Christmas Wishes

  I have a few young men in my life who I give Christmas cards to but I always find it a challenge to figure out what stamp or stamps to use on their cards. I think Joey Snowy is absolutely adorable! and perfect for a masculine themed Christmas card. These young men all like and have a dog in their life so I masked the dog out of the "Christmas Treat" stamp to add to the card. 

Here's hoping this card works for one of the youngun's in my life and brings a smile. 

                                                                      

I stamped both stamps on alcohol marker friendly paper, coloured them with Copic markers and hand fussy cut them. I loved the colours of the Winter Magic paper from Echo Park and coloured my stamps to match it. 

I cut my card base and rounded the bottom front corners with a corner punch and cut the patterned paper and card stock to match. Next I cut some patterned paper using a rounded corner die to use as a back drop behind the stamps and added some ribbon to "ground" them. 

I stamped the sentiment, added it to matching card stock and cut some fish tail banner dies to go behind it. Some enamel dots finish off my card.

Welcome Everyone;

The weeks are certainly going by quickly and before we know it Christmas will soon be here.  It is definitely time to start creating some Christmas cards.

For today's card, I have used the adorable Christmas Treat image from High Hopes Rubber Stamps.
After stamping it on copic friendly paper, I coloured it with Copic Markers.  Using a Square Double Stitched In and Out die, I cut it out.  The Peakaboo Squares die was used to cut several mats in different sizes. Some embellishments were added to these squares.

Ribbon and some enamel dots completed the card.

Christmas Treat

Howdy - MichelleO here today for High Hopes Stamps and an adorable Christmas Image ... "Christmas Treat". How can you not love Santa with a puppy?

I know our doggies are high on my treat list for Christmas! I colored with my Copics (colors below) and then cut out the image with a circle die cut. I inked the edges with Ranger Distress ink to make it pop a bit more. Pattern papers from Cloud 9 seemed fun with the whimsical trees. And I love the glitter to the paper. The sentiment is from High Hopes Stamps "Good Friends" is perfect with this image! Then three vintage buttons on the corner for embellishments.

Copic colors used -
