12/30/19 - CAS(E) this Sketch - Heartwarming Memories

Happy Monday! I was away to Indiana at my in-laws for the Christmas holidays, it was kind of relaxing. Sadly I had to check my work emails but it was nice overall and I am so glad to be home again! Today's card is using CAS(E) this sketch challenge. I am always looking for a good design to use to create a batch of Christmas cards and also used up the DSP that I got for the holidays and I think this is such a good one. In the Snowman DSP, there are few busy patterns that I just don't know how to use and showcase and I think this will be a good layout. Paired up the busy pattern with a more subtle one. I hope you like this card I am sharing today and hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas break.

12/19/19 - Freshly Made Sketch - Very Merry

Happy Thursday, I am so glad this week is almost over, work has been kicking my @$$! Today's card is using Freshly Made Sketch. Again, I used lots of DSP to showcase my card and it was very quick and simple to create. I truly can't get enough of the DSP, the main image of the snow lady is from the DSP that I just cut out. And I added a quick and fun sentiment to finish of the card. Pretty straight forward I think. Hope you like this quick creation today.

12/17/19 - CASE-ing Tuesday - Snowman

Today's card is using CASE-ing Tuesday on FB from page 29 of the current holiday catalog. Again, I can't stress enough how much I love our catalog for inspiration. This layout is simple but you can make it into more of layering cards if you want. I kept it simple and clean by just using the DSP on the Whisper White cardstock and added some *bling* to jazz it up a little bit. I continue to use the Snowman stamp set for my card this week as I want to make as much Christmas cards as I can to use for this/next year! I hope you like the card I am sharing today!

12/16/19 - Global Design Project - Snowman Card

Today's card is using Global Design Project - CASE the designer! I stayed pretty true to the card and made it into a Christmas card. I still can't believe that Christmas is next week, where did 2019 goes?? I am still using the Snowman stamp set and the coordinating paper. The card is pretty quick and easy and it also used up a lot of DSP which I will need to do! I hope you like this quick card I am sharing today!

12/15/19 - Sunday Stamps - Let It Snow

Happy Sunday - I don't have much time today but still wanted to create something so I found the challenge at Sunday Stamps. It's a simple layout so I can create a quick and easy card with the short amount of time and I also flip the sketch horizontally so I can feature this awesome panel piece from the Let it Snow DSP. All I did is cut down the DSP to fit the card sideways and added 2 strips of the DSP that coordinate with the paper. I also stamped the sentiment and punch it out with 1 3/4" Circle Punch. I hope you like this quick and easy card today and have a wonderful Sunday!

12/14/19 - CAS(E) this Sketch - Let It Snow

Today's card is using CAS(E) This Sketch. I haven't been using my Oval Layering Dies and when I saw the sketch, I thought to myself, it's a great time to make a card with it

The theme here is Christmas and I also used the circle layering dies for the snowman image. I like how simple it is to make and also love the simple look. Hope you like the card I am sharing today!

12/12/19 - TSOT - A Joyful Christmas To You

Today's card is using Trying Stampin' On Tuesday! I love the simplicity of the layout and was very thrilled to be able to create a Christmas with it.

12/11/19 - CASE-ing Tuesday - Snowman Card

Today's card is using CASE-ing Tuesday Challenge (pg 22) from the current Holiday Catalog. I love our catalog for always have inspiration cards to share with us and with CASE-ing Tuesday, they provided us with measurement if you need it. I used the Snowman Season stamp set and the paper that came in the suite to create this festive card. The card is pretty straight forward. I just realized that I forgot to put a hat on the snowman, oh well!

12/9/19 - CASE-ing Tuesday - Merry Christmas

Happy Monday! Finally made a card today using CASE-ing Tuesday (on FB). I am def. behind on creating more Christmas and using up my Snowman DSP but I will try my best. If not, I will have to continue to use this stamp set to create more holiday cards for 2020. We are CASEing Holiday catalog pg. 12 and I decided to just use one stamp image of Snowman instead a row of them. I colored it in with Watercolor Pencils and paired it with Blender Pen. I really like how this turned out and I think with the given dimension, I can make multiple of this! I hope you like the card I am sharing today.

12/3/19 - Global Design Project - Let's Celebrate You

Today's card is using Global Project Design sketch challenge. I decided to use some colors that I think might go well together, what do you think?? The butterfly and the sentiments are both using reinkers with aqua painter to create a watercolor look with Stazon Ink. Decided to use the panel piece of Purple Posey, still not sure if they all worked together. Hope you enjoy this quick card I am sharing today!

12/2/19 - The Paper Players

Welcome to December, still can't believe that Thanksgiving came and gone and we are counting down to Christmas already. Today's card is using The Paper Players Theme Challenge - Frosty the Snowman. The card LITERALLY came together in 5 min! I used the DSP from Let It Snow pack and find the panel of all the snowman and cut it down to size to fit the card. Then layer a Basic Black and stamped a sentiment and added some jewels and voila, here is your card!! If you have a pack of this DSP, it's such a quick and easy way to make a bunch of Christmas cards.
