Love at Christmas

Love at Christmas - Sorry to be late in writing this post. I always schedule my post with my photos, then come back and write the post usually before it goes live, but I have fallen behind. My daughter has been moving into her new home and I am exhausted from that process. 

You would not believe how bad my legs hurt. My job was packing up the kitchen and the back of my upper legs is reeling from the constant motion of squatting down to put things in the boxes.

Back to my card, this card is my DT card for Creative Card Crew. Our challenge for this fortnight is Christmas. 

We are sponsored by Whiff of Joy and they let us play with some of their adorable images. I colored Henry and his pal with Copics. I inked the edges with Tumbled Glass distress ink. I won a snowflake stamp and stamped it around the edge, then added fine glitter to the fur on Henry's hat and the stamped snowflakes.

The snowflake is a SP die with a gemstone in the centers. The sentiment is SU; as is the corresponding punch.

My designer papers are BoBunny's Powder Mountain.

Treasure This Moment

Treasure This Moment - Wow! How quick a fortnight goes! It has already been 2 weeks since our last challenge at Creative Card Crew. This fortnights challenge is Shabby Chic or Vintage. I was not the only one to choose to color this little fellow in Sepia tones. Please check out what the other team members did.

My designer paper is Kaiser Craft, Art of Life.

We  have 2 sponsors for this challenge. They are the Scrapping Center and Whiff of Joy. 

My image is Whiff of Joys, Reporter Henry. I colored him with Copics, cut it with a SB die and inked with distress inks. I believe I used Gathered Twigs, but it could have been Vintage Photo.

I used my Bow Easy to tie the bow and then used a stick pin from one of the stickpin swaps that I did.

Sentiment is a punch out from the paper pad.

Magic

Magic - I have been traveling and got back just in time to finish this card. It is my DT card for Creative Card Crew. Our challenge for this fortnight is animals. 

My DP is Hearts and Clubs,Guy's Life by American Traditions Designs.

My cute little mouse is Whiff of Joys Henry. I think he is adorable and colors up so easy. I colored him with Copics and I kept the lid on my Stickles, they are just to girly for this little fellow.

I did get some bling in with this black, sparkly embossing powder. The stamp and punch is SU. The sentiment is HOT OFF THE PRESS.
