Christmas Kickstart #107 and NBUS #83

I had several ways to go with a card for Christmas Kickstart - Sing-a-Long, a fun theme picked by my friend and teammate Carol Mayne.  I decided on The Snow Notes from Spellbinders.


After making a card with these delightful snowmen at Michele's last summer, I had to have a set of my own.  All the 'accessories' are cut from scraps. The background is Snowfall Shimmer press plate, inked with Hero Arts Unicorn White on light blue cardstock.  The words are from the Snow Notes set and the music notes are from Penny Black's Sing for Joy.  I can't wait to make more of these fun choristers. 

Since this is the first time using my own set of Snow Notes and the first outing of the press plate, I'm sending my card to Darnell's NBUS. 

Thanks for dropping by and spending a bit of your day with me.

My Crafty Adventure 2.0

After Marcia departed our crafty adventure, I stayed overnight and Michele and I made more cards or parts of cards the next morning.  Today we're showing them off.

First up is Festive Friends from Spellbinders.  This darling bear has had my heart for a while and I couldn't wait to dress her up.


Her cute sweater is from one of Michele's paper packs, the background is embossed with Waffle Flower's Dashed Snowflake, and the gold sentiment (that matches the gold string on the lights) is from Michele's stash.

One of Michele's new sets is Cherry Nice from Concord and 9th - a stamp, die and embossing folder bundle.


The cherries were cut from red and green scraps, inking sections to add shading.  The embossed panel was trimmed to show off the plaid border.  

Up next is Snow Notes from Spellbinders.  You may have seen some of the wonderful cards  Michele made with this set.


The background is a coverplate from Concord and 9th and the sentiment is from Ellen Hutson.  They look like they're really enjoying themselves.

Last but not least is a delightful image from Penny Black called Heartsong.


It was stamped on watercolor paper and colored with Distress Ink.  Their Classy Frames were stacked three high and the sentiment from the set added to the side.  

It's not surprising what cards you can accomplish when you have friends to inspire you - and lend you their products. Thanks again, Michele, for having me.  You are such a blessing in my life.
