 1 of our latest 5 for 5 Blog Hop Event. The event runs from December 7th to December 11th and is Christmas inspired.

Today is the final day of our 5 for 5 Holiday Blog Hop Event. We have enjoyed sharing our projects with you this week and hopefully we have inspired you to create some Holiday themed cards, tags, gift cards or whatever you desire! Today's theme is Tree! I recently won a stamp and die set from Tim Holtz so I used it to create my card. I love the dimension from building the layers of the tree!

I stamped the tree on distress watercolor cardstock and water colored the tree and ornaments with distress inks.

 

I applied glossy accents and glitter to add a bit of sparkle. The ornaments have glossy accents on them though it's doesn't show well in the photos. Here's my card.

5 for 5 Holiday Blog Hop Event: Christmas | Day 4

I'm happy to say that the 5 for 5 Gang is back with another fun Blog Hop Event. Who is the 5 for 5 gang you ask? Well, we are 5 crafty friends getting together and creating 5 Holiday themed projects for 5 consecutive days. Our last Blog Event was for Thanksgiving 2015, and we are so excited to be back!! We have a blast creating projects for you and inspiring you to create along with us!! We use whatever we have in our stash and just have fun!

Welcome to Day 4 of our latest 5 for 5 Blog Hop Event. The event runs from December 7th to December 11th and is Christmas inspired.

 Each day of the event we create a project based on a theme. Today's theme is Tag! I knew what I wanted to create for this theme. I love the Prima Doll stamps and I wanted to create a wintery one. So, I gathered some papers from Lawn Fawn and "Valentina" a new to me Julie Nutting Prima Doll Stamp. The Lawn Fawn Petite Paper Packs I used are Snow Day and Peace Joy Love, both of which are retired. Here's my tag.  

 I decided she would hold a wreath so I created one out of Tim Holtz Pine Twine - love this twine!!

The sentiment is embossed with red embossing powder on a piece of vellum. The cuffs of her boots and the pom pom on her hat have liquid applique on them which puffs up once heated and looks like snow!

5 for 5 Holiday Blog Hop Event: Christmas | Day 3

I'm happy to say that the 5 for 5 Gang is back with another fun Blog Hop Event. Who is the 5 for 5 gang you ask? Well, we are 5 crafty friends getting together and creating 5 Holiday themed projects for 5 consecutive days. Our last Blog Event was for Thanksgiving 2015, and we are so excited to be back!! We have a blast creating projects for you and inspiring you to create along with us!! We use whatever we have in our stash and just have fun!

Welcome to Day 3 of our latest 5 for 5 Blog Hop Event. The event runs from December 7th to December 11th and is Christmas inspired.

 Each day of the event we create a project based on a theme. Today's theme is One Layer! I initially struggled with this one because I typically layer on my projects. Then I had an idea to stamp some trees and add some softer trees in the background with second generation stamping. I used Tim Holtz Scribbly Christmas stamp set for my card. Thanks to the MISTI tool, the stamping and embossing was a breeze! Here's my card.

I stamped the trees in the foreground first. Then I stamped the background trees first on a piece of scrap paper and then onto the card - a second generation stamp for a lighter more subtle look.

The gold embossed sentiment is a part of this adorable stamp set.
