November 2012 Creative Contest-Mitten Builder Punch

The theme for the November 2012 Creative Contest held my my upline, Dawn Olchefske, was the Mitten Builder Punch.  Dawn had given me a birthday card in October 2012 using the Shadow Box Technique.  Dawn has a GREAT tutorial on her blog showing how to create this Shadow Box card.  I took it a little further and added a battery operated tea light candle and put it in between the layers of the card.

Here is a close-up of the Mitten Builder Punch card.  I put Dazzling Diamonds on the embossed snowflakes.  Using the little tea light, made the glitter almost pop off the card.  I love how this card turned out and am trying to think of other ways I can incorporate a tea light candle.

Everything Eleanor: Get Well

Flowers cheer anyone up when your're not feeling well but sometimes you can't have real flowers because you're allergic to them.  The next best thing is a beautiful Get Well card with flowers on it.  These flowers were made with the new little 1-1/4" Scallop Circle Punch.  I also embossed the Daffodil Delight and Tangerine Tango Card Stock with the Lacy Brocade Embossing Folder and put them behind the Scallop Circle Punch..

Love & Sympathy: Flower

Today was a Color Coach inspiration day.  I went to the Color Coach to try a totally different color combination.  These are not colors I would normally put together but as you can see, they look beautiful on this sympathy card.  I really like the simplicity of this card.  I used the Love & Sympathy stamp set which has only three stamps but they can all three be used to create a sympathy card.  If you're looking for an excellent stamp set to create beautiful sympathy cards, Love & Sympathy is a great choice.
