Christmas card challenge week 25

Good Morning!!!
Another great sketch for this weeks challenge!!
You can go here to play along.
I love sketch challenges...it makes it a lot easier for me
to get a card done and you can use the same sketch
for a scrapbook layou too!!!

Here is my card for this weeks challenge..
I love this image from CTMH I colored her with
my copics and use my spellbinders to cut out
the circle and scalloped circle.  Of course paper
is from my paper scrap bin.

I am running out of Christmas paper...I can't seem to
find any I like :( any suggestions?

Have a fantastic day!!

Christmas card challenge week 24

Welcome to my blog...
It's time for another Christmas card challenge
you can go here to play along.

This weeks challenge is Use a very old Stamp.

For this challenge I used the very first stamp that
got me started on my card making!!
I used this stamp for the very first set of Christmas
cards I ever handmade!!
I have tried to get rid of it (as I don't/haven't used it)
I just can't seem to part with it!!
Stamp is from Stampin Up.
The paper is scraps from an old paper stack
from Michaels buttons are CTMH.
Have a great Sunday!!

Christmas card challenge week 22

Happy Sunday!!
Hope you all are having a great weekend...
I have so many projects I am working on...
But, for now this weeks Christmas card challenge is...
Punches! you can go here to play along.

This is my card for this weeks challenge.
I used my ek punch on the green piece of card stock to make
it look like a piece of notepaper ripped from a binder.

The image is a digi and the paper is from a paper stack from
Michaels (used pieces of scraps).

I am hoping I can be crafty all day today...I am trying to
get my layouts all done for my upcoming trip to Puerto Rico done
before I even go so when I come home I can print
my pictures and be done! So far I have 6 two page layouts done.
I will share as soon.
I will also be working on my week in the life...

Have a great Sunday!
