Let it snow!

I was blurfing the other day and found a fabulous blog Sunny Stampin' Inc with the cutest snowman card.  I loved it so much I had to CASE it with my own little details.

  The snowman card was such a pain to make that I decided to just stick him on a regular card.

Birthday's should SPARKLE!!

This week's Farm Fresh challenge is to create a birthday card that sparkles!!  I thought it might be neat to make a birthday card using Edward as he just sparkles.  Edward is from the Roll call collection.  This is the first time I ever used a bingo card.

Have you ever made a card by accident?  I seem to do it a lot.  This card started last year as the pink base and white top.  I couldn't get my mojo going for it so I put it in a stash of other unfinished cards.  The other day I pulled the card out and started fitting scraps on it and here is the result.  I've been dieing to use the pine border on a card!

I used Toque Leah  from Whimsie Doodles to make this card. Copics

Warm Wishes

Here it is a rainy day and I"m showing winter mittens.  Ha!  This card was made using Christmas Greetings digi set from Whimsie Doodles.  Did you ever put a combination of colours and patterns and just love it? Well that's what happened with this card.  I could make cards all day with this combination only the paper ran out and my LSS didn't carry it.  I hate that!

 For this card I used the Tim Holtz Sizzix die Styled Labels to make black and cream polka dot band.
The greetings fit perfectly in a 2" circle punch.

Or use hemp, on your card that is.  Cause it's that time of the week for a Farm Fresh challenge. You might win a free stamp just for playing along.  This week's prize is Beanie Anya. And she's a cutie!

I used hemp (my new favorite ribbon replacement) for this week's challenge.

Here's Jade from the Roll Call collection.  Isn't she the best???  She's my favorite!  I put glitter on her eyeshadow but it didn't show up in the photo.

Let it snow, oh nooooo!

Believe it or not it snowed yesterday!!  Ugh!! Atleast it wasn't cold enough to stay around.  I don't want to think about snow right now so this will be another short post.  Here's a card I made just this morning.  It's another of my "happy little accidents" as this card was created by accident.  I was moving some scrap pieces around and this is what I ended up with.

 

I have a clear envelope of punched snowflakes that I keep on hand, you never know when they might come in handy!! 

Here's a little snippet for tomorrow's blog hop. Stop by and see what's new with Whimsie Doodles!
