Christmas thanks - CCC #5


Happy Sunday to you!  Today is Christmas Card Challenges #5!  My card(s) is a Christmas card while technically not a Christmas card.  Confused? ;)

I've got Christmas thank you cards to show you.  To me, these are as important as actual Christmas cards!


I made quite a few (even more than are pictured)...

 

I cut Kraft with Spellbinders A2 Matting Basics and embossed it with Darice Snowflake.  The strip is from Recollections Cozy Lodge.  The snowflake is Sweet n Sassy Small Snowflakes.  The sentiment is from Raisin Boat Thankful and cut with Sizzix Framelits Banners #2.


Please come over and play along!!  Only 330 days until Christmas!!

Thanks for stopping by and have a blessed day!

In the meadow - TMS #387


Happy Tuesday to you!  It's time for Tuesday Morning Sketches!!  

I've got a winter card today.  This is more wintery than our real winter has been.  I love snow, but we don't have much.  :(  We're getting some snow/sleet/freezing rain today.  Kind of yucky, but here's a couple of cute snowmen to cheer you (and me) up!! 


They are cute, but this guy below should make you laugh... we always build a snowman with our first snow which came near the end of October this year.  We got very little!!  Look at this pathetic little guy!  Haha!


Enough whining... back to my card.   My DP is Recollections Cozy Lodge.  My image is From the Heart Stamps "In the Meadow Snowmen."  It was printed on Kraft and colored with Spectrum Noir Markers and a white Galaxy Marker.  All my panels were cut out with Spellbinders A2 Matting Basics.  


Here's our sketch for the week.  This is Melissa's favorite from last year...

  

Tuesday Morning Sketches is the sponsor this week again, so play along for a great stamp set!!


Challenges...
The Cutie Pie Challenge #107 - winter warmers (must be cute)  
Addicted-to-stamps #140 - "Baby it's cold outside" 
Di's Digi Challenge - snowy winter

O Holy Night - CCC #3


Happy New Year to you!!  Can you believe it is 2017??!!??  Wow!

There are only 358 days until Christmas and we're already working on cards at Christmas Card Challenges!   :)


For this card, I used a couple of dies... Die-Versions Sweet Petites Nativity Border and Memory Box Stitched Landscapes.  My paper is from my scrap box, including the polka dot vellum that I used for the sky.  The embossed sentiment is from Raisin Boat.  I added a couple of brads (I like the look, but they are really to hold the vellum in place rather than have adhesive showing through.)  And this is pretty flat... after just doing my cards for 2016, I realize I need to be making more mail-friendly cards!! 

Please come and play along with us at Christmas Card Challenges!  This challenge is an (optional) color challenge...


Thanks for stopping by and have a blessed day!!
