There was a bonus day for the 25 days of Christmas tags! Day 26 featured a company who has such cute images – Hello Bluebird!

I was totally inspired by the penguin tag set that Suzy Plantamura made for Day 26!  So stinkin cute!  So with that inspiration, I pulled out the “Little Frosties” set again and this time I made a set of tags.

Aren’t these little guys just so adorable!  Here are the tags one by one

Isn’t that die cut behind them perfect?! It’s the “Confetti Circle” by Simon Says Stamp

I had an absolute blast putting these together!  And there is a quick video glimpse of that happening over on my Instagram!

Thanks for stopping by to see these today!  Hope you have had a wonderful day and have a fabulous week ahead!

My creation today is for 2 challenges –

#1 – The 25 Days of Christmas Tags – Day 21 – I was very inspired by all the snow globe tags for that day!  There were several ladies who did them; Kara Pogreba, Mindy Eggen, Caly, Carol, Tracy McNealy, and Christy Reuling – they were all so adorable!

#2 – The Lawn Fawnatics monthly challenge “Fun with Dies”

And here’s my snow globe tag made using Lawn Fawn stamps and dies!

The set is called “Ready Set Snow” and the coordinating dies make it so easy to put together super cute snow globes!

I made a forest scene with sparkly, snow-covered pines

There is an area on the back to fill in the “To: and From:” for the recipient.  And this tag is ready to be used on a card or attached to a gift!

Thank you so much for stopping by!  Hope your Thanksgiving holiday was wonderful!

I have found a new product love!!  I ordered this stuff out of curiosity and set it aside.  But then I pulled it out to play along with Gina K’s November challenge – which is “Let it Snow”

And I fell in LOVE!!!!!!  Look how pretty these snowflakes turned out using it!

The snowflakes are from the stencil for the mini wreath builder

And that “Merry Christmas” is probably my favorite Merry Christmas sentiment of all time.  That font is perfection!!!

The snowflakes in the background that I did emboss resist with are from the Gina K set called “Fun Year Round”.  Isn’t this stuff so pretty through a stencil?!!!

I did one of my speedy videos with this card so be sure to head to my Instagram to check that out!

Thanks for stopping by!

Have a wonderful day and a very Happy Thanksgiving!

I think we all agree that the cards we have least of in our stashes is masculine cards!  So with the Retro Rubber Challenge this week, I chose the bottom row across

I used the stamp set “Open Sea” by Stampin Up!  It’s at least 6 years old but is still such an awesome stamp set for masculine cards!

I pieced all these images together to create a collage that is perfect for a guy.  The “Happy Birthday” label comes from another old Stampin’ Up! set called “Vintage Labels”.  It’s from Sale-a-bration like 10 years ago!

And that is why I have kept old sets that are favorites!

I’m glad to have another guy card in the stash!  I’ve been running extremely low!

I am so super excited to be a guest designer for the November Club Sursee by Catherine Pooler!

The products are so cute and fun and I was immediately drawn to the “Great Wings” set with these beautiful butterflies!

You can see here that you’ve got the butterfly outline and then the solid stamps to fill them in.  I did a trifold card and stamped the outline on vellum so the pretty detail could be separated from the solid

Isn’t that so pretty?!

 

For my second card with this set, I used the “Just a Dash” coverplate that comes in the Sursee for November.

Doesn’t it make such a cute background?!

The butterfly is embossed on vellum with another layer of vellum underneath that is stamped with the solid image and embossed heavily with several layers of the Flirty Fuscia embossing glitter.  It coordinates so pretty with the ink!

I embossed that cute sentiment as well

And a very simple card with a lot of pop is finished!

I love the products by Catherine Pooler!  And this monthly club just makes them all the more fun.  Be sure to check it out!

Yay for Friday!  Have a wonderful weekend!  I’ll have another post up on Monday with another look at November’s Club Sursee products.  There’s another super fun set to showcase!

I was inspired by 2 challenges for today’s card

#1 – Try Stampin on Tuesday‘s sketch gave me the idea for the layout – where I switched that middle piece up to make it a circle

#2 – The Double Trouble Challenge blog had a really fun set of challenges up!  This is where I got my idea to go super sparkly.  The theme is “Bring on the Glitz” and that is exactly what I did!  They are also pairing up with Cupcake Inspirations with their “Use a Snowman” challenge

And my card features a very sweet little snowman!

And it is from the same set I used on my last card – “Little Frosties” by Hello Bluebird.  I’m still not ready to put that set away yet! 🙂  I am absolutely in love with it!

I got glitzy by using the Ranger “Snowflake Tinsel” embossing powder, glitter paper for the flagged piece, glittery dots around the snowman, and sparkly embellishments to top it off.

If you’d like to see this card come together and get a better look at the sparkle, don’t forget to visit my Instagram page for the recent post of it!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Hugs 🙂

I took some more time to get some coloring!

I have thinking, nonstop, of all the things I could do with this adorable Hello Bluebird “Frosty Littles” set!

Today’s card is a pretty simple card.  No sentiment is on it, but instead, speaks the message of love with those adorable little snow sweeties exchanging love

I had so fun coloring a bunch of these sweet little snowmen and I have several projects I’m excited to make with them!!

I added dimension with puffy paint on the roof of the little house, stickles on the envelope that the girl is giving her guy, and more stickle dots in the sky

With the square shape and the cute frame (by Mama Elephant) this card has a fun and simple look that is ready to go make someone happy 🙂

Thanks for stopping!

First I want to thank Retro Rubber Challenge Blog for picking my Mermaid card, last week, as one of their top picks!

And now I’m excited to share my first card for the Daily Marker coloring challenge!  It goes all month and I’m going to stretch myself to participate more than I ever have because I love coloring more than I ever have!

This cute little image that I colored is from the Lawn Fawn set “Village Shops”

It’s going to be a fun one to put a gift card inside for a special birthday!

The next image I have set out to color is quite a big bigger and more intricate!  So it may not be the next card I share, but I’m looking forward to when it’s finished 🙂

Have a happy Tuesday!

I made a card using two different challenges today.  Time Out Challenge #147

 

And one of my very favorite challenges – Retro Rubber Challenge!  #122 is a sketch that I used for inspiration

I used this adorable Mermaid Kisses stamp set by Reverse Confetti for a dreamy loving friendship card (To go along with the Time Out theme)

And I took the Retro Rubber sketch challenge, flipped it to a horizontal card and used an oval instead of circle for that center piece

This sweet mermaid set is a few years old, but I love it and love that I could pull it out for this fun card!

Thanks so much for stopping by to see it!

Today’s card uses Sketch #408 over at Freshly Made Sketches

I used 3 colors that I’ve never thought of using together as a Stamp Nation weekend color challenge.  Now I love the combo!

It came together quickly for a bright and cheery card!

Be sure to check out the speed-through video of it coming together over on my Instagram!

Have a wonderful weekend!
