How does Christmas inspire you? I love Christmas and I want to get everything I can out of it, so I have to stay organized! So, today's project made with the new Clear Dollar Stamp releases, Christmas Tree Delight Wheel and Tree Delight Tag set. So, today's challenge - how does Christmas inspire you. Post on splitcoast with keywork FFIF10.
This gift ensemble was made with the Clear Dollar Stamps new release, Christmas Tree Delight Wheel and Tree Delight Tag set . Other supplies include: a composition notebook, mini lunchbox, lip gloss, candy kisses, pen, ribbon, K & Co. DP, baha breeze paper and wild wasabi prints, and LOTS of bling. I had so much fun decorating all those cute little trees with gems! Hope you enjoy!
We have a lady who comes into our office once a week (or more if we need more help), who helps out. She's 79 and she can work hard! Last week she came in and announced the birth of her very first great grandchild. She said: "I've always been a great Grandma, but now it's official". So, I made this card to wish her congratulations on her brand new grandbaby. The image is one of the only baby images I have, mostly because I don't know alot of people who are having babies. It's from Bundle of Joy, from SU. I stamped the little bear and colored him with several different shades of brown, then went over him with ivory, using my copics. The card base is pirouette pink, layered with kiwi kiss and basic grey lily kate. I cut a circle with more lily kate and a scallop with kiwi kiss. I mounted the bear on it, grounding him with a ribbon, tied through the hardware with the matching sentiment. I think doodle this goes well with the bundle set, so I stamped a swirly and added a cute little flower. 
How obnoxious are those colors? But, how cute? And, besides, that's why they call it a challenge!
Yeah - finally got my Coon Wishes from CDS. This was the stamp of the month the month before I made the design team, but I had to have it! Today's challenge was Real red, kraft and black. So, I stamped the little raccon and decided that he just must have a buddy, so I stamped again! I colored both of the little guys with copics and cut them out. I cut into the one on the right a little so his buddy could sling his arm around his shoulder. Then I started with a kraft card base, layered with black, real red, kraft and basic grey. I cut basic grey and black with my curved rectangle nesties. The black was more than I wanted, so I just cut around the basic grey freehand. Next I stamped Hi, Friend on kraft, punched it with the small oval, added the large oval in black and tied on a ribbon. I also added ribbon to the card and called it done. It felt to me like it was missing something, but I was running late and had to get ready for work.
Here is my spin on today's challenge. I do not do stuff like this - all the folding and stuff. But, it was kind of fun for a change. And, it was actually pretty easy. I thought it looked a little like a wreath, so I chose a basic grey holly paper and mounted it on a striped "door", mounted on always artichoke. The cute little bird is from my new hero arts set. The card base is creamy caramel layered with cranberry crisp and another bg dp. I stamped the sentiment on creamy caramel with crandberry crisp ink and inked the edges with always artichoke, then punched it with the large oval punch - they need to make those in bigger sizes. Yeah, I have my nesties, but I still love my oval punches. Then I mounted a circle punch of the holly paper on a cranberry crisp label punch and slapped the oval on the top.
