      This is another card for the 12th Annual Month of Holiday Cards Challenge at Beccy’s Place, featuring a yummy fall beverage in a pumpkin mug! I wanted to give the mug a ceramic look, and I think I accomplished that by adding a cloudy “glaze” with a white pencil after coloring the image with alcohol markers. Also, I created the sentiment by carefully adhering the back of the sentiment trimmed from a Halloween napkin to a piece of  Clear Self-Stick Laminating Sheet (packing  tape might also work.) After smoothing out any bubbles, cute the sentiment and use it on the card as desired.

     I’m entering this card into several challenges including Inspiration Station: Photo Prompt (my cart includes a hot beverage and a Fall/Halloween theme complete with pumpkins), and  Passion for Markers Challenge: Fall or Winter  (my card has a prominent fall theme!) 

 

Supplies: 

·   Digi is from a Beccy’s Place Digi Set (Pumpkin and Spice)

·   Colored with Spectrum Noir Classique markers, Sakura Gelly Roll white gel pen, and white colored pencil

·    Brick Wall background- upcycled from an old magazine

Since I’m a Contributor for Beccy’s Place, I’m entering just for fun!  

      I created this card for the current Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers {BYSHC} Sketch Challenge using a snowman image I found in my stash. I know that it is from Stampin’ Up!… possibly part of a stamp set in the late 90’s or early 2000’s?  The sentiments are both from Beccy’s Place digi sets.

   

Supplies: 

·   Snowman Image from Stampin’ Up clear set- Retired

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

·   Sparkly Heart Stickers- Hobby Lobby

·   Front Sentiment-“Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” from a Beccy’s Place Digi Set (Home for the Holidays)

·   Inside Sentiment- “... Hugs and Kisses”  ” from a Beccy’s Place Digi Set (Keeping it Simple)

·   All other items from my stash.
