(transparency: hambly; patterned papers: basic grey, fabric poinsettia: imaginisce; snowflake dies: nestabilities; snowflake diecut: mme, dcwv; chipboard letters: ki memories; adhesives: tombow monorunner, sewing machine, doodlebug brad)
sorry for the slightly wonky photo angles, transparencies are hard to photo without getting that big round obnoxious "UFO's are landing on my card!!!" light-bounce, aren't they? here's a shot that shows which bits are affixed where:
you can see (i hope?) that the compound snowflake embellishment thingie...and the festive lettering...are on the outside, whilst the layered diecut label shape is on the inside; in order to provide both extra dimension/pattern AND a place to write a festive greeting. i love a layered diecut label shape that *MULTI-TASKS* don't you?! ♥
I love this "another" transparency card! I have a blog award for you. I wanted to thank you for sharing your talent. Just visit to pick it up!
ReplyDeleteOoh another card. I love the colors! Greatness as always. The layers are so pretty on this. And you just made it to make it? Good for you. I've been cheating and making cards out of my Tim Holtz tags from last year and the ones I'm making this year. I have no time. I also wanted to make ornaments. I'm studying like a fiend too. Talk to you soon!

ryn: I did think about making more paint brush/knitting stick holders for my Etsy, because there are tons on there for sale that are very costly and I'd like to do one that was a bit more arty and pretty and figure out a pattern that might make it even more useful. The ones on Etsy go for around 40 to 50 bucks. I wouldn't mind making some that aren't as "big", but could be in a less money charged area. Where I could charge like 25 to 35 or so for each. I'm brainstorming. I miss you too. I'm so ready for this semester to be over!
ReplyDeleteYou are fabulous with transparency cards. And the snowflake is stunning! I love it!
ReplyDeleteThis is so fun and fabulous! LOVE it!
ReplyDeleteso fun and pretty! love the layered snowflake and the stitching details!
ReplyDeleteLOVE this...you always rock the pink!
ReplyDeleteAhhhh... there you are! I was a teeny, tiny bit worried there for a moment! Looks like LHJ (or is it lovely minion jeff during the season?) has sorted you out! *giggle*
ReplyDeleteNon traditional colors? Check! Pink? Double check! Funky cool stitching? Check!!
And, yes, multi-tasking is the highest form of awesome!
(which might possibly mean that you are the most awesome crafty woman in the history of the world!)
GORGEOUS! I did not even recognize it as the other half of the transparency...you made it look completely different and equally stunning. And I realize how much I need to practice with my new sewing machine; the stitched letters are marvelous :)
