Sneak Peek Day #5 - Mistletoe

Welcome to Day #5 of our stamp release party.  Today is our last 'sneak peek' day, so that means the blog hop is tomorrow! Yay!  My design team has created even more awesome projects for you today.  Haven't they done a great job this week?!

I love Christmas and especially making things to share with family and friends.  It's a wonderful time of year!  I love the mistletoe sayings on this stamp set - so fun!  I like to have a variety of Christmas stamps, some religious sentiments celebrating our Saviors birth and also some stamps that are just fun.  This stamp set has some of both.  I hope you enjoy it!  :)

Today's stamp set is Mistletoe

(All of the new stamps and metal dies will be available to order on Saturday!!)

Here is my project:

The mistletoe couple was cut from the A Quilted Christmas cartridge - so many fun cuts on this cartridge!

Stamping the Peachy Keen face stamps can be a little challenging with this type of cut (so many layers!), so I found a way to make it much easier!  I cut all of the layers, including the skin tone layer.  Then, I stamped the face on one of the skin tone paper scraps, and hand trimmed it so it would fit behind all of the layers without any edges sticking out. Then I just used scotch tape to attach it behind the light brown (hair) layer.  Hope that makes sense!  That way, I didn't have to try to line the face up just right - gave me some wiggle room.  :)

The picture above is the inside of my card.  I love this 'Merry Kiss-mas' sentiment combined with the Mistletoe sentiments - makes me laugh.  :)

Don't you just love the decorative cuts on her dress?!  I tied Red jute string around the edge of the card to add a splash of color.

All of today's projects use the Mistletoe stamp set. 

Now it's time to sit back and enjoy these fun projects made by my fabulous Design Team!!

Heather

I love how Heather inked around her sentiment block!  Just gorgeous!

I love the colors Heather used on her beautiful card and the fun patterned paper!

Her mistletoe is soooo pretty!  Love the red jute string bow!

Kate

What a cute Santa!  I love how Kate has him popping in from the side of her card!  



Love the fluffy white along his hat!  Kate used the new lacy banners die for her sentiment.



GiGi

GiGi's gift card holder is beautiful!  I love the that tiny tree with all of its pretty patterns!

Love all of the fun layer on GiGi's tag and the colors are so pretty together!  She used Caribbean Crinkle Ribbon and a bit of Ivory Jute String.

This is so clever how the gift card holder goes together!

Gwen

I love the vintage feel to Gwen's gorgeous card! 

The curved lines are so pretty and those houses are amazing!

Ally

This is about the cutest little Christmas tree I have seen!  I love the patterned papers and especially those fun gems for ornaments!  

Ally used the tiny tags metal dies to cut her cute tag and tied it on with Brown Jute String.

Robin

I love the quilted effect on Robin's beautiful card and her poinsettia is so pretty!



I love this sentiment and Robin's inking is fantastic!

What's a party without presents?!?!
