Where did you get that hat?!

I have never really seen critters wearing clothes (minus the dressed up dog here and there) but I have to say, imagining it in nature kinda makes me giggle.  Can you imagine coming upon a winter scene with these little ones wearing clothes and maybe even decorating a Christmas Tree?  It would be too precious!


I started this creation by stamping these Sweet Avery Elle images on watercolor paper.  I used a combo of my zigs and my Spectrum Noir Sparkle Pens to create the colors.  Once I had my scene created I decided to frame in in this oval (MFT die) with the Gina Marie Die outside.  I like the white on white and the little extra glittery holly on the front.

From our Igloo to yours...

You may have noticed, but one thing that makes me happy is a cute scene with sweet little characters, dimension and color.   When I created this card, it just made me smile.
 

This card features some SUPER ADORABLE images from Pretty Pink Posh.  I love the soft colors here as I feel like they would be appropriate on this type of landscape.  The background features some Distress Oxide inks from Ranger and on top of that is a MFT die to help set up this fun winter scene. 

I don't know about you, but if I was one of these cuties, I would for sure have cocoa in my hand, brrr....looks cold! 

From our igloo to yours, wishing you a wonderful holiday season!

Holly Jolly

Me thinks I need say very little about this card...  Yeti....


Seriously LOVE this guy from MFT.  I paper pieced the scarf and the tree is from a Lawn Fawn set.  You can see the Avery Elle impression around the edge.  I love how the green enamel dots pop against the red paper!

This card makes puts me in a Holly Jolly mood. 💖

Thanks for your visit today!

He's Makin' a List....

I sure hope you aren't getting sick of my holiday cards yet because I have a LOT more to share!  All in all, I think I've made about 65 this year.  I am no good at duplication, so when I send out my cards they are all different.  



This is another fun one that is a bit further from my typical style (no, I don't do great with CAS).  But this guy really doesn't need an entourage; he is center stage and proud of it!  Colored using my Copics is this sweet Santa from SugarPea Designs.  The DP is from last season and I can't remember who makes it, pulled it out of my scrap bin because it is still lovely and really makes the perfect backdrop for Mr. C.  I cut the DP using my Avery Elle die and then added some sparkly enamel dots from Freckled Fawn.

What do you think of this blue and red color combo?  Not Christmasy enough or just right?

SEA-son's Greetings

More holiday fun to be had here with Sea Santa....



The image is from Waffle Flower and borrowed from my sweet friend Toni (Frankie Helps Craft).  I colored with my Copics and used my Hero Arts Infinity dies to cut it out.  The backdrop uses and Echo Park stencil that looks like mermaid/fish scales, I used a combo of two greens from Ranger Distress Inks to add the color.  The wood chip stars are from Studio Calico. 

This is a fun card for those beach lovers in your life.

So darn cute and I LOVE this color combo.  The dies and stamps are from Craftin' Desert Divas.  I colored with my Copics.  The sentiment is from Your Next Stamp.  

Don't you just love all the layers and dimension, so fun and cute!  Did I mention cute yet?  If not, let me tell you that bear and it's snowbear are both ADORABLE!
