Guest Designing with the Outlawz Color Challenge

Hello Friends and Happy Tuesday!  I've been invited to guest design with the Outlawz for their Color Challenge.  This challenge runs 2 weeks and the theme includes the colors Blue, White and Green along with something that begins with the letter "S"


For my project, I created a Christmas Card using the required colors and included a stamped snowflake for the "S" requirement.


Using the Gina K. Designs Sparkle and Shine Stamp Set, I stamped and heat embossed the Snowflake and sentiment.  I created a striped background using Green Glitter card scraps and adhering to a card panel with liquid adhesive.  


I backed the focal image with a snippet of Blue Glitter card and popped up with craft foam before adhering to the card front.  For a bit of interest, I round 2 corners of the focal and mat.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope to see you on the Outlawz Color Challenge.  Until next time, Happy Crafting!

Bugaboo's Holiday Chaos Day #4 - Bingo

Hello!  I hope you're having a Terrific Tuesday!  Today the Holiday Chaos continues at Bugaboo's Catch the Bug Challenge Blog with a game of  B-I-N-G-O.  In addition to that, it's New Release day and there is a Pop Up Freebie available to all until 7 pm EST.

For my design team project, I colored up the Little Penguin Decorate Tree digital image and have a Bingo with Designer Paper, Bugaboo Image and Die Cuts.

This image makes me smile, I love Penguins anytime of the year but at Christmas, they are especially cute!  My designer papers are from the Echo Park "My Favorite Christmas" 6x6 paper pad, the snowflake die cuts were made using dies from Gina K. Designs and the sentiment is from a stamp set that came along with a UK Papercrafting Magazine I purchased at Barnes and Noble. For a final touch to my scene, I added Crystal and Gold Stickles for added Bling.  

Please stop by the Bugaboo Challenge Blog and join in the fun.  Lot's of prizes up for grabs and lot's of inspiration from the Team!

Until next time, Happy Crafting!

Bugaboo's Holiday Chaos Day #2 - Sketch Challenge

Hello and Happy Sunday!  Today is Day #2 of the Holiday Chaos celebration at Catch the Bug; Bugaboo Stamps Challenge Blog.  This week we are celebrating with daily themes and prizes with Grand Prizes awarded at the conclusion.  Today's theme is a Sketch Challenge and for my project, I'm using the Christmas Doodles image.


I stayed true to the sketch with the exception of moving the sentiment up higher on the card.  The papers are from a Martha Stewart 12x12 paper pad I bought on After Christmas Clearance a few years ago.  The silver snowflake buttons and poinsettia embellishment are items in my stash purchased at After Christmas Clearance sales.  The digital images were colored with Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers.

We hope you'll visit the Catch the Bug Challenge Blog today for more inspiration and hopefully enter your project in the challenge.  Until Next time, Happy Crafting!

Vintage Vibe Christmas Tags

 Hello All and Happy Wednesday!  Today I'm sharing tags that have a Vintage vibe to me (not intended as I have a hard time doing Shabby and Vintage any justice).   These were created using a Stitched Tag Die and Snowflake Dies from Gina K. Designs.  The papers are from a digital paper pack I purchased on Creative Fabrica and layered on a tag base of white card for sturdiness; and to add the "To" and "From" stamp.


Each snowflake was cut from Glitter paper, I hand dyed white ribbon using Distress Inks, the sentiments are from Cardz TV stamp sets and cut with circle and scalloped oval dies.  The finishing touch was to add coordinating gems to the middle of the snowflakes.  

The countdown to Christmas continues and so does my tag making :)   Until next time, Happy Crafting!

Rustic Noel

 Hello and Happy Sunday!  It's a rainy Sunday here in Central Florida, so what better day to craft and work on Holiday Cards and Tags.  Today's make and share features a Snowflake from Gina K. Designs, Rustic Designer papers and heat embossing.


This card measures 5.5" square, I stamped and using fine detail gold powder from Ranger, heat embossed a Snowflake from the Gina K. Designs Sparkle and Shine Stamp Set.  The sentiment is from the same set, which I stamped in Gina K's Red Velvet ink.  The papers are from The Paper Studio "Rustic Noel" 6x6 paper pad.  For finishing touches, I added Nuvo Crystal drops in Copper and Gold ribbon.

Have a wonderful day and until next time, Happy Crafting!
