Creative Knockouts #483 - 'Tis the Season

Hello crafty friends!

Wowsers!  How is Christmas only 10 days away?  Is it just me, or are you also ready to move on from Holiday Cards and bring on allll the Valentines? hehe  I can't wait!

It's time for a new challenge over at Creative Knockouts Challenge #483. 

Our theme this week is "Anything Goes” and our sponsor is the amazing “The Paper Shelter”. What I love about them is that their images can be downloaded and used immediately - no coloring required!  Perfect for quick cards.

I chose to work with a stamp set called "Fa-La-La". It's a super adorable group of carolers!

Here is what I created:

Super cute and super simple! 

I hope you enjoy this card!  Merry Christmas everyone! I hope you have an amazing and creative holiday season.

Can't wait to see what you all create!  Good luck at the challenge!

Creative Knockouts #481 - Winter Wonderland

Hello crafty friends!

Let is snow, let it snow, let it snow! It's been a snowy week here on the prairies (well duh, it is December now! haha). I've been in full on Christmas Card mode this month....and today's card is super adorable!

It's time for a new challenge over at Creative Knockouts Challenge #480. 

Our theme this week is "Anything Goes” and our sponsor is the amazing “Lee Holland”. I chose to work with a stamp set called "Dragon Pulling Sledge".

Here is what I created:

I picked up some brand new metallic watercolors, so I decided to use them on my card this week. I did a spray with a White Gloss Spray - it added a subtle effect.

 

 

To emulate some snow, I used a bit of crackle paste.

My sentiment is from Tim Holtz.

I hope you enjoy this card!  I'm having fun trying different techniques.

Can't wait to see what you all create!  Good luck at the challenge!
