Time to write the next chapter - Another coffee-themed card, but also with NANOWRIMO in mind again this time. I used just the one stamp set from Visible Image this time - all of these and more were in the one set! And I used a lot of coffee!

Still testing out holiday card ideas like this one and I'm thinking about adding it to the shortlist as the dry embossing and stencilling are really quick techniques to do especially if you have a lot of cards to make. whatcha think? #cardmakinghobby #cardsofinstagram #cardmaking #cardmaker #cardmakingideas #cardmakersofinstagram #aecp #Altenew #altenewacademy #altenewllc #altenewlove #greetingcard #greetingcards #handmadecards #mixedmedia #mixedmediacard #mixedmediaartist #papercrafts #papercrafter #papercrafting #floralcard #makingcards #stamping #christmascard #holidaycard #embossing #heatembossing #wowembossingpowder #nuvoglimmerpaste #stencilling

Wow I am all about holiday cards atm! I'm still testing out ideas like this window card I made using this great arch window die from #waffleflowercrafts This card has diecutting, ink blending and heat embossing - it could be too time consuming to make a lot of them or maybe I could get in a groove and crank them out in no time! It's a little big though so I would need to make a smaller version for it to make my shortlist this year, unless I make it my family card #cardmakinghobby #cardsofinstagram #cardmaking #cardmaker #cardmakingideas #cardmakersofinstagram #aecp #Altenew #altenewacademy #altenewllc #altenewlove #greetingcard #greetingcards #handmadecards #mixedmedia #mixedmediacard #mixedmediaartist #papercrafts #papercrafter #papercrafting #makingcards #christmascard #holidaycard #embossing #heatembossing #wowembossingpowder #windowcard #christmastree #inkblending

Have you made all your holiday cards yet? I haven't!!! Too busy with my Halloween 🎃 makes to even think about it lol I've been testing out a few ideas like this big card that I made for a class project and I'm thinking about making smaller versions for my holiday cards to make them cheaper and easier to post. Things I like about it - the colour, the heat embossed stars, the random splatters and gold accents. It's definitely on the shortlist, whatcha think? #cardmakinghobby #cardsofinstagram #cardmaking #cardmaker #cardmakingideas #cardmakersofinstagram #aecp #Altenew #altenewacademy #altenewllc #altenewlove #greetingcard #greetingcards #handmadecards #mixedmedia #mixedmediacard #mixedmediaartist #papercrafts #papercrafter #papercrafting #floralcard #makingcards #stamping #christmascard #holidaycard #embossing #timholtz #heatembossing #wowembossingpowder

Another Halloween-inspired card I just finished tonight! How do you feel about taking photos under artificial lighting? I don't like it at all, but since I needed to finish this tonight and it now gets dark by 5pm!!!!! I had no choice. The photo is OK thanks to manual camera settings and photoshop but I prefer daylight. I also can't fit the whole card in the frame but you can see it in full on my blog. Happy Halloween everyone! 🎃 🎃 🎃 👻 👻 👻 💀 💀 💀 #cardmakers #cardmakinghobby #cardsofinstagram #cardmaking #cardmaker #cardmakingideas #cardmakersofinstagram #makingcards #greetingcard #greetingcards #handmadecards #mixedmedia #mixedmediacard #mixedmediaartist #papercrafts #papercrafter #papercrafting #stamping #handstamping #rubberstamps #rubberstamping #diycards #handmadecards #makingcards #diecutting #embossing #halloween #halloweencard #timholtz #bokeheffect
