Happy Holidays……

Hi Everyone:

Sneak peeks are awesome and such great teasers.  Who doesn’t want to come back and see some more.  Yes, I have another “sneak peek” from High Hopes Stamps for today’s card.

Yes, I did something different this time.   This stamp is called Penguin Tag and is meant to be a tag.  Instead of making it into a tag, I decided to make it into a card.  After stamping it on copic friendly paper, I coloured it Copic Markers and used the Peekabook Squares Die to cut it out, which was mounted onto some red mulberry paper.  A few dabs of the Zig Wink of Stella – Clear was added to the mulberries around the candy canes.  Some ribbon, Novo Glitter Drops – White Blizzard, Ribbon and enamel dots finished it off.

As this stamp is actually a tag, it can be used in multiple ways: — a gift tag that can go with any type of present, gift bag, wine bag etc.  You get the idea…………….right multiple uses.  Yay!

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.
