Some Fun Christmas Cards

It is time for some Christmas cards - I am so glad I got a few more of them done.

They are encouraging Christmas cards at Going Grey (Scrap-Creations) Challenge(GGSC122), Angels or Fantasy at Southern Girls #49, and Anything Goes at Jackson's Digital Expressions #14 (they are sponsored by Bugaboo but Robert Jackson has to pretty awesome images). So my first card is for Going Grey, my second for Southern Girls and my last for Jackson's Digital Expressions.

I used a LilyPink Designs image available at Can You Digi It? Isn't it pretty? The paper is gcd Parisan Nights (some of fav paper in the world).

I recently won some Bugaboo imagesa and I love them - aren't these angels sweet?
Another totally adorable image from Bugaboo. Love these things!

I do believe I am getting the Christmas Spirit already!

Hugz to all!

    You've been busy! The french themed card is fabulous - great colour combo. Adorable second card and totally cute sentiment on the last one.

    Great cards, Nancy! I must say I adore the last one...reminds me of my munchkins. Your first card is fabulous with that sentiment and the angels are adorable on the next one.

    Wow! YOu're getting in a whole lot more craft time than me lately! LOL I love those sweet angels in the second card, the Paris scene on the first, and the fun holiday colors on the third. :)

    I have bronchitis, so for the most part have been laid up. Today I felt well enough to sit and comment a bit, but the couch is calling me again! At least I'm catching up with a good book. (John Steinbeck's East of Eden)

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.  The paper in the middle is from the Stamperia Forest

A Martini, Peanut Butter Cupakes, and Art

Hello Friends. Today, I have an ecletic mix of drinks, dessert, and art. First, it's T-day somewhere in the world so time for a drink post which I am linking to Elizabeth's Blog - Altered Book Lover.  Last week we had a work related dinner.  When the waitress asked what I wanted to drink, I had a sudden craving for a martini.  I use to love them, but I guess my tastes have changed because I wasn't a fan.  I was a fan of the chips and dips though! And the day before, I brought my Sister's fabulous peanut butter cupcakes.  Mainly because I was craving them and couldn't ask her to make just one..... Over at **Art*Journal*Journey* Elle picked a theme of Books, Cats, and Tea (you can pick one, two or three of the items).  I did a Bible Journal Page in my Journaling Bible - Luke 13:24-25.  After a layer of Gesso, I took a Sharpie pen and drew the kitty, then the narrow door, and then colored the door with Arteza Brush pens. The verse was written with a Micron pen.  This

The Snuggle or Struggle is Real

Hello friends, Isn't this new House Mouse Image the cutest?  I am so glad that Spellbinders has partnered with House Mouse and brought in new images.  I was inspired to add birch trees and snow after seeing THIS  pretty card.  The snow is done with Snowtex which is one of my favorite winter mediums, and I painted the birch trees with black acrylic paint mixed with water and painted with an old credit card.  Everything else was painted with Daniel Smith watercolors. This is being entered in the HMFMC#402 which is Anything Goes with an option of rainbow.  While you might not think of a rainbow when you see this card, I actually used a lot of colors in the painting: yellows, browns, pinks, reds, and blues.  Some are not obvious because they are mixed with other colors or a very light.   Thanks for dropping by.  I have been a little under the weather lately, but I am feeling much better.   Hugz, Nancy
