last Card for Photo Card challenge at JustRite Stamps

This was a simple card I did where I embossed the blue paper and then rubbed it with red ink. I die cut the picture and mat with spellbinders die's. I stamped the saying from JustRites Christmas Antique Labels One with a custom die that coordinates with the stamp set. I used Gray Flannel ink from Momento  and then sponged it with the red ink.. I used pop dots to attach both the picture and saying.I added a bit of bling with VivaGlitter liner Holo Iridescent and a red rhinestone. The colors work so well with the picture.
  I have enjoyed this challenge, It made me think outside my box.
Have a very Merry Christmas.

Challenge card #3 Card with a Picture

 
   I have had fun playing with some pictures I have had just waiting to be made into a card. I took these of our crab tree in the back yard and had them make into wallet size with a metallic finish.I found a Authentic Fresh 6x6 paper pack with just the right blue and red to pick up the apples and blue sky . I used several JustRtie stamp sets for this card as well as Spellbinder custom dies for JustRite.Christmas Antique Labels One,Cordinating Die set,Merry and Bright, and Botanical. Medallions and Banners. I stared out with a card I die cut using a Accucut die and then stamped and layered the card using Rhubarb stalk and Gray Flannel momento inks.I also sponged the edge of the dies with the momento ink. For a bit of sparkle I added a few dots of Viva Glitter liner Holo Iridescent.
  I hope you like my card as well as my photo of my back yard crab apples.
I hope you are finding time at this busy time of the year to reflect on the try reason we celibarate Christmas.

a little Elf fun

  
  I wanted to add a little something to this pillow box so I made what I like to call a belly band. I also added the cute little elf. The stamps are from Raisin Boats Stamp set Handy Dandy Helpers. I used Copics to color him. I did score the fold lines to help the band lay nicer around the pillow box.
    This was a quick and fun project. I hope you like it.
