A Few Cards...

 


CCAYR- Snowman

Inkspirational-  Which Season to Choose: The Winter Season

Simon Says- Christmas 

Mr. Snowman came out to play which I stamped in black and coloured it up with Gamsol pencils. I sponged on some distress inks in blues along the edges and glued itbon a glitter cardstock. I stamped the saying in versamark and used this Embossing powder that remains tacky so I can place the shiny stuff on top and it glues in place. I added the crystals and the snowflakes.


The Flower Challenge- Stencil It

Tic, Tac, Toe- tttc259 I chose Leaf, Frame, Embellishment

Addicted to Stamps- Any Occasion 

I missed the flower challenge, I missed but I am able to include this in the Tic, Tac Toe challenge. I used these pigment colours that are in jars and I applied it with the sponge applicator over top the Stencil that comes in 3 parts. I decided to use tombow markers to define the edges of the flower. I glued it onto the glitter cardstock and framed it with pear Embellishments. 


Christmas Card Throwdown Recycling 

Little Red Wagon-Emboss It.

Last week, this same challenge had Brown for the colour challenge. I took a few scrap pieces I have( ok, I have a ton) and created this card. I had a small piece with snowflakes on it and incorporated it onto the card. I embossed the background with stars and highlighted the stars with a distress chalk ink. I stamped the trees in white and embossed in a white glitter. I put all the pieces together and made this card.

  3. Hi, Birgit!

    Yessum, Christmas-themed commercials have been cropping up on TV over the last few weeks. They remind us there really aren't very many shopping days left until Christmas. Your cheery cards help jump-start our hearts and get us in a festive mood.

    Among my earliest childhood memories is that of my folks playing the 45 rpm record "Frosty the Snowman" released in 1950 by Gene Autry and the Cass County Boys. Therefore, my favorite card in this set is #1. However, I also admire the beautiful color combo used in the flower card and the delicate snowflakes and snow-covered trees of the last card.

    It was a joy to connect with you again this month. Please take good care of yourself, your hubby, Lexi and Harley and I hope to chat with you again around the 23rd of November. Blessings to you and your family, dear friend BB!
