December blog hop


Merry Christmas and Happy New year!   
Welcome to the Joyful Stars Blog hop.  Creating with paper is very relaxing and joyful. Each month we share what we have been making in hope to inspire you.  So look for the highlighted name at the bottom of each post and click on it to hop to the next blog, keep hopping until you get back here.
  
Here are some cards I would like to share with you.  

This is from Jingle Joy Scrapbooking page 9 in the Nov/Dec catalog. Z3896 with thin cuts. This set also comes with ornaments and the words Just Believe.  






These cards were created with our NEW Distress Oxide inks, the stamp set is from Spruced  Up D1902. This set is from last year and is still available online.  Joyce.ctmh.com 








This is one of many gift card holders, I used Serenity paper (X7263B) for this card, silver foil paper and the bow was from the Cricut.  When you lift the lid your gift card pops up.  



 Enjoy your Holidays and have a Blessed New Year! 
 

Now it's time to hop over to Nancy's blog to be awestruck by her creation.

Welcome to our monthly Joyful Stars blog hop.  We love to share with you our creations and hope to inspire you to create your own creations.  Look at the bottom of each blog for the highlighted name to hop to the next blog and keep hopping until you get back here.  



This month, as most month's I want to share a few things that I have been working on.  
Christmas Gnomes are not just for Christmas. I made this gnome for a birthday card, replaced the star on the end of the hat with a heart.  The white glitter paper was colored with the tri-blend mark that I used for the hat





Some samples of the Distress Oxide inks. The slim card at the top was made using The Jubilee Crew C1879 or with thin cuts Z3901 page 29 The snow mounds were made with Fancy borders Z3682 page 60 Core catalog. Merry Christmas is from the Seasonal borders D1976 Page 35 Core catalog. 
The bottom left card was made with Spruced up Scrapbooking D1902 Jan/Feb 2020 (still available)
The right card Gnome for Christmas D1982 or with thin cuts Z3902  The Distress Oxide inks were peacock feathers and chipped sapphire.







Now it's time to hop to my friend Nancy's blog and see her beautiful artwork.

Welcome to our monthly Joyful Stars blog hop.  Every month we share with you what we have been working on.  So at the end of each blog, look for the highlighted name and click on it to hop to the next blog.  You will get back to this blog and we hope we have inspired you to create your own projects.  


This month I want to show you some of the cards I made using our NEW Distress Oxide inks.  The possibilities are endless.  There are many techniques and I hope to show them on my future videos on my FB page.  


The two cards on the left are using the October stamp of the month. 

Distress Oxide ink make the backgrounds very bright.  Top right cards is a shaker card, yes we now have heart shape shaker die cuts and foam, also star shapes.  




This card is not one of the four cards, I black embossed the Oct SOM heart and filled it in with Distress Oxide inks, the background was embossed in white and sponged with peacock feathers.  



                                
Hope you enjoyed these cards, have blessed month.

September Joyful Stars Blog hop

Welcome to the monthly Joyful Stars blog hop.  This is a blog hop where you can go from one site to another.  You will get to see some NEW products from our seasonal Sept/Oct catalog and from the Annual Core catalog.  You can get both from FREE just by placing an order with your consultant.  So look for the highlighted name at the bottom of the post and click on it.



This month was hard to choose because we have soooooo many new products to play with.  I would like to show you a stamp set called Floral Detail and Background.  This looks good embossed in silver or gold to make an anniversary card.  It also has 4 M size stamps that compliment this stamp.
They fit in the circle where I have the numbers.  Stamping this in black and coloring in the flowers looks really good, also. (See last photo)  I like the 5 stamps that come with this set to use as accents.





Floral Detail and Background

C1868 page 31 Core catalog





These cards were made using Party time paper and Wishing you Everything stamp set.  The best thing about this paper collection is you can make your card in pink or blue, just by flipping the paper.
