Cozy Christmas

Hello!  Happy Wednesday!  Can you believe I've got another post already?  That's two so far this week!  I am happy to be finding a little time to finish up card projects on my desk!  Definitely not an easy feat these days!  Anyway, I'm here with a quick post to share another Christmas card I made to add to my stash.  It is for a bunch of challenges that all had a similar theme - snow or snowmen.

Here is my card:

My card base and mats are GKD Red Hot and the patterned papers are from the Recollections Bright Christmas 6x6 pad.  My cute image is Snowman Scene from QKR Stampede.  I won it when they were sponsoring a blog hop I participated in recently.  I printed it on Make it Colour Blending Card and colored it with my Copics.  I added Liquid Pearls to the falling snow, Crystal Snow to the pom pom and brim of his hat, Red and Aqua Stickles to the ornaments on the tree and Gun Metal Stickles to his buttons.  The sentiment is from Bird's Cards. It was a freebie I picked up last year.  I added red gingham ribbon from my stash, some aqua and white fabric trim (Webster's Pages) and a few snowflakes punched from glitter paper to finish my card.

Here is a close-up of the snowman scene:

Elisabeth Bell's World November/December Challenge

Good morning!  Happy Sunday!  Hope you've had a good weekend so far!  It's finally gotten chilly here, but the sun is still shining, so I can't complain.  Before I head out for the day, I am popping by to share my GDT card for the new monthly challenge at Elisabeth Bell's World.  The theme for November/December is "a different folding".  I chose to make a center step card for my different folding project.  It is simple to do but looks very special, at least to me.  And the great thing is it still fits in the standard envelopes I use for my regular square cards.

Here is my card:

My card base and mats are GKD Cranberry Tart and the patterned papers are from the K & Co. Elizabeth Brownd Visions of Christmas 12x12 pad.  The adorable image is Belles 'n Whistles The Christmas Door from Elisabeth Bell.  I stamped it with Memento Tuxedo Black onto Make it Colour Blending Card and colored with my Copics.  I added lots of Stickles to the ornaments on the tree and wreath, the poinsettia and her little petticoat.  Over the glitter on the ornaments, I added Glossy Accents to give them even more dimension.  I went over a few of the other details with Spica pens for a subtle shimmer.  The sentiment is from Create With TLC.  It was part of Paulette's recent, and I must say fantastic, Winter Club.  Several adhesive pearls and a large silk bow finished my card.

Here is a close-up of the image:

Haunting

Hi there!  Happy Wednesday!  We're halfway to the weekend - how good is that?  This week is just as crazy as last so far, but I did manage to put together a card for a few challenges.  It is absolutely my last Halloween card for this year!  It is for Kenny K. Krafty Krew #116 (frightful) and Sketch N Stash #99 (sketch).

Here is the sketch:

Here is my card:

My card base and mats are Papertrey True Black and the patterned papers are from last year's stash (K & Co. Kelly Panacci Halloween).  The fun Halloween image is Trixxie Treat from Kenny K.  I printed her on Make it Colour Blending Card and colored her with my Copics.  I added Stickles to her hat ornaments, ribbon tie, garter and the candy in the pumpkin.  The sentiment is from Create With TLC.  It is from the Beware Halloween set which you can find in Paulette's store here.  A couple of glittery spider web corners, also from last year's stash, and a few 3D glitter dots from this year finished my card.

Here is a close-up of Trixxie:

OK, on to my card.  This one was so fun to create!

My card base and mats are SU Pumpkin Pie and the patterned papers are from last year's K & Co. Kelly Panacci Halloween Collection.  I merged two adorable images from the new release: Agent Cupcake at Halloween and Lil Spook.  I printed the merged image on Make it Colour Blending Card and colored it with my Copics. I added a bunch of Stickles (Crystal, Purple, Lime Green and Orange) to make them sparkle a little.  The cute sentiment is from Create With TLC.  It is part of the Beware Halloween set in Paulette's store here.  Some wide satin ribbon, a few gems and a glittery spider web corner finished off my card.

Here is a close-up of the image:
