This month's new release is all about my favorite holiday...CHRISTMAS! Today, I created a fun and cozy card using the fabulous, new Chair Die with the Relax Stamp Set and Relax Outline Dies. Of course I had to add a sweet, little girl gnome to complete the scene.


To create the pattern on the wall, I used the Fabric Stencil which is the FREEBIE offer this weekend. For the girl gnome, I used Girl Gnome Dies, Gnome Dies: Girl Gnome Face Add Ons, Gnome Dies: Medical Add Ons (arms), Gnome Dies: Gingerbread Add Ons (hot cocoa mug), and Gnome Dies: Christmas Add Ons 1 (hat and cookie). To create dimension, I raised parts of the chair and parts of the gnome on foam tape.

Jaded Blossom October 2024 Release: SNEAK PEEK DAY 1

Happy Monday Friends! Today, we are on Day 1 of Sneak Peeks for the Jaded Blossom October 2024 Release. You can grab the "Gotta Have It Now Package" for a discounted amount. If you wait until the release goes live, the bundle price will go up.

This month's new release is all about my favorite holiday...CHRISTMAS! And what's a popular gift for the holiday season? GIFT CARDS! They are practical and easy to carry especially when you are shopping for a large family. I tweaked the Gnome Gift Card Slider Die and Gnome Gift Card Slider: Chimney Add On to create a little house with a smaller chimney for the Santa Gnome! 

I altered the gift card holder by cutting the gnome off so I could place it behind the smaller chimney. I cut a square panel using the Card Mat Dies, and layered on 3 rows of bricks. I left the bricks off the bottom of the square so I could line it up against the back edge of the gift card panel. I glued the chimney in place, and then glued the Santa gnome behind the chimney. The gnome's mustache and smaller nose are from Gnome Dies: Gnome Face Add Ons 1.

To create the brick house holder, I used the Gnome Gift Card Slider: Chimney Add On. I trimmed the top corners to make it look more like a roof, and added white Liquid Applique to create puffy snow. I then cut an icicle border using Winter Banner Dies 2 and glued it behind the roof before adhering it with foam tape to the top of the brick layer. The door is from the Chimney Add On, and the little windows were created using Square Internal Scallops Dies 1.

The last step was adding sentiments from the new Gnome Peeking Stamp Set behind the gift card and also on the back.

Sweet November Stamps: Word Card Making Day FALL SCRAPPY!

Happy Sunday friends! Yesterday was World Card Making Day and to celebrate Sweet November Stamps is giving away this adorable FREE digital stamp called WCMD Fall Scrappy. Today is the last day to snatch him up! They are also doing additional freebies if you create something using Fall Scrappy and post in the Friends of Sweet November Facebook Group and on Instagram (see the details below). 

When I saw him, I knew I wanted to create a Polaroid card and zoom in on his happy expression as he gets ready to indulge in his pup cup. Isn't he the cutest?!!

I cut my white cardstock at 4.25 x 5.5 and then used a square die to cut out the center. I colored the image with Copic Markers. The sentiment is from Diamond Press Farmhouse Wreath Stamp and Die Kit.


If you create a card using WCMD Fall Scrappy, be sure to stop by the Friends of Sweet November Facebook Group and share it to get a 2nd free digi called WCMD Halloween Scrappy. If you share to Instagram using #sweetnovemberstamps, you will get a 3rd free digi called WCMD Christmas Scrappy. 


Also, be sure to sign up for the Sweet November Newsletter (at the bottom of the store site) because every month you will receive a FREE  digital image!

Hugs,
Rosie

I Am Roses + Pixie Gnome Creations Wizard Magic Gnome Clipart

Happy Monday friends! Can you believe it's already the end of September? For me that means a lot of birthday and holiday cards coming up. Sometimes, you need to put together a card quickly. As much as I love coloring, when I need to put together a quick card, I LOVE using pre-colored digital clipart. You can use these images for cards, busted canvases, and home decor pieces...the possibilities are endless! I found the cutest, most adorable gnome bundle on Etsy from Pixie Gnome Creations called Watercolor Wizard Magic Gnome Clipart Bundle. All of their gnome bundles are ADORABLE!

I also used a free digital paper file from Creative Fabrica called Watercolor Pastel Rainbow Skies Digital Paper, which coordinated perfectly with the gnome clipart. The sentiment is from an Echo Park Paper Pad called Witches and Wizards 2. The stars were made using a My Favorite Things Die. 
 
 
To take the card to the next level, I added gorgeous flowers from I Am Roses. The large flowers are R43 Unicorn Peonies followed by S3 baby blue cherry blossoms, and S10m soft pink flowers. The leaves were created by cutting apart white medium poinsettia petals, and inking the edges with pink distress ink.

 
Remember, you have until October 8th to link up your project on the IAR Blog. Be sure to use a minimum of 3 I Am Roses products on your card to qualify for a prize. I can't wait to see what you make!

Hugs,
Rosie

Conie Fong: SUCCULENT & CACTUS BUNDLE

Happy Sunday friends! Have you checked out Conie Fong's FREE drawing videos on her YouTube Channel called DRAW WITH CONIE? Conie walks you step-by-step on how to draw simple images. If you have ever been interested in drawing or need an activity to keep the kids entertained, then head over and Subscribe! She is also loading these images into her ConieFongArt Etsy Store so you can purchase the digital line art to color if you don't want to draw them.

Today's card features a cute kawaii cactus image from the SUCCULENT AND CACTUS BUNDLE. I needed a Thank You Card and this image was quick to color. I also kept the card on the simple side by using patterned paper and navy cardstock. 

The scallop circle die is from Jaded Blossom. I added a strip of navy cardstock behind the image and raised the circle on foam tape for extra dimension. The sentiment was typed in MS Word under the image before printing.

I hope you grab some images from Conie Fong and share your creations in the Conie Fong Art and Design Facebook Group. Conie also created a separate group to share your drawings if you give them a try. Head over and join the Draw With Conie Facebook Group to share your drawings. We would love to Ooooh and Aaaaah over your work!

Hugs,
Rosie

Jaded Blossom: It's Your Birthday, Let's BOOGIE!

Happy Friday everyone! We recently had a Spooky Release, and the Gnome Friends: Ghost Die is one of my favorites! It's really versatile and perfect for so many different occasions. For today, I created a ghostly birthday card using one of the sentiments from the Ghostly Greeting Stamp Set, along with the Outline Dies. The cute faces were created using the Ghost Faces Stamp Set.


To make this card even more fun, I added the ghosts on action wobbles so they shake...or should I say BOOGIE! To see the video of them in action, head to the Jaded Blossom Facebook Page


Remember, we have a current ANYTHING GOES Challenge until October 5th for a chance at winning a free stamp set! You don't have to have a blog to play along. You can load your card to the Jaded Blossom's Garden of Creativity Facebook Group and then add your link from Facebook. There are instructions HERE to help you!

And be sure to check out the Jaded Blossom Store for all your stamps and gift giving supplies. They have various Cutting Dies to make party favors along with Favor Bags and Boxes. 
 
Have a great weekend!
