Delicous Doodles - #11 - Winter Wonderland

It's time for another great challenge over at Delicious Doodles...and although it's nearing 60 degrees here in Colorado on this beautiful January day, I know that we are still in the middle of winter... and that any day now we will be covered in the white winter wonderland that comes so often this time of the year. That's our challenge this week - "Winter Wonderland". Teri has some amazing new images that are perfect for this challenge. I used this great one called Katarina, but she's done three in this series... Head over to the challenge blog for some awesome samples from the design team. I promise you will be inspired! Join this week for a great chance at winning some of Teri's images from Delicious Doodles.

I used a Provo Craft embossing stencil for the background of my Copic colored and fussy cut image. Then I cut a bunch of snowflakes using my Cricut. I put those on top of the embossed image to add another layer of frosty delight. They then got a little dose of glitter glue as well. The papers were just out of my scrap stash. I added some handstitching and the sentiment stamp is a Studio G dollar bin find.

I will be entering this card in the following challenges:

Stampavie and More - #160 - Winter
Addicted to Stamps - January - Blue
The Sisterhood of Crafters - Snow
Dare to be Sassy Thursday - #108 - Winter colors
Pixie Cottage - #104 - Embossing

CYP #90 - Sketch

Craft Your Passion has a sketch challenge going this week - check out the great sketch! We got a chance to pick our own image this time around and I couldn't wait to work on this adorable one from Mo Manning... Isn't she just the cutest? A coworker was moving and I offered to make a card for everyone to sign and this image was just perfect for it! I love the way the card turned out!

I used my Copics for coloring, the sketch for design, some Basic Grey design papers for the background, my Cricut to cut the spiral flowers and mat, gems to put in the center of the flowers, some Creative Impressions silk ribbon for a bubbly bow and made some fun stick pens out of some jewelry making supplies I had around. The sentiment is a Studio G stamp from the dollar bin at my local craft store.

I hope you join us at Craft Your Passion - the sketch is such a great one this time around and I would love to see your interpretation of it!

CYP 87 - Anything Goes + Glitter - Pixie Cottage

Craft Your Passion has an easy one going on this week. The challenge is Anything Goes with glitter! I'll be honest, when I went to make this card with this relaxing scene from Pixie Cottage I forgot I was supposed to use glitter on it... So, I pulled out my trusty micro glitter pen (love that thing) and went crazy. My end result turned out better than I had hoped. I love the way it covered on my Copics and turned ordinary things into metalic looking chairs and table. I edged just about all the papers with it as well. The flowers are a Cricut die cut from the Flower Shoppe cartridge... so easy to make to match all the papers! The papers were from Die Cuts With A View and I really have no idea who the sentiment stamp is from. It just screamed easel card since the chairs and table need to stand - LOL.

No excuses for not joining the fun at Craft Your Passion this week - easy challenge and lots of great prizes. Hope to see what you create!

Craft Your Passion #71 - Pixie Cottage

This adorable image came from The Pixie Cottage. Doesn't it just make you smile? It's so cute! I colored her with my Copics and then put a hint of a cloudy sky behind her. I thought it was the perfect image for this snow globe with pink glitter dancing all around her. I added a pretty bubbly bow to it to finish it off. I can't wait to gift this one to the five year old little girl that has a birthday next month! =)
