Christmas Card Challenge # 38 - Anything Goes.

Welcome to our Christmas Card Challenge!

 

We have Anything Goes this week!

 

 

I again opted for some tags:

 

I found these glittery pink tags and these sledge die cuts in my stash and decided to use them together.

I punched some presents and added them on top of the sledge.

Pink, gold, glitter and... presents! Perfect for Christmas!

Christmas Card Challenge #37 - Color.

Time for our monthly Color Challenge here at Christmas Card Challenges!

 

 

This week I decided to make a big tag:

 

The image was an old Pink Petticoat one which I printed on cardstock and colored with Copics.

 

I then chose a striped metallic paper from First Edition and mounted everything on a silver tag from my stash.

How cute is this little cat with its stocking!?

CraftyHazelnut's Christmas Challenge Extra for August - Mid-Month Inspiration.

Here I am again with a new Christmas card for this mid-month post for CraftyHazelnut's Christmas Challenge Extra for August:

 

 

I chose these super sweet kids (AKV Christmas - Peeking from Bugaboo Stamps) and I colored them with Copic markers.

My original idea was to cut them in a circle and make a card and I actually cut the circle and was ready to make the card.

While looking for a suitable card base, I found this house-shaped card from a magazine and I thought it was perfect for these kids!

Thus, I printed a new image and colored it.

The patterned paper was the one I had chosen for the previous card: I still had a scrap which was perfect to trim and use as the roof.

I LOVE it!!!

Christmas Card Challenge # 36 - Angels.

Welcome to a new Christmas Card Challenge!

 

We have a very sweet theme for you this week, angels!

 

 

This is my card:

 

I chose Little Angel Stamp from 2 Cute Ink, I colored him with Copics and positioned it on a journaling card from Lawn Fawn.

The background papers and the star borders are from a magazine.

Isn't he sweet?

My Daughter's Cute Little Fox.

As I mentioned last week in this post, my daughter and I worked with the same Gerda Steiner Designs digi stamp and that's what she made:

 

 

She colored this Cute Fox with my Copics and made a tag, cutting it with my die cutting machine.

She then printed her sentiment and made this super cute tag!

I love it so much that I asked her to let me have it so I could hang it on the wall around Halloween!

 

Of course, she's thrilled to enter Gerda Steiner Designs August Challenge!

 

Do you like it?

 



Christmas Card Challenge # 35 - Snowflakes.

Welcome back to our Christmas Card Challenges!

 

After the short break, we are ready to go back to our weekly schedule and get ready for Christmas!

 

We have a photo for you this week:

 

 

Snowflakes!

 

This is my card:

 

I enjoyed myself with a stamping only card, no coloring!

I chose a light blue ink and some snowflake stamps and started stamping on a small white card. Then, I added a few rhinestones and, of course, a tiny heart.

Very relaxing!

 

Can't wait to see your snowflakes!

 



A Cute Little Fox!

A rainy day here in my town, a perfect weather to talk about fall!

 

I have a cute little fox card to show you today:

 

 

It's Cute Fox and I received it from Gerda Steiner Designs as I took part in her July Challenge.

 

I opted for a fall theme and chose a background paper from ModaScrap. I colored the fox with my Copics and added a few pearls in the corners.

The banner is from Paper Smooches while sentiments and leaves are from TSG stamps (oh! how I miss them!).

I wanted a simple card with the little fox as the focus and I like how it has turned out!

CraftyHazelnut's Christmas Challenge Extra for August.

My two monthly posts for CraftyHazelnut's Christmas Challenge Extra always find me unprepared: August already? Summer is really flying...

 

We've been blessed with a very hot and sunny summer so far and Christmas seems still so far away...

 

Today, I have a new card to show you:

 

 

I chose AKV - Snowman Sled 2 from our sponsor Bugaboo Stamps.

I distressed the background with blue ink and added some embossed paper.

The snowman is colored with Copics.

 

I love the happiness of this little guy playing in the snow!
