Okay I have another LOTV card to share with you. I am telling you I just love these stamps.
I had fun throwing this card together.

I also used puffy paint again to create some snow. I love Memory Box dies but wish I had more. I really need to start asking for crafty Christmas stuff. 

This was such a great snowflake card although I wish I would have built it up a little more. Looking at it now it needs more snow!

You can find this card for sale at my Etsy Store.

I had so much fun coloring this image. I used copics and had to search for a goof blue combo because I misplaced my color cheat sheet.

Kenny K - Mistletoe  and used Bo Bunny - Powder Mountain Papers. I embellished with some silver ribbon, mini pom pom trim, and some snowflake stickers. I also used my stickles to add a little bling.

You can find this card for sale at my Etsy Store.

Hope you get a chance to play with us this fun challenge.

Guest Designer Contest

Good Morning everyone. I am here today to share a card I made for a chance at a guest spot at

My Favorite Things

Now I know a lot of you out there are so familiar with them. I love their stamps and dies. They also have cardstock with coordinating embellishments (buttons, felt, ink, and ribbon)

So for my card I used the clear stamp a la mode Miss You a Latte. 

For the base of my card I used some Sweet Tooth cardstock. I colored the image with copics to match some My Mind's Eye papers I had(check out what MFT has for paper). I then inked all the edges with distress ink and finished the card off with a button and some cream seam binding ribbon.

Wish me luck, would love to have a guest spot!

Merry Kiss Moose

Today I have a post to share that I made for

 Great Impressions Stamps

I am so excited to share with you a fun Christmas card I made using stamps from our newest addition to the Great Impression family of stamps.

For my card I used Merry Kiss Moose H236 and Happy Hearts B229

I cut Merry Kiss Moose out using a circle spellbinder die and colored him with copics and added some stickles to his shiny ornaments.

Here you can see the whole card and I love that I was able to use this fun Bo Bunny paper for the card. 

Don't forget this is a release week so check back daily to see more new stamps.

Unfortunately, I didn't use any fun cut out shapes. This is a pre-written post as I am recovering from having my son.  I did this card a little in advance and though lets start the Christmas card roll. I know a lot of you out there probably started making a ton of Christmas cards already.  My pile is growing just a little bit. Last year I had one friend buy 12 of my fancy cards.... I was amazed as she bought almost all of my cards! This year I am around a lot more people that love cards so I have been actively listing them in my Etsy Store.

 How was everyone's Thanksgiving???? I hope everyone had a wonderful time and safe travels.

Today's post is for 

The Great Impressions Stamps

Well I made a fall style card using the stamp Daisy Flourish (E702).

I colored the image with copics and added some Sonic Silver Glitter from Sparkle n Sprinkle on the little flowers so they look like silver bells.

I used the spellbinder die label four I believe and inked all my edges with distress ink. 

The ribbon is from The Ribbon Girl.... I love the quality of the ribbons she sells!

The papers are from My Mind's Eye from a release I believe they had last year! 

Hope you like my simple creation. It is my final fall style card I think for this year.

Thanks for stopping by and hope I made a Great Impression.

Fluttering Butterflies by Sweet Pea Stamps artist Ching-Chou-Kuik using Authentique Papers

I used the scalloped rectangle dies to create a mat for the image and the space to write your own little message. The flowers are are from Wild Orchid Crafts and I am starting to wish I had a nice flourish die to add to this card. Looks like I know what I need to get next.

The Great Impression Stamps

Has a challenge this month of  

Anything Goes

For today's creation I used Bubbly Pig G468 and Bubble Over E767. I really figured this card could be a change from all Christmas and Happy New year cards out there. It is also a good happy card to start the week off. 

I was really excited to play with a new die I bought when I made this, but I don't have the machine that makes the largest one. I need a Grand Calibur bad to make some fun and larger shaped cards. 

I also used my normal circle die and scalloped square die. 

I don't think you can ever have enough dies. Lord knows my list for dies is extremely long with all the different brands out there. 

I really want tons of the Memory Box dies, Magnolia dies, and Marianne dies, with a little of the CL dies, and quite a few dies of the MFT dies.  I told you a long list. 

I think I got a little too carried away with using the distress ink and I cannot remember the brand of paper I used!

This card is made using an image supplied by the stamp fairy. I really enjoyed coloring it and matching it up with some papers.

I really loved using my snowflake die from Memory Box (I need more dies). I embellished the card with some green rhinestones for a pop and a lovely gardenia from Wild Orchid Craft on top of some ribbon from Really Reasonable Ribbon. 

Hope you get a chance to play with us before Christmas. Remember it is a two week challenge.
