Goodwill to Men

Hello! Sorry my post is going up late this morning, went to bed with a headache and woke up thinking, "Oh shoot!" 
It's time for another Christmas Card Challenge! This week our optional challenge is Red, White, and Brown.


I really love this color combo and how my card turned out. I colored Tilda with my copics. The paper pack is Echo Park: Very Merry Christmas. The sentiment is from AmyR stamps. It's hard to tell in the picture, but I used a MFT border die on the bottom of the red panel. Some CTMH ribbon and pearls finish it off.


I hope you have a great Sunday and have a chance to play along this week! Thanks for looking!

My Friend

Hello! I'm back with another card for Christmas Card Challenges! This week our challenge is a sketch, check it out on the challenge blog. I love sketches, they are a great starting place!


My card uses a cute image from Stamp Fairy, colored with my copics. The sentiment is from Gina K designs. I used last year's Christmas card kit from TE for the patterned paper, sorry I don't know what collection it's from. The flower die is from MFT. I left this one as a winter card, I'll be able to turn it into a Christmas, birthday, or thank you card.


Thanks for looking and enjoy your week ahead!

Angel Valentine

Hello! I had some time to stamp today and thought I'd stop in and share quick. 


I originally sat down to make a baby card for a friend, but decided after I put the papers together that it looked more like a Valentine's day card, so I changed images and made a card for my mom to give a friend. The angel is from The Cottage Stamper. I colored her with my copics. The papers are Crate Paper- Paper Heart from a past KI kit. A dear friend from work made me the beautiful crochet heart. I used Deconstructed Sketch #85 for the layout. I used a MFT border die in place of the scallops in the sketch and added little bling to it.


Thanks for looking! Hopefully I'll be inspired for a baby card tomorrow, lol!

Grandma's Tilda

Hello again, I hope your week has had a good start! I started the Kosama exercise class last night, and oh my, I can already tell it's going to be a very painful day! And to think I have to do it all over again tonight... the next 4 weeks need to be done fast!

Anyways, on to happier notes... it's time for another ABC Challenge. Today's challenge is F for your Favorite Tilda. It's no secret many of us DT girls love our Tilda's! Ink yours up and play along with us.


I used the sweet Traveling Tilda to make a card for my mom to give my grandma. She received very good news at a doctor's appointment yesterday and we're all very excited. I colored Tilda with copics and used Simple Stories Fabulous papers along with some gems and ribbon from a past KI kit. A CTMH swirl and Prima flowers finish it off. 


Thanks for looking, check out the rest of the DT creations at the challenge blog and grab your Tilda's to play along!

I'm also playing along with Magnolia-licious' Anything goes challenge.

Silhouette Wisemen

Hello again and happy Sunday! I'm back with another Christmas Card Challenge. This week our challenge is to use silhouettes (remember, the challenges are optional, details on the challenge blog!)


I tried to keep my card pretty simple and quick, no coloring. The wise men are from Taylored Expressions. There is a silhouette of the nativity in the set also, maybe I'll use those 2 stamps for a few cards to "mini-mass" produce. You can't tell in the picture, but I used 2 different blue inks on the image. The paper is Aspen from CTMH. The sentiment is from the TE set also. I thought the crown border die from MFT would be perfect for the kings. As usual, some misc ribbon and a button finish it off.

Thanks for looking, I hope you have a chance to join us!
