A little birdie told me...

Christmas is coming! It is hard to believe that it is already September and Christmas will be here before we know it. With the cool and windy weather we had today, I actually had some christmas inspiration and got a few Christmas cards done.I stamped this Sugar Nellie stamp and colored her with Copic markers. I used a new nestabilities label die for the blue matting. This is a square and I wanted to use it for a rectangle shape, so I used it as a mat on the top of my image and then used an emboss strip of paper to cover the bottom. I used the poinsettia folder to emboss the green strip of paper. The red dot flurry paper is from Cloud 9. Then I punched out a Martha Stewart snowflake and used a white glitter dot in the center of the snowflake to add a little glitz. Keep warm!

Saturday Challenges

Here is a card I made to match two card challenges today. I used the sketch from the Sketch Saturday challenge and the blue and brown colors from the Stampin for the Weekend challenge. Iused the Angel Wishes stamp from Sugar Nellie. These are some really cute images. The background paper is from Cosmo Cricket and I used some of our new Chocolate Box paper from Core'dinations. After I cuttlebuged the strips with the new Winter borders, I sanded it showing some of the light blue background through to the front. Then I colored the image with Copics to match the paper and sponged the light blue paper and sentiment tag with Vintage Photo distress ink. I stamped the sentiment from Stamp Shoppe Creations on the tag. I added the glitter flowers from Heidi Grace and centered them with the small snowflake shapeabilities. I love these challenges. They help me to think outside the box.

Vintage Christmas

Here are some new stamps we have just in time for Christmas from Sugar Nellie. I used the Cosmo Cricket christmas journaling cards. There are six different cards per 12 x 12 cardstock. I thought this postcard background worked great with "Santa's letter" stamp from Sugar Nellie. I colored the image with the more vintage colored Copics to match the paper. I used the "Mistletoe" stamp from Sugar Nellie on the card below: The sentiment on the top of this journaling card was perfect with the Mistletoe, since that is one of our Holiday Traditions. With the scallop top, it makes an easy card to throw together with not much work...yet it looks great. Thanks for looking!
