  • Hello Warm Fuzzies Trio

    Hello Warm Fuzzies Trio

    When I first saw these cuties in the newest Whit Kit – Hello Warm Fuzzies by Unity I couldn’t wait to play with them. They are just so cute! I paired them with this fun paper set called Studio Light Hello Winter Friendz Paper Pad. Of course I was inspired by the snowmen once again from Inspired By.

    I basically used only 3 of the pattern papers to create these cards. For the first one I cut some scraps of the white cardstock and layered to look like snow and added some stitching. The houses were fussy cut and the snowman is mounted on foam squares. The die on all 3 is from CTMH

    I then used a couple of the paper pieces for my second card, added some snowflakes, stitching and a bow and it was done.

    Finally with the small pieces that were left I created the final card using one of the penguins from the set. Always some stitching, snowflakes and image on foam squares.

    This cute set is available on its own or as a bundle in the Whit Kit. Of course it is on sale right now so be sure to grab it!

    Also playing along with some challenges

  • Inspired By and Guest Designer for JUGS

    Inspired By and Guest Designer for JUGS

    Happy New Year!

    It’s Thursday so that means another Inspired By Challenge. But I was also asked to be the Guest Designer on JUGS this month and I am pretty excited about that. This week I decided to combine the challenges. I was inspired by the snowmen and the sketch on Inspired By and on JUGS we were to use a cover plate die. I dug through my die collection and found a couple of neglected stitching frame dies from Stamplorations and CTMH and they were perfect. I also used the Hello die from I think MFT.

    I paired it with the cute Clip Art snowman which is part of a cute set. Check it out HERE

    I have another card for the Coffee Loving Papercrafters Blog again today and it is your last chance to link up to the Lattes & Layers Challenge

    For my card I have another cute Clip Art design, don’t you just love him? I paired it with some older Simple Stories papers

    I used up some of my scraps, topped it with a snowflake border die from Poppy Stamps and some snowflakes punched out of glitter paper before mounting the image on foam squares. The sentiment die is from Stamplorations. I did fussy cut the mug and add it to the snowman’s hand.

    Check out this cute collection of Clip Art Snowmen.

    I am up on the Coffee Loving Papercrafters Blog with yet another card for the Lattes & Layers challenge. Tomorrow is the last day to link up for your chance at being a guest designer. I used this fun clip art which is part of a great collection. For the background, I used a bunch of scraps and added a couple of snowflakes for good luck 😉

    It is hard to tell but I added some glitter to the marshmallows.

  • Hot Chocolate Time

    Hot Chocolate Time

    I had to play along once again with the theme from Inspired By, the TGIF and the Peace On Earth Challenge because I love everything about hot chocolate. I used the Sweet Holiday Wishes Collection from my ETSY shop for this one.

    Not sure if you can see it but I added some sparkle to the whip cream for the Lattes & Layers Challenge over on the CLP blog – the theme is sparkle

    This is the Sweet Holiday Wishes collection, click on image to go to my store

    And the challenges:

    I am up on the Coffee Loving Papercrafters today with another card for the Lattes & Layers challenge. The Theme this month is Sparkle

    Once again I used the Gingebread Kisses collection from Doodlebug because I couldn’t resist this cute die cut. It is hard to tell in the photo but I punched out a few of the snowflakes from glitter paper.

    Have you played along with the Sparkle challenge yet?

  • Cozy Warm Winter Wishes

    Cozy Warm Winter Wishes

    My second hot cocoa card for today, this time using some Unity stamps. I used the It’s a Mug Hug stamp set for the main image and the sentiment is from the Cozy Vibes Coffee set I used some scraps of my Carta Bella Coffee shop papers. the image is coloured with copics and mounted on foam squares. I added glitter to the whip cream for detail.

    Once again playing along with (click on photos for direct link)

  • Stay Warm, Feel Cozy

    Stay Warm, Feel Cozy

    It’s National Cocoa Day so of course I had to create a card for the occasion. Actually I am going to see how many I can create today! This is the first of 2 so far. I used the Farmhouse collection from Carta Bella, which isn’t a Christmas/Winter collection but I thought the colors worked well for it. The mug die is from MFT, the snowman stamp is from Pinkfresh Studio and the sentiment is from Unity.

    I mounted the min image on foam squares. The embossed snowflake background was a scrap just laying on my desk so I made it into a tag to mount the image on.

    This is also another card for the Lattes & Layers challenge over on the Coffee Loving Paper Crafters Blog where the theme is Sparkle. I added some sparkle to the snowman’s hat.

    Come play along, as one lucky person will get to be a guest designer!

    And of course don’t forget to play along with the Caffeinated Christmas challenge!
