Merry Christmas

Hello and welcome back.

 Looks like it's time for the next challenge over at the Merry Little Christmas ChallengeThe Merry Little Christmas Challenge is an all-things-Christmas challenge blog welcoming any and all kinds of handmade Christmas creations all year long! This challenge starts today, September 1 and runs thru October 15.  That gives you lots of time to make a project and get it entered.

Personally, I love cards that are different and appealing lots of folds etc., so this one really called out to me. 

I inked the edges to add a distressed look to the layers on the columns and also the Santa image.

This card is really easy and takes very little time to make. And to top it off, it fits into an envelope and is mailable.




Cardstock, some designer paper and an image and a sentiment with some cool folds and you have a unique card 

The stamp is from Verses and has been around for quite a while but is still available today. (He's is my all time fav!!!)

Well, I hope to see your Christmas project entered in the MLC challenge, I will be looking for it.

Thanks for stopping in and I will be seeing you soon

Thank You

Thanks for stopping in today.

Today is the start of the Love To Scrap challenge. The challenge starts today, September 1 and runs til October 15. LTS is a scrapping challenge blog welcoming all types of scrapped projects - cards, scrapbook layouts, ATCs, mixed media, altered items, 3-D projects, etc. - using bits of leftover items in your stash or new stuff! 

I saw this card on Pinterest and it really caught my eye. I have 3 cats so this was a winner in my book. LOL

There were no directions, but after looking at the design for a few minutes, I came up with my own take on it. And I used some scraps of CS in my stash to make these cute kitties. And I used a "paws" embossing folder that was a perfect fit for this theme.

The only dies I used were a circle and a smaller oval die. Cut some ears and the tails for each of the cats. Next, I drew the faces on and added some googly eyes to give these kitties additional personality.



Hope this card gives you a smile for your day.

Thanks for stopping in and oh,  BTW, submit a card to the challenge, I will be looking for your project.

Thanks again
