It's 5 O'clock Somewhere

When I saw the theme at the Simon Says Stamp Challenge was Let's Be On Time, I started thinking about what sentiments in my stash talked about time.

I started with three clock stickers from three different sticker collections from {a vintage girl} & her daughter - Steampunk, Gold Steampunk and Wild West.  Remember using my discount code SMILYNSTEF gets you 15% off your sticker purchase.

 

 

The paper I used is from Stamperia Atelier Collection, because I thought the vintage feel of the paper design worked well with my clock collection.  The layout is from this week's Hand Stamped Sentiments. 

 

I finished with a pint glass of beer and sentiments from Cathy Zielske's Happy Hour Stamp Set for Simon Says Stamp.  It looks perfect paired with a local Italian-Style Pilsner.

 

I'm Dreaming of a PINK Christmas

It's our annual go-PINK-for-Christmas prompt at Jingle Belles, where Lauren & I both donate $2 per card to Breast Cancer Research Foundation.

 

 

I've been saving this gorgeous Stamperia Pink Christmas paper for this week's prompt ... with those beautiful designs, the card almost makes itself.

 

I used two of the paper for the base with this week's Sketch Saturday.  The wonderful Pink Santa image is also from the paper pad.  I finished with snowflake embellishments topped with glittery enamel dots.

 

 

 

I'm also linking-up at the Time Out Challenge where theme is also Breast Cancer Awareness.

 

Got Snow?

We're still creating cards that feature SNOW this week at Jingle Belles.

This week I added some gorgeous new papers from The Funkie Junkie by a Hungarian company Stamperia ... this gorgeous collection is called Arctic Antarctic.  

 

I love the majesty of the white wolf in his snowy landscape home.  I paired one of the background papers from the collection with one of my tags from my Dina Wakley Focus on Gloss Class, that brought out the greens in the Northern Lights Sky. 

I finished with a vintage wood mounted sentiment from A Muse and some blue gems."
