Mini Merry - Sketch Frenzy Friday

Hope you can join us for today's mini blog hop with Sketch Frenzy Friday.
Today's sketch is by Tina Munzke

 

I flipped the sketch on its side to make my card.

Technique:

The card base is Cherry Cobbler upon which I placed a Whisper White layer embossed with the Lacy Brocade folder  and sponged with Crumb Cake ink.

Images:

The Merry Mini's trees were stamped with Gumball Green ink and a rhinestone placed on the top of each tree. A 1" square punch was used to punch the tree images out, and that was layered onto a cherry cobbler postage stamp punchie using a dimensional. This was placed on a 1 1/4" square of Be of Good Cheer designer paper.

The sentiment word is from Teeny Tiny Wishes.  Only the word "Merry" was highlighted with a cherry cobbler marker. The sentiment was punched out with a 1" circle punch, matted with a cherry cobbler 1 1/4" circle punch and then onto a 1 1/4" circle of designer paper.

Stamps: Merry Minis, Teeny Tiny wishes

Inks: Crumb Cake, Gumball Green, Cherry Cobbler marker

Merry Sleigh - Technostamper 235

Black and white seems to be very popular colors for Christmas cards this year, but I just couldn't do it.  Some color had to be on my card which I made for the TSSC 235 here

 

To make this card, I placed the sketch on its side.

Technique

Card Base:  The Basic black card base was embossed with the polka dot folder and lightly inked with Whisper White - like it's snowing.

Sleigh and Image Panel  The sleight was embossed with cherry cobbler embossing powder.  The edges of the whisper White panel were pricked with the mat pack and paper piercer

Embellishments: Using the Merry Mini stamp set, 2 different trees were stamped using gumball green ink.  They were punched out using the coordinating mini punch.  Some dazzling diamonds was added to the trees and a rhinestone attached to the top.  The trees were attached to a 3/4" Cherry cobbler circle which had also been paper pierced - with a dimensional.  This was attached to a 1" Whisper white circle.

The sentiment is from Teeny Tiny wishes - the word "Merry" was highlighted with a marker and stamped on a piece of Whisper white card stock and punched with a 3/4" circle punch.  This circle was also paper pierced.  Using a dimensional it was attached to a 1" Cherry Cobbler circle, the edges of which were sponged with Whisper White ink so it would stand out from the designer paper.   A row of rhinestones were placed under the word.
