Night In Bethlehem

10 / 14 / 1710 / 12 / 17

I know it’s not even Halloween yet but I can’t stop thinking about Christmas! It’s my favorite holiday of the year and there are only 74 days till Christmas! So, I wanted to share one of my favorite new bundles from the new Holiday Catalog.

Night in Bethlehem is a bundle that includes the stamp set and thinlets.

It’s easy to create some really beautiful cards with this set and I found when using this set, I didn’t need to add a lot of embellishment.  And the sentiments are so beautiful.

On this card, I used Night of Navy and Whisper White.  I’ve stamped the star image in Smokey Slate Ink.  I used the thinlet to die cut the town and then used dimensionals to adhere it back on.

I used Dapper Denim Ink and stamped the town image and kept stamping upward without reinking to get this effect.  I stamped and die cut the Joseph and Mary image and used dimensionals to adhere.   I love the font for this sentiment.  I added a few rhinestones around the star.

I love this last card.  It’s a little more detailed but the effect is so worth it.  The card base is Crumb Cake and the the other color is Basic Black.  I created a mat  using Basic Black and Whisper White card stock.  There are two different town thinlets to use in the big shot.  I cut one in Basic Black and one in Whisper White.  I layered those on the card front.  Added my Joseph and Mary image using Basic Black ink and the thinlet.  And again the sentiment is so inspiring.

I got my ideas straight from pinterest.  Remember if you get a new stamp set and you don’t know how to use it, just search on pinterest with the stamp set name and great ideas will come up.  🙂

Cat Punch and the Eclipse Technique

10 / 13 / 1710 / 12 / 17

Have you heard of the eclipse technique?  I hadn’t until I started seeing it on pinterest and I had to find out how to do it.  It’s really simple and makes a great effect on your cards and scrapbooks.  I used the cat punch for mine and I love how it turned out!

On the first two cards, I used Wood Words from the Annual catalog.  I stamped first and then used the cat punch to punch out.  Before putting the cat back in place, and to add an extra layer, I punched the cat out of a solid color of card stock and adhered that to the back of my stamped cat.  Then I used dimensionals to adhere it back on to the front of the card (so it stands up a bit).

On the last card, instead of stamping, I used a piece of Painted Autumn Designer Series Paper on a Cajun Craze Card Base.  This cat is a little more hidden but I love it!  The sentiment came with the September Paper Pumpkin Kit!

Here are the supplies I used for all three cards:
