Winter Christmas

Today's challenge is an explosion on SCS.

I did an explosion of snow in the BG for my sparkly tree from Green Duck. I am still trying to get my Christmas cards done for this year and this was a fast one I could create to send.

Embossed the snowy BG on the top panel, stamped the sentiment on the bottom panel and added a strip of the blue from the card base to separate the two panels. Stamped the sentiment and filled in the stars with stickles to mirror the sparkle on the tree.

These darling images are from Green Duck Sales. They have a great fan club program that you can check out:  www.diecutclub.com  or you can follow them at www.facebook.com/DieCutClub.

M&M Treat Bags

I used the long treat bags and filled them with red and green M&Ms. Then I used these darling Green Duck embellishments. I punched some red and green scraps (love using scraps) with a scalloped circle punch. Attached them to the tops of the treat bags.

I made these for my little guy to take to school for his lunch buddies because he asked me for a snack he could share with his lunch buddies for a holiday treat exchange. I hope they like the snack.

Catgratulations

Today's Featured Stamper on SCS has such a wonderful gallery and I just had to do a card to honor her. I loved a sweet card made by a child in her life with a hand drawn cat.

Sunny Susie

I am honored again this week to hostess the weekly Ways to Use It challenge. It worked great to combine this challenge with the Featured Stamper and Teapot Tuesday challenges.

This is Sunny Susie the dancing sunflower girl. She lives in her field with her 10,000 sisters. They dance in the breeze when no one is watching but Sunny Susie dreams of showing humans how all the sunflowers dance. She practices every night and in to the early morning hours and really loves to dance. She thinks to herself one day she will get on a stage and show the world her dance moves. Until that day comes she continues to practice. So if ever you are driving by a field of sunflowers look out and keep watch you might see Sunny Susie sneaking in a few practice moves.

This great image is from Tiddly Inks. I printed her off and colored her with copics. I used this wonderful card here for inspiration for this weeks FS Jan. Seeing Jan’s sunflower I just knew this image was perfect for my challenge and for the teapot challenge this week too. She is named after Teapot Tuesday challenge hostess Susie Australia. And I just had to give her a story because Miss Susie has the best stories on her cards.

Copics: Y11, Y13, Y15, YG11, YG13, YG17, E00, E11, E29, E31, E35, E39, R20 & R37
