Rustic Christmas Card & Card Challenges

I just love all things rustic. When our team lead gave us this months challenge as soon as I saw the elements I immediately thought rustic! I used Crumb Cake for the card base, I then stamped the hardwood stamp in Crumb Cake on Whisper White card stock. I then took a piece of Early Espresso  card stock and stamped the hardwood in Early Espresso also. I die cut the swirly scribble in Gold foil, the jar in Whisper White, pine cones in Dazzling Diamonds and Red glimmer paper plus in Early Espresso. I die cut some twigs and berries. The tree and deer came from our team lead. I did not have the dies but I knew I wanted them in glimmer paper so I traced them and cut them out. I cut the tree shorter so it could fit on my shelf. I pepped them up with dimensional. I then put the ribbon at the top of the wreath and finally added a piece of the new foil snowflake to the shelf. I had a lot of fun creating this card and I love BLING!

Challenges I am participating in:

DIY Rustic Macramé Christmas Ornament

This year we are doing Rustic Christmas. So I will be sharing ideas between now and Christmas and I hope you enjoy along with the Stampin Up cards and ideas I will be sharing along the way.

DIY Rustic Macramé Christmas Ornament

Stick Horse

I remember one year all of us grand kids got stick horses for Christmas. It was so much fun, us galloping around playing cowboys and indians or rounding up the cattle ( I was as always one of the cows) luckily no one was good at lassoing lol!!

I thought I would put to work the Christmas Stockings Thinlits (pg. 215 of Annual Catalog).

First I cut two stockings out. One out of card stock using the die that has the snowflake and the other from Glimmer Paper from the solid stocking die. I adhere the card stock over the glimmer paper with tombow liquid glue. Then I cut three pieces of ribbon from the Quilted Christmas Ribbon (pg. 5 of Holiday Catalog) 1 3/4", 4 1/2" and  5 1/2". I wrapped the 5 1/2" around a candy stick and cut of any excess. I then took the 1 3/4" and wrapped around nose of stocking. The 4 1/2" I used for the reins.I cut a piece of card stock into a shape of an ear and glued it in place. I added some pearls for the nostrils and eye. For the Card base I used Real Red cut at 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored at 4 1/4". I cut a piece of  Quilted Christmas DSP at 3" x 3". Adhered it to card front and then ran it through the big shot using the Quilt Top embossing folder. I added dimensionals to the back of the horse and attached it to card front. Finally I added a sentiment from the Hang Your Stockings stamp set ( pg 121 of Annual Catalog) and punched it out . I used Garden Green and attached to card front. 

I just think this is adorable!

Breast Cancer Awareness Month and FREE PDF

I am sure you know of someone who has been affected by this disease. Maybe a friend, a loved one or yourself. Do you get your yearly check ups? I hope you do. I do because breast cancer is hereditary on both sides of my family. My mother had breast cancer in 1989. I had just got hired on at MEI and then to find out my mother has breast cancer and if she did nothing she would only have 6 months. I am so grateful she had the surgery, she is now 28 years cancer free. A few years later after my mother had her surgery we got the news that my fathers mother was diagnosed with breast cancer. Hers was not as aggressive but she chose to still have it removed, and she also is cancer free to this day. It is funny how you look at life when things like this happen. You make changes and be more proactive to make sure your family is kept safe. So please!!!! if you have not had a mammogram in a while, call and make an appointment, we are only here on this earth for a short while.

Having fun with the Quilted Christmas

Quilted Christmas has become one of my favorites. I can remember growing up as a kid going to my grandmothers and her sister teaching me how to quilt. My very first quilt I got when I was born, was from my great grandmother. The unique thing about the quilt was she was blind. She could not see colors all she could see was black and white images out of the corners of her eyes. She learned by the shades of the black and whites she saw what colors they were to be. She hand stitched my quilt and I have it still today and I am almost 50. When I saw this stamp and die set it automatically brought back all those fond memories. Oh to be a kid again:)

But what to make with it. So I started going through my stash that I have had over the years and I came across some collegiate scrapbook paper and got an aha! I made two of these like the collage samplers I have seen on pinterest.

I made one OSU and the other Michigan.

 

Here are close up's of each one.

 

 

 I posted a pic on Facebook of the OSU one and it sold in 30

minutes. Tomorrow  I will be posting the Michigan one. Will see how it goes. Do you see where I used the Dies?

So tell me which one is your favorite? I would love to see your comments:)
