Christmas Card Challenge - Day 27

Day 27.  I can't believe the month is almost over... and so will be the Christmas Card Challenge.  3 more cards after today.

Today's prompt at Scrappin'-n-Chattin' was Coloring.  I don't do that very often.  Today I used a rubber stamp, instead of a digital image.

To create my card I used the current sketch at The Sweet Shop.  I thought it was perfect for what I had in mind.


And here's the result....


I am also entering this card into the following challenges:

Sentimental Sundays - Sewing or Faux Stitching  (Faux stitching around the image and its mat)
Craft Your Passion Challenges - Emboss It  (Dry embossed black cardstock strips)
Whoopsiedaisy Challenge - 2 Patterned Papers

Thanks for looking.

Christmas Card Challenge - Day 18

Wow....  It's August 18th.  The 18th day of the Christmas card challenge.  The prompt today at Scrappin'-n-Chattin' was Sweets.  I'm sure I have several items that would have qualified for this challenge, but I used a border that I have had for a very long time.

I used a sketch for my card tonight.  I used the new sketch at The Sweet Stop.  There was also and extra challenge with the sketch - to use Die Cuts or Punches.


The Christmas cookie border and sentiment tag are actually cardstock die cuts.  But I also use used a border punch on the red and white cardstock I matted the border strip with.


I am also entering my card into the challenge at Allsorts.  The challenge is called Heavy Metal and it's to include metal on your project.  I used a silver, metal brad to secure the sentiment tag to the card.

Thanks for looking...
