Hello, creative friends! Welcome by today. If you haven't yet had the delight of seeing the sweet New Release this month from Creative Worship Stamps, I can confidently say that you're going to LOVE it. The NEW stamps, dies and stencils are absolutely darling. The card I'm sharing today combines some of the new with some of the old. Everything at Creative Worship Stamps is truly delightful.
For this card, I used kraft cardstocks that I layered. I added several patterned papers from the Bundled Up line by Crate Paper. I used some of my snippets (scraps) to add banners and to stamp some of my images. I followed a sketch (see below) from Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers' October Sketch Challenge. I created the layout using this sketch and the pretty patterned papers. This created my card for the most part.
I used the Sweet Holiday Cheer Stamp Set for the coffee cups and main sentiment. The candle and holly/berries images, as well as the Merry Christmas sentiment are found in the wonderful NEW Lantern Light Stamp Set from Creative Worship Stamps. I cut the candle, holly/berries, and sentiment using the coordinating NEW Lantern Light Dies. I used more snippets (paper scraps) to layer the sentiments to help them stand out better. Each image and sentiment is raised up a bit using 3-D Foam Tabs.
On the background of several of the patterned papers (the red base and the grid papers) I used the NEW Vintage Snippets Stamp Set to create some pretty accents. I used Hickory Smoke Oxide Ink to lightly stamp all those sweet vintage background images. They're subtle, but they're there. Little accents like that can add so much fun to our cards. The sweet images from the various Creative Worship stamp sets always complement one another so nicely. Please let me know if you have any questions about what I used. Like I mentioned earlier, you won't want to miss seeing this DARLING NEW RELEASE at Creative Worship Stamps. Thanks so much for visiting me here today. If you'll pop over to my Instagram Page, I'd love to have you FOLLOW me there. You can find loads of great (and super sweet) inspiration on the Creative Worship IG Page as well. I'll see you out there in the creative world. In the meantime, I'm sharing my card in the following challenges that I love.
Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers' October Sketch Challenge - October Challenge #62 - See the cute sketch below that inspired my card. I'll be perfectly honest in saying that I didn't measure each piece and follow the exact dimensions given. I hope that doesn't disqualify me. But nonetheless, I love to play along when I can.
Caffeinated Christmas Card Challenge - October Challenge #46 - I used coffee images and sentiments from Creative Worship Stamps.Have a wonderfully creative week, everyone.
Blessings,
Karen
So pretty, Karen! I just bought the Holiday Cheer stamp set and coordinating dies recently, and they arrived yesterday... so I was tickled to see your beautiful card!
