Dashing Through the Snow

 Here are two cards I made with some new products from Studio Light. Snow scenes using stamps and water color highlights. Entering one in Simon Says Stamp Wed Challenge "Cold As Ice."




Aqua Snowflakes!

 A few snowflake cards I made with a small stamp & die set from Altenew, creating my own patterned paper and embellishments to match. Sentiments are from various sets in my stash. This is for Simon Says Stamp Wed Challenge.







Dancing Santa

 A cute Santa card for the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge, "Santa." This Santa appears through a window on the front of the base created with a round-a-bout stamp from Concord & 9th.



Merry Christmas

 Another holiday card which fits the SSS Wednesday Challenge "Cold As Ice."



Season's Greetings

 More holiday cards! This one is for Simon Says Stamp Wed Challenge "Cold As Ice."

Season's Greetings

 One design I really enjoy is creating a background and then making matching die cuts to give my cards dimension. Today's card is a perfect example. This project uses Mistletoe & Holly by Julie Ebersole for Essentials by Ellen (Ellen Hutson.) It's an older set, but one I really like. I added some ribbon from my stash and a embossed sentiment from Lawn Fawn. There's a pic of the inside of the card, too. I am placing this on the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge.

Best Wishes

 If you are watching craft videos, you have seen Gina Krupnik ink blend and then stamp on top. That's exactly what I did on this Best Wishes card. I am entering this in Gina K Design December Monthly Mix Challenge.  The stamp set is Wild Blossoms from Gina K Design.



Ho Ho Ho

Two holiday cards with Gina K Design stamps colored with copic markers. The background music stamp is from my stash and I changed up the sentiments a bit because I like my cards to have some variety. The little elf is probably from SSS. He's so cute! This is for the SSS Wednesday Challenge.



 

Happy Birthday

 One more card for the My Favorite Things challenges this week - Sketch Challenge and Color Challenge. I created this gender neutral Birthday card with Happy Birthday script die in shiny black card on top of a red panel stamped with the red rubber "Happy Birthday" stamp with white pigment ink and added three balloons to match the colors for this challenge, see below. 







Perk Up Soon

Been busy with  lots of Tim Holtz products, so thought I would try some MFT stamps and dies and enter them in MFT Sketch Challenge and Color Challenge. I needed more FEEL BETTER cards, so I created this 4 bar card with "Steeped in Love" and paper from "Party Patterns." Check out the sketch and colors below.

Greetings

 Using the November Cozy Wishes card kit, here's a creation which I was super happy with. I used some dies in my stash from Tim Holtz for the greenery and little houses from Penny Black. Posting this on SSS Wednesday Challenge and their Instagram Dec Challenge. 



Winter Wishes

Holiday card time! Here's one which was inspired by Tiffany Solorio after watching her video. She used an embossing folder and then added ink to the raised areas. I am entering this in the SSS Instagram Challenge and also on the SSS Wednesday Challenge "Winter Wishes." The embossing folder is from SSS and the patterned paper is from Memory Box. Their plaids have gold stripes, which I love!
