Snc - CCC Day 5

Here is my Day 5 card for the Christmas card challenge!  Our prompt for today was gifts.

I cut the presents from Basic Grey Jovial 12x12 paper and then used a 6x6 pad to build the rest of my card. The light panel was punched using my Fiskars Threading Water punch and the strip above it is a BG ribbon doily.  I added stickles to the gifts to made them stand out more, love how they look!  The sentiment is from a Hero Arts Christmas stamp set.

SnC CCC - Day 4

Quick post for tonight!

This is my Day 4 Christmas challenge card. Our prompt for today was to use an ornament and a border punch.  I really wanted to make a shaped card with the Cricut but I was short on time. 

I used my Ornamental Christmas stamp set from Verve Stamps and a SU! border punch for the card requirements.  The paper is some of my favorite ever - Basic Grey Jovial.

SnC CCC - Day 3

TGIF!

Here is my Day 3 card.  I read through days worth of challenges before I started creating and was inspired by several challenges in making my card tonight.

First I started with Christmas Stampin' All Year Long's challenge to use "A Pair of 3" and used 3 frogs, 3 patterned papers, stamped the sentiment three times and added 3 gems.  When I was selecting my paper I incorporated Do You Stack Up's challenge to use polka dots. Finally I tore the paper and inked it for 4 Crafty Chick's Distressing challenge.

Supplies~
Stamps: Jolly Christmas (Hero Arts)
Paper: Be Merry (My Mind's Eye)
Ink: Tuxedo Black (Memento), Creamy Brown (Colorbox Chalk Ink)
Other: copics (YG95, YG97, BG01, R37, RV21), rhinestones (Queen & Co)

Adore {a layout}

Happy August!

Sorry my blog has been so quiet. I was sick...again. Ugh!  I think I'm almost over it though. Hopefully this will be the end of my allergies/sinus issues for awhile!!

Tonight I'm sharing a layout that I made on Friday night for my 52 week challenge (yes, I'm still in it!!) and for the Frosted Designs One Word Title challenge.

I created this page using a Page Maps sketch from February.  The picture is of my nieces at my wedding and the one word title challenge was a great push for me to scrap this adorable picture :)

Here is a close up of the picture of the banner I created. The base is lace and I attached it with some brads from my stash and I accented it with gems and the banner pieces were cut from the MFT Fishtail Banner die-namics.

I got a new camera yesterday so I took these pictures with it. I am in love. It's a Panasonic Lumix and has a lot more power/features than my old Lumix did.

I hope to be blogging a lot more this month! I still have a lot of layouts & cards from last month that I haven't shared yet and hope to get in my craft room this weekend to make some new stuff. I've been glued to the TV since Friday night (as I'm sure lots of people are!) Love watching the Olympic games!

Supplies~
Paper: Basic Grey Cappela
Other: BG Cappela bloomers, BG border sticker, Thickers, Marvy Scallop Circle punch, MFT Fishtail Banner Die-namics, lace, brads and gems (all from my stash)
