Tis The Season

Well, here it is my last Christmas card of 2013.  I am finally caught up in posting all my last minute Christmas cards.  For this one I used this adorable image from Pachela Studios at Cuddly Buddly.  This image is called We Wish You A Merry Christmas.  I colored the image using Spectrum Noir pens.  I started with a light blue card base.  I added a piece of red dot patterned paper that I backed in white card stock. I backed the image and the sentiment in light blue card stock and then again in white.  I added crystal stickles to the snow on the ground of the image. I also added 3 snowflakes below the image and 1 to the upper corner of the image. I added a baby blue rhinestone to the center of each snowflake.

Joy This Christmas

Here is one more Christmas card using CC Designs Heidi With Ornament rubber stamp. I colored the image using Spectrum Noir pens.  To create this card I started with a lily pond green card base.  I added a piece of plaid purple patterned paper backed in white card stock.  I embossed a smaller piece of white card stock using a Cuttlebug dot embossing folder.  I backed the image in lily pond green card stock and added it to the top. Then I backed the sentiment that I typed on the computer in lily pond green card stock and added it to the bottom.  In between I added a sage green ribbon and bow.  I added crystal stickles to the pixies wings.

Snowy Hugs Tilda

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

I know I'm a few days late on that.  Over the past couple of weeks we have had several snow/ice storms. Due to those storms we have been dealing with power outages and internet issues.  We had yet another one last night and they are calling for another on Thursday!!! I'm definitely ready for summer!! 

I have a few cards that I recently made but haven't had a chance to post yet.  Here is the first one that I created using Magnolia's Snowy Hugs Tilda stamp.  This is one of my most favorite Magnolia Stamps. I colored this adorable image using Spectrum Noir pens.  I added glitter to the base of the snowman and the top of his broom and white flocking to both hats.
