Holiday Fun

The latest challenge at Paper Smooches is "Christmas in July." I used one of their sweet free digi to create a Swedish Ornament. To hang on the pine branches on scrapbook paper. Doesn't the little chirper look like he wants to break out in song? So cute!

The current challenge at Power Poppy is called "Inspire Me," and involved CASEing a card made by one of the DTs. I loved this dreamcatcher card created by Allison Cope. For my card I used a Spellbinder medallion die, and, since I'm a guest designer for Beccy's Place right now, I just had to use one of Beccy's digi sets named "Feather Set."  (beccysplace.com)

I've had this wonderful stamp named "Party Group" from Art Impressions for some time. I love that it features some of my favorite AI Oldies including Eunice (spinning), Cliff (hat on fire) and Burnadette (holding a mound of fire!)

The Monday Challenge at wecraftcards is to make a Double Point Fold Card. This was a new fold for me and was pretty easy to make. A sweet digi named "Coconut" from The Paper Shelter is the focal point of the card. And the inside sentiment is from a Beccy's Place digi set named "True Beauty"  (beccysplace.blogspot.com) The fun paint chip type paper is from a summer themed paper pack and the tutorial for the fold can be found here- youtube.com/watch?v=-VY1qv4q4xo
