Winter Warm Up

Hello Stamping Friends!

It's Feature Day at Your Next Stamp!!

Feature Day Theme Is....
Winter Warm Up

When I read the theme I instantly thought of the Hot Cocoa Phoebe stamp set!! As well as the coordinating Hot Cocoa Phoebe Die Set!!

I love this sweet image of Phoebe holding a cup of cocoa!!

Sure to put a smile on someones face!!

After I stamped the 'You Warm My Heart' sentiment from the Hot Cocoa Phoebe stamp set, I colored the tiny hearts with my Copics and then added some Glossy Accents to each to add a little texture!!

I used the awesome Snowflake Panel Die and placed a piece of purple plaid behind from the Summer Plaid 6x6 Paper Pad!  I finished off my card by adding gemstones to a bunch of the snowflakes!

Colors:

-----------------

I found some inspiration in some of the colors and followed the sketch!!

I created the background with some of my new Distress Oxides I got from Santa!!

I then randomly stamped some snowflakes from the Snow Much Joy stamp set with white ink!

I used the Scallop Circle Die Set and the Circles with Stitching and Piercing Marks Die Set to create the layers behind my adorable little snowman!!

The cute snowman is part of the Hot Cocoa Phoebe stamp set! I used the coordinating Hot Cocoa Phoebe Die Set to die cut him out when I was finished coloring him with my Copics! 

The fun 'There's snow-one like you!' sentiment is part of the Little Darling Winter stamp set!!

And as in most cases, I finished off my card by adding some lovely Gumdrops!!

YNS November Feature Day

Hello Stamping Friends!

It's Feature Day at Your Next Stamp!!

Feature Day Theme Is....
Tags

What a great feature day theme!  I was so excited to see this theme, why you ask?!?

Well every year I tell myself I am not going to buy tags for my Christmas gifts and am going to hand make them! Well I get short on time with all the Christmas hustle and it never happens!

So this feature day theme really helped me this year!!  I may actually be able to make that goal this year!!

Here are a few of the tags I created:

Aren't they cute?!

I knew I wanted to do something kind of quick so that I could make a bunch of them and not take hours!  So instead of coloring all the images in, I stamped the images with an ink color!  I just love all the new inks from YNS!!!

These are all the colors I used:

Black Olive Ink

Blueberry Breeze Ink

Holly Berry Red Ink

Mocha Ink

Olive Green Ink

Purple Passion Ink

Totally Teal Ink

They are truly beautiful!!

I used the amazing Cool Tag Three Die Set to create each of the tags!

I then used these stamp sets to create the tags:

Cozy Christmas Jessica

Holiday Buddies

Holiday Hello

Hot Cocoa Phoebe

Mini Letters and Numbers

Snow Much Fun Snowman

Snow Wonderful

Winter Wonderland Phoebe

Each one of these sets is so fun!!  I love them all!!

I especially liked having the Mini Letters and Numbers stamp set so that I could add the "To" and "From" to the tags.  For the tags that I didn't have enough room to add the "From" to the front, I added it to the back:

I used a black marker to add the two dots at the end of the stamped "To" and "From".

And as always, I finished off my creations by adding some yummy Gumdrops and lovely Divine Twine!!
