Silent Night

 Hello! I'm back with another Christmas Card Challenge card. This week's challenge is Anything Goes.

 

 

For my card I used my ultimate favorite Handmade Holiday paper pack from Simple Stories. The cute image is from CC Designs, colored with Copics, and the sentiment is from AmyR Stamps. The sketch is Sketch Saturday #278.

Filled With Love

 Hello! I'm back today to share a card I made for my sister's bridal shower coming up!

 

 

I used Mojo Monday #312 for the layout, the paper pack is MME: Miss Caroline Dolled Up. I colored the cutie from Tiddly Inks with copics. The sentiment is Taylored Expressions and I finished it off with some Verve seam binding and a CTMH button. I added my Spica glitter pens to her, although it doesn't show well. I'm not sure why the card looks so pink in the picture, sorry about that...

 



 

Thanks for looking!

Merry Christmas

 I'm back with another card for Christmas Card Challenges! This week we have a great sketch to play along with.

 

 

For my card I used EP: Very Merry Christmas and a cute snowman from CTMH. I colored him with prismacolor pencils and added a bunch of stickles. The sentiment is from Verve.

 



 

Thanks for looking! Be sure to check out the sketch and the other DT creations here.

Peace & Joy

 Hello! I'm back with another card for both Christmas Card Challenges: Music and ABC Challenges: Very Cute. I thought these were great challenges to combine again, especially since ABC Challenges is being sponsored by Stamp and Create, who is having a Christmas sale here!

 

 

I used this cute Tilda who's playing music... perfect right!! The sketch is Mojo Monday #310. I used some papers and ric rac ribbon from CTMH, the flower and pearl are from Wild Orchid Crafts. I added some clear Spica glitter pen to her wings and some gold to the violin, although I couldn't get the pics to capture it.

 



 

Thanks for looking, I hope you have a chance to play along. Don't forget to check out the challenge sites to see the rest of the teams' creations!

The Real Christmas Feeling

Hello! I'm back today with another card for Christmas Card Challenges. This week we want to see snowmen!

 

 

I love how this card turned out! I used some Simple Stories paper. The sentiment is an ancient mounted stamp, don't even know what company! The adorable snowmen are from CTMH. I inked up only a part of a border stamp for the 4 of them.

 

Thanks for looking! I hope you have a chance to play along!



Do Not Give Up

Hello! I know that I've mentioned this before, but work has been an absolute mess this summer. I've been burned out for quite awhile now and it really started to get the best of me. I found I was getting short tempered with my family, co-workers, and patients and I was so tired of feeling so angry and exhausted all the time. I absolutely love my Verve stamp collection and a couple of Sundays ago I just sat in my craft room and made a card with a favorite scripture to sit on my desk. I did it again last Sunday and decided to try my best to make it a weekly occasion, because I do notice a calming effect from the little reminders from the verses. I'm calling it my card of the week and I'm having fun sharing them with my co-workers.

This is the one I made for this past week and it has been a reminder that even though it may not seem as if anyone is noticing, when I give my best to my patients I have a greater chance of being the nurse who made a difference.

 

 

I used Mojo Monday #309 for the layout, I seriously had so much fun with it and love how the card turned out! The paper is MME: Life of the Party.

 



 

Thanks for looking and for putting up with my venting! I hope to have more to share, and hopefully it won't take me all week to have a chance to post them, lol!

Tilda's Joy

 Hello! I have a card to share for both ABC Challenges: U for Unlimited (anything goes) and Christmas Card Challenges: Something new! Pretty easy to combine those two... hint, hint... :)

 

 

My card uses a new-to-me paper pack from Echo Park: Winter Wishes. This was also my first time using this super pretty Tilda stamp, although I'll admit I've had her for awhile now... The sentiment is from Verve and the sketch is Deconstructed Sketch #116.

 



 

Thanks for looking, I hope you have a chance to play along with one or both of these great challenges!
