Non traditional colors holiday card

Hi everyone. Merry Christmas to one and all. 

It's time for another challenge over at The House That Stamps Built. This week our challenge is the ever popular Anything Goes.



Chose to do a card that is a little non-traditional in colors for the last of the Holiday cards. Poinsettia is colored with Copic makers and fussy cut out. Then I added some foam tape to pop it up for added dimension. Framed it using some shinny black cardstock. 

There's a new challenge every week over at  The House That Stamps Built, and you don't have to use Repeat Impressions stamps to link up or win. Also, for my blog readers: Enjoy the 10% discount code to the Repeat Impressions Store posted on the sidebar.

One lucky person will win a $25 Repeat Impressions Gift Certificate on the first Wednesday of every month – Good luck!

Also, check out our Rock Star blogs to see what they did with the challenge.

Photo Inspiration challenge

Hi everyone. It's time for another challenge over at The House That Stamps Built. This week our challenge is the use the following graphic.




I went with a cream cardstock on this as I felt the photo was off white and would work better with the pine cone and pine branches. 

Pine cone is colored with Copic's and fussy cut out. The pine branches are a die from Carta Bella. Kept this very clean and simple, like the photo.

Gnome matter what

Hello -
Sharing an interactive pop up card today for the Simon Say Stamp Wednesday challenge.



Gnomes are from Stamping Bella. Colored with Copic's and cut out with my Brother Scan N Cut.

Masculine note card

Hi everyone. It's time for another challenge over at The House That Stamps Built. This week our challenge is the use the following graphic.





I chose the bottom row across. I added glitter to my green embossing powder and embossed the trees onto vellum. Then I placed some glue behind the trees so that I could attach it to a white panel and not show through. In real life the trees really sparkle.

Warmest holiday wishes

Hello. Sharing a traditional Christmas card today for the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge.


Stamps are from Stampin Up! I used cream cardstock from PTI for a change instead of the normal white.  I stamped the mittens in versafine and heat embossed in clear embossing powder so that I could color with Copic's. I used a white gel pen to highlight the stripes on the mittens and added a tiny white pearl to the center of the snowflakes.

Added the black pearls for additional interest that matched the pattern in the mittens.
