Welcome crafty friends and thanks for hopping over to my blog today. I am so excited to be joining Simon Says Stamp to celebrate their new release…Cheer and Joy! You should have arrived here from the blog of the amazing Amanda Korotkova 🙂 If you know me, I absolutely love any stamps designed by Cathy Zielske, and was so excited to get the Clean Line Christmas stamp set in my package. I have created 3 cards with it, and another using a new background and an older CZ Design set. You can see all the products from the Cheer and Joy release HERE.
For my first card, I used all of the trees in the Clean Line Christmas on a panel of soft navy cardstock. I stamped and embossed the Silent Night sentiment in white and added some gold and white splatter to my background. I stamped and embossed the trees on Tim Holtz gold Metallic Kraft Stock in white and cut them out. I cut some snowy hills then nestled the trees into the hillside.
For my second card, I used the new Marie Snowflake Die along with some Tim Holtz Confections Metallic Kraft Stock in all the colors of the rainbow. This kraft stock cuts like a dream. I added the Season’s Greetings sentiment from Clean Line Christmas to the card then arranged the snowflakes around the sentiment. I added a Pretty Pink Posh clear droplet to the center of each snowflake and mounted the panel onto black cardstock.
For my next card, I blended a background panel using Distress Oxides in Seedless Preserves, Wilted Violet and Tea Die onto Distress Watercolor Cardstock. I added splatters of Hero Arts White Glimmer and Gold Starry Colors watercolors. When the panel was dry, I stamped and embossed the Peace sentiment. To finish the card, I added a Marie Snowflake cut from Simon Says Stamp White Glitter paper and backed with craft foam. I matted it onto a piece of gold metallic kraft stock, then onto a white notecard.
For my last card, I used the super fun new Outline Christmas bulbs and stamped them and embossed them with Onyx Black Versafine Ink and embossed them with clear embossing powder. I painted the bulbs in with Daniel Smith watercolors in Opera Pink (my fav color ever), Quinacridone Red, Hooker’s Green and Olive Green. I let the panel dry and then gave it a splatter of Hero Arts White Shimmer and Gold Starry Colors Watercolors. I adhered it to a white notecard and used the Let’s Get Lit sentiment from one of my favorite CZ Design sets, Happy Hour. This card is going to be perfect to give with a bottle of holiday cheer!
That’s it for me today, but I am sure I will be making plenty more cards with these sets and the other sets that I have ordered from this release.
