Merry Christmas -- Stackable Santa

 Hi there, I'm back again to share a card and wish you a happy Friday!  
I created a snowy scene using ...
 The image is coloured with Copic Markers and Liquid Applique was applied to Santa's beard and clothing. 
I love the look of Liquid Applique and how it puffs up when heated. It's something new for me and I'm hooked!

A bell was hot glued to the twine, along with a touch of acrylic paint. 
Two embossing folders were used to help create a snowy scene. The hill was hand cut and Santa is pop dotted for extra dimension.   A friend of mine gave me the Merry Christmas Die cut which I LOVE (thank you J)! I added a bit of glitter and slightly curved the words almost like Santa is holding the  greeting.
 Here's the markers I used ....

Wishing you a Cowboy Christmas! - High Hopes Stamps


Happy Happy Friday! 
I've been colouring up this fun Cowboy Snowman from High Hopes and created a Christmas Card with this cute guy! 


 The image is coloured with Copic Markers, fussy cut and pop doted for some dimension. I decided to create my own text on the front of the card to read Howdy as the greeting. 

On the inside of the card I'm trying to decide on a sentiment such as ...
1) Wishing you a Cowboy Christmas 
or 
2) Quit horsing around and have a Merry Christmas!
or
3) Kick off your boots and have a Merry Christmas!
:)
Such fun! My friend Cheryl came up with the last two sentiments and I love them both! It's a hard decision on which one to choose...... I think I'm going to use #2 !!
Thanks for peeking, have a great weekend!

Awesome and Wonderful -- High Hopes Stamps


Happy Wednesday!
I'm back with a Wintery scene to share using...

The Image is coloured with Copic Markers. Two embossing folders were used here, the background reindeer and Swiss dots.  One Crazy Stamper always has such a nice selection of folders to choose from!
I love using white acrylic paint to create a snowy background.  I use an oval craft sponge to dab on soft touches of paint unevenly  on the trees an a bit on the snowlady too :)

The trees are from an old Sizzix die  and the yummy soft cotton twine is also from OCS found  here!
Thanks for peeking! 
Have a great day!

Christmas in July! High Hopes Stamps

Hi there, Happy Wednesday!
We are celebrating Christmas in July over on the High Hopes website. 
I think this is the perfect opportunity to get my Christmas Cards all ready for  December. 
I don't want a repeat of  last year as  I ended up buying my Christmas Cards :(  I left them to the last minute and  was too busy in December to get them done.   

Creation made with ...

 To start off I grabbed a plastic box out of the recycle bin.  This one was from a box of chocolates and the lid has a beveled design (which is kinda neat). 
I made a little kit to help assist in sending out my cards this year. 
The kit consists of ...
Address Book
Tin with Christmas Seals and Stickers
Small Set of Snowman Rubber Stamps & ink
Vintage night before Christmas Book and Vintage Photo for added fun
twine
The container is lined  on the bottom with some fun Vintage Santa card stock |:)
 Here's the handmade Address Book and  Christmas Seal  Tin. (which is made with an Altoids Tin)
I like to decorate the envelopes (when sending my cards) with Stickers and stamped Christmas Images.  I also ask for the Christmas Stamps at the post office for a  nice festive touch!
 A peek at the top of the box. The ribbon is easily removed as there is Velcro on the bottom of the box :)
 A peek inside the Vintage  1947 Night before Christmas. I love the graphics so much!

Now I just need Christmas Cards added and I will be ready!!
Thanks for peeking, have a great day!
