Peace on Earth Challenge #85

 

 Hello Friends and welcome back to my blog! 
SO happy you stopped by!

Today I have a card to share for the new challenge over on the PEACE ON EARTH CHRISTMAS CHALLENGE BLOG.  Of course the theme is Anything Christmas and we hope you'll come join in the fun! 

Here's a fun inspiration board we've created to help get you started ...

 Today's card was inspired by the snowman face in the lower left corner of the inspiration board.   I had this donation card laying on my work table and thought it would make a good backdrop for Mr. Snowman.  The die set I've used for my snowman is by Hunkydory, called 'Do You Want to Build a Snowman' (#MSTONE036).  The branch in the upper right corner of my card comes from another Hunkydory set called 'Festive Fairies (#MSTONE030). 

 I die cut my Penny Black 'Winter Cheer' (#51-255) sentiment from white & red card stock then off set them so they would stand out a bit more.

 PLEASE be sure to pop over to THE BLOG and check out the amazing designs our design team has created for your inspiration.  What a group of talented ladies!!  Then come join in the fun!!  

 

As always ... thanks again for stopping by!

  Hello Dear Friends

It's a new month and that means it's time for a new challenge over on our
LOVE THOSE PRETTY PAPERS blog.

Diane & I will be sharing a Themed pretty paper card as well as an Anything Goes card.

 Here's my card using today's THEME:

Sizzix Oval dies
Stampin' Up (circa 1999) sentiment stamp (front)
Computer generated sentiment (inside)

 

 And, here is my 2nd card (anything goes) ...

 

 

 Use the beautiful Mintay 'Springtime' 6x6 designer paper for the background

through Etsy (long ago) and fussy cut.

I've scored along the right edge and lower left corner for dimension

Simply Clean & Simple (4/25) - Umbrellas

 Hello my friends and welcome to my blog!

Today I have a card to share for our challenge blog using the CAS (clean & simple) design style. 
Our blog is called Simply Clean & Simple and today's OPTIONAL theme is:

Umbrellas

Today's card was created using dies from the Sue Wilson 'Rain or Shine' (CED23017 ) set and the sentiment is a die from Frantic Stamper (FRA 9402) obviously called Spring.

Remember, our challenge is Anything Goes CLEAN & SIMPLE but we do offer an OPTIONAL theme.  You have until the 28th to share your CAS design into our challenge blog.

Hope to see you at SIMPLY CLEAN & SIMPLE!

As always . . .
