Baby, it's cold!

 Hi there! I have a fun snowman card to share with you today. 

This card uses Technique Junkies 'SD966 Snowman', and A Colorful Life Stencil, 'Baby It's Cold'. 

The snowman was stamped using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. A bit of coloring with Copic markers, and highlighting with a white gel pen, and this image was ready for fussy cutting! I stenciled on a white panel, added the snowman with pop dots, and put a few gemstones on snowflakes for bling.

I think this turned out well! I can't resist a cute snowman - how about you?

Technique Junkies stamps make such beautiful cards!

Designer's Choice Challenge at The House that Stamps Built

Happy New Year, everyone!

This is my third post today - if you are looking for my 2 Crafty Critter Crazies post, or my Seasons Givings post, scroll up (or down?) to find it!!

Wow...a new year, a new decade!  And of course, a new challenge at 'The House'!

It's time for another Repeat Impressions Stamps challenge at The House that Stamps Built, and we have a new Designer’s Choice Challenge for you. Shirley is our hostess for the month, and has challenged us all to use our RI stamps to bring back a childhood memory! Please join us in our challenge, and create something using the theme: "Create a card using an image that brings back a childhood memory.".  

This was an easy one for me. We grew up a bit on the poorer side, so most of our fun was created by just being outside and doing 'things'. One of the things I loved most about childhood in Chicago was ice skating!

Here's what I made using these Repeat Impressions Stamps:

2006 H Let it Snow

4714 L Snow Skating

I did a bit of coloring with Copic markers, added some gel pen dots on hat and scarf, fussy cut the image, and adhered a die cut of metallic silver (ice rink, right?) at the base of the image.  For the card base, I found a fun border die, and stenciled a pattern in the background. Popped up the image and voila!

This was a fun challenge - thanks Shirley!!!

 And now it’s your turn!

We hope you will create a card that has a focus on today’s DCC theme, and enter it in our challenge at The House that Stamps Built!  Remember, your creation does not have to be made with Repeat Impressions stamps, but if you would like to include our designs we would love to see them!  Plus, there’s an added bonus… you will get an additional entry in our random.org drawing for using our stamps in your submissions!

One lucky person this month will win a $25 Repeat Impressions Gift Certificate!

Now, it's time to see what my DT friends have created!

Designer's Choice Challenge at The House that Stamps Built

Happy 1st Wednesday in November!

Almost turkey time - is everyone ready for that afternoon, after turkey nap?

It's time for another Repeat Impressions Stamps challenge at The House that Stamps Built, and we have a new Designer’s Choice Challenge for you. Our hostess for the month is Laurie, and she has challenged us to 'Frame It'! Please join us in our challenge, and create something using the theme: "Frame It".  

Here's what I made using this Repeat Impressions Stamp:

8803 F Coolest Christmas

For my card, I started with a white card base, and added a piece of patterned paper. I then die cut the Snowman Frame die from white cardstock, decorated him with a bit of red, orange and black, and gave him some gifts (also from the patterned paper).  Stamped and framed the sentiment! Added an additional 'gift' to the inside of the card.

 And now it’s your turn!

We hope you will create a card that has a focus on today’s DCC theme, and enter it in our challenge at The House that Stamps Built!  Remember, your creation does not have to be made with Repeat Impressions stamps, but if you would like to include our designs we would love to see them!  Plus, there’s an added bonus… you will get an additional entry in our random.org drawing for using our stamps in your submissions!

Snow Couple

Hi all!

Brrr.....Mother Nature has chilled us here in the midwest!

Thought I'd share a cute image that I colored last night, using Copic Markers. This is a Whimsy Stamps Digital Image, called Snow Couple. Isn't it adorable?  Of course, with Valentine's Day coming up, it had to have a few hearts added in!

Hope you are staying in, where it's warm!

I'm going to enter this in the challenge at Cute Card Thursday.

Thanks for stopping by today!

Hugs and blessings,

Freezin' Season

Hello!

I'm so excited about this sweet digi image that I snagged from 7 Kids College Fund the other day. They had a 24 hour 'free image' giveaway on Facebook, and you all know that I cannot resist a cute snowman!

This sweetie was colored with Copic markers, and was truly a 1/2 hour card, start to finish!

Here it is:

How cute is this?

If you don't follow them already, be sure to do so! It's a fun group!

Thanks for stopping by today,
