happy Holidays

3/9/21 DT Favorite at Sweet Stampers Challenge Blog!

Hi everyone! I hope you had a great weekend! Affiliate links are used in this post at no cost to you. I really appreciate your support! It’s time for a new challenge over at Merry Little Challenge blog and I’m thrilled to share my DT inspiration project for MLCCB #32 – March Anything Christmas Goes! I created an adorable clean and simple Christmas card featuring a Lawn Fawn stamp set with coordinating die, along with a sentiment stamp from The Project Bin used on the inside.

I think this is one of the easiest cards I’ve ever created, lol! It worked up so fast – I stamped the penguin, colored him with alcohol markers and die cut him with the coordinating die, then adhered him to the front of the Neenah Classic Crest Solar White 110# cardstock card base. I stamped the sentiment in black ink, then stamped the snowflakes and his jump pattern in light aqua ink. The final touch was the addition of a tiny iridescent gemstone in the center of each snowflake.

I kept the inside CAS as well, with a single strip of light aqua cardstock down the left side and a sentiment stamped in black ink.

And one more look… totally happy with this CAS design!

Crazy cat lady and crafting junkie! We have 10 feline rescues. I’m addicted to stamping and love making cards, ATCs, and 3-D projects (especially paper shoes, paper purses and mini albums). I also dabble in mixed media, art journaling, altered art and custom jewelry. If you’re looking for me, I’ll either be in my studio or getting some kitty lovins! ;)
