Combo challenge for todays post, PPA 226 and Mojo Monday 370

If you've been watching my blog, you know I had hip replacement surgery on Oct 28th. Yesterday was the first day I felt I could sit at my desk and make a card, since I missed monday and I loved the sketch for Mojo Monday, and I needed a card for the PPA challenge and that one is colors, I decided to combine them.   I have never done that before, I really enjoy making each and every card all on it's own.

Colors for the PPA 226 are Mossy Meadow, Cajun Craze, and Soft Suede.
This is the Mojo monday sketch:

I started with the new Mossy Meadow incolor for my card base, then used white with a cover of Patterned paper from the Regals DSP Stack.

I used my little wave blade on the stamped and Inked piece, then stamped the banner and cut using the Banner Framelits.

10 Days of Christmas, Day 10, Tags

I thought for our last day, we would do a few little tags. Tags are great fun, invite a friend or two to sit and make tags for those boxes, bags and edible treats you hand out.

I used pieces of the Under The Tree DSP paper for two of these. This CS is meant for boxes, it's really stiff and it's gorgeous. I predict we will be seeing more of this as we have gone wild with ideas for it.  It makes super tags and even cards.  There is a color design on one side, (see the darker brown) and a kraft look with very light design on the other.

I cut the moose from a piece of the Santa and Co. DSP. Some fun stuff there.  And used my tree punch on another piece.

Hope you sit down and have fun with your tags.

10 Days of Christmas 2014, day 9 A Very Merry

Today I have done my card 2 different ways.   I like them both, and they are easy and fun to do.
For the bottom card I embossed the Pool Party CS, then brayered some white from my white craft ink pad over just the embossed design.     I added some blotches  of snow using the small stamp from Gorgeous Grunge, and added a few snowflakes from the Frosted Sequins set.

I stamped the very merry sentiment in Island Indigo ink.

The top card was done by brayering the recessed side of the embossing folder so that the design popped up in white.  I stamped the sentiment in Lost Lagoon and punched out.

Thanks for coming by, sure hope you are enjoying my designs.

10 Days of Christmas 2014, Day 5 JOY

Welcome to day 5 of my 10 Days of Christmas.   I have to say, I LOVE this card!  The Blackberry Bliss is my favorite of the new colors this year, and here I combined it with gold and silver embossing on the wreath.  I know it's hard to see it very well, but it is so gorgeous in person.  The JOY on here is in the framelit set that matches the stamp set.  There is also a Noel.
I used rhinestones, one on each of the flowers. So simple, but so beautiful.
