- Sweater Weather in the Woods Wood Slice Ornaments | My Favorite Things

  Hello, it’s Stacy from CraftaholicMomma up today on the Scrapping for Less blog with an “other than a card” project for you today.
  
  This project was not my original idea as I’ve seen it around on Pinterest and such. I just loved the idea! I though I “wood” make these for my daughters teachers, paras and classmates for Christmas. They make a very cute gift or stocking stuffer for a friendly cost.
  
  I stamped the images from the MFT Sweater Weather in the Woods stamp set with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I then colored the images with my Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers. I read somewhere that they had better luck with no bleeding if they used their Spectrum Noirs. The COPIC Markers with the brush bibs tend to bleed on the wood. I think the key is to use a marker with a bullet nib. I guess the best thing to do is to sacrifice one of the wood slices and try out different markers on it and see which one works best for you.
  
  The other cool thing about these wood slices is that they come already pre-sanded and pre-drilled with holes. Plus a big wad of rustic twine was included.
  
  So if you’re looking for quick and easy gift try making these wood slice ornaments. Your recipients will love them!
  
  Thanks for visiting,

- Stamping Bella ~ All is Calm

  Hello! Crystal here with a sweet card using an adorable stamp set from Stamping Bella called The Penguin on a Reindeer on a Polar Bear.
  
  I paired the Stamping Bella set with the bright and beautiful Holiday Cheer papers from Sunny Studio. Oh my goodness… these papers have such beautiful colors! They totally inspired my color palette for this card. I stamped the image and the sentiment on a 5-1/4 x 4″ piece of white card stock.
  
  I then colored using my Copic markers:
  
  Penguin ~ YR15, YR68, N0, N1, N3, N5, Colorless Blender, R14, R27
  
  Deer ~ E23, E25, E31, E34, E51, E53, W4
  
  Polar Bear ~ W00, W1, W3, W5, R00, R21, Colorless Blender
  
  Tree ~ R14, R27, R37, RV21, RV34, B000, B02, Y06, Y17, G24, G29, G46
  
  I trimmed down my panel to 3-5/8 x 5-1/4″ and adhered a piece of the striped patterned paper from the Holiday Cheer papers to the back of the panel, now making the panel measure 4 x 5-1/4″. I die cut two banners from the papers, trimmed them to my desired length, and then adhered them to the panel. I popped up the panel on a white card base.
  
  My final touch for this card was some Sprinkled Sugar Stickles on the fluffy hats of the penguin and polar bear. It really gives a glittery shine to the little guys hats! Adorable! This wonderful design was inspired by the fun sketch that Katie posted in the Scrapping for Less: Show & Share facebook group. If you’re not already a member of the group, you can join here… SFL: Show & Share.
  
  Thank you friends for checking out my blog post!
  
  See ya next time.
  
  Inky Hugs!

- Get on the Nice List with MFT!

  Thanks so much for stopping by! I love getting a jump on Christmas cards and this little cutie moved right up to the top of my list. I dug into my Christmas stash and went through some patterned paper. When I saw the green plaid I immediately wanted to use that for her dress. Then I ran into a snafu…have you ever not done a technique in so long that you forget how? That is what happened to me! Embarrassing but in case any of you out there experience this now you know you’re not alone. Thank goodness my friend was hanging out close by and when I mentioned that I really wanted to paper piece her dress but couldn’t she laughingly reminded me how. As soon as she reminded me I felt so silly but we got a good laugh out of it!
  
  Here is a quick run down of what I did:
  - Nice List stamp from MFT
  - patterned Christmas paper from PhotoPlay (Mad for Plaid from last year’s release)
  - using my Tim Holtz stamp platform I stamped the Pure Innocence girl with Lawn Fawn’s Jet Black which is waterproof and alcohol marker safe
  - I colored her in with my Copic markers and Teresa gave me a tip after I paper pieced her dress that I didn’t know about…she said to take a dark grey marker and color around the dress parts that I paper pieced to soften the edges so that the dress doesn’t look like it’s floating on top of her, brilliant!
  - the sentiment was stamped in VersaFine since it gives such a crisp look
  - wanting her shoes to look like patent leather (the shiny ones from my childhood) I covered them in glossy accents
  - lastly I used silver glossy dots from Pink & Main to add a finishing touch
  MFT’s Pure Innocence stamps are just that perfect mix of sweet and cute, and I am smitten with them! Now to make more Christmas cards!!! Thanks so much for stopping by and checking out my post I hope you get the chance to craft today. A little or a lot just some time for what you want to do. Have a great day!
  
  Kim 🙂
