Hope and Prayers

Hope and prayers - At this time of year, I often think about the Hope that the birth of the Savior means to all of mankind. For me the promise feels me with hope and joy; but for many this time of year makes many going through pains of this life sad and depressed. It is hard to see joy in the world when you are in acute pain. For these people, they need more encouragement more now than at any other time of year. My Aunt who lost her husband last year, told me how she cried all day on Christmas last year, as she missed having my dear Uncle at her side. So this card is for all those people feeling pain and sorrow.

The image is Angel of Hope by Michelle Perkett. Michelle's images are so beautiful and can just touch your heart. The DP is Rustic by DCWV. The sentiment reads. Give your trouble to God. He will be up all night anyway. The ribbon accents and the flowers are Jolee stickers.

Woofie's Christmas

Woofie's Christmas - This cheerful fellow is Michelle Perkett's Woofie under the tree. Doesn't he look like he is ready for some Christmas magic?

Woofie and the tree are colored with Copic's and I used my new Spica pens to get the sparkly color on the gifts. DP is My Mind's Eye Christmas pad. I love the colors in it. It also has some glitter on the paper. The border punch is EK success Fleur. Ribbon was from Michael's. The glittery brads are recollections. I distressed the image with Tim Holtz distress ink "Peeled Paint." Peeled Paint is the color that I use most. I like the olivey tones in it.

Out On The Town

Out on the Town - Grumpy Gretchen by Digi's With Attitude! has stepped out on the town with her poodle! I would like to look like that when I walk a dog!

I colored Gretchen with Copic's. The sentiment is from a rub-on pack by Joanne's Essentials. I doodled around the edges with a black Sakura pen. The DP I picked up at Hobby Lobby and the ribbon was a scrap that I bummed from a friend. Thank you LuCindy!

The gemstones were hand placed. The challenge at Digi's With Attitude! is pink, black and silver, a nice change from all the Christmas. Not that I don't love all the Christmas, because I do, it is just nice to work with a different theme/colors for a change.

Joy

Joy -This image is called "Eris in Christmas Lights" by Sew Many Cards.

Eris was so fun to color. I love his big old ears. i colored him with Copics

His star was colored with Copics and Spica pens. I put some stickles on his lights and I used diamond glaze to make his eyes shiny.

The DP, sentiment, and flowers were from a kit by Making Memories called Fa La La.

The challenge this week at Sew many Challenges is Red and Green. You don't have to use a Sew many Cards image, but we love it when you do. There is a FREEBIE on Fridays. Today's (November 26th) is Bear with Sled. He is adorable and would look awesome in red and green.

Christmas Treasure

Christmas Treasure - The challenge this week at Creative Cards Crew is Treat bags or boxes. The sponser this week is Simon Says Stamps. They carry a wide range of crafting products to include Magnialia stamps, MS punches and Nesties. I used one each on this treat bag.



I whipped up this "Treasure" Bag for my grandson and 3 other little boys, who sometimes attend crops with my friends and I.

This is Magnolia's Pirate Edwin. I know how much little boys love pirates. Edwin was colored with Copics and I sat him on a candy cane that I cut with my Cricut. Christmas Cheer cartridge. The shiney little spray, I picked up at the dollar tree for 25 cents. Good deal, uh.

The sentiment is computer genarated. I filled it with candy canes and chocolate bars.

Singing In The Snow

Singing in the Snow - This cheery family is part of Michelle Perkett's new Snow Family series. The do some really fun things. You can check them out here.

I colored them with Copic's and used some of my new Spica pens to bling it up. I went over the "family" with a glitter marker. I used my snow writer to get the dimensional snow.

I used a CB folder and some snowflake eyelets. I used a piece of ribbon with a snowman charm. I also used some pearl sprays from the wedding aisle. Yes, I love to shop the wedding aisle for flowers and pearls.

The challenge at Michelle Perkett's Studio is "Happy Holidays" She even has a freebie that you can use for it on her groups. Go join them and snag your Freebie.
