myasperations 11-15-22

It’s the 15th of the month, so I’m sharing my DT card for the challenge at QKR Stampede. Stop by the challenge, which is always “Anything Goes” and several prizes are awarded. Maybe you’ll be inspired to enter a card or two yourself?
For this card, I used two of my favorite digital Christmas sentiments from QKR and Eureka to compliment a wood mount Baby Jesus stamp that I’ve had in my stash since the late ‘90’s. I embossed the stamped image with silver EP on a silver circle tag (also from my stash.) Starry background paper, plus silver star stickers add additional sparkle to the card.
Supplies: 

·   Wood Mount Stamp- Denami Designs “Baby Jesus” (retired but have seen on EBay)

·   Front Sentiment- QKR Stampede Digital Stamp (Merry Christmas) Also available in unmounted or cling-mounted

·   Inside Sentiment- Eureka Digital Stamp (Jesus Reason for the Season

·   Galaxy Patterned Paper- Hobby Lobby

·   3-D Star Stickers- Hobby Lobby

·   Pioneer Black Photo corners- available from several sources

·   All other items from my stash.
Entered into:  
Word Art Wednesday Challenge- #569-570 Anything Goes                   
Crafty Hazelnut’s Christmas Challenge- #620 AG    
Outlawz Challenge- Festive Friday   Since I’m a DT for Sheepski (sponsor), I’m entering just for fun! 

I haven’t entered a card into a challenge at The Paper Shelter (TPS) for a while, but just had to use this TPS digi for a card that is en route to a friend who loves Autumn as much as I do!
Using a free Word program named Paint.net (link is in my supplies list) I was able to create this scene by layering the beautiful digi onto the patterned background (both from the digi.) I printed off another copy of the beautiful bench sitter on white cardstock that I  colored, fussy-cut and adhered to the scene with a few small strips of foam tape. A few glittery leaf stickers add the surprise BLING! So fun!
I’m entering this card into several challenges including Leigh SB Designs “ Falling Leaves”;  Incy Wincy DesignsEncourage a Friend“; (This month’s challenge is a tribute to STAMPlorations artist/owner Shery Russ who was diagnosed earlier this year with Stage 4 metastatic breast cancer with metastasis to the right pelvis. You can learn about her journey to recovery, and help Shery and her family, by purchasing from STAMPlorations. The store is partially open- with product bundles on offer for up to 64% off.
