An Evergreen Wednesday

Happy Wednesday!! In Vancouver today, the air is crisp, the sun is shining and creative juices are flowing!

This week's Creative Wednesday card is actually the make and take project we did last month at my Holiday Open House.

The card is a quick and simple 5-minute card featuring the Evergreen stamp set on Pool Party and Island Indigo colors. The trick with is card is to remember to stamp the images on the cardstock first then do the Big Shot die cut with the Apothecary Accents framelits and finally Textured Emboss the polka dots.

The designer series paper used here is the Winter Frost Designer Paper Series Stack. ($8.50 for 48 sheets)

It really is unneccesary to spend more than 5 minutes on a Christmas card when you got so many to make each year! Keep it simple and this year you'll have a stress-free holiday season.

Pacific Point Evergreen Christmas

Pacific Point Blue is the new Olive Green for Christmas. I never thought how a blue tree would ever be beautiful but you never know until you try.

Today's Creative Wednesday uses the Pacific Point blue with Bashful Blue to give the card a warm and welcoming Christmas look.

I'm really liking the Evergreen stamp set from the Holiday Mini this holiday season. Do you have a favourite holiday stamp set yet?

Marbling Evergreen Christmas

Thank you for joining me for another Creative Wednesday. Today's feature is another technique stamp club class project we crafted last night. (This month's class was moved up to a few weeks).

For this month's technique, we used the marble effect for the background. It is a quick, fun and mess free technique. Even for a dirty-hands-free-crafter like me found this technique quite fun. I really love the Evergreen stamp set. This time I embossed the Evergreen tree in gold for a nice metallic look to contrast the marbled background.

Evergreen Creative Wednesday

Another week has gone pass and through out the week I couldn't wait for another Wednesday reveal!

Today is another Creative Wednesday Project. This week's project is a Christmas card crafted with the Evergreen Stamp Set from the Holiday Mini Catalogue. The set has a stamp of a tree's silhouette and the words to Silent Night.

By the way of the photo you may be able to see the clear embossing I did with the outline of the tree stamp to give the card greater detail and texture.

Creative Wednesday Stampin' Tip: 

• Use the Embossing Buddy over the paper you are about to emboss on to remove any static.
