It is all about the Snow!!!

 Hello Crafty Friends!!!

I am popping in today with a couple of cards that I created for some challenges. Though the holidays are over, the cards I created are Christmas cards. I didn't have enough to send out to everyone so I am starting earlier this year!!

I am entering this into this weeks Freshly Made Sketches #718, the Jingle Belles Challenge-to use wrapping paper on a card-the plaid paper is Christmas wrapping paper, and CAS on Friday #325.

I used the Snuggle Snowman that I received from Simon Says Stamp. I die cut the hat out of cardstock and wrapping paper. 

The embossing folder is Snowflake Visions. I am not sure who makes it as I forgot to put the company on the front!! The sentiment is from Concord & 9th.

The snowflakes are die cuts from my stash. 

The second card I created using sketch #655 from the Paper Craft Crew.

Once again I used the Simon Says Stamp! Snuggle Snowman as the showcase for my card. 

The pink paper is from PaperTrey Ink that I die cut with a Waffle Flower Additional Pierced Layer Die. 

 The green paper is from an old Doodlebug Design paper pad and the sentiment is from the Simon Says Stamp and CZ Design Holiday Typewriter stamp/die set. 

I LOVE how these came out. It was fun to pair old and new supplies. I am really trying to not buy this year but I am already having a hard time because some of the new releases are amazing.

That is all from me today. I thank you for taking the time to stop by. Have a FABULOUS day!!

A Few Challenges

Hey Peeps!!!

Just popping in with some cards I created for some challenges. I have been busy using paper, stamps, dies and stencils that I have had in my stash for a long time. 

For my first card, I used this weeks sketch from Freshly Made Sketches for TWO Christmas cards. 

The first one I created used the sketch as it was. I used some papers from an old paper pad and a snowman from Mama Elephants Little Agenda Snowmen.

The die cut sentiment is from My Favorite Things. The stamped sentiment is from Hello Bluebird. 

The stencils I used is from Echo Park.

My second card was inspired by the same sketch but I moved the white tag down more to the bottom.

The gnome is from Mama Elephant, the speech bubble from Hello Bluebird, and the die cut "merry" is from Sunny Studios.

The snowflakes are from a bunch of snowflake dies that I have die cut in large amounts. 

My next card I used the sketch from TGIF Challenges. I used sketch #481 as my inspiration.

The elf is from My Favorite Things and the sentiment and snowflake element are from 49 and Market.

The pattern paper is one from my stash. Below is the sketch I used for my card.

My last card I created using a sketch from Try Stampin On Tuesday. However, I was too late to enter. I am also entering it into the Jingle Bells Challenge-Embossing Challenge.

I used a combination of products on this card. A My Favorite Things sentiment and bear, a Hello Bluebird Tree, and a bunch of snowflakes from different companies.

The embossing folder is from Honey Bee Stamps-one of my favorite in my stash.

This was so fun to make. That is all from me today. I hope you all have a great day!!
