Samantha Walker Christmas Release - Holiday Magic

Hello Everyone!!  Did you enjoy the last two days of the JustRite/Samantha Walker Blog Hop?  Well, today the JustRite team are continuing with the brand new Samantha Walker release for July called Holiday Magic!!  What a fun, happy set this is!!  :)


I've created my base using the Spellbinders Romantic Rectangles die set and then layered with Chocolate Chip and a piece of white embossed with Spellbinders Venetian m-Bossibilies.  Across this I've added a strip of Chocolate Chip layered with red and topped with some white satin ribbon.  I've stamped the sentiment from Holiday Magic in Memento Rich Cocoa and cut it out with Large Oval Nestabilities and matted with red cut with Opulent Ovals Nestabilities and popped it up with X-press It Foam Tape.  I've then stamped the reindeer from Holiday Magic in Rich Cocoa and fussy cut it and adhered it to the bottom of the oval.  To finish I've added clear rhinestones to the corners.

Paper - Riding Hood Red, White, Chocolate Chip
Ink - Memento Rich Cocoa

How fun is that!!!!  :)  

For my creation today, I was inspired by Samantha's Leafy Background and Botanical Swirls Labels sets!  I began with a base of red and die cut the bottom with the Spellbinders A2 Scallop Borders One and then layered with some Very Vanilla cut with the same die set.  Next I stamped the Leafy Background in Memento Rich Cocoa onto White and used Gelatos (Lemon, Tangerine and Red Cherry) from the Gelatos Colors Gift Set to create the background colours and then die cut with the same set as before.  Around this I've attached a piece of red ribbon.  Next I've stamped the frame from Botanical Swirls Labels in Rich Cocoa, coloured the frame with Copic YR23 and stamped the sentiment from the same set in Memento Rhubarb Stalk.  I've cut it out with the matching die from Samantha Walker's Botanical Swirls and Accents die set.  I've matted this with red cut with Stately Circles Nestabilities and finished by adding a few pearls to the corners.


Stamps - Botanical Swirls and Labels, Leafy Background (JustRite)
Paper - Riding Hood Red, Very Vanilla, White
Ink - Memento Rich Cocoa, Rhubarb Stalk
Accessories - Spellbinders Botanical Swirls and Accents Die Set, Stately Circles Nestabilities, A2 Scallop Borders One, Red Satin Ribbon, Kaisercraft Pearls, X-press It Foam Tape.
