Get Cracking’ on Christmas!

I LOVE making Christmas cards, so when my friend, Jenn Shurkus asked me if I wanted to participate, I was IN!

It seems that there are SO many fun products out around the “Holidays” and less time to work up the designs that are floating in my head, so some of my stamp and die sets don’t get the attention they deserve! Jenn and Chari thought the same! That’s how “Get Cracking,” got cracking!

I call it “Dream time.” Time that I like to just “Ponder the Possibilities” of what each stamp or die is telling me. During the Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah season there isn’t a lot of dream time.

I’ve been dreaming about Alcohol Inks and after spending precious days, during Christmas with family, my order of Silver Sparkle paper arrived and this happened.

The Silver Sparkle paper by Ranger will make anything magical, perfect for Alcohol Inks only enhanced by any alcohol ink you toss at it! And then, I embossed it with a Sizzix 3D Textured Impressions embossing folder. Kind of “gilding the lily” but, was so glad I did! No secret that I fell in love with Simon Says Stamps, “Holly and Pine Frame,.” It’s a favorite! An easy sentiment from Taylored Expressions finishes this wintery card. But, any wintery sentiment would be perfect. Product list below has other Snowflakes available at Ellen Hutson that will have a similar look.

Have another peek at this amazing alcohol ink background with that Silver Sparkle paper!

Now, go treat yourself and buy some! It’s AMAZING!

Thank you for stopping by! See you next time! And, yes, if you shop my links (below) I receive a little compensation. It helps to offset my blog costs and bring more fun content your way. But, mostly I just love you stopped by!
