Card making, rubber stamping techniques and project videos for papercrafters

Center Stage Spotlight Design Team Blog Hop!

Welcome to our first Center Stage Spotlight Design Team Blog Hop!

Jessica Fick, the Design Team Coordinator for GinaK Designs has issued a challenge to all of the past and present team CSS team members to make a Christmas card with one of these sketches:

I hope you enjoy my creation! I used Mel's Have a Cookie set to create these ornaments. The cookies were stamped, colored using pencils and oms, cut out, and highlighted with Stickles. I added some branch punches to the top of my circle and used some gold cord to hang them. The snowflakes in the background and the sentiment are from Gina K's Holiday Hospitality set. DP and CS is Basic Gray - Fruitcake. All sponging was done using SU! ink in Old Olive and Riding Hood Red. Sewing, paper piercing, Primas and brads were used for embellishment.

We know you're going to LOVE what everyone has designed for us tonight!
