Next I did a Christmas card as part of a Christmas in July Challenge on the Cricut MB. I saw a Suspension card on Splitcoaststampers and thought I would give it a shot. Since I don't have circle punches I just made my pattern on DS. I used the cuttlebug embossing folder snowflake and Paisley, which I received yesterday from MelissaMissesTX! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Okay more detail ...
The card base is barn red card stock I got at Big Lots, I don't know the name brand. I inked with white Colorbox Cat Eye ink.
The large mat is a paisley sheet from My Mind's Eye Magnolia pack.
The middle mats are DCWV pink, sanded and inked with Color box cat eye ink, fuschia.
I used DCWV light blue card stock and sanded after embossing with the snowflake folder for the small mats and inked with Color box cat eye ink terracotta.
I used Christmas Cheer for the snowman. I cuttle bugged his scarf with the Paisley folder and used black scribblers for his eyes, mouth and buttons and orange for his carrot nose. I also inked around the bottom of the snowman with Colorbox Cat Eye ink gray.
The sentiment stamp is a Studio G and the snowflake stamp is from the Inkadinkadoo Warm Wishes holiday set.
The snowflakes are a Paper Studio punch and I used a glitter pen on them.
For suspending the circle I used dental floss.

I love your cupcake and snowmen cards!! (Even with the "ugly" paper!! lol)
ReplyDeleteThe black and white card is not horrible...maybe it needs some bling. I love black and white cards but sometimes they are just hard to make them pop. I think the design is pretty so all is not lost....*me handing you a tissue*
