My PInk Stamper Challenge

The "back" opened card

Wow have you seen that Robyn from http://www.mypinkstamper.com/ is hosting a Christmas/Winter theme challenge in celebration of her new DVD. I bought one of her DVD's at CHA this past July and it is GREAT. I even took her cricut class she was hosting. That was great, too. She has a new DVD called Cricut Layouts through the year.
I was needing to make some cards for the holidays as a special little gift my duaghter/ and mom did together. So what better then making a card for the challenge.

This card was an inspiration from Momo from http://www.madebymomo.com/. She had a great Ustream several months back showing several different cards. I wanted to make one but never thought about it. I did the Joy fold card. Her instructions were spot on.



I used on this card SEI paper lines:
Winter Song:
Frost (the blue background)
My Wooly Scarf is the blue/red/silver/ beige stripe. This paper is double sides, the inside are these cute little branches.


Kris Kringle:
Peppermint swirl

The cute little Gingerbread boy/girl and sentiment is from Peachy Keen Stamps
They are stampped on craft card stock, the white is my gel pen, and the buttons/bow is my Copic marker. The girls all have a little rhinestone for the bow.

The ribbon is from my stash (I bought from a scrapbook store going out of business for just penny's for a whole roll).

I hope you and yours have a very Merry Christmas and Happy New year.
Enjoy and Happy Scrappin'

Christmas Card/tag with matching envelope

Yes its that time of week. Another wonderful SEI challenge with Gaby. I just love her SEI challenges. They are so cool. Gaby and Abby's projects are just as cute as can be. Don't believe me? Go see for yourself. Gaby's blog is http://www.gabycreates.com/ and Abby's blog is http://www.scrapbookaholicbyabby.com/. The treat/bag box is just as cute as can be. She used the SEI Paper line Kris Kringle. Isn't that paper just as cute as can be? I love love all SEI paper, but I must say my favorite Christmas SEI paper has to be Christmas Mint (shhhh don't tell anyone but its also on Sale at Shopsei.com). I think it's time to stock up.

So for this weeks challenge she asked to make something Christmas. I love to make Christmas cards and and gift tags for the presents. I thought this would be GREAT. I made this cute little Santa tag and made a pocket card to put him in. I also just stamped on the back of him To:/From: using my stamps from Pink by Design Christmas Stamps. I was "testing" out my stamp so I also made a cute little plain envelope.

Isn't he just as cute as can be?

I used:
SEI Christmas Mint line: The red back ground is Cinnamint (It's textured and two tone).
SEI Christmas Mint line: Raspberry Truffle (mmm so yummy).
SEI Christmas Mint Green Ribbon
For "Santa" it is made by "Another Stamp Company"

He is all glittered out with Xmas Red, Cotton Candy, and Star Dust Stickles
I had some "Fun Fluff" so his beard and trim is fluffy.
The border punch is from Martha Stewart Cafts - Poinsettia (got at Michael's for 12.99).
Well Happy Scrappin'

Throwback Thursday - Christmas

Ok so I found time this week to do Emma's Throwback Thursday which the theme was Christmas. Go visit her at http://www.creativetimeforme.com/. We were suppose to use the cartridge Celebrations, but I don't have that cartridge, yet. I used Winter Frolic for my Christmas card.

I can't believe we just finished Halloween, and already needing to think about the Holidays and getting cards made. I hope to make a few of these cards. They were quick, and cute.

I used SEI paper line Christmas Mint *** This has to be my all time FAVORITE paper line***
With in the line there is Winter Mint (the Green) my favorite. Its soft green and then green stripes.
I also used Cnnamint (the red/pink)
And Mocamint (the beauitful brown)
The Happy Holidays sentament was also SEI
I just love this paper line and Glitzmatz is so super cute, too.
I used Winter Frolic for the cartridge, my Gypsy and Expression.
The cute little gingerbread girl stamp is from Peachy Keen Stamps (isn't it just a cute stamp).
I used my white gel pen
Copic pink/reds for the colors on the gingerbread girl.
