Shades of green Recipe #64

Hello all,
I seem to have forgotten to add my last weeks recipe, I think I've lost my mind along the way with the Christmas frenzy shopping this last two weeks:-( So here is recipe 64 and this week Michele has challenged us to :
1. Shades of green:-)
2.The sketch below
The winner will get 3 Digi images from Crafts 4 Eternity! Go Here to play with us at Crafts 4 Eternity

I had a bit of a hard time with everything being "green" as you can see:-) But I did as much green as I could fit, haha. I had so much fun using Crissy Armstrongs new image called "Leap of Joy" I cut my Reindeer out and used pop dots on the back. Copics were used to color my image and I added green smooch to the holly and a bit of gold to the bells. Please go and see what the rest of the team came up with

Supplies used were:
Image: Crissy Armstrong:Leap of Joy from Whimsy stamps
DP: College press: Little Flurries
CS:Bazzill,
Copic markers, smooch
flat backed rhinestones
Border Punch and sentiment stamp from Stampin up
Here's to the last weekend before Christmas and I hope everyone gets their last minute shopping done:-)

Sunday's With Crissy Challenge #12 Christmas is coming! or Winter is Here!

Welcome back

Two Posts in one day :-) It's my turn to share my card for December's Challenge Crissy has come up with, which is either Christmas themed or Winter:-) I picked Christmas, I have to catch up on my card making by this weekend or there will be no cards from me, Yikes! My image is a new Angel from Crissy called "Touched By Love" which can be found Here at Whimsy Stamps. Why not have a try in the challenge, If you are one of the first 12 entrys, Crissy is giving an extra digital image plus the chance at the end of the month to win the regular prize! Go to Crissy's Post HERE to enter your card! This challenge is for the Month of December.

I used Graphic 45 Papers that I've had in my stash, with Bazzill and Bo Bunny CS. My image was colored with Copic Markers on Georgia Pacific CS, a tiny bit of red Spica on the berries of the holly, SU ultra fine glitter for her wings and the blanket, I used Stampin ups corner and border punch that I recently ordered, which I thought was just so elegant to add to this beautiful angel and Baby. The ribbon is actually three different ribbons I put together from my ribbon collection.
Supplies used:

Twinkling Stars R#61

Here we are at another Friday,

We had a wonderful quiet ThanksGiving yesterday and today is the start of a new Challenge over at Crafts 4 Eternity:-)

The Challenge is: 1. To use the sketch below

2. Add some stars somewhere on your project!

The prize this week is 3 digi images, Christmas ones have been added recently
I decided to use my wonderful Magnolia Tilda holding her star wand, and glued tiny star confetti to the dangling stars:-) Some yellow MS type of confetti glitter added to the large star. The DP is from a DCWV stack I've had and thought it would be fun to use just the part with the snowman, I added SU ultra fine glitter to the snowman and snow drifts, some more confetti stars were glued to the background and prima flowers with a glitter covered brad were added to finish off the bottom. a EK success border punch was used and it had a tiny dot cut out above each scallop that I hid with the aqua and brown cs. I made the card 5.5x5.5.
I would also like to add this card to the following:

paper play : stars

paper take weekly : Cut it out

Recipe#57 O Christmas Tree

Hi All,

I hope your week has gone well:-) I am having a tooth pulled today as I have been having problems with it, so my weekend may not be as great as some of you, hehe

This weeks Challenge for Crafts 4 Eternity is to add a tree to the sketch below:-) I dug out an Ollyfant stamp set I purchased last year and it worked perfectly for this sketch and challenge!
I added a sentiment I made on the computer, and punched it with SU's oval punch and oval scallop punch. I paper pieced the ribbons for the tree, used SU design paper, and colored the image with Copic markers. There are hints of ultra fine glitter here and there for some sparkle. I cut the little girl out and used pop dots to place her in front of the tree, and I chalked the background with a new pan pastel pale blue color! PTI cs was used and some flat back pearls, I also added a bit of distressing to the papers.
The Prize this week is an adorable snowman that is pictured on crafts 4 Eternity's blog ,Please go and see what the other DT members came up with this week:-) Here's wishing everyone a great weekend!
