Merry Monday Christmas #223 - (Dark blue, Light Blue and Pink)


This card for Merry Monday challenge uses stamps from Purple Onion Design. After stamping the image on white card stock I stamped on three pieces of designer paper and then began piecing. The sentiment was stamped and heat embossed. I trimmed this piece and attached to a piece of pink paper and then mounted onto white card stock.

CASology: Week 225 - SOFT


When I saw the cue word of soft I thought of a blanket and then I thought of this adorable stamp. Thanksgiving is just two days away, here in the states, and I have much to do which includes cleaning the craft/guest room. Before I put all my craft supplies away I decided to quickly make this card. I love using kraft paper and heat embossing so this card really is CAS. The bear was colored with pencils and a blender pen. I chose to stamp the sentiment so that the design was square like. This will be a great card for a friend who will be a grandmother in two months.



Supplies:
Stamps: Image no name, sentiment Paper Smooches "Chit Chat"
Ink: Inktense Ink Pencils, VersaMark

Giving Thanks Linky Party at Stamplorations


I am submitting this card to the Giving Thanks Linky Party at Stamplorations. This design and sentiment are from Unity Stamps. I colored the image with Copics and used a tad bit of Wink of Stella.

Happy Thanksgiving to all the girls and friends of Stamplorations

Christmas Critters and SAS4Kids


Today I am submitting this card to Simon Says Wednesday Challenge with the theme of Christmas Critters. Also I am sending it to two sisters, Kaydence and Salem Weaver, at the request of SAS4Kids challenge.

This card began with stamping and die cutting the seal and coloring with Copics. I embossed the Cuttlebug folder and then ran ink over the image. I used a SU! punch to cut the sentiment and it and the image were adhered to the embossed piece with mounting tape.

CASology Week 224: EMBRACE



The theme this week for Casology is embrace. I chose this image from House Mouse
 which I colored with Copics and then fussy cut. A piece of Neenah was masked and then I used Distress ink Salty Ocean. The sentiment from Unity was stamped and then this piece was trimmed and attached to the base card.

CASology: Week 222 - WELCOME


I found this image in my UFO box and decided to finish it and submit it to the current challenge at CASology. The image is from an old SU! stamp wheel which I dismantled and cut to this size. I stamped on Neenah, colored with Copics and added some line work. After trimming this piece I mounted it onto a snipped of SU! Tempting Turquoise cs (one of my favorites). Before attaching the piece to white cs I stamped the sentiment (name unknown). 



Merry Monday #220 - (How Will You Decorate Your Door?)


I am hurrying to enter this card for Merry Monday. The first image I stamped and colored is hiding, so quickly I stamped, embossed, colored with Copics and fussy cut a second stocking as well as some greenery. I embossed the wood grain folder and all pieces were adhered to the white base card.
