Christmas in July with Blue Knight Rubber Stamps: Winter Buddies

Hi guys!
This is the last Christmas in July card project.
Next month, more fun and creative card projects from
Blue Knight Rubber Stamps.
Today I'm creating with Winter Buddies.  It is a fun one
too!! 

The top card is embossed with black embossing powder and
colored with panpastels. The foliage is added from the 
Silhouette Cattails stamp and it is embossed also.  A holly berry is 
painted on the top hat of the snowman.  The sentiment is from

the Christmas Koala stamp set.  The bird is from Birds II set.
The card is speckled with white acrylic paint.  
The bottom card is embossed also and colored in with
panpastels.  The winter sun is a circle stencil and then I
use an eraser to remove the color.  The sentiment is embossed with
 red glitter embossing powder.  I used white acrylic paint on edges
 of both cards.  All adhesive used is by 
Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.

Scrapbooking with Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L~ Ranch Life!

Hi guys!
Today I'm sharing a scrapbook page using a
paper collection by PhotoPlay called The Great Outdoors
over on the Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L Blog.  Using the
E-Z Runner Grand Repositionable Dots Refillable Dispenser
really helped getting the bottom border where it needed to be. 
It took a coupe of times to get it right.

As always I have a tutorial with step out photos on the Scrapbook
Adhesives by 3L Blog. I hope you will take a look.

The border up close with added stickers and word stickers.
I used 3D Foam Squares White Mix for this. 

The letters for the title are adhered with the Dual Tip Glue Pen
 by HomeHobby by 3L.

New Stencils by Darkroom Door ~ Three Circles set.

Hi guys!
I have another NEW RELEASE by Darkroom Door.
This is really a fun one!! It is called Three
Circles set.  Makes great abstract projects!!

The stencil I'm creating with is on the second row, first one .
This stencil is also a great tool for adding the sun and
moon in a scenery project. 

The top card is created using Distress Oxide inks. I added 
small stencils to the circles to create more of an abstract feel to
the card.  The stencils used are Mesh, Diamonds and Checkered.
The sentiment is from the Adventure Sentiment set.
The second card is using Archival ink and Distress Oxide ink.
The circles are using the Leaf Green Archival ink and the Wild
Flowers stencil are added with Prize Ribbon Distress Oxide ink.
Highlights were added the the Wild Flowers with white
acrylic paint.  The sentiment is from the Friendship Sentiment set.
All adhesive is by Scrapbook Adhesive by 3L.

Christmas in July with Blue Knight Rubber Stamps: Winter Farmland

 Hi guys!
Christmas in July is still happening
with Blue Knight Rubber Stamps.  Today
I'm creating with Winter Farmland.  This stamps makes
a great Christmas card.

The top card is stamped with Archival Jet Black ink and
colored with panpastels.  What makes this card unique is
the rock ledge is masked off so the deer family could be added
to the card.  I used Buck, Doe & Fawn and Christmas
Koala for the silhouette deer and the sentiment. 
The bottom card is clear embossed and then shaded with
Distress Oxide ink/Stormy Sky. Two deer from the 
Buck, Doe & Fawn set were added along with
the sentiment from the Christmas Koala set.  This card
was speckled with white acrylic paint.

New Stencils by Darkroom Door~ Round Arch Set.

Hi guys!!
Darkroom Door has NEW STENCILS and they are the bomb!!!

These are great for mixed media and cards. I got to create with
three different stencils.  The first one is the Round Arch Set.
That is the top row, first stencil to the left.

The Round Arch Stencil screamed window to me, so 
that is how I created with it. The color is added using
panpastels.  The background is created using the 
Brick Wall stencil with Archival ink. The leaves are from the
Carved Leaves Vol.1 (one of my fave sets) stamped with
Archival ink. The sentiment and the bird came
from the Love Birds set.  Also added the a sentiment 
strip from the Friendship set.
  The second card is created in the 
same way using panpastels for the color.  I also used 
the NEW Three Circles Stencil set, Brick Wall stencil, Take
Flight and Carved Leaves Vol.1.  The sentiments are
from the Adventure Sentiment set and the Friendship
Sentiment set. 
Both cards are distressed with acrylic paint.
