Snowflakes and Stockings Continued...

Here's where the stockings come in...

This second card uses one of Elisabeth Bell's images from Whiff of Joy Stamps. The image is from the 2009 Winter Kit. I am also entering this in the monthly challenge over at Elisabeth Bell's World Challenge Blog.

The image was colored with Copics and then distressed with Vintage Photo distress ink. I stamped some swirls with holly using a stamp from the dollar bin at Michael's. The candy cane stamp is from the Christmas Words stamp set from Inkadinkado. I used Fired Brick distress ink on craft paper and distressed the edges of everything with Vintage Photo. The scallop square is from a Spellbinders die and the snowflakes were made using a Martha Stewart punch and Fired Brick distress ink and Stickles.

Here's the inside of the card.

Thanks for stopping by. Have a wonderful day!

Snowflakes and Stockings

Two more cards to share today. Still Christmas cards. The monthly challenge over at the Elisabeth Bell's World challenge blog is a winter theme. I just love her images and the biggest problem is chosing which one to use.

This first card uses the Letters to Santa image from the Elisabeth Bell Digital Collection found here.

It's colored with Copics and I added some stickles glitter for the snow and the trim on her hat and coat. The snowflake is a Quickutz die and the scalloped circles was made with a spellbinders die. I used Vintage Photo and Antique Linen distress inks to add a vintage feel to the card.

Peppermint Kisses

Hello. Hope everyone had a great weekend. The challenge this week over at Bella Digi Studio is to use velvet or flocking. I've never used flocking before so I ran over to AC Moore and picked some up. I used the freebie that was offered and is part of the July new releases. It's called My New Coat and she's just adorable, isn't she??? I decided to use a winter theme for her. I colored her with Copics and added some white glittery flocking to her ear muffs, fur on the coat and around her boots. I added some distress ink around the image with spun sugar, then went over that with barn door. I used a rubber stamp to emboss the design on each side and used fired brick distress embossing powder. I made the circle sentiment myself and added some peppermints with a Martha Stewart punch.

Please stop over at the challenge blog and see what the other DT members have done and leave some love. Thanks.

Happy Monday!
