Christmas Labels

Are you starting to plan your Christmas Cards?
I know it seems early but it's about time to get started.
This is a card we made at my Big Shot Class featuring the Tags & Labels Framelits.
Merry & BrightThe card base is Old Olive with a layer of Real Red.  I added a piece of the
Merry Moments designer paper.  I added the words from Lots of Joy stamp set with Old Olive ink on Whisper White cardstock and cut out using a Label Framelit.
That is layered on a Real Red label and then an Old Olive label.
This is attached to the card front with dimensionals.

You Make My Heart Smile

This card is perfect for the first day of school.
By day, I work in a Catholic High School.
(I'm the bookkeeper/office manager/business manager)
Today is the first day of classes for all of our students.
It's nice to see the halls filled with excited young adults
and it makes me smile just to watch them.
Heart SmileThe card base is Thick Whisper White cardstock.  I added a strip of
Basic Black that I embossed with the Boho Chic Embossing Folder.
The designer paper is from Everyday Chic.  I used the label framelit
from the Tags & Labels Framelit set to cut a hole in the center of the designer
paper.  Next I had a smaller square of Melon Mambo and I used the next
smaller label framelit to cut a hole in the center.  I adhered the Melon Mambo
piece to the back of the designer paper.  Next I laid this onto the white rectangle
and stamped the words from Timeless Love stamp set in the center of the opening using Stazon ink.  I stamped the flower from Crazy About You with Melon Mambo ink and punched it out with the coordinating Flower Medallion Punch.

Bomb Pop

Summer is almost over so I thought I better hurry and share this card.
We made this at my Big Shot class Monday night.
My sister, Tina Rappe, made this card last month (inspiration came from Erica Cerwin) and I fell in love with it.  It was a perfect card for the Big Shot Class which featured the Tags & Labels Framelits.  This card was a favorite for most of the ladies at class.

Bomb PopThe card base is the Thick Whisper White.  I added a layer of Basic Gray.
I used the Elegant Dots to emboss the Island Indigo and Watermelon Wonder strips.
I stamped "Just as Sweet as can be" from the Sweet Stack stamp set with Watermelon Wonder ink on a strip of Whisper White cardstock.

For the Bomb Pop — I adhered Island Indigo and Watermelon Wonder cardstocks to a piece of Whisper White and then used the 1 1/4" and 1" tag framelit to cut the top and bottom edges.

Untitled
The ladies loved this trick.  Put the Bomb Pop over the flat end of the tag and then under the scallop edge.  When you run it through the Big Shot it will cut only the scallop edge.  Pretty cool.  I used dimensionals to raise the skinny pop onto the wider pop and then dimensionals again to adhere the pop to the card.
