Season’s Givings Blog Hop 2014!

Season's Givings Image

Happy New Year and welcome to the Season’s Givings Blog Hop! Thanks for stopping by today!

I have a quick and fun card to share, oh yes, and a giveaway too!

BethPingry-NewYear3

I recently bought this stamp set from Unity Stamps and thought this one was perfect for New Year’s Day.

As far as resolutions…well, I did the seemingly impossible last year  – I ran a marathon! Yeah, 26.2 miles {actually by the time I turned off my Garmin it was at 26.7} so I’m not really looking to over-achieve in 2014. But I promise to fill up a prize box with fun stuff from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L (where I am DT Coordinator and I could be the only person with too much adhesive!) and maybe a few other goodies!

You’ll notice I used Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L’s Creative Photo Corners, 3D Foam Stars, 3D Foam Squares and E-Z Squares on this card, along with Jillibean Soup paper & stickers, Unity Stamp, Clearsnap Ink & Glitter, and Ranger Ink embossing powder.

Quick tutorial: Stamp the sentiment onto green cardstock with white ink, add white embossing powder and heat emboss. Trim cardstock around the sentiment, mount onto kraft cardstock. Add White Photo Corners, than adhere to card with 3D Foam Squares (I positioned them so they hold the photo corners onto the card, since the photo corners won’t be making contact with the card). Trim polka dot paper to 4 x 5 1/4″. Trim chevron paper to about 4 x 3/4″, adhere to polka dot paper, wrap with twine. Tie the twine in a simple knot. With a 3D Foam Star, remove the top layer to reveal adhesive side, cover with glitter. Place 3D Foam Star on top of knot.
Add stickers above the chevron paper, add more photo corners, and adhere to kraft card front, cut to 4 1/4 x 5 1/2″.

Season’s Greetings Card

I would start with a hearty Good Morning Sunshine! but I haven’t seen the sun in a few days. That’s OK, hopefully Mother Nature is saving it up for next week’s marathon…yeah, it is next week. But who’s counting (besides me, and I’ve had the big scary date embedded in my head since January!)

Anyhoo, I have a card on the Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® blog today, and I’ll share it here too. Go there to see a few close-ups.

Beth Pingry Seasons Greetings CardI used stamps from A Jillian Vance Design – this is not a guest post, but they sent me so many cool stamps to use, I have not had time to get to them all.

This card was inspired by the workshop I took over the weekend. I don’t take many classes, but did spend the weekend at Craft Fancy with the super awesome Wendy Vecchi! I had the chance to remember some techniques, and then to update those with new ideas and new products. Wow, so inspiring and fun!

So the watercolor paper was inked with Distress Ink and spritzed with water. The swirly tree stamp was heat embossed, and the 3D Foam Star was covered with glitter. I assembled the pieces with 3D Foam Squares. And you know I love photo corners!

Thanks for stopping by today!
