Christmas Hodge-Podge HSS453

Hello stampers!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments Photo Inspiration Challenge for December.  Photo inspirations are a favorite of mine.  I drew from the colors in the bottom right photo.  
I used a ton of different products, current and retired, for this card.  That's why I named it Hodge-Podge Christmas.  See my supply list below for everything used.



This card has a ton of shimmer to it, which is hard to pick up in the photographs.  I brushed Tsukineko Champagne Mist ink over the background DSP after I embossed it with my Snowflake Sky EF.  I also ran my Encore gold embossing ink around the edges of the card to give a little antique feel.  
I used a sponge dauber and dabbed the Champagne Mist ink on just about every element on the card, except the pinecones, gold branches, and ribbon.  Everything else has a nice shimmer to it!
The snowflakes are especially pretty with the shimmer on them.  
The two trees are from a paper pack called He's the Man that was in the Summer Mini a few years back.  I thought these two little ready diecut trees fit in nicely here.  



Here's a list of my supplies.....
Stamps: Poinsettia Petals (sentiment inside the card)
Paper: Winter Meadow DSP, Black, Mossy Meadow, Cherry Cobbler, White, Gold Foil, Pecan Pie
Ink: Gold craft ink & Champagne Mist paint/ink (both are non-SU items), Cherry Cobbler, Mossy Meadow
Accessories: Snowflake Sky EF, Snowfall Thinlits dies, Poinsettia dies, He's the Man DSP accessories, Christmas Pinecone dies, Drusy embellishments, gingham ribbon, gold cord, Cherry Cobble and Gold ribbon

 Thanks for taking a peek and have a blessed day!

Harrison Is One Happy Camper! ~ GDP472


Hello Stampers!  Today is my great nephew's 1st birthday!  We'll be celebrating tomorrow with a party and the theme is One Happy Camper.  I just HAD to make a card to commemorate the occasion and this is what I came up with!  I used the colors and layout (sort of) from the CASE the Designer Challenge at Global Design Project.  
This was a fun card to make and while I know that little Harrison won't appreciate the card, his mama will!

I stamped the ONE from 25 Days with versamark ink on the base of the card and embossed it with white embossing powder.  I brushed some Coastal Cabana over the embossed words with my blending brush.  I stamped the camper on watercolor paper and embossed it with black embossing powder.  I watercolored the camper and fussy cut it out.  I did the same with the balloons.  I used the number 1 from one of the stamps from 25 Days, inked it in Pecan Pie ink and stamped it one white cardstock.  I punched it out with a 1" circle punch.  The Happy Camper was stamped in Memento Black ink on a scrap of white.  I angle cut both ends.
I added a couple of circles of Linen Thread behind the 1 circle and adhered everything to the card.  The 1 and Happy Camper are popped up on dimensionals.  I finished the card off with some Dots for Days in a coordinating color.



Here's a list of my supplies.....
Stamps: Glamper Greetings, 25Days
Ink: Coastal Cabana, Pecan Pie, Crumb Cake, Gray Granite, Lemon Lolly, Misty Moonlight, Versamark, Memento Black
Paper: White, Watercolor
Accessories: Dots for Days, Linen Thread, 1" Circle Punch, Watercolor brush, Blending Brush, White EP, Black EP
