Very Merry Snowmen


Ok, so I love snowmen. It is pretty much the only Christmas stamp set I own. I have another on order, but I ordered it because it has a new snowman in it:) Also, I think you are going to be seeing a lot of Christamas Cards from me. If I do them for the challenges I should have a really great selection of cards to send out. This is my theory, we'll see if that pans out!


This card is for ways to use it challenge, cracked glass. I love this technique, even thought today is the first day I got it to work correctly, yeah. The yummy dp is from Reminisce, Ice Storm White and Blizzard Blue. I am going to pick up some more because I love it! Oh, I also did another tri-fold card from Beate's weekend sketch challenge, I thought this image was perfect for it and they are sooooo easy to do.


Thanks so much for stopping by. My ticker is nearing 800 so 1000 is just around the corner, I think I will have to get some blog candy together. If you have something fun you want to share, please leave a comment and link here and I will take a look.

Note cards

This is a note card set that I sold at a craft fair last weekend. I sold them in a package of six card for $6. I had a set open so you could see what was in them. I sold two sets, but my cost was $5.

Congratulations Chat!! I chose this card from her amazing gallery, which I have been stalking since I started at splitcoast. I stamped the flower in choc chip and embossed in clear ep and colored it with a blender pen and ink pads. The dp is Cosmo Cricket Butterflies.

Very Merry

Good morning! My kids are out of school today for Nevada Day. I got to sleep in for a few minutes, woohoo! I finished this card around midnight last night, but couldn't get a decent pic. So here we are, the image was done using the masking technique. I will share that I started a completely different card and it just wasn't going anywhere, does that ever happen to you? I embossed the main image with copper ep on watercolor pape and colored it with SU markers not quite navy and bashful blue and a tiny bit of orange and bugandy. The sentiment was stamped with not quite navy. I stamped some small bg snowflakes in versamark and embossed with clear ep and rubbed a bit of saffron colored chalk to highlight the (it's hard to see in the pic)


Have a wonderful weekend~ Laura

Thank you friend


Hi! This is for the brand new sketch challenge at SCS for the challenge chasers. I cut the circles in the frame with a Creative Memories circle cutter. The butterfly was embossed with copper ep and then colored with SU markers and blended with an aqua pen. I then embossed with clear ep over that and over the main flower image. So there you go! Thanks for stopping by.


My daughter is in year round school and has the next four weeks off, so I'll either be doing a lot of stamping or no stamping, LOL!

Sweet


Good morning! This card is for the Wednesday sketch challenge at SCS. I have new stamps so I had to use them. I thought this little hedgehog would be perfect. I stamped him in black on watercolor paper and then embossed in clear ep. I cut out the butterfly and added fruit punch stickles. I cut out the slider with a CB and used SU punches for the flowers. The stiches are stamps from CTMH.


Thanks so much for stopping by!
