Cute mice not taking life seriously...

I hope that everybody had a great Christmas! We finally finished our celebrations today! Now back to making cards! I bought myself some House Mouse stamps for Christmas! This is a stamp that I have been wanting, it is so cute! I created this card for the Midnight Madness Sketch #33. I used cork paper and sheer ribbon and the lips are Dress it Up.

Last Christmas Card:(

This will probably be my last Christmas card post for this year. I still have to make some cards for my co-workers and I want to make a gift card set for my boss. I am running out of time! I created this card for 4 Challenges.

A very bright Christmas card!

I created this card for the Play Date Cafe Challenge #8. The colors that you are supposed to use are hot pink, lime green and red. These are pretty hard colors to put together!

I also punched green leaves and added pink flowers and with gems in the middles. I used the fun sketch at Inspirational Card Sketches #46. Thanks for stopping by!

I also created it for the Stampin' for the Weekend Challenge #28-Blue and Brown. I stamped the church image with brown Stazon on a glossy panel and colored it with Copic markers. I then added Dazzling Diamonds. The vellum is SEI added with snowflake eyelets. All stamps are StampinUp. Thanks for stopping by!

More embossing...

I guess that I am on an embossing kick! It just seems to go with the Holidays, though! I created this card for the Midnight Madness Sketch #31. They have an awesome Christmas Blog Hop going on, you ought to go check it out! All stamps that I used for this card are StampinUp. I embossed the background trees in white. I stamped the tree and saying in blue craft ink and then sprinkled Stardust embossing powder for sparkle. The silver and blue star paper are specialty papers from my stash. Thanks for stopping by!

Two Turtle Doves...

I created this card for 3 challenges. I found a new challenge called the Play Date Cafe Challenge #7-Green, Deep Red and White. The Our Creative Corner Challenge was to use one of the 12 days of Christmas. I used the sketch from Mojo Monday #115.

The stamp that I used is Gel-a-Tin. I embossed the tree with Zing green embossing powder. I embossed the birds with detail white. I ran the green panel through the Cuttlebug and used the Spellbinder for the white around the tree. I printed the saying from the computer. I added the Christmas flowers by Hero Arts.

I am going to go ahead and put this card into the DT tryout for Stampin' for the Weekend. You are supposed to make a card to show your style. That is so hard because I like to try many different things! I do love to emboss and I love simple, elegant cards. But I also like to color with my Copic markers, I love flowers, House Mouse stamps, I like to try vintage cards... I am done stressing about it. This one is going to be my entry!
