New High Hopes Stamps Release — Woodsy Christmas

High Hopes Stamps, Woodsy Christmas Release (High Hopes Stamps), ,

Welcome OCS and High Hopes Stamps fans;

Today is the debut for High Hopes Stamps newest release called “Woodsy Christmas”.  This is a wonderful and cute collection that will be a must have.

For my card, I have created one that will hold a gift card, using Penguin Tag, Magic of Christmas and Happy Holidays.

Front of Card

Inside of Card

I used a piece of 6″ x 12″ cardstock and scored at the 3″ and 9″ marks.  These two side panels were then folded  and met in the center.

The pieces for the front were cut to 2 3/4″ x 5 3/4″ (green cardstock) and the design paper was cut to 2 1/2″ x 5 1/2″.  For the center panel the DP was cut to 5 3/4″ x 6″.  The side panels were cut to be 2 3/4″ x 5 3/4″ each.  The silver panel was cut to be 3′ x 5 3/4″.

The gift card or certificate can sit inside the silver panel.  After colouring the Penguin Tag, I cut it out and adhered it to the front.  I left the tag portion blank, but you could write anything here.

Supplies used:

  • Stamps:  Penguin Tag, Magic of Christmas, Happy Holidays (Woodsy Christmas — new release for High Hopes Stamps)
  • Paper:  XPress It Blending Cardstock; DP – Photo Play Mod Christmas

Welcome Everyone;

Now that September is nearly over and the weather is getting cooler, that means more colds and feeling under the weather.

For today’s post I made a CAS card that could be used as a Get Well Card. Instead of using design paper, I used Gina K. Designs Vibrant Vines Foil-Mates with a sheet of Brillant Blue Fancy Foils. This was then foiled using the Minc machine. Unfortunately, the photo isn’t showing the sparkle in the foil.

The image was stamped with Staz On Jet Black ink on some water colour paperand coloured with Zig Clean Color Real Brushes.

Supplies used:

  • Stamps:  Garden Fence, Get Well Soon (High Hopes Rubber Stamps)
  • Ink:  Staz On Jet Black
  • Paper:  Strathmore Ready Cut Water Color

Welcome Everyone;

With the start of school and fall almost here, this brings the start of Winter fun and sports.  Hockey is a big one with my grandchildren.  They all play and can’t wait for their season to start.

For today’s card, I have used the adorable Penguin’s Pastime stamp from High Hopes Stamps.  Copic Markers were used to colour the image.  Silver foil, and Turquoise & Silver Foil, were used with the Heidi Swap Minc machine to foil the snowflakes.

Welcome Everyone;

September is here and One Crazy Stamper and High Hopes Stamps have a new theme called Anything Goes.  It is always good to have some baby cards on hand for that special occasion.

For today’s card, I have used the addorable Swaddled Baby Girl from High Hopes Stamps.  I coloured her with Copic Markers and paper pieced the blanket.  I used a Lacey Circle Die to cut the image out as well as a piece of matching cardstock that I threaded some ribbon through.  Some bluish gray jewels finished off the card.
