Winter Wonderland - Sketch #11

Happy Friday everyone!

I'm back today with a card for the Winter Wonderland challenge this week which is Marianne's fabulous sketch!  And I get to play with some Henry Mouse images courtesy of my teamie, Kate!!  OMW, he is just too cute for words!  We are sponsored this week by the fabulous and generous Heidi at Simon Says Stamp where you could be up to win a $15 gift certificate to spend in the store!!  We hope to see your creations this week!

I coloured with my copics and added some sparkle on the ornament snowflake although it's not easily seen on the photo.  Paper is from stash and I used the MS Icicle punch for the punched border and also her snowflake punch.  Ribbon is from stash and the bow was made using the bow-easy.  I am also entering this card into the Bah-Humbug! challenge this week which is 'Ribbons'.

Thanks for stopping by - I hope you don't find it too difficult looking at a winter card when the weather is so gorgeous outside!!  I have to say though my christmas card stash is coming along very nicely!

We're have glorious weather set for the long weekend - 30oc+ and my father-in-law arrives with his wife from Bangkok for a short visit on Sunday!  We're all looking forward to that - can't say how much crafting I'll get done but hey ho, will do what I can!

Enjoy your weekend and thanks for your beautiful comments!

Friday Sketchers - A Christmas Card

Happy Monday!

I hope you're all well and enjoying your day today! I have used the gorgeous WOJ stamp that I won in Bev's blog candy - she is such a sweetie - just love the ringlets in her hair!! I coloured her with my copics and used the gorgeous sketch from Friday Sketchers this week.

The paper is Daisy D's and I embossed the back panel with the swiss dots folder. Adhesive pearls, a poinsetta prima flower and ribbon add the finishing touches.

Today is a holiday so I'm off back down to my craft room to make the most of some more crafting time before the rest of the week resumes and daily chores take over!

Thanks for stopping by and visiting me today! I love to see you here and hope you take the time to leave me a comment and let me know you came by!

I also want to post a quick thank you to Jacqui as I won her Wags 'n Whiskers Blog Hop candy - a sweet stamp from their new collection. I've been on a very lucky winning streak recently and am so grateful for the generosity of everyone out there in blogland!

Hugs,

Edit: WOW! Can hardly believe it but I won the whole release of Wags 'n Whiskers stamps from the blog hop. My lucky mom gets to have the stamp I won from Jacqui!

Whiff of Joy Baby Card - Friday Sketchers

Hi there!

What a beautiful day we've had here for Canada Day - they were forecasting thunder showers but the rain has stayed away! I've managed a bit of stamping time today and got this baby card done that I've been asked to do. I was excited to ink up my new WOJ 'Women's Delight' image and she is an absolute joy to colour! I kept the colour tones to brown and pink and used the fabulous Friday Sketchers layout. I used my Prisma penciles with OMS to colour her in. I sewed the two main panels to add some interest and used the MS Doily punch and oval nesties. Flowers, spacers and MS branch punch, together with a swirl and pearls add the finishing touches.

We're off to see the Canada Day fireworks tonight with the boys - should be a beautiful evening. We also put the tent up for them in the back yard today so they're excited about their 'camp out' tonight!! We'll also be lighting up the fire and toasting marshmallows, mmmm!!

Thanks for stopping by today and taking the time to comment! I love reading them and they are always so much appreciated! Have a great evening all!

Hugs,
