New Embossing Folders...

Wow... I opened a box this yesterday to find the new Cuttlebug Embossing Plus folders... I only bought two of them for myself... but they are all great... I bought this one... which I love... it is called Deco Burst...
I did very little to this one, so that you could see the embossing folder easier...

There is really a wonderful center for this also... you will see that on the next card.. 

I am trying to use up odds and ends around the studio also... as my bins and bags are getting filled and I need to use some of these things...





This is one of the items that was in a bin... the center piece all punched and ready to use... and also the black cardstock card... so these went hand in hand, perfect!!!!

So you get to see the inside as well with this one... I usually dont' stamp anything in the center of my cards... I love to hand write a note or sentiment in there... so this is no exception...


This is the Deco Burst... and really a wonderfuly folder...













Here's the other one I made with the same folder... 





This one is has the center piece in it.. I used my Antique Linen distressing ink to show the design a little bit more.. 
The poinsettias on both cards are from Pretties by Bonnie
and they are two different sizes...

Both of these cards are 5 x 7 size... and even though they are lumpy, I hope they go thru on a single stamp... .










Now this one is called Whimsy ... and it also has a center by I have not used it here... in fact I made a lattice for the center.. a little spring like, but I am already wishing for Spring... LOL... truth...

So I used some pink... and then some pink poinsettias and a RED cardinal and then a piece of Grunge flourish which I used gold on it...

I do like this folder as well... so many things to use both of these folders for... my mind is spinning... just need a lot of time to produce all these cards and ideas...



Okay... so that was the Provo Delivery... but a few hours later... the Fed Ex man arrived with the Spellbinder order... yikes... I was bad there too...

I got one of the new GRAND Sets... Label 4.... and this is how I have used it for this first card...

I folded it in half.. and then stamped holly leaves all over the ivy green bassill paper... this card is 6x6 and so you can get an idea of the size of this... this is not the largest one.. as I dont' have anyway, other than a rolling pin to use it...

I used a holly wreath from Pretties by Bonnie and then a cardinal from Heartfelt... 

The back white punched circle was made by using the Blue Hill punch... this one has a bird theme... love them...

So that was my day... today we went and got our eyes examined ... yikes... that was costly... but well worth it...

Hope you have had a good day... enjoy your evening... and thanks for stopping by for a visit... some day I hope that I will be able to go around and visit all these fantastic blogs... being on dial up it takes a little to long to view one blog... over 30 minutes of download for me... so I spend my time creating and posting... the posting takes more time than the creating... LOL... not funny Bonnie...

Oh well.. thanks again... and have a fun creative time... Love, Light and Peace...Bonnie

  6. As usual, I am floored by your creativity!! Lovely cards, but that cardinal knocks my socks off, GF!!
    I am not enjoying PT for my hand, but trudging through, and hoping by the first of the year I will have some bendability, and not so much pain. Hard to type....I'm used to using BOTH hands. takes me 4X as long. Think of you often, and hope you are well and enjoying life! Hugs!!
