Green Christmas with Funky Fossil Designs,

  Hi Everyone,

I am back with my weekly Christmas card. I am playing along with 52CCT - the theme is use a stencil. I combined with with Just Add Ink, which has a beautiful mood board for our inspiration - see below.
I started with a light green card base and used the stencil Festive Words to add more interest to my background. I die cut two of the Tree Silhouette tree dies with white and green card stock and glued them together with a bit of off-set, to mimic some snow. Stamped the deer form the set Winter Wonderland (sadly no longer in the store). I trimmed the side and added a strip of paper (Neutrals paper pad). I also added a brad and some thread.

I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting.

Such a wonderful way of using your stencil to make a Christmas card. Also love how you made snow for your trees - I will have to remember this trick. Thanks for joining us over at 52CCT. Hope to see your creations again soon.

Addicted to Stamps and More #134 and Spotlight Sneak Peek

Hi Everyone, Its challenge time at  ATSM ! For the next two week its going to be CAS - just my thing! And hopefully yours, too! I made a birthday card, because for some reason I always need more and never seem to have enough.... I was inspired by this weeks Make it Monday , where the talented  Ashley Newell  shows us a video about  stamps and doodling. Since I  mainly own die cuts from Papertrey and not so many stamps that would fit this theme I made my own out of fun foam, using my latest Papertrey dies (just got the order a few days ago) and cut those in fun foam - it works so well - voila - you have our own stamps, spending only a fraction of the money! I doodled around the stamps as you can see. Gives you kind of a cool effect....a little more tremor and one would think I drank too much ;) Added tiny enamel dots - do you know about this month House of Cards challenge - its enamel dots - thought I'll let you know..... Our wonderful spons...

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it. And here is a close -up: Challenges: Dynamic Duos CAS Colours and Sketches Addicted to Stamps and More Amusing Challenges Materials: Papertrey Background Basics: Super Stripes, Memory Box Chloe Stem die. --X-- Card for Maddy: You may know already about  Maddy ,  who  was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and went through chemotherapy treatment followed by a stem cell transplant from her (then) fiftee...
