Gnomie Christmas




It's day 2 of my Christmas series and today I am using some products by Taylored Expressions.


To make these cute snow people, I started with some Neenah Solar White cardstock for the bodies and then used some black, aqua, green apple, pastel pink and raspberry ice cardstock for their attire. 

For santa gnome below, I used some Neenah Solar White, black, red pepper, smooth sand, green apple and gold foil.

It was so fun piecing these together using all the different colors of cardstock. Cutcardstock has so many colors to choose from.

One Set, Two Occasions



Today's cards is brought to you by Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps. I used one main set to create both of these cards even though one is a Christmas card. 
To make these cards, I started with a couple white top folding A2 card bases. For the top card I created a background on a white panel and then stamped the cake, colored it and cut it out and attached it to the panel. The greeting is from a different set (all products linked below) and on the inside it reads...Enjoy and extra piece...birthday cake is calorie free. 

The bottom card is a Christmas card using this same set which is a birthday set. For this card I also started with a white top folding A2 card base and a white panel. I stamped the present masked it off and then stamped a couple more. I removed the mask and colored them using OLO markers. The greeting on this one is also from a different set. 
I love how versatile this birthday set is.
