Mustaches

I am so in LOVE! A|S has this fabulous set of mustache stamps called Foiled Again!. There are so many fun things that you can do with this set. Here is one I did with a Christmas aspect. I also used That's the Ticket which has a matching die set to make perfect little tickets.


 This card started in a complete different direction because I had a bit of creative blindness to start. After reworking it, changing everything and starting over I came up with this.


All products used are A|S unless stated

Recipe:

Paper: Kraft (5.5"x4.75'), Vintage Cherry (5.25"x4.5"), Wasabi (3"x4.75"), Sugar (
Ink: Slate (mustache), Cherry (greeting)
Embellishments: Onyx Baker's Twine, Cranberry button, Sugar Flocking, Brass eyelets, That's the Ticket die set
Cuttlebug Swiss dots embossing folder 

I cut all my paper, cut the tickets with the die set, debossed the Wasabi paper, stamped my image on the Sugar CS, fussy cut the mustache and then ran it through my X-Box Xyron adhesive box on both sides, added the flocking after adhering it to the patterned side of the ticket, stamped my greeting on the back Sugar side of the Vintage Cherry ticket, added my eyelets, tied a piece of twine to each ticket, put my twine through twice on the button, added Zots adhesive to the back of button and Voila!

Hope you enjoy!

Welcome to the A Muse Studio consultants monthly blog hop. If you are participating in the blog hop, you should have come from Chelsea Comer www.inkystamps.blogspot.comblog and if not, then you should start from the beginning with Samantha's blog until you come to my blog.

I am so excited to be participating in my first official blog hop with some of the other A Muse Studio consultants. This months challenge was to make a card for Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa or another winter holiday. I was thrilled when I realized one of my very first "stabs" using all my new consultant kit was a Christmas card I made.
