Christmas Holiday Bench

 It is Tuesday and my day to share with you this Tutti Designs Holiday Bench die on my card.  I had a lot of fun cutting this die with different card stock and like the wood pattern paper for this card with the Christmas music paper behind it measuring  5 1/4" x 4 1/4".   I just cut the die out and tapped it on the table and most of the pieces just fall out.  I distressed the paper with ink and cut out a frame to accent the holiday bench.  I added some glitter spray to the red and pink roses.

Thank You to Bonnie Garby and the Really Reasonable Design Team

Welcome back Really Reasonable Ribbon bloggers and this will be my last card for Really Reasonable Ribbon blog and challenges at this time. I have a grand son  born in May and I will be babysitting him from now on while my daughter returns back to work.  Therefore, I will be spending most of my time with him and very little time for awhile in my craft room until he gets about 6 months older and beginning to take good naps since now he only take baby power naps during the day any where from 10 minutes up to 40 minutes.

I want to thank Bonnie and the wonderful designers on this team for their fantastic support and I learned so much from all of you and thoroughly enjoyed our discussions. I regret leaving since I loved everything about what we did besides the super great customer service, support and care from Bonnie and the team besides working with gorgeous ribbon and flowers from the Really Reasonable Ribbon store.  I recommend any one who loves working with ribbon and looking to be on a design team, this is a number one place to be.

Also, the bloggers who put their cards on the blogs or made a comment on my cards, I want to especially thank you for all that you do.

But back to my card.  The May Art ribbons such as the May Arts Silky Rust Red ribbon are always gorgeous on cards and projects.  I used the Zutter Bow It All bow maker to make this double layered bow and attached it with the 1" Scor-Tape.  I used the wonderful instructions by Bonnie Garby's You-Tube HERE that explains how to make a double layered double bow but just go around the pegs once instead of twice.  I added a pearl brad to the center of the bow and attached it to my card  

Other supplies used:
Sue Wilson Designs-Grace
Sue Wilson Designs-Noble Pierce Rectangle
3mm flat back string pearls
Sue Wilson Designs - Rambling Rose embossing folder
Bazzill card stock
Whimsy Stamp - Rowan

Photo for Christmas

Welcome back to the Rubber Buggy blog.  Each day, one of our talented and creative designers from The Rubber Buggy blog and The Rubber Buggy Facebook will share with you what they have created using wonderful and exciting supplies, dies and flowers from The Rubber Buggy Store.  The Rubber Buggy sales a huge variety of the latest quality rubber stamping and scrapbooking supplies for you at reasonable prices.  Check out the new releases and latest wonder scrapbook and card making supplies today!!

I am excited to share with you my Christmas frame that I made for a special person and have a photo that I took of some of my grand kiddos after a summer dance recital with their their dance outfits and makeup on for this special day.

First, I cut out a 6" x 7" rectangle using card board.  I cut the center 4 1/4" x 5 1/4".  I covered this with white cardstock paper that was embossed before gluing it on this card board.  I cut another 6" x 7" rectangle using card board and glued my photo on it.  I used the 3L CORP-Scrapbook Adhesives - Crafty Foam Tape on the back of the front frame to the back frame.

I cut out the red mirror or foil card stock measuring 6 3/4" x 7 3/4" and glued the frame on it. I cut out a 4" x 5" card board and folded it in half.  I glued it on the back of the entire frame to make this frame stand up.  

I cut out the Tutti Design Poinsettia Corner die with gold cardstock and added a banner with the sentiment from Heartfelt Creations-Gift Wrap Present Stamp set.  I am loving this stamp set.

I added the Prima Marketing Rose Gold Kiss roses to both corners and gold satin string ribbon around the inside frame.

I like framing my cards lately using rectangle and square dies.  Just put a smaller die in the middle of the larger die to get a frame.  I add 3D foam tape on the back of the frames for a shadow box appearance.

Snow Man Globe

Welcome back and I am Nancy Hill, sharing with you every Saturday an exciting new die, stamp and supplies from the wonderful on-line store, The Rubber Buggy.

I made this step card using the two new releases from Tutti Designs - Snowglobe Expressions and the Jolly Snowman dies along with the gorgeous Poppy Stamp Die - Snowy Christmas and the new released stamp from Heartfelt Creations - Celebrate The Seasons - Gift Wrapped Present Stamp Set.  Other supplies are  Graphic 45 - Christmas Carol and Bazzill card stock.

Poppy Stamp Die - Snowy Merry Christmas           
Heartfelt Creations-Celebrate The Season - Gift Wrapped Present Stamp Set         

Inside of Card

I used the Tutti Designs Jolly Snowman along with the Heartfelt Creations-Celebrate The Season-Gift Wrapped Present stamp which was stamped using the Misti Stamp tool and embossed with silver embossing powder.  For those that aren't familiar with the Misti Stamp tool, there are You-Tube video to get you started.   I wasn't able to stamp well in the past until I invested in buying this valuable Misti Stamp tool that comes in 3 different sizes.  Now, my stamping comes out well each time with this Misti Stamp tool from The Rubber Buggy.  

This is called a step card and there are many tutorials on-line for cutting out a step card as well as step-card dies.   

I always use Scor Tape to attach my bows and ribbons on my cards.  In case I want to rearrange my bow, the Scor Tape remains sticky when I take the ribbons and bow off my card and reapply it to the Scor Tape..  

Remember to visit The Rubber Buggy store to shop.  You will be excited to hop on over to  The Rubber Buggy Blog and The Rubber Buggy Facebook each day to see what the talented and creative designers have made with products from The Rubber Buggy store.

I want to thank Anne and the wonderful designers on this team for their fantastic support and I learned so much from all of you and thoroughly enjoyed our discussions and seeing your gorgeous cards and projects. I regret leaving since I loved everything about what we did besides the super great customer service, support and care from Scrapy Land, Anne and the design team. I recommend any one who loves these gorgeous dies and looking to be on a design team, this is a number one place to be besides the super customer service and gorgeous dies from the Scrapy Land store.  

Also, the bloggers who put their cards on the challenges or made a comment on my cards, I want to especially thank you for all that you do.

Well, back to my card.  I love working with the Sue Wilson Designs dies and I used three of the brand dies on this card:  Sue Wilson Designs Grace, Delicate Garden and Nobel Pierced Squares.  I use the Sue Wilson Pierced dies to make shadow frames or any frames for my cards.  Try using the large and two sizes smaller  dies to make larger frames.  I did this on the white frame and then just used one size smaller die with the larger die to make the lavender frame. 

Other supplies used:

Two Turtle Doves

Welcome back and I am excited to share every Saturday on The Rubber Buggy Blog, my cards or projects made with wonderful supplies and dies from The Rubber Buggy on-line store.

Today, I made this Christmas card using the beautiful Tutti Designs Dove Circle Craft die, the gorgeous Graphic 45 "Twelve Days of Christmas" paper pad and the stunning new released Heartfelt Creations-Gift Wrapped Presents stamp set that also coordinates with a Heartfelt Creation Sleigh and Present die set that was all purchased at The Rubber Buggy on-line store.  The Rubber Buggy store has name-brand dies, stamps and supplies for your craft projects, cards and scrap book pages. 

Some of the Heartfelt Creation-Gift Wrapped Present stamp set were used on the inside of the card and stamped using the incredible Misti Stamp Tool.  I wasn't much of a stamper until I started using the Misti Stamp tool which makes all of my stamping and embossing come out exactly how I want it.

I added some beautiful Wild Orchid Craft flowers and beautiful May Art White Lace for the bow with a antique pearl brad in the middle of the bow.  I always attach my ribbons and bows using Scor-Tape.
