Love to Create 3D Holiday Gift Challenge

Hello, Happy  Monday!!  

Today I am sharing my cards for this week's  new challenge over on my challenge blog

Love to Create Challenges

Our theme for this week's challenge is 

Share a 3D Holiday gift 

We have two fabulous sponsors this week QKR Stampede  and StampArt by Kathryne 

 Both sponsors are offering fabulous prize to our winners!

I selected an adorable  image from StampArt by Kathryne 

 Frosty Friends 

I found this fabulous and easy tutorial on Graphic 45 blog on how to make this little gift bag

2 pieces of card stock and a 1 1/2 inch from a third sheet and easy peasy ....

In my shopping for new ornamemts for our fresh real tree this year of course you know I had to check out the crafty aisle and found a collection package of Bo Bunny Weekend Market reduced down to a ridiculous price so in the cart it went and some of the beautiful papers were perfect for my project.

Here's a view of  Frosty Friends, I added some Snow -tex on Frosty's nose and his friends hat.

Using dies and a punch I created my flowers and added SU jewel brads to the center

Blue Frost Stickles around the edge of  base label (cut from paper collection). Punched out some snowflakes and added gems to the center.

 For the handle I cut out a tag from the paper collection then printed a sentiment onto scrap paper from the collection - Both sentiments are from Create with TLC.

Hope I have inspired you!
We would love to have you come join us at Love to Create Challenge, for a chance to win some  fabulous prizes from our wonderful sponsors.

Whimsy Stamps Party Time Challenge

Hello  friends,

Our Whimsy Stamps monthly challenge for November is here and this month our theme is 

"Party Time"

Oh it time to get this party started and I have the perfect little 
guy to help us do that!!

This sweet thing is "Penguin Light Me Up" created by Crissy's Digi's. This card

was made for my 9 yr old soon to be 10 birthday in January. He {hearts} penguins 

and always loves when I have penguin images laying around that he can color.

He is colored up using Copic, with some Stickles Rock Candy and Star Dust added to the light bulbs. My sentiment is by Raindrop Echo Retro Bottle Cap Sentiments stamped in SU Red ink and then cut using the Whimsy Stamps Bottle Cap Die .

I did use some pretty Christmas paper by Echo Park This & That, pairing with green polka dot paper by Paper Studio. Pearls using Viva Decor Red Pearl Pen 

Remember, you don't have to use a Whimsy image on your creation to play along with us!

So come on over and join us!

We have some awesome Prizes this month

Love to Create 3 of my Favorite Embellishments

Hello, Happy  Monday!!  

Today I am sharing my cards for this week's  new challenge over on my challenge blog

Love to Create Challenges

Our theme for this week's challenge is 

3 of Your Favorite Embellishments

We have two fabulous sponsors this week Inky Impressions and Wings and Willows  .

 Both sponsors are offering fabulous prize to our winners!

I selected an image from Wings and Willows this week !!

Owl Tree 

A CAS card this week, as it has been a not so good week here in this house, fighting a stomach virus, 2 too many doctor appointments and then over time at work.

I used Gimp photoing software to change the color of the image from black to blue

to give my hint of color. Found scrap paper from my scrap basket to create my card and used a SU Best Wishes stamp for my sentiment.

My 3 favorite embellishments pearls, button and twine!!

Hope I have inspired you!
