Holiday Spirit

Hi everyone!

Can you believe it is already December? 

I have a holiday card to share with you today that I created using a fun little stamp from 

Gerda Steiner Designs.

How cute is this little kitty?

I stamped the kitty from the Furry & Bright stamp set using some Black Memento ink twice, once onto a piece of white Hammermill cardstock and again onto a piece of plaid patterned paper. I colored the image that was stamped onto the white cardstock using my Copic markers and then fussy cut the plaid box out and glued it on top of my colored image. I added my sentiment & used a stitched die to cut out my image. I wrapped some red crochet thread around the top & tied a little bow with some small bells in the center before adhering my piece onto some gold glitter cardstock. I covered the front of my white A2 cardbase with some more of the plaid patterned paper, added my image panel and my card was done! Simple card but I really wanted the focus to stay on that fun little kitty! There have been moments so far this holiday season where I can relate to this little cat haha! How about you??

Spread Christmas Cheer

Hi everyone!!

Today starts a new challenge over at the Di's Digi Designs Challenge Blog! Yay!

You don't need to use a Di's Digi image or even a digital stamp to enter the challenge though, as long as you follow the theme. You can find more about the rules and requirements on the challenge blog.

The challenge that started today is....

Christmas with NO red or green!

Here is a look at the project that I created:

I created my card by creating an A2 card base from some white cardstock and adhering a scallop rectangle that I cut using some snowflake patterned paper on top. I die cut the frame that fits into the scallop rectangle three times and glued them on top of each other to give a little dimension and some sturdiness. I printed the Carol Singing Trio* onto a piece of white Hammermill paper and colored it with my Copic markers. I trimmed it down and added it behind my frame, along with the sentiment, before adding it inside my scallop rectangle. I added some snowflakes along with some white Nuvo drops to complete my card. 

I couldn't get a very good picture of it, but I decided to add some white flocking powder to the pom pom and fur trim on the little girl's outfit. 

When I first read this theme, I thought it was going to be super hard but once I saw this adorable image from Di's Digital Images, all the pieces just kinda fell in place. I love it when that happens lol!

--Skin: E50, E51, E21, R00, R20--

Season's Greetings

Hi everyone!

Today I'm sharing a super cute holiday themed card that I made using an image from 

Pink Gem Designs.

How sweet is that little snowman? 

I picked out some older patterned papers from a Pink Paislee 6x6 paper pad and layered them onto a white A2 cardbase. I did wrap a bit of ribbon around separating the two patterned papers before adhering it to my base. I die cut a small scallop rectangle from some white cardstock along with a couple of stitched snowy hills and stamped my greeting along the bottom of one of the hills. I printed out the Snowman with Robins onto some white Hammermill cardstock and used my Scan N Cut to cut it out. Once it was cut out, I colored in the image with my Copic markers and added it to the front of my card, tucking the bottom of the snowman behind the bottom hill just a bit. I completed my card with some white Nuvo drops, some snowflake sequins and a big bow. I adore how this turned out!!

Copic Colors used:

--Snowman: BG000, YR18, R000, R00, E27, E23--

Let It Snow Gift Bag

Hi everyone and happy happy Saturday!!

Today starts a new challenge over at the Di's Digi Designs Challenge Blog! Yay!

You don't need to use a Di's Digi image or even a digital stamp to enter the challenge though, as long as you follow the theme. You can find more about the rules and requirements on the challenge blog.

The challenge that started today is....

Fancy Folds OR Anything But A Card.

Here is a look at the project that I created:

I love to have little treats/gifts on hand during the holiday season so this challenge was the perfect time to get one done. One less thing to do during the hectic time next month right? 

This was so super simple to make. I started by using a gable box die and cutting out my box from some light blue cardstock. Next, I printed out that adorable image, Snowman and Robin, onto a piece of white Hammermill cardstock and colored it with my Copic markers. I decided to print the image once again onto a piece of patterned paper so that I could paper piece his little hat band and his scarf. After I had it colored, I used a stitched die to cut it out and popped it up with some foam tape onto a piece of white glitter cardstock.  I adhered it to the front of my box and added a few snowflake sequins along with some white Nuvo drops. I stamped my sentiment and added it to a bow that I created to hold the box shut to complete the look of my box.

Inside I placed some white paper shred along with 4 pieces of yummy chocolate.

A gift card can easily fit in there with the candy as well.

Copic Colors Used:

--Snowman/Hat: BG000, RV00, C2, C4, C6, E23, E25, E27, YR14, YR18, YG03, YG05--

Hi everyone!

I hope you are having a fabulous day so far!

Today I am stopping by to share a card that I made using a adorable stamp from

 Gerda Steiner Designs.

I adore this little mouse in the Balancing Mouse stamp set and couldn't wait to create a Christmas card using the set!

Here is a look at the card that I created:

I created an A2 cardbase and layered some fun & bright patterned papers from Doodlebug Designs on top. I masked off the largest ornament and stamped it a few times onto a piece of white cardstock so that I could create a row of ornaments. I stamped my little mouse on top of one of the ornaments and then colored in my images with Copic markers. I decided to add some of the smaller ornaments in the stamp set as well. I stamped a few onto some scrap cardstock, colored them & then fussy cut them out. I placed them in front of the larger ornaments before trimming down my image panel. I die cut a red scalloped rectangle and adhered my image to the center. I added some red and white crochet thread to my card before popping up my image with some foam tape. I die cut the "JOY" from red glitter cardstock and added that as well as some red enamel dots to finish off my card. So super cute!!

Copic Colors Used:

--Mouse: E40, E41, E42, E43, E44, R20, R00--

--Hat: R24, R27, R29, R39, C00, C0--
