Believe! --Merry Monday #273

January 21, 2018

I am so excited to join the Merry Monday Challenge.  I had a little extra time this week with the snow in Atlanta and when I saw Marcia's color combination, I had to play along!  Red and Turquoise are my favorite colors!

I dug through my Christmas stamps and found an old   favorite by Tim Holtz.  I love this Santa because he is so retro!  He makes me smile.  A red card base and some turquoise patterns is all I needed to pull this together.  The banner is cut with a Reverse Confetti Tall Tag dies and the Believe is from Papertrey Inks.  A big red button, white twine and Wink of Stella completed my card.  

Thanks for stopping by my blog today!  

Have a great week!

HUGS!

Happy Holidays--Merry Monday #177 and Your Next Stamp #25

October 30, 2015

I am so excited to share my card with you today.  I had so much fun making it.  I am entering the Merry Monday Christmas Challenge and the Your Next Stamp sketch challenge.  

Retro Christmas lights and glitter are two of my favorite things for the holidays. I received the stamp set Oh Deer--Your Next Stamp and the Light Up The Holidays --Your Next Stamp and couldn't wait to use them.  

My base card is Very Vanilla.  All three patterned papers are from a paper pack that I found in my stash. (Santa & Friends-The Paper Studio 6 X 6 pack)  I stamped the lights and deer on Neenah Solar White paper and colored them with a variety of Copic Markers.  I used the matching dies to cut them out.  I also cut a strip of Silver Glimmer paper using the lights die and cut the tops out to make the shiny parts on all the bulbs.  

Stampin' Dimensionals were added behind the deer and lights to make them pop.  I added Glossy Accents to the hearts and nose on the reindeer. Wink of Stella was added to the deer and the lights for added sparkle.  

I am so happy you stopped by my blog today.  If you have time, please leave a comment.  I do love to hear from you!

I hope you have a wonderful Halloween weekend!

HUGS!
