Reindeer Print

Hello & Happy Tuesday!

A late start to my day as I am dealing with a headache that just does not want to quit!

It's probably a mix between the heat & air conditioning that is doing it.

My sinuses drive me crazy with the ac on but when it gets in the 90's you cannot do without it!

Today I have another pack of holiday cards to share for my Christmas in July series.

One more day of sharing them and I hope you have been enjoying them!

Today's pack uses a set called Reindeer Print that came out in the Stampin Up Holiday Mini Catalog in 2005.

It was my friend Deb's set that I borrowed. I'm pretty sure she still has it!

I do not have a picture of the stamp set to share as I borrowed it along time ago and embossed these images and put them in a box that I keep stamped images in.

Not the best pictures because of the Silver Foil Paper.

They are much prettier in real life!

Card Details:

Stamps: Reindeer Print (retired), More Merry Messages (retired)

Ink: Versamark

Cardstock: Thick Whisper White, Silver Foil Paper, Whisper White, Year of Cheer Specialty Paper (retired)

Accessories: Oval Layering Framelits, Heat Gun, Silver Embossing Powder, Silver Metallic Enamel Dots (retired), Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

Have you made any Christmas cards yet?

I still am working on more that I will continue to share down the road.

Be sure to stop back tomorrow for the last set for my Christmas in July series!

I hope I have inspired you to pull out your older stamps, ink & paper and get crafty!

It's a great way to get a jump start on the busiest holiday of the year!

My thoughts today....

I'll be hiding in my craft room working on some upcoming cards for my Stamp Day w Friends!

It's the only way to beat the heat!

Thanks for stopping by & have a great day!

Merry Monday Challenge Week #95

Hello & Happy Monday!

Hope everyone had a nice weekend! 

Since it's Monday that means it's time for another challenge from over at Merry Mondays! 

So grab some supplies and play along with us! 

Here we go!

I just loved the little Scottie dog that was in the inspiration picture but I didn't have a Scottie dog stamp. I went thru my box of stamped images and found a few of these embossed reindeer and pulled them out. My reindeer is from an old retired SU set called Reindeer Print that I borrowed from Deb. I embossed my image with Cherry Cobbler embossing powder. I went with a monochromatic look of white & Cherry Cobbler and I like the crisp look of it! My white panel under the reindeer is embossed with the Woodgrain EF from SU. I used some Cherry Cobbler Chevron ribbon and my sentiment panel was cut out with Circle Nestibilities and popped up with a dimensional. I added a red rhinestone and called it done. Another nice Christmas card done for my pile!

Merry Monday Week #95 Card:

Stamps: Reindeer Print, To You & Yours (sentiment)

Ink: Cherry Cobbler, Versamark, Cherry Cobbler EP

Well, that's all for me this week!
