Free Skate Lake


It's a new Stampin' Up! year for Kylie's blog hop and I am thrilled to be participating along with many talented demonstrators from around the world!

My card was created for a Holiday catalogue swap and, believe it or not, I used to be a figure skater back in my teens so I had to have this Free Skate stamp set and dies bundle!


I used Seaside Spray, Basic Black and Whisper White cardstock and, with some masking with torn Post-It notes and trees from the new Snow Front stamp set, I created a frozen lake to skate on! Ink colours used were Pretty Peacock and Seaside Spray with a touch of Pool Party. The blades were die cut from Silver Foil Sheets.


I added some Shimmery Crystal Effects to the lake to make it more "icy". I die cut the sentiment (stamped in Pretty Peacock ink) using the Stitched Nested Labels dies and added some Seaside Spray 1/4" Metallic Ribbon and a Pretty Peacock Rhinestone from the Noble Peacock Rhinestones.

Most Wonderful Time


This card is made with the Most Wonderful Time Product Medley, a gorgeous set of coordinating products in the Holiday Catalogue!

All I had to add was some Real Red, Old Olive & Whisper White cardstock and some Gold Foil Sheets. I also used the Subtle and Hammered Metal 3D Embossing Folders, and the Stitched Shapes and Layering Circles dies. Everything else was in the kit!


It may be hard to see here but I finished off the tree with some Wink of Stella to add a final touch of glitter!
