Little Miss Muffet - New Challenge

Good morning!  Happy Thursday!  As always, it's very early Thursday for me, but it's time to share my DT post for the Little Miss Muffet blog.  We have a new challenge starting today and the theme is "Christmas".  If you are like me and still trying to finish your Christmas cards, then this is the challenge for you!

Here is my Christmas creation:

My card base and mats are SU Gumball Green and the bright patterned papers are from the Recollections Bright Christmas 6x6 pad.   I followed the fun sketch from The Corrosive Challenge blog, not realizing it was supposed to be for a design team call.  It's still a great sketch and I was challenged with all the diagonal panels!  Anyway, my cute image is Sonny Honeycloud For You from the Honeycloud Teens line from Pollycraft.  You can find her in the Little Miss Muffet store.  This was one of the new rubber stamps released last week, but I used a digi version for my card.  I printed her on Make it Colour Blending Card and colored her with my Copics.  I added Aqua Stickles to the gift and tag and the tabs on her boots.  The sentiment is from Create With TLC.  It is another from the recent Winter Club.  A few dimensional ornament stickers finished my holiday card.

Here is a close-up of the image:

Serene Christmas

Hi there!  It's me again!  Can you believe it?  I have another post for today!  If you are looking for my Little Miss Muffet DT post, please click here or scroll down one post.  I am really trying to get a few more Christmas cards done.  It's getting down to the wire and I don't know how I'm going to get everything finished!  I don't know why I do this to myself every year - lol!

Here is my latest Christmas creation:

It's very clean and simple, at least for me.  My card base is GKD Heavy Base Weight White. I next added a panel of silver mirror paper.  It so shiny in real life, but very hard to capture in a photo.  I mitered the corners to look like a frame.  The main image is Winter Trees.  You can find this Gingerloft digi image in the Stitchy Bear Digistamp shop.  The frame is Christmas Framed from Create With TLC.  It was part of Paulette's recent Winter Club.  I merged the two images and printed the merged image onto XPress-It Card.  I added light green highlights to the main trees with my Copics, then added tons of Star Dust Stickles to make them sparkle!  I added New Fallen Snow Glitter to the whole ground area. Some shimmery silver cord and three silver gems from my stash finished my card.

I am entering my card in the following challenges:
Tuesday Morning Sketches #175 (sketch)
One Stitch At A Time #142 (anything goes, used a store image)
Forever Friends #50 (fortnightly challenge - glitter and sparkle)
Tuesday Throwdown #126 (white Christmas)
Card Makin' Mamas (silver and/or gold)

Here is TMS-175:

Thanks for dropping by again!  I truly appreciate you visits, especially when I haven't had as much time lately to reciprocate.

Have a great day and hope to see you again soon!

Copic/Promarker Challenge - The Outlawz

Hi again!  Usually I wouldn't have back-to-back posts like this, but since I messed up my earlier post, I'm back right away with my DT card for this week's Copic/Promarker Challenge on The Outlawz site.  The theme this week is "Fall foliage or Halloween colors".  You can create anything you'd like along those lines as long as you have coloring with Copics or any other brand of alcohol marker.

Here is my card:

My card base and mats are SU Basic Black and the patterned papers are from the K & Co. Brenda Walton Halloween 12x12 pad.  I merged two digistamps from Make it Crafty - Eerie Scene and Witchy Wanda.  I printed the merged image on Make it Colour Blending Card and colored with my Copics.  I masked the image and sponged an eerie sky with SU Vintage Violet.  The sentiment is from Create With TLC.  It is part of the Beware Halloween set in Paulette's store here.  A strip of DP punched with my Fiskars Grass Punch finished my card.

Here is a close-up of the image:
