Christmas In Pink

Well I'm Back! I went to Europe and I was ill and my computer went on the fritz and tonight is halloween! Here are my five for the Christmas October theme. I have to say that I hope pink is ending soon:) I can't seem to get too Chritsmassy with pink so I tried my best. The first one actually is like a dusty rose but it came out brownish in the pic. Have a great Halloween!

Pink, Yellow, Orange and Lime Green, Oh My

Well another month over and here are my cards. I have been quite lax with doing my cards. I have been busy painting our new lattice work that Michael made. The colours are wild but I like it. The coulrs for the lattice are deep purple, Burnt orange and periwinkle! I will use these colours along with a buttery yellow for the front -outside of my home. Needless to say this takes time. I also have been sick for over 2 weeks with a nasty ears, nose and throat infection but i think I am getting better. OK so that is why I have not been on lately...oh and yesterday we adopted a dog from Louisiana! It would have been put down otherwise and he is so cute and he was abused but he gets along with my Katie and the 3 cats...now on to training. The poor guy too, in 2 weeks we leave for Europe, but my ex's niece Tammy will take him. She is wonderful and works for the humane society so she knows howe to treat him. OK on with the cards! This was a tough one for me because I do not normally associate these colours with Christmas but I guess that is why it is a challenge! I embossed and cut out(angels) and coloured in and used stickles and the sticky ornaments that already have glitter on them-I love them but of course it is glittery. Anyway I hope everyone had a great August!

Snowflakes with snowman

This was a simple one but it looks good if I do say so myself. The snowman in blue ink and the snowflakes in white glitter embossing powder. Well I got this done under the wire!

Tranquility

I used the cuttlebug on the blue paper and I stamped the tree in red glitter and the words in blue. I love those words

Snowy Snowmen

I like this card probably due to the glitter. I used white glitter on the top and bottom and then I stamped the snowmen and the trees.

Penguins, Mits and more

Well I received my winnings from Christmas All Year Round and I decided right away to use one of the papers I received. I stamped the image of the penguin and the Merry Christmas stamp in red glitter. I also tried desperately to make some bow...as you can see i am not an expert at that. Why can't one buy them ready made:)

Deer in Blue and Red

Well This is a more mannish card with a hint homage to the american holiday. I stamped this image in dark blue ink and used red and dark blue background and finished it off with some glitter stickers
