R2G Card Kit - Noel

Another card kit, this time with Stampin Up elements.  I watercolored with a paint brush, chipboard coasters with reinkers in Glorious Green and Real Red. Once dry, I cut the letters with the Typeset Alphabet Bigz Dies. I embossed the bottom of the card with the Petals a Plenty embossing folder.  I added a .75" strip of Whisper White with red and white zigzag washi tape on it.  I added a piece of Glorious Green 1/4"gross grain ribbon across and taped the ends to the inside of the card.  I tied on a shorter piece with a knot. I adhered the NOEL chipboard letters above the strip.

Card Club - November - Snowflake Joy

I started with a navy card.  I cut the navy snowflakes from navy flocked ribbon with Marianne Designs thin die.  It's best to cut from the back side and fortunately with the snowflake it makes no difference in the result. I cut the red scallop borders with a Die-amics die.  I punched holes in the scallops with my 1/8" punch.  I glued the borders down first having measured the distance apart with the white layer.  Then I glued the white layer over the borders.  I then placed the navy flocked snowflake in the centre of the white and used a push pin to create the hole for the snowflake brad.  The J and Y were cut with the Stampin Up! Typeset Alphabet Bigz dies from the same card stock as the borders.  They were glued to the white layer evenly on each side of the snowflake "O".    The girls really liked the turquoise one.

Challenge - Wordy

I started with a black card. I cut the light blue layer with the SB A2 Matting Basics Nestabilities.  I added a piece of black grosgrain ribbon along the left hand side and taped the ends to the back.  This layer was adhered to the card front.  I cut a piece of taupe card stock with the Spellbinder Romantic Rectangles die.  This layer was added to the card.  I cut a piece of black card stock with a SB smooth oval nestabilities.  The sentiment word was cut with the Stampin Up! Typeset Alphabet Bigz Dies in the card stock as the first layer.  I glued them to the oval with quick dry adhesive.  I glued this to the taupe layer with 3D foam tape.  I added a couple of silk flowers in the top left hand corner held in place with an aqua blue brad to match the first layer and a black butterfly (unknown source) below the flower which was adhered with 3D foam tape.  I'm submitting this card to the Wordy Challenge C4C193 at Crazy 4 Cards.
