ABC Christmas Challlenge U V and Stencil Fun Challenge 11/2024

I found some already stenciled ornaments in the package and created a card with them.  This one fits the bill at ABC Christmas - U for unusual Christmas colors - and also at Stencil Fun Challenge.

Pinkfresh Studio Dotted Fancy Frames, hot foiled Ornaments and Basic Banner Sentiments make up most of the card.  Altenew Frayed Leaf to ink the border, Richard Garay Pine Needles embossing folder and TH Holiday Greens make up the rest.  

I need to count but I think I'm close to the number of Christmas cards I need.  How about you?

The Flower Challenge #97 - Thanks

It's the month of Thanksgiving

so the theme for The Flower Challenge is: 

I went back to my earlier style of card making

with a Clean and Simple card.

The Lovely Camellias from Altenew were embossed and then colored with a stencil using Altenew inks. I thought it needed a little splatter and then added the die cut sentiment from the same stamp set. 

We'd love to see your Thank You cards featuring flowers in our gallery.  For inspiration you only have to look at the cards by the fabulous Design Team.

Freshly Made Sketches #660

I was working on some Christmas cards and thought maybe one would fit the challenge at Freshly Made Sketches.  It's not quite true to the sketch but I'm hoping it's close enough.  

The stamp set is from Memory Box and  colored with Altenew Artist Markers. It's added to a panel embossed with the SSS Graceful Holly folder.  

While I was stamping, I made another one using a different medium.

This is a one layer card, stamped on Bristol and colored with Zigs.  This one has the image stamped in the correct orientation.  I flipped it on the first card to make it more like the sketch. 

Thanks for dropping by.  Have a great weekend!

Just Us Girls #751 - CASE the Designer

Five Thursdays in October brings us to another CASE the Designer challenge at Just Us Girls.

There is a wide variety of cards for you to choose from among the Design Team makes.  Here's mine.

The Tim Holtz Skeleton Leaves were cut in white and colored in a variety of Distress Inks to give an Autumn vibe.  The background is PTI Fine Linen embossed with the Subtle folder and an Altenew label cut in rust was stamped with a Jillian Vance sentiment. 

We hope to see your card in our gallery.
