Chanukah, Hannukah, Chanukah

Traveling back in time today. Two of my sisters asked for Chanukah/Hannukah cards for adults and children.  I didn't have many new stamps for this holiday so I worked with what I had and tried some new twists. First off I used Papertrey Ink's Watercolor Wonder set for a modern look, then I used the powder embossing technique for a more traditional look and of course using dies for some of the elements.  Where I really had some fun was with the Papertrey Ink Scent-imentals stamp set.  This set is designed to make scratch and sniff cards.  This I thought would be fun for the kids cards.  Hope you like them and thanks for stopping by.

Rolly Polly Dreidels

These are the two children's Hanukkah cards I made for my sister. I stamped the dreidels from Papertrey Ink's Mazel Tov set, on card stock with Memento Paris Dusk and cut them out.  On the focal page I stamped the sentiment with Versamark and then embossed them.  After cutting the slot (twice with a Stampin Up punch) I pop dotted the image onto pennies (one on each side of the slot) then mounted it onto the card base with a double layer of dimensional tape.  It sounds a lot more complicated than it really is, but I think it makes a fun card.                                                          Hope you like it and thanks for stopping by

Happy Hanukkah


                                                 Hanukkah is coming up soon and my sister Ann asked me to make some Hanukkah/Chanukah cards for her.  She need adult and children cards and wanted some variations on them.  Well I was all set for her.  (The real truth is, I had received a new set from Papertrey Ink, Menorah Medley, with coordinating dies and I have another set from them, Mazeltov, so I called and asked her if she needed some so I could play with them.)
So I made 6 adult cards and 2 children's.  These are 3 of the adult cards using the dies and sentiment stamps.  With the different DP's it was easy to make a variety of cards.  Hope you like them and thanks for stopping by.
