Winter Wonderland

Time for another challenge at Incy Wincy designs this week.  the theme of the challenge is Winter Wonderland.  I chose to use a image from our sponsor this week Stitchy Bear called Flat tire.  
I thought the design was a wonderful winter scene that fit our theme this week.

I coloured the image with Copics and then covered the scene with small clear micro bead with a little glitter added.  I loved how it sparkled. The sentiment is by Just-Rite stamps.  Thank you for stopping by and have a very creative day.

Gold and White for Christmas


The digital image is from Sticky Bear Digital Stamps one of the sponsors at this week's Holly Jolly Christmas Challenges.  The theme of the challenge is to create a card using only the colours of white and a colour of your choice. The name of the image that I used for the card is Christmas Sled. 

I used Spellbinders Nestabilities Label 8 to cut out my layers of while and gold.  I also used a snowflake embossing fold by Darcie on one of my white layers. I cut the Christmas sentiment out of gold and white cards stock and then layered the tow sentiments together.  The sled was coloured with Copic colours Y21, Y23, Y26, and Y28.  A gold and white bow was added to complete the card. 

I hope you'll join us for this fun challenge. Pop over to the Holly Jolly blog to see the beautiful Christmas card creations of the rest of the Design Team.   Thank you for stopping by and have a creative day.

Tent Card - Back to School


Tonight’s card was made for an upcoming technique swap. The technique chosen was the tent card using the tutorial from Splitcoaststampers’ web site.

http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/resources/tutorials/tentcard/

To create with card I used a digi stamp from Stitchy Bear Stamps and a clip art pile of books courtesy of pamsclipart.com. To complete the back to school theme, for the frame of the card I used a set of alphabet stamps from my stash.

Have fun
Be creative
