FS409 Best Wishes

Good morning! This weeks Featured Stamper 409 is Sara aka shoogendoorn. A full gallery of creativity and I choose this Creative crew card to case. I kept the over all layout, colors and a masculine theme. Changed the stamp, added a button and a sentiment oval and dp. Voila! 

This is a digital image from Delicious Doodles called Deer and Fawn. They are printed on white card stock and layered on chocolate, then kraft card stocck. I added a button and twine combo to the sentiment. One of the guys at hubby's work is leaving and we will miss him. He is a huge hunter so I know he will love this. Voila! 

I don't know about your week last week, but mine was crazy. We had three away games that we got home late each night from and a Christmas party. We put up our Christmas tree yesterday and I am just plain ole tuckered out! This week not much slower as another 3 games only one of them is a home game, thankfully. not to mention all the goodies I need to make this week for the bags and all those tags I created. Ai yi yi... I do love it all though! Crazy but I like the month of December!  ;-) Hope you have a fabulous week! 

Sending Cheer the bold way

Good Morning and Happy Friday! Bold card today, right?  :-)  Yep a splash of bold was in the mix on the desk so I went for it. My card is using Poinsettia that is stamped on white card stock and colored with Copics. This green designer paper is a vibrant green so i went with it for the colors. A simple card at that as my week has been crazy busy. Stamped the sentiment for the corner a few sequins ( in orange even) and some sparkles. Voila!

Secret Santa's

Yep these little guys are the perfect card for the job. This is a card I will give to my friend that has been getting these secret cards. Along with the card I also ordered her a coffee mug with a House Mouse image on the side. She is going to love it! I have to say I am totally enjoying watching her open the cards and gush over them not knowing who they are from. Although someone almost spilled the beans the other day by accident.  :-)  So far so good though. Anyways.....

This is called Swiss Ribbons that I stamped on white card stock and colored with Copic markers. Layred onto some red card stock. Grabbed some designer paper from the scrap bin and layered onto a spellbinders Die cut frame. Added lace trim and bakers twine still on the desk to the bottom. A few red sequins and sparkles to the ribbon. Voila!

I stamped this Candy Cane onto white card stock and colored with Copics. Die cut with an oval shape and popped up on dimensionals. Textured the base with some swiss dots before wrapping lace trim and bakers twine. Added  a few sequin and my sentiment and voila! Easy Peasy today. Have a wonderful day.

Winter Blitz Collection day 2

Welcome to day 2 of our Winter Blitz collection with Camellias! Jewels of the winter greenhouse, stars of Southern gardens, and the state flower of Alabama. Camellias are a symbol of passion, desire and refinement. Marcy was inspired by the Camellias from the gorgeous collection at the Linnean House of the Missouri Botanical Garden. 

My Camellia's today are delicately colored with soft yellows and green. I found this picture on Pinterest that was just perfect for my inspiration. After the flowers were colored I cut very carefully around the image and added dimensionals to the back. 

Then just added a few things to the kraft card stock panel with some flourished pearls and tied a ribbon bow around with a button twine center. A Spellbinders decorative frame for the base and voila!
