DeNami Product Spotlight: Holly Lantern

DeNami Product Spotlight: Holly Lantern. If you purchase it within the next week - it's only $4.90!!

I stamped the Christmas Holly Vine a few times across the top of the cream cardstock.  Then I went back and added the  Holly Lantern  below it.  Seasons Greetings stamped in Versafine Red. Twine tied around the base of the card. A bit of markers added the color to make this card festive.  Cardstocks used: cream, green and red. 

10 Minute Craft Dash Challenge #7

Prize: $20 DeNami gift certificate 

Colors: Sky Blue, Navy Blue, Kraft 

Since Thanksgiving is in a few days, I'm onto the next holiday.  Christmas will be here before we know it! I stamped a Merry Christmas sentiment in Versafine Majestic Blue in the center of the Sky Blue Cardstock.  (I apologize that the saying is retired, I didn't realize it until I started to type up this post.) I stamped the berry vine stamp in Versafine Sepia around the saying.  This stamp is 10% off for one more day!  I used a light blue marker to fill in the leaves of the vine stamp, then used the quickie glue pen to fill in a bit, and dumped extra fine glitter over the card.  Added a bit of elegant bling.  Finished off with a navy blue 5/8 grosgrain bow.  I love these 10 minute craft dashes!  I must make a better effort to complete more of them.  A HUGE thanks to Paulina for hosting this challenge and letting me play along this week!

Time spent: 6 minutes and 24 seconds.

 Thanks to DeNami Design for sponsoring the Craft Dash this week.  You could win a $20 Gift Cert.!

DeNami Product Spotlight: Berry Vine

Product Spotlight: Berry Vine.

I know I say this every time ... but isn't this a gorgeous stamp!?

I stamped the Berry Vine stamp in Versafine Olympia Green onto Sage cardstock.  It is a gorgeous image alone, but it is even better all prettied up with some glitter.  I used gamma green and cranberry glitter with a quickie glue pen.   I die cut a cream piece of cardstock and added the Wishing you peace and joy this holiday season using Versafine Crimson Red Ink.   I used the quickie glue pen to trace around the outside of the die cut to add some gold glitter.  Layered onto a large square burgundy card and kraft layer.   I think it would be pretty to frame, and change out the sentiment for a photo.  Thanks for stopping by!

I've never used washi tape... until today... and I'm loving it!!  DeNami has an amazing collection of it -- check it out!!

The washi tape I used: pink chevron, teal chevron, and black stripes directly onto a white card.  I added black 5/8 grosgrain ribbon.   Upright Thank You sentiment stamped in black onto the white card base.  I used a corner rounder on the upper right corner.  Literally, you could recreate this card in under 5 minutes, but it's perfect for a quick thank-you.

DeNami Sketch Challenge #14 by Dana

Sketch Challenge #14 by Dana

I just couldn't put the yum yum sentiment where it should have been according to the sketch.  I didn't want to cover up the ice cream cone!  This seemed to work okay, so hopefully it's close enough.

I used the Ice Cream Stamp and stamped it a few times to make it a SUPER tall tower of ice cream.  Colored in with markers to coordinate with the pink and brown theme.  

Hope you get a chance to try out this fun sketch!!

Merry Christmas.... DeNami Style

Facebook fans chose the Poinsettia Vine stamp -- so it made my job of creating a pretty Christmas card easy.  Isn't it a gorgeous image?   Poinsettia Vines is a new cling stamp set that was released this summer.  It is a set of two, but I only used the larger image. I stamped it using Versafine Olympia Green ink.  I intended on using Red Glitter for the poinsettia centers, but it took away from the detailed image.  SO, I emphasized the dots of the image using a quickie glue pen and gamma green glitter.  This glitter matches the sage cardstock perfectly!  Other cardstock used: Red, White, Hunter. 

I added the Merry Christmas sentiment in Versafine Red and the border stamp in Olympia Green to finish it off.   So, make sure you become a  DeNami Fan on facebook --- so you can choose what stamps we use in the future.  Happy Friday --- Have a great weekend!!
