Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree

Hello! I just LOVE this Rocky The Rocking Horse stamp from PeachyKeenStamps. I knew right away that I wanted to gold heat emboss it. :) I watercolored it with distress markers. I fussy cut it out without cutting the inside portion so that I could put it on a wobble. Yep, he really rocks! :)

I gold heat embossed the greeting that is also in the Rocky The Rocking Horse set. I added some sequins and called it done. :) I'm surprised I was able to stop making him rock long enough to write up this blog post. HA! ;)

♥ Nikki ♥ 

p.s. Won't this cute rocking horse look sweet on a baby card too?! :)

Oh deer...

Hello! For my card today I used the adorable Into The Woods set by Lawn Fawn. I think I bought this set for the sweet little deer. I love him. :) I colored him with my Prismacolor colored pencils and OMS {odorless mineral spirits/gamsol}. I stamped the background with Fresh Peach Hero Arts Shadow Ink using the clouds from the Into The Woods set. I added wink of stella to them for shine. 

I stamped the greeting that is also in the Into The Woods Set. And lastly, I decorated the envelope...

I used the ink I stamped the clouds with to decorate the envelope. I love decorating the envelope to match the card! I think it makes it extra special for the recipient. :)

I hope you're having a great weekend!

Sending Eskimo Kisses...

Hello! I hope this evening finds you well, and hopefully out of your turkey coma. ;) For this card, I started by stamping the Cloudy Day background from PeachyKeenStamps with Soft Granite Hero Arts shadow ink. I cut some white cardstock with the Fun Stitched Edges dies by MyCreativeTime to make my snow. I stamped the Igloo from PeachyKeenStamps. Colored it with my Prismacolor pencils, and added some wink of stella for sparkle. I fussy cut it out, but there is a Igloo Die to make it easier. 

I stamped one of the adorable penguins from the Faceless Penguins set by PeachyKeenStamps with Charcoal Hero Arts shadow ink. This set comes with 2 faces, but I chose a face from the Happy Penguin Couples Face Assortment. I colored in the sweet penguin with my Prismacolor pencils. To finish, I added the greeting that is included in the adorable Igloo set from PeachyKeenStamps. 

OH...guess what?! I caved an ordered a Cricut Explore today! :) Click HERE for the deal at Walmart online, no trampling necessary. :)

Happy Thanksgiving! and SALE info

Hiya! Here is a quick card I made with the Create A Critter 2 Cricut Cartridge. I hid the face in Cricut Craft Room so I could give him a PeachyKeenStamps face. The sweet face is from the adorable Squee Face Assortment from PeachyKeenStamps. 

I white heat embossed the greeting from the A Thankful Heart set by MyCreativeTime. The turkey is on a WOBBLE so he wiggles. :) 

I hope you have a fabulous Thanksgiving!

The best way to spread Christmas cheer, is singing loud for all to hear.

Hiya! I hope you're having an awesome day. :) I had lots of PeachyKeen fun making this card. I stamped the background with the Candy Stripe Background by PeachyKeenStamps with soft brown Hero Arts shadow ink for a tone on tone look. I cut apart the music notes from the July 2014 set to stamp my panel. {don't worry the stamps don't scream when you cut them. promise. and they go right back together again} I stamped and colored the sweet elf from the Singing Elves set. I water colored him with distress markers. I added 2 lines to make his shoulders. 

I used crushed olive and shabby shutters for his outfit and hat. For his skin, I used tattered rose and spun sugar. And for his hair I used vintage photo. I added polka dots with my favorite Sakura Gelly Roll pen. I white heat embossed that awesome greeting from the July 2014 set. Oh, and I added clear wink of stella to his hat and collar. :)
