The Pink Stamper challenge-Winter card


I decided to interrupt my little Wild Card challenge to participate in a card challenge hosted by The Pink Stamper. She wanted us to create a winter card...what's more wintery than a cute little snowman?? I think this quick little card turned out cute. I left the inside blank as it could be a Christmas card or a thank you for someone over the Christmas season.
Recipe:
  • olive green, red, black, orange and brown Bazzill
  • Basic Grey-Dasher line
  • white spongy furry paper...not sure of the brand name(for snowman body)
  • Stampin' Up red Grosgrain ribbon
  • green Bella Bling dots
  • black brads and black flower brads
  • stamp sentiment from Kraftin' Kimmie
  • black Momento ink
  • Stampin' Up eyelet border punch
  • EK Success border punch and corner punch(inside card)
  • Cartridges used: Doodlecharms-Snowman cut, George-rectangle and shadow I stamped the sentiment inside

Wild Card # 43

Lucky me...43...FIN-A-LLY. This one is called "Ornament" for obvious reasons. This was a really easy one. I pretty much just went with the cartridge design.I like how the paper looks on this one. You'll notice there is no Glamour dust on this one...already shiny...I did think about it.
RECIPE:
  • K & Company Christmas Glitter pack paper
  • Cardstock that looks like a brown paper bag-no idea brand
  • smal piece of silver glitter paper
  • CTMH-Cranberry ink
  • Inkadinkado Christmas greeting stamp
  • E K Success corner punch
  • white and silver edged ribbon 1/8"
  • Wild Card cartridge

She loves the cards I make, but think the old blog needs some help??
