Your Next Stamp Fun!

Hi Friends!  I still have some holiday cards to share, so you are going to have to bear with me.  But at the moment, I am just here to this super cutie card featuring Pheobe from Your Next Stamps.

I made this sweetie pie specifically for the current YNS Challenge #54.  I couldn't decide between the sketch or the inspiration photo, so I used BOTH!  Which one would you have picked?

Isn't she just the cutest?!  She is from the set Ice Skating Phoebe and the sentiment is from Vacation Phoebe.  I coupled them with this Sugar Peas Circle die with the perfect background DP to pick up the green in the inspiration photo.  I finished it with some Memory Box snowflakes.  She was fun to color and this was fun to make! 

Thanks for visiting! 

Poppy's Christmas

One more today?  Why not.

Check out this cute little critter.  Ah-dorable right!?!  

This sweet guy is from Some Odd Girl Stamps.  I colored with my Copics and paired with this fun plaid paper.  The scalloped edge is from Pretty Pink Posh.   The best part of it all is that tiny little sentiment that you can't see, it says, "not a creature was stirring..."

Pretty apt for this time of day on Christmas Eve eh....  pretty soon Jolly St. Nick will be making his way down the chimneys.

Whatever you celebrate, I hope you and yours enjoy Christmas, Kwanzaa, Hanukkah or whatever you choose!

Love and Peace!

HOX3

T-minus 1 day and counting until Christmas.  That said, maybe I should save this posting for tomorrow, but I can't wait to share this sweet card.  I just love these images from MFT.  Birdie Brown really has the cutest images.  

I made this by using my PTI scallop Square Die.  I layered this, Carta Bella Ephemera Post card on top of that.  The Ho3 is stamped directly on the post card.  The images are stamped separately, colored with Copics and fussy cut.  You may be a fussy cut hater, but it makes for cute stuff. 

This card is the flipped version of this MFT sketch. 

Enjoy your Christmas Eve!

In the woods

Back again.  I have a clean and simple card here for you to check out today. 

This card is so simple.  I've got a strip of Carta Bella paper across the bottom.  Two cut trees from Yvonne Creations.  I added the buck compliments of Impression Obsession and finally added the sentiment from Concord & 9th by stamping tone on tone.

Under the Sea Hoiliday

Not everyone lives in snowy places and holidays can look a bit different if you live somewhere topical.  Though, I love the holiday season and the area I live, I wouldn't complain about a bit of ocean and sun!  

This card features a Memory Box die in front of some SU! paper that I embossed with swirls.  I love that this die passes for a branch or coral.  I used it as coral to set the scene for my Ocean "Christmas Tree!"  I colored this sweet Reverse Confetti mermaid and starfish and used my corresponding dies.  I am pretty pleased with the outcome. 

What do you think an Ocean under the sea looks like?

Stoked

Feeling stoked about Christmas yet?  I am!  

...as evidenced by my card featuring 98% Avery Elle products from the dies to the stamp sets.  The Paper is SU!  And some glitter paper ta boot.  Love the DP on the mountains, it makes me happy.  I also loved coloring the sweet penguins, especially the tiny one!

I sent this holiday card to a friend who I know loves this little gondola die. You know who you are. :) 

I purchased my Snow Caps die set from The Heart Desires Store and got the Stoked stamp set from my friend Kimberly.

Tree Farm

Recently I saw a card on my friend Amy's blog that I totally fell in love with.  So cute!

Isn't it just the sweetest?!

I don't have this sweet set but I decided to make my own version of this using some Lawn Fawn and Sweet Stamp Shop stamps.  I used colors and papers to create a retro feel.  The paper and woodgrain adds to that feel (and reminds me a bit of my father's kitchen....)  Here is my loose CAS(e) of Amy's card. 

The colors and textures are perfect for this month's The Heart Desires Challenge.

Hope you have a wonderful holiday, be it traditional or non!
