Tis the Season, GDP challenge #060, case the designer



Haven't you always wanted to put a santa hat on a Christmas tree?  I just knew I had to do it. Might as well have some fun with those Christmas cards.

This week at Global Design Project we are casing the designer who just so happens to be a PAL of mine, Brian King.  It's always fun to case Brian, he does such neat cards.

I just can't believe I waited as long as I did to get this Jolly Friends set, it's a bundle so there is a  matching punch.   The tree is from Peaceful Pines stamps and Perfect Pines bundle, and is in the annual catalog as a continuing set this year.

Colors are, Whisper White, Crumb Cake, Real Red and Garden Green.   The DSP is from Candy Cane Lane and if you can't see it well, those are little trees on it as well as white dots.

Find the products below, and click on the link above to come and see the teams and other players projects.

Nighttime in the forest

Another set that is just getting used over and over and over.  Santa's Sleigh.  The deer is great, but the sleigh is stunning and can be done in so many ways.  Lots of extras too, tree, gifts ect.

I used Copper foil for my deer, and I'm having so much trouble with photos of the metallics, I think I'll try adding a light from the side.   The Woodland embossing folder is in it's second year, but it's just so easy to grab for so many projects.

The GDP challenge this week is projects Pets/Animals, I actually wouldn't mind a deer for a pet, he might not be so happy as a pet in the desert tho.

Colors for this week are: Dapper Denim, Crumb Cake, Real Red, Whisper White, And some Copper metallic thread. 

As always, click on any image below to be taken to my store.

Stampin Up, Paper Players Challenge 302, Christmas in July


I had already done one Christmas in July for my class and still had the set sitting out when I heard about the Paper Players challenge for this week.  I just had to play.

Being that I live in the desert, using the set for Christmas is just so much fun! And the DSP (Designer Series Paper) that matches the set is fabulous with fun graphics and great colors.

I did use the colors that match the DSP, so not red, but Melon Mambo together with our new Emerald Envy and some Daffold Delight.

If you can see the sparkle at the bottom and around the cactus plants, I just squirted out a bit of white glue, Tombo in this case, took a wet brush or even better the Aqua painter and brushed over the glue adding a bit of water, then I sprinkled on Dazzling Diamonds and set it aside to dry.   If you do this, best to use a bit of Watercolor paper or our Shimmery White will work well too.

I also sponged on a bit of Melon Mambo around the edges of the dsp. The Peaceful Pines and Perfect Pines was used for the ornaments hanging from the cactus.

Thanks for looking!

Stampin Up and Global Design Project challenge 004

The GDP is on challenge #4 already, wow. And while I'm at it, where did Sept go? I'm not sure I saw it as it swept by.  But we do always love when Oct comes here in the desert of AZ, it means it will finally cool down. So far this week looks to be pretty darn hot, but it won't last too much longer.

This was in interesting challenge, we were to take something away from a card done by a member of the challenge and use it as inspiration.  I hope I have inspired you.
