Day 10 of the 12 Days of Creepmas

Good Morning!  Welcome to Day 10.  Can you believe it's less than a week 'til Christmas?  Where did this year go?  Man, it seems to older I get, the faster time flies...And I wan't having fun the whole time..LOL.

Today's card features an image from Jade Draggone.  I think she's kinda cute in a twisted way.  She was intentionally designed for Halloween, but just as most of the images I have used along this hop, I made her into a Creepmas image.

I printed off my image onto Neenah Solar White card stock and colored with Crayolas and OMS.  After trimming down the image and inking her with Memento Lady Bug ink, I matted her onto a piece of Red card stock from Recollections. The card base is GP card stock.  The sentiment is from my computer and the papers are from MME.  I added two little candy canes from Jolie's to finish off the card.

Thank so much for all the great comments y'all have left me so far along this hop.  It still always surprises me when I log onto my blog and see that I have so many.  I hope y'all will continue along the blog roll that is listed on the right side of this post.  I will be back on Saturday with another card.  Have a great day!

Day 6 of the 12 Days of Creepmas

Hello there!  I hope y'all are having a great time during this wonderful blog hop.  I sure hope y'all are going through all the blogs so that you don't miss any of the wonderful projects being created for your viewing pleasure.

Terra has all the deets on her blog and you can find the entire blog roll on the right side of this post.

For today's project, I have created another card using an image from Anji's Antics.

You always see this sentiment on Christmas cards and it seems that everyone sends this type of card. Well, I had to creep it up a bit.  My house is decorated with reds and greens and ready for Christmas even if it is a bit creepy.  It's been cold here in NE PA so the pumpkin on the porch has stayed nice a fresh.  LOL.  I used some papers from MME to make this card and used a card base made from SU Crumb Cake.

Thanks so much for stopping by today.  I have say that I have been really enjoying reading the comments that you guys have been leaving.  Keep them coming.  I value every one that I get and it makes me feel special that y'all have taken time out of your day to come see my blog.  Have a wonderful day and God bless.

From the Heart Progressive Image Challenge

Good Morning.  Thank you for stopping by little area of blog land.  I appreciate the time you take to stop and see what I have been creating.

The card I have for y'all today uses an image by Faith at From the Heart.  You have your choice this month of what image you would like to use.  If you played along with the challenge in November, you should have received an email enabling you to pick which image you wanted.  If you didn't play along, you can go the From the Heart store and if you buy $10 worth of products, you can receive it for free.  The two images you have to choose from are:
                              

Aren't they cute?  The first one is Candy Cane Anneke and the second one is  For the Birds.

I chose Anneke and this is the card I created:

I decided to color her dress and hat green so that it wouldn't overpower the candy cane.  I used my Crayola colored pencils and OMS to color Anneka.  The patterned papers are from MME.  I used a Tim Holtz die to cut out three rolled ribbon flowers using pieces of the same patterned paper and a piece of the Red Recollections card stock also used on the card.  I added some leaves from my stash and a cute little bauble charm from Prima.  I added some Evergreen Stickles to the center of the roses.  All of the fur parts of Anneke's hat, dress and boots were done with Deco Art's Glistening Snow Writer.  Mine has gotten a bit thick and will no longer come out of the tip so I used a tooth pick to place it where I wanted it.  It's not quite as dimensional as I would like it, but it gives the fur quite a bit of sparkle.

I hope y'all will give From the Heart's December challenge a try.  Everyone is a winner if they play along Faith's monthly progressive challenge.

Challenge I am entering this card in:
Shopping Our Stash--Holiday/Winter
Through the Craft Room Door--anything goes
Penny's Challenges--Tic Tac Toe (I used the bottom row)

Super Saturday with Paper A La Mode

Good morning, friends.  Today is Saturday and that means the start of a new challenge over at Paper A La Mode.  Last week's challenge brought in some beautiful cards.  Thank you to all the ladies who participated.

This week, our challenge is "Last Minute Christmas Cards".  We all need those, right.  So, of course, I waited until the last minute to make mine.  Like that is a shocker, right?

I want to apologize for the glare on the sentiment.  I tried four different times to photograph it without the glare, but it just didn't work.  The sentiment actually says, "Warm Christmas Wishes".  I found these cute little woodland, felt creatures at Hobby Lobby during their fall sale for $1.  There were two racoons and two foxes in the package and I just couldn't resist them.  I didn't know what I was going to do with them, but I had to have them.  I decided they would make a cute Christmas card for my cousin who loves the woods and hunting. Not that he hunts fox and racoon, mind ya.

The background papers are from MME Christmas pack from last year.  I used a white Coordinations card stock for the base and the red strip is Recollections card stock.  I used Lacey Circles from Spellbinders to create the circle out of Green Recollections card stock.

It was a quick, last minute card, so it fits the challenge wonderfully.  I hope that maybe y'all will find your way to Paper A La Mode an show us what you can create at the last minute.  Have a wonderful Saturday and God bless.

Saturdays with Paper A La Mode

Good morning.  Welcome to my blog on this beautiful Saturday morning.  Today starts a new challenge over at Paper A La Mode.  Our sponsor for this challenge is Rick St. Dennis.  We are so super excited to have him as our sponsor.  Rick's artwork is amazing.  

For my card, I used this cute Santa and Mrs. Claus image:

I used my trusty ole Crayola's and Sakura Glitter pens to add some sparkle.  I pulled out one of my MME paper pads from last year for the patterned paper. The card stock is Recollections. The holly and berry embellishments are from K & Co.

I have been working hard trying to get some sponsors for our little group on the Outlawz and have succeeded a bit.  Each month our sponsor prizes will be awarded.  So, if you enter this challenge, at the end of November our winners will be picked and the prizes awarded at the beginning of December.  You should come join us, you could win 2 of Rick's images.

Thanks for stopping by this morning.  I hope y'all have a great weekend.
