Sparkly cards

Hopefully you had a great holiday. I was very successful with my card efforts this year, managing to send 100 cards to the Caring Hearts Card Drive (for elderly folks in nursing homes) and another 35 cards to sailors on US ships for the holidays. Of course that was in addition to the ones I made for myself. I did not post all of them this year, but here is one which is sparkly and fit nicely into the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge SPARKLE!

I used a bunch of different products for this card including Lawn Fawn's Snowflake die and silver glitter paper around the snowflake cut with a scalloped die. Thanks for checking out my card today.

Happy Holidays

Happy Holidays Blog Land!! It's been ages since I posted any thing on the blog. I'm sure you were just as busy as I was and probably didn't even notice LOL. Here's a card, finally, for the Essentials by Ellens Classroom Pin Sights Challenge. Check out the inspiration to the right. It's screams Christmas! I love poinsettias so I focused on that image and used some water colors to create my focal point on this card. Then a little white on white for the mounting and gold embossing for accent. The outer rectangle is dry embossed with snowflakes (but very hard to see in the photo.) Thanks for stopping by.

Christmas Tags Day 15

Here we are at Day 15 for the 25 Days of Christmas Tags with Tracey McNeely. My inspiration today came from Yainea Nunez. She has two snowmen but  I decided to add different friends for my snowman!

Christmas Tags Day 20

Today's tag is modeled after Tracey McNeely's. She used the beautiful poinsettia from Altenew as the focal point. I am sorry I could not copy and paste it here for you to see. You will find it here: 25 Days of Christmas Tags Day 20 and all of the other tags for this terrific challenge. Here is my tag inspired by Tracey's -

Christmas Tags Day 14

Hi Bloggers and Friends, Tracey McNeely made a tag with Santa as the focal point of course! I looked though my Santa stamps and selected one which I really like for my tag today. It is My Favorite Things. It turned out to be one of my favorite tags this season. I'm entering it in Tracey's challenge for Day 14 on her blog - In My Creative Opinion - 25 Days of Christmas Tags. Check out all the tags from this challenge and you can't help but be inspired!

It's Day 13 at Tracey's 25 Days of Christmas Tags Challenge. I love the tags by Laura Pryor, especially her wreath tag below. She and some other designers from Lil' Inker Designs made some beautiful tags for  Day 13 of Tracey's Challenge. Here's my wreath tag for Day 13 (on the right.)

  

Ho Ho Ho Tag

Lucky me - It's the weekend! I made two tags today for Tracey's 25 Days of Christmas Tags, which can be found on her blog In My Creative Opinion. My second tag today was inspired by Tracey's tag of Santa Claus! I wasn't able to copy and paste Tracey's tag here, but you can see it on her blog for Day 12. She used pretty plaid paper behind a stamped and colored Santa image. Here is my tag, inspired by Tracey's.
