With Sympathy

 

SC885 - This week's sketch

For my card base I used a dotted die cut with paw prints. I then cut the layers and rather than the circle I used a heart. I also turned the card layout.

Once the pieces were layered, I added Nuvo Drops to the black parts of the heart and paw print.

Merry Christmas Poinsettia

 

CC875 - This weeks colors

I die cut the card base then the additional layers were cut with a gold mirror paper.

Next I stamped the flowers and leaves and sponged colors and shaped them. They were then layered and finished with prills and stickles.

CCC21DEC - Anything Goes

I have a few neighbors that I hand deliver Christmas cards and those are my favorite to give because I can add large embellishments to get them out of my tote of items. This snowman was also in my stack of images needing colored and used up.

I colored the snowman, used some snow paper to back the image and layered. I finished off the card with this holly embellishment from my tote of items I am trying to use up.

CAS669 - Merry and Bright - anything that fits w/ the theme, does not have to be Christmas

I stamped this cute DRS Designs sweater a few times and added the different coordinating stamps to the sweaters. I colored with copics and added the center sentiment.

'Tis the Season

 

FS776 - This week's amazingly talented Featured Stamper is Jo Ann, better known as Jo Ann F. I found this wonderful IC553 - B&W Wreath 2 by Jo Ann F. at Splitcoaststampers.

I was drawn to the white heat embossed on black card stock on Jo Ann's card.

I heat embossed the sentiment and image on my card in white on black card stock. I then die cut the layers and embossed the pink with a sweater emboss folder and popped the panel up on dimensionals.

A Couple of Pet Cards

 

DEC21VSNN - Music/dancing

This fun singing pet image always cracks me up.

I colored the image with copics and cut the paper layers. Added a thank you banner and finished with some ribbon.

DEC21VSNF - Lassie (add a dog to your cards)

I love using these wonderful dog images from a book of dog images. They make really quick cards because they are already colored. I cut these out, added some DPs and die cut the sentiments.

I bought this great die cut set from Pink and Main last year and had hoped to get a card made for this year's cards but alas I did not get a chance to use it. This is perfect for the Mr. Rogers Neighborhood challenge and a great card to start on next year's stash.

I cut all the pieces and assembled the card. I added some stickles to the roof top of the homes and added some color to the snowman using copics.
