Happy 2025

Today I'm posting with the All Dressed Up Digital Stamp Design Team as we share this month's new images.  There are three new images available now ~ Penguin Fun, Star of 2025, and Happy 2025.

For my project card I have used 'Happy 2025'.



 I started with a digital background named 'New Year Fireworks Party' from Creative Fabrica.  Using Photoshop Elements, I then layered the 'Happy 2025' image over the background.  Then I was able to lighten the opacity of the background under the image to be able to color her.

After printing I colored the image using Copic markers which are listed below for your reference.  I used the Spellbinder Fluted Classic Oval die for the embossed and cut edge.  After securing the blue patterned paper to the card base, I added the colored image to the center.  I used an orange metallic cardstock to die cut the 'Happy New Year', then secured the words along the top curve.  Lastly I added Crystal Sticklers to the headband for a little additional sparkle. 

It's hard to believe 2025 is about to be here! Wishing you an early 'Happy New Year' full of crafting!

Richly Blessed

 I'm continuing to share 2024 Christmas cards from various manufacturers as we work our way to the big day!

Today's card image is from Penny Black and called Pleasant Perch.




This is another very large stamp which is one reason I enjoy Penny Black images.  It's okay to tilt your die cut image when mounting on the card base.  As you can see it allows the image to appear to be floating or in motion.  

Thank you for stopping by today to see this Christmas card.

 See you tomorrow!

Get Your Merry On!

Today I'm posting with the Design Team for All Dressed Up Digital Stamps as we open the new December challenge.  I selected '3 Little Christmas Girls'.  This great package by Wendy Burns has the images of the three girls together and then has them separated also. 

This is actually Girl 03 image.



 She was lots of fun to color in Copic shades of red.  After die cutting the image and sentiment I outlined both with the R46 Copic.  

The card base is 6" square covered in festive Christmas paper with two additional horizontal strips of patterned paper.  Then I secured the image and the sentiment to the base as shown.  Lastly I added the paper poinsettia and leaves to complete the card design.

Cup of Cheer!

It's time for the Classic Design Challenge to open for December.  Our sponsor this month is Sheepski Design and I've picked their Ginger Hot Tub for my Design Team project.


I used Copic markers to color the image then fussy cut it and set aside.   After adding the snow background to the Kraft card base, I secured several strips of white snow hills.  Then I placed the cup of fun gingerbread guys riding the hills, smiling all the way!    To complete the design I added the green variegated twine and the hand stamped tag.
