Tim Holtz Mini Doodle Greetings and Northwood Rubber Stamps Christmas Card

Here is my first Christmas Card I've made for this year.  I used two of my favorite stamps for this card - one by Tim Holtz, the other by Northwoods Rubber Stamps.

I used the following to make the card:

• Northwoods Rubber Stamps - Snowman and Bird
• Tim Holtz - Mini Doodle Greetings
• Versamark
• Stampendous - Detailed White Embossing Powder
• Copic Markers
• Wink of Stella - Clear
• Memento Tuxedo Black Ink

To make this card, I stamped the Snowman with the Memento Ink.  This was then colored with various Copic Markers.  I used Wink of Stella for the snowman to give it a bit of shimmer.  The image was trimmed down and added a dark blue panel.  The sentiment is from the Tim Holtz Mini Doodle Greetings stamp set.  I stamped this with Versamark, and then added the embossing powder and heat set.  The panel was then added to the card base to complete the card.

Gina K Sending Love Birthday Card

When I first saw the Gina K Sending Love stamp set - I had to have it!.  Here is a card that I made with one of the images.

I used the following to make the card:

• Versafine Black Onyx Ink
• Zing Clear Embossing Powder
• Copic Markers - Y13, Y15, Y17, YG61, YG63
• Gina K - Sending Love Stamp Set
• Gina K - Vertical Greetings & Things

To make the card, I stamped the image with Versafine Black Onyx ink, and then added the Zing Clear Embossing Powder and heat set.  The images were then colored with the Copic Makers.  I then trimmed the image down, and matted it with Black paper.  This was added to the card base.  I then added the Birthday sentiment from the Vertical Greetings & Things stamp set to complete the card.

Anniversary Card with Penny Black Poppy Gems

Here is an Anniversary Card I made using Penny Black Poppy Gems.

I used the following to make the card:

• Penny Black - Poppy Gems
• Versafine Black Onyx Ink
• Zing Clear Embossing Powder
• My Favorite Things - Together Forever Stamp set
• Zig Clean Color Brushes
• Pssst Sheer Shimmer - Gold

To make this card, I stamped the image with Versafine Black Onyx ink, then added the embossing powder and heat set.  I then water colored the images with Zig Clean Color Brushes.  Instead of leaving the background plain, I decided to add color with the Zig Clean Color Brushes.  I then spritzed the image with Pssst Sheer Shimmer.  The sentiment was added and the panel added to a card base to complete the image.

To make the card, I colored the stamps with the Distress Markers, and after stamping the image, added water to create the watercolor look to the images.  The completed image was then cut out with the Simon Says Stamp Stitched Square die.  This was then added to the card base, and the sentiment
was added with Versamark, and embossing powder added and heat set to complete the card.
