Reindeer Fun Bundle for the Tag Sketch Challenge- Inspirations In Ink- November 2024

Posted on November 27, 2024November 24, 2024 by Theresa's Treasures

Here is my Reindeer Fun Bundle Tag for the Inspiration in Ink Tag Sketch Challenge!

Welcome! Thank you for visiting Theresa’s Treasures Paper Crafts! I am Theresa, a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator in Arizona, USA. Today is the monthly Inspirations in Ink Blog Hop! I am excited to be hopping with such talented demonstrators today!

Today is a Sketch Challenge for a tag instead of a card! Be sure to check out everyone’s projects. For my project, I used the Reindeer Fun Bundle from the 2024 Holiday Mini Catalog. When you are ready, you may order from my Online Store HERE.

I chose the Reindeer Fun Bundle because I wanted to have the reindeer as part of my tag. I decided to make him leaping over the tree tops! The Winter Meadow Designer Series Paper (DSP) came in handy for that.

Measurements

Pecan Pie cardstock tag base: 3″ x 5″
Sentimental Christmas DSP: Snowflake Design: 2 3/4″ x 4 3/4″
Basic White cardstock: 1/2″ x 3″ (sentiment) and 3 1/2″ x 4 1/2″ (to stamp the snowflake, deer and bells)
Shaded Spruce cardstock: 1 3/4″ x 1 3/4″ (for wreath)
Winter Meadow DSP: Tree design, 2 3/4″ x 2 3/4″ to die cut with a Deckled Circle Die

Supplies

Stamp Set: Reindeer Fun, Snowy Wonder and Greetings of the Season
Dies: Reindeer Fun and Deckled Circles
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black Ink Pad, Real Red Ink Pad and Pecan Pie Ink Pad
Stampin’ Blends Alcohol Markers: Light & Dark Pecan Pie, Medium Combo Pack, Medium Deep Combo Pack and Medium Light Combo Pack for the deer, and Light & Dark Wild Wheat for the bells.
Stampin’ Write Marker: Real Red to color the ribbon on the bells
Embellishment: Iridescent Faceted Gems
Ribbon: Real Red & Gold 3/8″ Dotted Ribbon and Gold & Silver 1/8″ Trim Combo Pack (both are Online Exclusives)

Instructions

Line up the Pecan Pie Snowflake DSP and the Pecan Pie cardstock so the top edges are even. On the back of the Pecan Pie cardstock, make a mark 3/4″ in from each side on the top, and 3/4″ down from the top on each side. Cut between the two marks to make the tag top.
Separate the DSP and cardstock. Adhere the DSP so that there is a border all the way around.
Stamp the leaping deer and bells onto the Basic White cardstock with Memento Ink, Color with the Stampin’ Blends Markers as desired. Die cut the deer and bells.
Use the Real Red Ink to stamp “Merry Christmas” onto the strip of Basic White cardstock.
Stamp “To:” and “From:” from the Greetings of the Season stamp set onto the back of the Pecan Pie cardstock tag base.

Use the Pecan Pie Ink to stamp the snowflake from the Snowy Wonder stamp set onto the Basic White cardstock. Die cut it out with one of the Deckled Circle Dies.
Die cut a 2 1/2″ diameter circle with the Deckled Circle Dies from the Winter Meadow DSP.
Position all of the pieces on the front of the Pecan Pie cardstock/snowflake DSP tag base.
Adhere the Pecan Pie snowflake first.
Then use Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere the Winter Meadow DSP.
Add the wreath and bells.
Now use Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere the deer and sentiment.
Punch a hole in the top of the tag. Pull the Real Red & Gold 3/8″ Dotted Ribbon through the hole. Tie the Gold trim around the ribbon into a bow.
Embellish with the Iridescent Faceted Gems. I placed the gems in the center of the snowflakes. The photos do not show them very well.

Voila!

Around the World On Wednesday Blog Hop-November 2024- Color Challenge with Decorative Trees

Posted on November 13, 2024November 12, 2024 by Theresa's Treasures

Hello and welcome! I am Theresa McEntee, creator of Theresa’s Treasures Paper Crafts. Today I have the pleasure of participating in the Blog Hop with Around the World on Wednesday (AWOW) organized by Angie McKenzie for this Holiday Vibes Color Challenge with Decorative Trees.

On the second Wednesday of each month, the AWOW team put together a thematic hop to give you some inspiration for your own crafting. The challenge is very exciting today!

There were two color palettes to choose from- Traditional Colors & Coastal Colors. So this month’s theme for me ended up being “This or That?”since I couldn’t decide which color palette to go with.

Here are my four cards showcasing the beautiful colors of each palette.

The Traditional Colors are Garden Green, Real Red, Lemon Lolly, Lemon Lime Twist and Peach Pie. The Coastal Colors are Coastal Cabana, Flirty Flamingo, Soft Sea Foam, Balmy Blue and Highland Heather.

My Project for today

This card was made with the Decorative Trees Bundle. The Merry Christmas sentiment came from the Reindeer Fun stamp set.

The reason I found this so exciting is that it challenged me to figure out which colors to use, and how to combine them onto one card. And I had a great time making all of the little stars and ornaments to decorate the trees with!

This card is made with the Traditional Colors. It does take a little time to make as you will be die cutting the trees, stars, garlands and ornaments. It is a lot of fun as well!

The Coastal Colors are used to create this card. Anotrher fun creation!

The other supplies I used are: Country Woods Designer Series Paper, Pecan Pie Cardstock, Crumb Cake Cardstock, Silver Trim (Online Exclusive), Rhinestone Basic Jewels and the Adhesive Sheets.

TIP: In order to avoid getting glue or tape where you don’t want it, use the Adhesive sheets on the top layer of the trees as well as for all of the decorations.

This or That?

Let me know it you like: This?-Traditional Colors or That?-Coastal Colors in the comments.

The AWOW Team

I am so glad you have joined me today in this worldwide hug that stretches all the way from Australia to Alaska across twelve different time zones. Each month this group of creative friends prepare a project for a theme. Below is an image of the whole crew and where they are from around the globe. Such a talented and wonderful group of people!

I decided to make a Christmas card with the Hey Chuck chickens to spotlight the versatility of this set. I stamped the hat and scarf from the Beary Cute stamp set in the 2023 Mini Catalog. The lovely sentiment is also from the Beary Cute stamp set.

Stamp two hats and one scarf in Shaded Spruce Ink. Fussy cut.
Also use the Shaded Spruce Ink to stamp the “Merry Christmas” sentiment from Beary Cute onto the 1/2″ x 3″ Basic White cardstock strip. Cut the ends into a banner.
Use Poppy Parade Ink to stamp “Rise and Shine” on the Deckled Rectangle (portrait orientation). I had to stamp a few stars around the inside sentiment because I was covering up a halo-oopsy!

Adhere this to the card front, slightly to the left.
Use Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere the Deckled Circle to the card front.

Grassy Grove and Horse & Sleigh for the Ink and Inspiration Blog Hop-October 2023

Posted on October 26, 2023October 24, 2023 by Theresa's Treasures

Hello fellow stampers! You are visiting with Theresa McEntee-author of Theresa’s Treasures Paper Crafts. I am hopping with the Ink & Inspiration Blog Hop today. There are several of us- you will find the list to follow the hop at the end of my blog post.

The Ink & Inspiration Challenge is both an image and a color challenge. I was inspired by the trees and sun because I felt a feeling of serenity while I was looking at the image. The color combination is just gorgeous! Many of my faves!

How To

Measurements are at the end of the blog.
Start out with the One Horse Open Sleigh Designer Series Paper on the left. I thought it was a little barren. After looking through all my stamp sets, I found the perfect tree in the Grassy Grove stamp set.
Tear a piece of copy paper to make an uneven edge and use as a mask so that the trees appear further away. Stamp some trees in Starry Sky Ink. The mask also provides an edge to make a snow drift for the trees to be behind. Use a Small Blending Brush with the Starry Sky Ink and a light layer to make a soft snowdrift in front of the trees.
Diecut the sun with the smallest of the Deckled Circle Dies from a piece of full stick sticky paper. Tip: Diecut through 2 or more sticky sheets so that the top one will still have a full stick.
Apply a light layer of Crushed Curry Ink with a Small Blending Brush where you want the sun to be. Stick the sun mask on. Blend on more Crushed Curry Ink, then blend on a little Pumpkin Pie just around the edge.
To make the sun’s rays, use a scrap piece of Basic White cardstock and a Small Blending Brush. Apply a small amount of Crushed Curry Ink to the brush and very gently blend the color along the edge of the scrap of cardstock. Move the scrap a little and repeat until all the rays are done.
Add more trees in Mossy Meadow Ink and Blackberry Bliss Ink.
The sentiment is from the Horse & Sleigh stamp set. Stamp the sentiment for the front of the card in Starry Sky Ink onto a strip of Basic White cardstock measuring 5/8″ x 4 1/4″.
The clouds come from the Trucking Along stamp set and are stamped in Gray Granite Ink.

Use the torn piece of copy paper again to create the inside of the card. Stamp the trees that are in the background with Starry Sky Ink. Then as you move closer, stamp the trees in Mossy Meadow Ink then Blackberry Bliss Ink. Use a Small Blending Brush and a light layer of the Starry Sky Ink to make the snowdrifts.
Stamp the sentiments for the inside of the card in Starry Sky Ink.
Adhere all of the corresponding cardpieces. Use Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere the front panel.

Add Bling

Use the 2022-24 In Color Pearls for the Bling by applying 3 of the Starry Sky pearls.

Measurements

This is a 5″ x 7″ card.

Starry Sky cardstock card base: 7″ x 10″ scored at 5″.
Basic White cardstock: 4″ x 6″ and 5/8″ x 4 1/4″
One Horse Open Sleigh Designer Series Paper (DSP): 4″ x 6″
Blackberry Bliss cardstock: two at 4 1/4″ x 6 1/4″

Cut out the smaller frame from the Thick Basic White cs.
Use the Stamparatus to stamp the sentiment “Thank you with all my Heart” in Stazon Black Ink onto the oval created when you cut the large frame from the Vellum cs.
Adhere the stamped Vellum cs oval to the Thick Basic White cs oval with Mini Glue Dots around the edges such that they will be covered with the flowers.

Adhere the Vellum/Thick Basic White cs oval to the center of the large frame.

Inspirations in Ink-Christmas in July Blog Hop-July 2022-Stampin’ Up! Trees for Sale Whimsical Christmas Card

Posted on July 27, 2022July 28, 2022 by Theresa's Treasures

Welcome to the monthly Inspirations in Ink Blog Hop showcasing my Trees for Sale Whimsical Christmas Card. This month the theme is “Christmas in July”. The stamp set I chose for this card is Trees for Sale. I also used the Whimsical Woodland 3D Embossing Folder and the Fabulous Frame Dies.

Here’s how to make a Trees for Sale Whimsical Christmas Card for yourself:

Measurements/ Supplies

Mint Macaron card stock card base: 4 1/4 x 11 inches scored at
5 1/2 inches
Shaded Spruce card stock: two 4 x 5 1/4 inches embossed with the Whimsical Woodland 3D embossing folder
Real Red card stock: two cut with the Fabulous Frames die
Basic White card stock: two cut with the Fabulous Frames die, a 3/4 x 3 inch strip for the sentiment and a scrap for stamping the dog
Ink: Memento, White Craft, Mint Macaron, Shaded Spruce, Balmy Blue and Soft Suede
Stampin’ Up! Masking Paper
Red Rhinestone Basic Jewels
Stampin’ Blends Alcohol Markers: Dark Daffodil Delight, Dark Real Red and Light Night of Navy
Basic Black Stampin’ Write Marker
Stampin’ Dimensionals

Instructions for the Trees for Sale Whimsical Christmas Card

Step 1- 3D Technique

Start by using the White Craft Ink pad to drag it across both Shaded Spruce card stock card pieces embossed with the Whimsical Woodland 3D embossing folder. The “before and after” is pictured above. The White Craft Ink really helps the tree design pop! Set aside to dry.

Step 2-Stamping with Stampin’ Up! Masking Paper

Take the center out of both of the Basic White card stock Fabulous Frame die cuts to stamp on.
Use Soft Suede Ink to stamp the “trees for sale” sign on one of the Basic White card stock card pieces. Stamp a sign on a piece of the Masking Paper. (I used a pink sticky note so you could see what I was masking a little better)
Fussy cut the sign from the Masking Paper. Cover the trees for sale sign on the stamped card piece with the Masking Paper sign.
Use Mint Macaron Ink to stamp the solid small and medium sized trees.
Stamp a small tree on the Masking Paper and fussy cut it.
Use Shaded Spruce to stamp the detailed tree on the small tree only.
Cover the small tree with the tree you cut from the Masking Paper.

Step 3-More Masking

Use Shaded Spruce ink to stamp the detailed tree on all the medium trees.
Remove the Masking Paper from the small tree and the Trees for Sale sign.

Step 4-Stamping the Scene

Next use the Gorgeous Grape Ink and the medium sized snowflakes to stamp in the empty spaces.

To finish this card piece, stamp in Misty Moonlight Ink using the group of tiny snowflakes. This may not look great at this point, but when it is cut up and adhered to the card it will look fantastic!

More Stamping

The next step is to stamp the front of the card. Start by using the Misty Moonlight Ink to stamp the sentiment “Thank You Snow Much” onto the 2 1/2 x 3 3/4 inch Basic White CS. Then Stamp Off once using the largest snowflake with Highland Heather Ink. Using the next to the largest snowflake, stamp at full strength using Highland Heather Ink.

Use the Gorgeous Grape Ink to stamp a medium sized snowflake around the edges.

Finish this card piece by stamping the group of medium snowflakes in Misty Moonlight Ink.

Use the Misty Moonlight Ink with the group of medium snowflakes to stamp around the upper left-hand corner of the 4 x 5 1/4 inch Basic White CS. This will be the inside of the card.

Assembling the Snowflake Wishes Thank You Gift Card Holder

The first step is to cut up the DSP that you made. Cut at 2 1/4 inches and 3 1/4 inches.

Fold the Gorgeous Grape CS card base at the 5 1/2 inch score line. Then fold at the 2 1/2 inch score line. Adhere the 2 3/4 x 4 inch DSP to the left and the 2 1/4 x 4 inch DSP to the right.

Adhere the 4 x 5 1/4 inch Basic White CS to the inside. Then adhere the 1 x 4 inch DSP to the right-hand side of the Basic White CS.
