Peachy Keen Merry Christmas Snow Friend

Hi Everyone! I made this cute little snowfriend with the new Cricut Snowfriends cart. If you like snowmen you will love this cart. The Peachy Keen challenge here is to use any Peachy Keen face stamp. I used one of the winter faces available here for this one. I see that Peachy Keen is having a great sale through the weekend so you may want to check that out, too. Since I cut this little guy so big I had to put him on 6x6 card and there still wasn't much room for anything else. I added a red checked wagon (the checks don't really show up in the pic) cut from Paper Doll Dress Up and filled it with snowballs hand cut from glitter paper. The flocked paper is from last year's Making Memories stack I think. The snowflake is cut with a Cuttlebug die. The snow is embossed with the Divine Swirls folder and both are stickled with Crystal Stickles. The sentiment is printed from my Polkadoodles CD available here. The challenge over at 2 Red Bananas is to make a Christmas/Winter card. Their DT made some great cards and there is a precious image for the winner. Thank you for visiting here. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Spots and Stripes Papertake Weekly Challenge

Happy Rainy Tuesday! The challenge this week at Papertake Weekly is called Spots and Stripes. I just got this little penguin digi image from Pink Cat Studio here and thought he'd be perfect for this. I used my Prisma pencils and OMS to color him, added some Glossy Accents to his candy cane, and put liquid applique on the fur. The paper is from last year's Martha Stewart Christmas paper. The sentiment is computer generated. I've finished two Christmas cards now!

Cute Card Thursday and Just Magnolia Challenges

I didn't realize that I hadn't posted anything at all last week. Anyway, I have now made my first Christmas card for this year. Over at Cute Card Thursday the challenge is to make a candy/sweet themed card. I got this 60's Tilda stamp from 7 Kids College Fund a while back and thought she'd be perfect for it. I colored her with Copics and added pink stickles to her lollipop, rain dot hearts, and pink pearls on the snowflakes. I used the sketch from the Just Magnolia Challenge. I liked this Christmas paper from Hobby Lobby with the pastel colors. The pink is Bazzill Dotted Swiss which I love. I sprayed the whole thing with Shimmerz Spritz "Baby's Breath" so it has a nice shimmer, but it doesn't show in the picture. I am pretty happy with this one. Check out both of these challenges. The DT teams have some beautiful things posted and

Santa Card for Copic Color Challenge

Well, it's a cool and rainy day in the South so I have spent the day card-making. Yay! The Copic Color Challenge this week is use Copic Markers G02, Bg05, and R27 or the closest color you have to those. This week I had all three of the colors ! I've been waiting a while to color this Santa stamp from Whippersnappers and I thought those colors would look great on him. I tried my new Polar White Flower Soft on the snowy parts and was a little disappointed with my effort. After it dries I'll go back and fill in the bald spots. Anyway, I loved the colors with this stamp.

Thanks for looking!
