Christmas Placeholders

Thought I would share with you the Christmas Dinner Placeholders I made for our local hospitals' Long Term Care Unit.
The inspiration for these placeholders came from libbystampz.com.
As you can see I made quite a few.  Here is a couple close up pictures.

New Years Theme Blog Hop

Welcome to Team Stamp It Groups New Years Theme Blog Hop!
Whether you hopped onto my blog from one of my teammates or started with my blog, I'm awfully glad you hopped by.
It's hard for me to believe that Christmas is almost here and another year is nearing its end.  Where has the year gone?
With the busy holiday season upon us, I knew I had to make a card that would be simple and quick to make.  This card fits that bill, I hope you enjoy it!
The card front was made using the Softly Falling Textured Impressions embossing folder that had ink applied to the inside of the folder on one side and then ran through the Big Shot with a piece of Whisper White cardstock.  The trees are from the Winter Woods bundle.  "Happy" is from the Merry Christmas Thinlits dies and "New Year" is from the Timeless Tidings stamp set.
The pine trees on the inside of the card are also from the Timeless Tidings stamp set.
I hope you enjoyed visiting my blog and looking at my project.  I would love it if you would leave a comment or subscribe to my blog.  As an added incentive, if you leave a comment on my blog and include your name and #stampitcontest in your comment, your name will be entered into a drawing to win the 
Lots of Happy Card Kit.  The Lots of Happy card kit is one of the all-inclusive card kits that are offered by Stampin' Up! and includes everything you need except the adhesive.
The winner of last month's Team Stamp It Blog Hop 
was Lisa Matteson!
Hope you have a very merry Christmas and a safe, happy New Year!

Christmas Holiday Blog Hop


Welcome to Team Stamp It Groups Christmas Holiday Blog Hop!
Whether you hopped onto my blog from one of my teammates or started with my blog, I'm awfully glad you hopped by.
Christmas is such a fun time of year, with all beautiful decorations 
and joyful songs.  
I love snowmen and snowflakes, so when I saw the Beautiful Blizzard stamp set with the coordinating Blizzard thinlits die, I knew I had to have it.  
Hope you enjoy my card.
I started this card with a Whisper White cardbase, the next layer is Highland Heather.  I followed that with an embossed Pool Party layer.  This layer was embossed using the Blizzard Thinlits die along with the Big Shot Embossing blue silicone mat.  The thin blue mat allows you to emboss with thinlit dies and it does not cut the cardstock.  
By the way, it works pretty slick!  
The next panel is Whisper White cardstock that has been stamped with the Beautiful Blizzard stamp set using Pool Party and Highland Heather ink.  The snowflakes were stamped in Pool Party.  
I added some "bling" by stamping the snowflakes again in various locations on the Whisper White card panel using watered down glue as my "ink" and then sprinkled the entire panel with Dazzling Diamonds Glitter, followed by Clear Embossing Powder and heat set it using my heat tool. This panel was adhered to the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals. 
The sentiment is from the Beautiful Blizzard stamp set and was stamped in Bermuda Bay ink onto Vellum paper.  While the ink was still wet, I sprinkled it with Clear Embossing powder and heat set it using my heat tool. I adhered the Vellum onto the card front by placing glue dots behind the "w" on snowflake and then in places where I knew I was going to put the vellum snowflakes.
 The Vellum snowflakes were made by stamping all over the vellum with the VersaMark ink pad and then sprinkled the vellum with Dazzling Diamonds glitter and Clear Embossing powder.  Next I heat set the glitter and embossing powder with the heat tool.  Once this was done, the snowflakes were cut out using the Big Shot and the Blizzard Thinlits die.  The snowflakes were adhered onto the card front using multipurpose glue.
 The inside sentiment is also from the Beautiful Blizzard stamp set and was stamped in Bermuda Bay ink.
