First Card using Minc

Hi everyone hope you all had a wonderful holiday season. This is my first post for the new year, I have been finding it really difficult to get back into my crafty groove since Christmas holidays, so hopefully this will help me.

Becca Feekan inspired me to buy a Minc machine when I saw her tutorial here on how to use the .Minc to create boarders around my dies, so now I am now a proud owner of a Minc.  I have been playing around with the settings on my printer trying to get the toner right for scanning my dies, it has taken me a bit of playing around but I am getting closer. This is my first creation using the Minc.

To make this card I used Spellbinders Dies Labels Thirty-Four, A2 Matting Basics. Penny Black Stamp HeartFelt Thanks. Heidi Swap Minc Machine.

JustRite Non-Traditional Christmas Card

Hi everyone I have been away on vacation, which I enjoyed so very much, so I didn't have time to play in my craft corner at all, but on the bright side while I was away I got to go craft shopping. Yeah!!  I didn't get a chance to play along in the last challenge at JustRite, so hurried to try to get a card done so I could enter it into this challenge. The challenge at JustRite this week is to create a project using the theme Non-Traditional Christmas.

To make this card I used JustRite Stamps Merry and Bright, and Festive Poinsettia. Dies used were Spellbinders A2 Matting Basics A, Decorative Labels Twenty-Eight, and Layered Poinsettia. Memory Box die Cabrini Ornament. Design paper used is from My Mind's Eye Merry Little Christmas. To color the ornament I used Copic markers RV21, R83 and B32. Images and sentiment were embossed using Queen's Gold embossing powder from The Artful Stamper.
