Kissing Santa

Here is the card without the tag.

I created this card with tag for this weeks Holly Jolly Christmas challenges.  The theme this week is Santa Claus and I chose to use this digital imaged called Kissing Santa from Limited Runs for my card. I thought the image was so cute. 

I used a selection of Christmas pattern  papers from my stash for the card and cut some of the papers with a selection of dies. It was a good way of using up some of my scraps.   The sentiment, Kissing Santa was from my stash of rubber stamp and is by A Muse ArtStamps. 

Thank you for stopping by and have a very creative week.  

Pin Up Girls

It is time for another great challenge at Incy Wincy Challenges. the theme  of this week's challenge is "pin Up girls".  I used a sassy image from Karleigh Sue Digi'd called naughty or nice. 

I added my image to sa fancy die cut and coloured her with Copic markers and a  glitter pen.   The sentiment was created on my computer.   To complete my card I  added a ribbon and a metal heart.  Thank you for stopping by and have a creative week. 

Gentle Whispher

One of my fun Rubber Stamp groups I belong to is the Rubber Inkers and I have made this card for their "newest purchase"  card swap.  I made this card with my newest rubber stamp, gentle whisper by Penny Black.   I love their slapstick/cling stamps.  I have fell in love with watercolour crayons all over again. 

I coloured my stamp with Neocolor 2 crayons by Caran d'Ache and stamped it on watercolour paper.  I also  some black ink on parts of the stamp and over stamped the flower. I doodled the edges and added a Happy Birthday die by Tim Holtz. 

Thank you for stopping by and have a creative day.

Clear It Out Challenge at Come and Get It

It is a "clear it out" challenge  (use an item from your stash) at Come and Get It this week.  I have two cards to bring to you from our sponsors this week. 

The first card I used an image from QKR Stampede, one of our sponsors this week. The image is called Kickin' It, I think it is such a cute image. 

I coloured the image with Copic markers then made the rest of the card out of papers and findings from my stash. The textured kraft paper is from my friends trash, a piece of paper her glass had been wrapped in. The sentiment was created on my computer and I thought it went great with the image.  

My second card is by our other great sponsor Sentimental Susan and the image I used is called Beach Day. 

 I coloured my image with my Copic markers, gelli pen and Panpastels.  The paper used for the card was from my stash along with the rubber stamped sentiment by A Art Musestamps  and Stampin Up Punch. 

Thank you for stopping by and I hope you will join us this week at  Come and Get It Challenges. Thank you for stopping by. 

Pirates and Princesses Challenge

We have a fabulous new sponsor at Incy Wincy Designs this week, Fabrika Fantasy. The theme of the challenge is Pirates and Princesses.  I used one of Fabrika's great images called Pirate Parrot 3  for this project. 

I coloured this image with Copic Markers and then framed the image with a life preserver  digital image from  Scrapbookgraphics  and added some die cuts from Joy Craft's dies called Seashore along with a sentiment that I created on my computer. It was a very fun card to make.

Ribbon and Bow Challenge at Holly Jolly

It is a Ribbon and Bow challenge this week at Holly Jolly Christmas Challenge and I decided to make a gift card holder for this challenge. I used a digital stamp called Open Present from Eureka Stamps for my project. 

.

Here is the inside of my gift holder. 

I used the Top Note Bigz Die by Stampin Up to make the gift card holder and then added it to a card front using several different coordinating papers. The image was coloured with Copic Markers and a glitter pen, ribbon and button were added to complete the project.
