Winter Stanley

I always plan a special card to enter into the monthly Rudolph Challenge. This month I picked Stanley in his winter garb, from Beccy’s Place.  (I have five of the eleven Stanley sets in my collection… with my eye on a few additional sets in the near future. He is such a fun character!) I used two of the sentiments from the digi set, plus added a computer-generated Merry Christmas with an additional bit of hand-written script.

I’m also entering this card into the We Craft Cards Monday Challenge named Blue Christmas (As required, I used all the colors in the song- blue, white, red and green.)

 

 Supplies: 

·   Digi- Beccy’s Place (Winter Stanley)

·   Colored with Spectrum Noir alcohol markers and Sakura Gelly Roll white gel pen

·   “Beary” Sentiments- Beccy’s Place (Winter Stanley)

·   Inside Sentiment- “Merry Christmas” (Computer Generated)

·   Assorted background papers from my stash

·   Mini snowflake is a thin plastic shaker-card filler from my stash

I wanted to make a card for the current Outlawz Monday Challenge “For Him” and opted to make an unusual card. Used a sweet little VW Van die and a scrap of funky floral-patterned paper to turn it into a vintage Hippie van. A handmade action wobble spring (instructions found on Pinterest) adds a bit of fun as the van also dances (ummm... I mean vibrates!)

 

Supplies: 

·   VW van die- Flora & Fauna (find it Here)

·   Sentiments- Computer Generated

·   Assorted background papers and silver Metallic Sharpie Marker from my stash

·   Instructions for making Action Wobble Spring can be found on the web. I like THIS ONE.

Digging through my stash I found lots of patriotic items to help decorate the card. It is being added into a packet of all occasion cards that I’ll use as a wedding or graduation gift. 

Supplies: 

·   Digi- Bugaboo (Summertime Peekers Watermelon)

·   Colored with Spectrum Noir alcohol markers and Sakura Gelly Roll white gel pen

·   Sentiments- Computer Generated

·   Paper napkins ( Red&white checked and blue star), assorted cardstock and misc. collage items from my stash
