The new Chalenge at Shopping Our Stash is - Time for Presents. We're asking you to feature Presents on your card or make a Thank You Card for gifts you've received.
I chose the presents from Pinkfresh Studio's Holiday Elements Washi Tape. To me, those gifts aren't only for the holidays.
I combined three of the gift clusters with Pinkfresh Studio Foiled Sentiment. I finished with their gorgeous Champagne Glitter Drops.
The December Challenge at Memory Box is all about Bows!
There's only one problem ... I don't have any bow stamps or dies in my Memory Box Collection, so I had to pull out some twine for my tiny bow accent.
I decided to use the colors from this week's Global Design Project (the time said I had time to link-up, but it was already closed) and found a candy heart embossed panel in my scraps that worked perfectly. I used a Gel Press Print & Cardstock for the Bermuda Bay and added Memory Box Heart Connection & Memory Box Little Sketch Heart in Blushing Bride. The Sentiments are from Memory Box Big and Little Valentines.
The Sketch is from Try Stampin' (or Not) on Tuesday.
The December Monthly Mix Challenge at Gina K. Designs is - Let It Snow.
I stamped all of the snowflakes from Gina K. Designs Blizzard stamp set in Medium Lilac Ink on lilac cardstock using my MISTI and then trimmed it into a slimline card.
I added some enamel dots in the centers of some of the larger snowflakes and then finished with a sentiment from Gina K. Designs Holiday Wreath Builder stamped on an ink-blended panel in my scrap stash in Dark Lilac Ink.
I'm also linking-up at the Simon Says Stamp Ice Cold Challenge.
Another fun week of blogland shenanigans:
Have a tremendous Thursday!
The final challenge for Day 12 of the 12 Tags of Christmas at Ellen Hutson is - Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer with the fabulous Ellen herself.
I used my never-been-inked Reindeer from Catherine Pooler Dasher and added red nose to turn him into Rudolph. He was so easy to color with my Graph'IT Markers.
I embossed my Tag with the Sizzix 3-D Textured Impressions Winter Snowflakes Embossing folder and a sentiment from Catherine Pooler Merriest Sentiments.
I added my tag to a watercolored card base for the Let's Squash It! Challenge with snowflakes on my tags and Stars decorating Rudolph's Antlers (colored with an awesome silver glitter pen),
Day 11 of the 12 Tags of Christmas at Ellen Hutson is - Jingle Belles with Carly Miner.
I die cut my Jingle Bell from Silver Mirror cardstock with a bow made from Lawn Fawn Pink Lemonade Trimmings.
I paired it with a fun snarky sentiment from Sassy Christmas Peace on Earth.
I'm also linking-up at the Tag It! Challenge at Simon Says Challenge.
Day 10 of the 12 Tags of Christmas at Ellen Hutson is - Frosty the Snowman with Amy Tsuruta.
I started with the Poppystamps Whittle Friendly Snowman and dressed him with a black glitter top had and plaid scarf using Memory Box Dashing Holiday designer paper. I added some Doodlebug Eye See You Shape Sprinkles.
I used a vintage A Muse sentiment stamp to finish the design.
I'm also linking-up at the Poppystamps Gift it! Challenge with my cute little gift tag.
I used the pretty plaid Memory Box Paper to turn this tag into a card that I'm linking-up at The Holly and Ivy Anything Christmas Challenge.
Day 8 of the 12 Tags of Christmas at Ellen Hutson is - Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer with Daniel West.
I started with the fun little Animal Reindeer Box Topper from Essentials by Ellen with some googly eyes attached with foam on an Essentials by Ellen Farmhouse Tag cut from Tim Holtz holiday plaid paper.
Clearly if this reindeer ran over Grandma, he's now on the naughty list, so I added a stamped Naughty sentiment from Taylored Expressions Spoiler Alert. I added wraps of jute twine in a bow.
My naughty reindeer is also linking-up at the N is for Naughty or Nice Challenge at Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers.
I attached my naughty reindeer to a card based embossed with the Tim Holtz Texture Fades Holiday Knit #2 folder, so I'm also joining the Can You Handle The Pressure? Embossing Challenge with an optional twist of Christmas.
Day 8 of the 12 Tags of Christmas at Ellen Hutson is - I'll Be Home for Christmas with Tiffany Pryce Russom.
I decided to combine it with the December Taylored Expressions #TEMakerChallenge of Tag You're It with Cilantro & Cherry Pop Inks.
I stamped the Taylored Expressions Winter Village Background in Cilantro on a light blue tag base. I added Santa & his Reindeer in Cherry Pop Red in the sky.
I added a snow storm with Dylusions Inkssentials White Linen Spray.
I finished with a sentiment from Taylored Expressions Simple Strips Christmas and some velvet ribbon.
Day 7 of Ellen Hutson's 12 Tags of Christmas is - (It Must Have Been Ol') Santa Claus with Heather Meeson)
I loved Heather's Ho Ho Ho Shaker Tag, which is also perfect for the Shake It Up Challenge at Stay Crafty with a Blog Named Hero.
I used Spellbinders Die-Lites Jolly Ho Ho Ho with Concord & 9th Tutu Glitter paper.
True with the song lyrics, I added the Santa from Hero Arts Merry Christmas Santa & Reindeer. I filled my shaker with sequins and finished with a bright blue ribbon to coordinate.
I'm also linking-up at the Simon Says: Add Sparkle Challenge.
I also made a tic tac toe across the center for the Papercraft Crew Tic Tac Toe Challenge with Circles (from my O's), Die Cuts & Ribbon.
