CHRISTMAS WITH THE CUTIES DT

Hi Everyone

Today is the start of the new Christmas with the Cuties challenge and I'm so pleased and excited to have been asked to be a part of their new team! Full details of the challenge can be found here and this month's challenge is Anything Goes.  This is my card:




This is a cute Sylvia Zet image which I have coloured with copics. I have also put copper glitter on the bauble and present and glossy accents on his nose.  The papers are First Edition Christmas Wishes which have been distressed slightly.  I love these papers as 2 of them are also glittery but you can't see that on the photo.  I added some shabby green frantage to the chipboard holly (although it didn't come out very green) and there are 3 little berries there from the Ribbon Girl.

I would like to enter the following challenges:

Allsorts - Anything Christmas
Ribbon Girl - Use any image
Crafty Creations - Christmas
Brown Sugar Challenge - Anything Goes
Addicted to Stamps & More - Anything Goes

DROPPING THE SHOPPING 2

Hi Everyone

I've made a second version of this LOTV image as when my aunt saw the first one she really liked it, so I thought I'd make her one for Christmas as I couldn't really give the one she'd already seen. This one is in a different colour way which is quite nice and cool looking for Christmas cards.



I've coloured the image with copics again and cut the oval out with a Sizzix Tim Holtz die.  The flowers are Creative Expressions Sue Wilson Poinsettia Additions and the stitched banner is also a Creative Expressions one.  Love this little image as I can glitter up all the fur and there's not too much colouring to do.

I would like to enter the following challenges:

Cute Card Thursday - Christmas/Holidays
CCC Digi Creations - Bingo (Flowers, Image, Pearls)
Christmas at Sweet Stampin - Anything Goes
Fab n Funky - Digi Girls or hats
Stamping Sensations - Christmas Greetings

Thank you for visiting and I love reading your comments, they are much appreciated.

CHRISTMAS TEDS

Hi Everyone

This is another family christmas card to show you, one for my daughter and her partner this time.
The image is a Teddy Bo one, which I think is so cute!




I have coloured them with copics, distressed the edges of the papers and stitched around the bottom 2 layers.  There is one die cut snowflake which has been glittered and 2 small pearl snowflakes in the top right and the flowers have been glittered with stickles. The leaves have been cut from white glitter card and the white crispy ribbon has had little white pearls glued to it.

My cards always look better in real life than they do in photos, but then I suppose that's the case with everyone's.  

I would like to enter the following challenges:

As You Like It - Teddies or Fairies (teddies always as they are so cute and lovable - my daughter still has hers from being a baby and she's 24 now).
A Gem of a Challenge - Snowflakes
Fab n Funky - Animals
Noor Design - Winter
Fuss n Fancy - Ice/Snow
Winter Wonderland - Add Ribbon/Flowers
Live and Love Crafts - White Christmas
