SLEIGH BELLS RING

Hi everyone! I'm here today sharing a fun slimline Christmas card. I had to much fun creating this card. I don't usually use multiple stamp sets on my cards but I think after this card I'm going to start! I love how it all came together!

I recently purchased a few Christmas sets from Pinkfresh Studio and Catherine Pooler Designs and these set's work great together!

I created the sky using stormy sky and blueprint sketch and blended them together to give it a look as if it's snowing.

For the snow I used the stitched slimline snowdrift dies from MFT. I used all three dies to create the rolling hills for the trees. 

I stamped all my images and colored in those that needed coloring with my Altenew artist markers and got busy creating my scene. 

The cute bear was an add on after I had the card all done lol. He was left over from a card you can see HERE. Once the card was finished it just felt like something needed to be on that end. 

 The last steps were adding in the snowflakes and sequins. I'm the type of stamper who, no matter how hard I plan, always adds things after the card is put together. Like the snowflakes lol. I wasn't going to but once they were on there it was perfect.

FOR YOU BOOKWORM

Hi everyone! Back again with another challenge for

We have two great sponsors for this weeks challenge:

Prize: 2 digi images of winners choice

AND

Prize: 4 digi images of winners choice

Now onto my project. I decided to create a slimline card for the image I used so I could make her a bit bigger than I normally would. I used a really cute image from LeAnn's World 101 called SCHOOL GIRL. 

I wanted to give her the look as if she was in a library so I used a background peek-a-boo stamp image from Hero Arts and using my misti I stamped it on the upper part of my panel and then using some of the smaller images on the lower half and separating them with a strip of blue ribbon.

TRICK OR TREAT SHAKER

 Hi everyone! Welcome back. I have another share for a challenge over at

The challenge: Halloween or cats

For my card I decided on a slimline shaker Halloween card. I've been really enjoying creating this new size card and with the help of some dies you can make them into multiple window shakers. 

I used a fun kit called GOT CANDY? from Close To My Heart. 

The only thing I used that wasn't part of this kit was the dies to create the front shaker panel. 

At first I wanted to stamp images and color them in and then I remembered the kit came with a sticker sheet and these pumpkins fit in great with the background paper I used. 

I took one of the sentiment strips and cut it to create the sentiment so that it would fit. To get the card base attached to the shaker I left the shaker window piece upside down and adhered the card base that way.
