winter Is Snow Much Fun blog hop

Hi Everyone
OK so we have a fun blog hop going on over at Mr Cricut Crazy and our theme is "winter Wonderland" and since I need a few more cards for Christmas I added a Christmas sentiment, but there are plenty of other ways to use the Christmas, Christmas stamp set which is why we are doing this theme! You should really start at Tanner's (Mr Cricut Crazy's Blog HERE) and work you way throught the hop but if you already started there and you came from Carolannes blog (Logans crafty momma) Then you are on the right track! Tanner will be giving away Friends, Friends stamp set as blog candy:-)

I have used a soft Pencil digital image I had bought a few years ago, and as Elizabeth doesn't do digitals anymore, she does have her images in rubber form:-) HERE
Here is a close up and sorry for it being a bit dingy, I added glitter to the snow, stickles to the tree, and some fake snow for their hats:-) the rest is colored in Copic Markers
Here is the card, I added a simply snowflake border punch and matted everything to,
Now you should be on to Sherri's blog which is squeaky scrapper

Supplies used were:
Sentiment: Mr Cricut Crazy: Christmas, Christmas
Image Digi: an older digi image from soft pencil designs, which now make Rubber stamps instead of the digis HERE

Reds for Rememberance

Happy Thursday Everyone.
I know Im late with this post:-( I have been nuts the past few days trying to find my husbands social security card which I never found but it knocked me behind in the search!
This weeks challenge over at Cute Card Thursday is Reds for remembrance! I remember when I was a little girl and would go to town with my dad around May is when I think the veterans would be on the corner with the paper poppy's and a little poem, and look for a few dollars for donations for the vets, my dad being in WW2 always gave a donation and hung the poppy under the rear view mirror, It brought back lots of memories of dad and so I decided to use an angel and add some of my own paper poppy's
This weeks sponsor is Simon Says Stamp and the prize this week is a $20.00 voucher towards product in their store:-)
I only have one picture to show you this time as I have no clue what the deal is with my camera or it might just be me after the past few days but my close up shot was blurry and I just didn't have time to set up and retake the picture:-(

This card is also going towards my extra card for the month for Color Me creative copic classroom, It is colored with copic markers and it will be nice for the people that play that challenge to see the coloring. Suzanne is on the road this fall and go here to check out where, and all the details,
I used this cutie from All That Scraps called Emma from the sugarplums line
Other challenges i am adding this to:
Just Inspirational challenges: Remembrance day theme
Supplies used:
Copic markers: R39,37,35, E00, 01, 11, Y11, E47,44,43,42, spica pen in gold and red for accents
Design paper: Stampin up glitter paper from last year, and the striped from this years paper pack, and a piece of suede red paper

Sundays With Crissy : Untraditional Christmas colors

Welcome to
A new challenge at Sundays with Crissy, where the challenge for the month of November is:
Make a card using non- traditional colors,
which means no reds and greens, which I sort of pulled off, with My "My Minds Eye" papers and I think Making memories, but the lighting was not my friend and trying to tweak it did not help so my photos look washed out but if I brightened it to the way the card should be then it looks like I used red cardstock which I didn't use, It is actually a Flamingo pink:-)
The winner will get 5 digi images of Crissy's using random org. Please go over to sarahs post to find the rest of the details and there you will find the blue linky box to add your creation to:-)
I used Crissys new digital image called "sharing the Warmth
These two cuties are bundled up in this big scarf!
Supplies used:
Copic Markers:
sentiment: Mr Cricut Crazy : Christmas Christmas
DP:MME and Making memories
Punch: Stampin up circle and scalloped circle punch cut in half
snowflake and bells: Local craft store

The lace is from ebay, and green velvet ribbon was in my ribbon pile:-) I added a few wild orchid crafts rose buds and a daisy flower that may be a Prima but I was given a bunch from a friend (Thank you Janene) and I'm not sure which company
