Gifts

Gifts. Everyone looks forward to getting and some in giving them.
One of the image in this sunday's release at DS4J shop is MiniMisteri bearing gifts. The other is bottlecap inserts for christmas.
I have used these two in this card

I have used the 3rd embossing folder PiF016 from here - http://dutchpapercrafts.blogspot.com/2013/10/new-winter-embossing-folders-are-in.html

for the background. The bottlecap die is from whimsystamps and yes that is washi :)

Marianne Christmas Village release

We have a new release at Dutchpapercrafts this week.



Please do see Darlene's video to get a much better view of all the dies and projects. She does such a great presentation.
I just love these dies. They are just perfect for Christmas cards aren't they? You can get them from here

1) Nativity Card








The main die is COL1328. I have also cut out a shrinky dinky and made a charm with it
Other dies used in this are

1. Cheery Lynn - Kiwi Doily - Dl 108
2. Cheery Lynn - Holly Lace Flourish -B148
3. Memory Box - Snowflake Sprig - 98645
4. Poppy Stamp - Dainty Corner 962
5. Sizzix Tim Holtz - On The Edge Die- Ornate (on the tag)
6. Memory Box - Merry Christmas Tidings -  (98643)

2) Rocker card
Rocker cards are one of my favorite cards and of course I had to make one with these dies.
To get the snow texture I have used Snow Tex from DecoArt and also white glitter and stickles




The other side of the rocker card


My dear dear friend Sheila from http://shesasassylady.blogspot.com/ had the designed especially for you stamp made for me . She is such a sweet lady. Thank you Sheila.
The other dies used in this are
1) Spellbinder Grand stately circle
2) Grand circle
3) Cheery Lynn - B146 - Pine branches
4) CS0862 - Anja labels clear stamp
5) Anja Label LR0241



3) Dome Shaker Card

For this card I broke out my sewing machine and also  loved using sizzix plastic dome (which can be used in conjunction with sixxiz framelits ovals) for enclosing the shaker part of the card. I wish I had made the plastic anti static before putting it on though.  http://www.ehow.com/how_8729818_diy-antistatic-plastic.html







Apart from the Village dies I have used (and Sizzix Dome) 

1) Lifestyle Nesting Doily DC0254
2) Sizzix Framelit Ovals
3) Cheery Lynn Holly Corner - B184
4) Joy Craft 6003/2003 - Reindeer Pine Trees
5) Memory Box 98715 - "Holly Holiday Frame Set"

4) Christmas Charger plate

And lastly I love making charger plates. They are a quick , fast and easy gift to make. Some vinyl, plate and other embellishments like ribbon and you have a lovely gift.
You can find these plates at your local craft store or else you also get them at Amazon.com
Transfer tape helps to align and place the vinyl


I have used Spellbinder Grand stately circle and Grand circle apart from the village dies For landforms I freehand cut some pieces and pasted them. The snow bits are left over small pieces from the stately circle.
Hope you enjoyed this release . You will love these dies like I do

Reading is an art form

Hi
I made this card using this lovely image called Lovely Ellise Rose which can be got from http://www.jesscollegefund.blogspot.com/
Love the enterprising way this girl has thought of to raise her college fund.  Hope this inspires you to to get some digis  from her blog.




The dies used are Marianne creatables LR0276 and LR0278 which I got from here - http://dutchpapercrafts.blogspot.com/2013/09/marianne-creatables-petra-frame-dies.html

Now the image is taller than the die so I cut 2 pieces of LR0276 and then made the pillar taller. I didn't waste the rest of the die you can all the pieces used as corners (top side panel in the step card) and as embellishment. 
Pretty dies fora  pretty image :)
