For my card, I used the Spellbinders mailbox die cut and cut out all the pieces using paper scraps. I stamped 2 different Santa postage stamps and added a real celebrate postage stamp.

The clouds were sponged on the base, then the postal box was added and a couple of dimensionals were added to the door of the postal box.

The card was finished with a few stacked snowflakes and stickles were added to the snowflakes and Nuvo Drops were added to the mailbox.

I heat embossed the Mr & Mrs in silver to match the silver on the dress. The flowers on the dress were finished with silver gems and then a few more gems were scattered around the card front.

Hip-Hip-Horray!

 

FS872 - This week's incredibly talented Featured Stamper is Pat aka contrapat. Her gallery is full of wonderful inspiration. I found this INSPIRATION.

F4A713 - Leaves

For my card, I kept the 2 large rectangles Pat had on her card and made them the same size layering them over each other. I used designer paper that had really pretty foil and leaves in it for my card.

To pick up more of the gold in the paper, I die cut more gold leaves and layered them under the sentiment along with a couple stirps of green ribbon to match the green in the DP.

I added the sentiment and doodled around the sentiment layer.

The card was finished with a few punched gold bits.

Cute Bear

 

IC933 - Lake Effect Gallery - here is my inspiration

For my card, I used this cute image and the coordinating Kit and Clowder class to color him up with pencils.

Once colored he was mounted on a white card base. I did not want to take away from the cute image so I did not add a sentiment.

Christmas Bus

 

WT971 - International Walk to School Month - how did you get to school when you were young? Bus/Car/Bike/Walk? (I actually walked and took a bus, depending on the year of school).

I decided to do my bus cards. Every year my sister asks me for school bus Christmas cards as she is a bus mechanic. This year's cards feature a deer driving the school bus colored with copics. She had me make 12 cards this year

I finally have purchased a Pike stamp so next year's cards I won't have to write out the school on the license plate. Now to not lose the small stamp. LOL!
