Christmas Cardinal Card
Here is my Christmas Cardinal Card. The stamp and diecut are from Heartfelt Creations. The branches and pine needles are originally stamped in black ink, then each needle is glued by a glue pen, embossed and then heat set. The same goes for the branches. The cardinal has two layers (pop dots separate them). I used Copics markers to color the cardinal and the pine cones. The white cardstock is chalked in green. I also used Cor'dinations (Sand it, Tear it, Love it) red paper that was also embossed using the Snowflake embossing folder from Cuttlebug.

Ok, this took some time. The under layer of the cone is colored with Copics along with the top layer. The top layer of the cone is just another stamped version of the cone, but it is cut in horizontal sections. Then it is glued to the bottom layer (only the top portion of each layer). Then the bottom layers are lifted up to give it the feel and appearance of a 3 dimensional shape of a cone. Finally, I applied a cocoa bean embossing powder to the top (used a glue pen), heat set it and now it looks like sap is on the cone. Very nice effect.

Let it Snow Card
This is my "Let it Snow" Card with stamps and diecuts from Heartfelt Creations. Various cardstock was used and a blue dye ink pad was utilized.
Mouse Sleigh Card
This is my Christmas Card. The "Believe & you will find Christmas" stamp is heat embossed with gold embossing powder.
This is the cropped image of the Merry Christmas Card. The three mice and harnesses are pop dotted. All of the colorings are Copic Markers. The noses, Santa hat, and the red sleigh area done with Glossy accents. The "snow" at the bottom of the page is created by three ripped pages of white card stock that have been embossed with a Cuttle Bug embossing folder (Swiss Dots). They are arranged unevenly to get a snow effect.
Christmas Present Card
This is my Christmas Present Card....looks just like the top of a present! The snowflakes are all stamped (using a big stamp, but it is two images (one on the left, one on the right, both separated by the bow and ribbon)!
The tag is of the same color as the bow and ribbon. It has been heat embossed with silver embossing powder on the edges of the paper piecing. "Season's Greetings" is stamped in black and the holly is colored using Copic markers (green leaves) and red Stickles. Finished off with a white/glitter string.
Birthday Card
This is a birthday card. I used two different yellow papers (although it photographed to look like it is gold). I used a cuttle bug embossing folder (divine swirls) on the under paper. Paper pieced a flower and two butterflies.
I paper pieced 2 butterflies on the card and also stamped the butterfly image on the actual card. Although you cannot really see it well in this photo, the paper piecing is folded in the middle so that it looks like the butterfly is sitting on the card. I used a Zot to attached the butterfly to the card (The Zot is clear versus not using a white pop dot).
