Gray Snowflake Soriee


A very merry Christmas to you...at least that's what my card for today says. :)  We have a sketch challenge for you over at 'Tis the Season for our next challenge and it was a fun one to work with.  I didn't get four cards done this week like I was hoping to because I couldn't decide what colors I wanted to use in the first place.  By the time I had figured out what ones I was going to use there just wasn't any time left.  I was trying to figure out what to do for another challenge that I'm involved with and my daughter (who hates card making!) was even throwing a few ideas my way. :)

I hope you like what I've created this week!

Here's the sketch.  If you get a chance check out all the other cards made by the design team HERE.  As always they have great cards to share with you.  Make sure you play along too so you can get a head start on your Christmas cards.  It will be here before you know it!



Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Shimmery Snowflake Soiree

Today's card is a color challenge from 'Tis The Season...Tempting Turquoise, Melon Mambo and Pear Pizzazz with the optional trim of adding glitter. I wasn't sure how the colors would look together, but I think I actually got them to work out. :)  So did the other ladies so make sure you check out all the other designers' cards and play along with us HERE too!  When I made my first card I was only going to make the snowflakes glittery, but that took too long because I'd have to clean the stamp off every time I stamped it.  That's when I decided to make the whole top piece sparkle instead of just the snowflakes.  The vote at my house was for the 2nd card that was all glittery. ;)

The first card...




The second card...


...and the group of four.  I'm still determined to  make four cards each time so I'm not spending so much time next fall working on all of them.  :)



Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Soft Snowflakes

Today is very exciting for me...I've joined the Try Stampin' on Tuesday team, and I'm happy to share my first card with you as a designer!  I've seen a lot of Christmas cards out there already and thought I'd pull out one of my favorite sets from last year and use it ~ Snowflake Soiree.  Since I had a window sheets packet sitting around unopened I decided to give them a try too.  I ended up embossing white snowflakes on a small piece of window sheet layered on the front over pool party card stock. Then I also stamped and embossed a few more on the front part of the card where it's just clear and the "love you" under the ribbon.  The Circles are attached to the pool party card stock underneath the window sheets.  I found out how quickly and easily we can hide where we attach our layers and ribbons, etc. when using regular card stock.  I had to be a little creative in a few spots with this card! 




Just a couple more pics so you can see the card at different angles and not just straight on. :)





Pop on over to the Try Stampin' on Tuesday blog HERE and play along if you get a chance. :)

RHSSC - Snowflake Soiree

Welcome to another card for the Red Hot Stampers' sketch challenge.  This week's sketch was another simple one. :)  Since we're supposed to be getting snow this coming week I thought I'd make another card with snowflakes.  Since I haven't used Marina Mist in quite a while I thought it was time to pull it out again.  Yup, a perfect color to go with snowflakes. 
Remember that we are giving out blog candy for those that participate in this month's Red Hot challenge.  Head over to the Red Hots' blog here to see what we're giving away and to see what everyone else made with this week's sketch.

Winter Thank You

Just a few more thank yous to show you today.  I ran out of my other stash and decided to make them a lot more simple this time...and I like them better!  Why couldn't I do this the first time around? lol

Snowflake Soiree Christmas

Well I've been taking a break from blogging this Christmas season, but that doesn't mean I wasn't still busy working on things.  This is one of the cards I made when my dad came to me a week or so before Christmas and asked if I would make a card for my mom, and I said I'd be glad to.  I actually didn't procrastinate too much on this one either...amazing!  Since her favorite color is blue I decided to use a few different colors of blue and blend (sponge) them together using the emboss resist technique.  I've already done a couple of cards with this technique lately, but really liked a card my stamping friend Christi made and wanted to add some "swirls" in with a darker blue like she did.  I love how it turned out!    



I'm also entering it into the Friday Mashup challenge #90.  This week's theme is "Snowflakes" and/or colors Whisper White, Pool Party, Midnight Muse and Basic Black.  Super close on the colors for making the card over a week ago!  



Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Merry!

I'm finally back to posting another card.  Let's just say I can't wait until I open my present at Christmas...my own hand selected laptop!  Yeah!!!  I'm hoping that will make my whole downloading pics process easier. :)  Plus no more stealing the other laptop when someone else is on it, and hopefully no more troubles downloading the pics from my memory card!  
I made today's card for a couple of reasons...  I needed a card to give to my upline for helping me out of a jam again and again (I know it doesn't say thank you, but that's what we demos do).  Plus I wanted to enter another sketch challenge, so I used Saturday Sketch challenge 9 over at Stamping and Blogging.  By the way I think I'm a little hooked on these colors.  I love how they look together!

Emboss Resist Snowflake Soiree

Today's card is one of my December stamp a stack cards.  I love the three blues combined using the emboss resist technique.  It's kind of hard to see in the pic, but I also spritzed it with shimmer paint.  A lot of my cards have the sparkle of shimmer paint spritzed on them.  :)  It's kind of funny because when it comes to clothes I'm very low key, but my cards are another story...make 'em sparkle! lol

Snowflake Soiree

It's Sunday so that means it's time for another Red Hot Stampers' sketch challenge.  Today I used a new stamp set (new to me!) that I won at the Lansing Regional!!  Yes, I thought I would get out of standing and waving my arms and clapping when I made it through all the prize patrols...except the last one!  I think everyone at my table would be so excited when it was prize patrol time, and I would groan just a little. lol  I don't mind winning, but something about being in the spotlight just isn't for me!  If I thought that was bad I had the biggest surprise of all at the very end of the day.  You'll have to check out my blog tomorrow to find out what that surprise was. :)  Remember to check out the other Red Hot Stampers cards here.
