Believe in the Magic of Christmas

There's a fun card using Mama Elephant's set "Believe" and PTI's Tremendous Treats. To create the background, I stamped it using PTI's Super Stripes.

I also added my new favorite embellishment, Enamel Dots!

Have a great day!

Happy Hanukkah

I just love Suzanne's sketch this week for the latest Retrosketch challenge!



I used PTI's wine bottle tag die to cut my shape, and then cut again with the menorah die.
The background white cardstock is impressed with the Woodgrain IP, and a strip of Aqua Mist polka dot paper is peeking from under the white ribbon. I opted to stamp the sentiment inside the card and leave the front very clean.

Thanks for looking!

Warm Holiday Wishes



Happy Thursday! I had some time to stamp yesterday and made this card based off of Renee's wonderful sketch!

Photobucket

All the lantern parts are from Bright Season by Waltzingmouse Stamps and the sentiment is from Mama Elephant. The papers come from a patterned paper by PTI.

Hope you have a great day!

Chocolate-inspired card

Almost forgot to post this! Our last challenge for The Card Caravan was to create a card in honor of "National Chocolate Day". (I know that many of you missed this important holiday, so feel free to indulge now to make up for it ;) )

Photobucket

I used some digital papers and elements from eNKay Designs Sweet Summer kit, and then added buttons, resin flowers and twine. That brown paper just screamed "chocolate bar" to me.

Hope you have a great day!
