MMCC266Santa

Today I am featuring the card I created for the Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge #266 Santa Clause.

For my card I used the Vintage Santa stamp from Stampabilities. The sentiment is a die from Peachy Cheap. To add some color to my stamped image I used Distress Oxide inks on a cotton swab.

The stamped background is En Francais from Stampin' Up!

Crazy 4 Challenges #406
Anything goes!!! So I used some Stampin' Up! products along with a Stampabilities Stamp - Nativity. The combination of Stampin' Up! cs and die from A Night in Bethlehem Bundle makes for a beautiful z fold card.

Since I purchased this Bundle from Stampin' Up! I certainly have enjoyed creating with it.

Happy Birthday Kaley

Recently my cousin, Pat asked me to create a card for her granddaughter Kaley. Pat told me Kaley likes horses and the color green. She also stated that Kaley was turning 17. So, as I pondered what I would create for Kaley's 17th birthday card, the wheels began to turn. I knew I wanted to wow both Pat and Kaley. So I immediately decided to stamp a scene. So I pulled out my mountain scene stamp from Stampscapes and stamped onto glossy cardstock (photo paper) with Memento Black. Then I added some trees from Stampscapes and Stampin' Up! The Mare and colt from Stampabilities was stamped onto a separate piece of glossy cardstock then cut out. Using the Top Note Die from Stampin' Up! I created a window. I colored the images with my Stampin' Up! markers and a dauber. Added highlights with a white gel pen. The dotted Ranger Liquid Pearls to make the flowers. The sentiment is from Stampin' Up! The flowers are Petaloo. The card is interactive in that when you pull and push the side tabs the mare and the colt come together and the mare kisses the colts head.

This card was great fun creating. A labor of love.

Above is my entry for the Challenge at Sunday Stamps #100. I chose purple, pink and orange for my color palette. I am quite pleased. I colored the flower from Chocolate Baroque's Fancy Flowers #UA5SP0422, the Sketched Hummingbird from Stampabilities and the sentiment from Reverse Confetti. The banners are from the Dear lizzy paper stack called Lucky Charm. I added a little shimmer to my hummingbird with Zazzles Blossom and Evergreen.

The sketch for the challenge is below.

Pop on over to Sunday Stamps and try out this sketch challenge.

I sort of DARED myself with this one. I saw something similar on Pinterest. Only the sample was much lighter in color. More of a misty winter day. Mine is more fall like in feel. I used Tsukineko Versafine inks, Post-It notes, and stamps from SU!, Deadbeat Designs, and Stampabilities to create my scene.

Hope you enjoy looking and are inspired to give it a try. If you have any questions feel free to post them in the comments. As I have comment monitoring I can answer quite quickly.
