Featured Stamper Challenge#98




Today's Featured Stamper on Splitcoast is Paula (paulatracy)!! OMG, what a fabulous gallery...Paula is an amazing artist!! Her coloring is sooo awesome!! I chose to case her Christmas Lantern card. I kept the same layout and Christmas theme but changed the stamp, papers, colors, and added piercing rather than sewing.

The Christmas Stained Glass Cardinal image from Rubberstamp Ave. was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black onto vanilla cs and colored with copics. Crystal Effects was used over the bird image and then dusted with Dazzling Diamonds. The background was sponged with Soft Sky. Pearl colored Liquid Pearls was added to the snow and covered with Dazzling Diamonds, piercing was done on the Basic Grey Figgy Pudding paper and pearls and ribbon finish it off.







The close up shows the stained glass effect with the Crystal Effects. The image was matted on Real Red cardstock

Now, would you like to see what I did yesterday??? My wonderful Grandbabies, Cody and Mackenzie (the blondes) and their friend, Brandy, came over to make Christmas cookies. We had such fun and the kids did a great job!!! Cody did get carried away just a little with the flour but what the heck....now it really seems like Christmas!!










It took a little practice with the rolling pins but it didn't take long to get the hang of it.














How fun!!! There is nothing better than happy, smiling children!!

















Yikes!! We had to take Cody's shirt off and go outside to shake it out!! Good thing the temp was in the 70's!!




Thanks for visiting and I hope you have a wonderful Sunday!!!
