Cards for L.I.F.T









Hello my craftin' friends, just want to stop by for a short minute to share with you the cards I made for my women's bible study. If you follow me on Pinterest you probably already seen them!  We are called L.I.F.T which stands for Ladies in Faith Together. I have 2 cards to share, a welcome card for all our first time visitors and a farewell card for our ladies that will be leaving us whether they are being relocated to a new base or they are redeploying home. Please continue to pray for our troops and their families as they continue to fight for the freedom of ourselves, our families, and our great nation. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you will bless someone today with a homemade card. Tarsha

Stampin' Up Snow Place Shaker Card




Hello my craftin' friends, today I would like to share a  shaker card using the Stampin' Up Snow Place stamp set.  I use my Cricut Explorer to cut the Igloo for the shaker portion of the card. I also use the Cricut to cut the snow banks.  The large snowflakes were cut using the Martha Stewart snowflake punch.



This card I embossed the snowflakes using Wow white embossing powder and I applied Tim Holtz' Blueprint Sketch distress ink using a Ranger mini ink blending tool. The snow was created using Stampin' Up Dazzling Diamonds glitter.  


On this card I changed it up a little. I stamped the snowflakes using Hero Arts Unicorn pigment ink. 


It is hard to see on this card but I use the Stampin' Up Softly Falling embossing folder to add some texture to the card and create the snow. The shakers are filled with snowflake confetti and  sequins.
Thanks for stopping by, until next time be Blessed. I hope you will bless someone with a homemade card.
