Cozy Scottie Christmas - SOS514

 Hello Friends,

It has been a while since I posted.  We have been trying to do some remodeling and two of our Grandsons were heavy into wrestling tournaments which required traveling so we could support them.  Things have settled down a bit allowing me a little more free time.  I have been making lots of cards, I have just been posting them on Splitcoaststampers.com instead of on my blog. I miss all my blog friends though!

I was inspired today by the Shopping Our Stash challenge SOS514 - Winter Wonderland (winter landscape or white on white).  I have a city landscape and some white on white too.  

I started by stamping the Rubbernecker Window and Bench image.  I watercolored it with Daniel Smith watercolors and added in a bunch of Snowtex.  I split the image up and popped it on an embossed white background.  When searching for a sentiment, I ran across my Scottie punch and thought it would add some whimsey.  Both the sentiment and the Scottie punch are from SU!  

Hope you have all been doing well and staying cozy.

Hugz,

Nancy

    Good to see you back online Nancy. Sounds like life has been crazy, and I hope remodeling looks great. I love the colorful scene on your card. The scotty dog makes an adorable addition. It may be late, but happy 2024. hugs-Erika

Forest Goodies and Other Projects

 Hello Crafty Friends. I just got the Stamperia Forest Paper and Die Cuts in the mail so I had to play with them right away.   I have a combo creation - journal page and card.  On the journal page I used my 6x6 Dina Wakley Journal and laid a base of gesso.  I then used Dina's pastel crayons and some SU! inks and stamps.  Also added in some TH Dress Ink in Vintage Photo since I don't know how to make anything without it  (seriously).   The eagle is a Stamperia Forest die cut and is coated with gesso.  Did a bit of stenciling and distressing to finish the page off.  I am linking this the the **Art*Journal*Journey* September Texture Theme (last day - can't wait to see what October's Theme will be).  The die cut and the little smears add texture to the already very textured page.   I love the blue and green together and was inspired to made a quick card for my Son-in-law who cut down some tree limbs for us the other day....

Some Penguins

Today kicks off the newest Pattie's Creations Challenge which is Tags . Just Tags. No cards with Tags on or in them - just tags. I love to make just tags so this one was right up my alley. I used the super cute Penguin image from Pattie's Creations, but I couldn't stop at just one so I made a little penguin family. My tag is made from an old cardboard box top which I peeled down, painted, distressed a bit, and then added some snow medium. My bow is actually a new bow designed by Pamela Lehto (available at Squigglefly tomorrow). Please join us in the Pattie's Creations Tag Challenge - there are lovely DT tags for inspiration and Pattie gives away wonderful prizes! Hugz!

Bear-ied In Paperwork

 Back again, with a card for this week's House Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge ( HMFMC#424 ).  This week the challenge is Anything goes with the option of scraps of paper. I took the option literally and added scraps of paper on my kitchen counter.  I needed a thank you card for someone who has been helping us organize A LOT of papers.   I stamped the image (House Mouse Gruffies Bear-ied in Paperwork -2007) using CTMH Black, then coloring the image with Daniel Smith Watercolors.  I drew in an extra paper or two so that I could make one of them a Thank You paper - it is the top right and shaded pink.  Thanks for visiting, Nancy
