Poinsettia

Hello everyone! Welcome back to my blog. I was able to squeeze in atleast 1 Christmas card this weekend! I take that as a big win 😊

I used the Altenew - Poinsettia die to die cut the large poinsettia in red. I used the branches from Altenew - Berries and Branches in brown and few different shades of green. For the frame, I embossed a brown card stock with Altenew - Deck Planks 3D embossing folder and die cut an arch out. I used the negative cut out as the frame. The sentiment is from the Altenew - warm Blessings stamp set. I arranged all the elements and adhered them once I was happy and trimmed out the excess that was out of the card. I used the colors from the current Altenew Inspiration Challenge - can’t let that go without making a few Christmas cards now, can I? 


Thanks for stopping by! Have a great day!

Mistletoe Wreath

Hello everyone! Welcome back to my blog! I’m back again, after another short break. 

Recently I got my Altenew package with the Festive Greenery die set. I couldn’t wait to use it 😊 I die cut the greenery and berries with this die set. For the background, I embossed a brown cardstock with the Altenew - Deck Planks 3D Embossing Folder. I arranged the greenery on the background and adhered them. I die cut the Fancy Peace on gold glitter cardstock for the sentiment. 

I used the colors from the current Altenew Inspiration Challenge. It’s just perfect for Christmas cards.

Pink Snowflake

Hello everyone! Welcome back to my blog! Today I have another Christmas card with the Altenew Inspiration Challenge colors - I love these colors so much!


I used the Altenew - Cozy Sweater 3D Embossing Folder for the pink background. I die cut a few snowflakes from the Altenew - Layered Snowflakes 2 with pink and gold glitter card stock and layered them. I’ve been seeing all these videos of the spinner l and I wanted to try it. So I got some from Amazon and used 1 for the snowflake. For the sentiment, I die cut the Altenew - Fancy Enjoy die and cut out the ‘en’ to create the joy. I love it when I am able to make some thing different than the supply was intended for. Here’s a video of the spinner. 


Here’s the pic of the Altenew Inspiration Challenge colors- I just love these colors and I think it works so well for Christmas. I know it’s not the traditional colors, but looks so elegant, especially with a touch of gold.

Tropical Birthday

Hello everyone! Welcome back to my blog. Today I’m sharing the birthday card I made for my daughter’s last birthday. 

She wanted a tropical cake, in the shape of a coconut, with tropical flowers, leaves and birds around it. I tried to capture the essence of the cake I had made for her birthday in this card. Well, except for the flamingo. I used the Altenew - Deck Planks (brown arch) and Ribbon Waves(blue) 3D embossing folders for the background. The dies are from Momenta and Gina Marie designs. I added a little shading to the flamingo. This was a quick card to make. Here’s the picture of the cake with all the fondant elements.
