Art,

These three little mice are simply adorable and the

blue watercolor background superb.

The candy canes look amazing I can

imagine how good they taste.

Think you nailed the "no red or green"

CARDZ TV STAMPS

"Very Merry"

This card is really pretty easy to make

but is really beautiful

first start with two

of the same images

I used

added some glossy accents and chunky glitter  

Stampin Up Delightful Decorations stamp set & Ornament Punch

this is a retired set but you can

find it on Ebay

next I mounted them back to back

over a piece of gold DCM

Metallic thread

I found this at AC Moore

next to the embroidery floss

next cut a mat an adhere that to your card base

with repositional adhesive

this needs to be a side folding card

make sure this is centered

I did use a some painter's tape to hold the

die down make sure to press the tape on

your clothes first to take some of the tackiness

off the tape

run this through you die cutting machine

save the extra pieces I will show a card

I made with these in an upcoming post

carefully

remove the top mat from the card base

center the ornament in the window

align the top mat over the card base

 the magic of the card is when you

open it the ornament spins back

and forth

On the inside of the card

I used TH tea die ink on a pierced rectangle

there a little space and the top

and at the bottom to

hand write a personal

message

to finish the card

 some diamond stickles

and McGill Pine Branch punch

a button and a bow

"May Peace be your gift at Christmas

and your blessing all year through! "

Die Cuttin' Diva's Sketch Challenge

Hi Everyone

I am super excited today

My good friend

Georgiana from

from

Carson's Creations

asked me if I would

like to be a

Guest Diva today

for a Sketch Challenge

At

Die Cuttin Diva's

could not be happier!

I was able to pick any

sketch from the last year

I chose July

Now some of you made be scared

by this kind of challenge

you shouldn't be

It's really easy

if you break it down.

I used scraps from my

HUGE bin of Christmas scraps

the yellow strip

is 2" wide by 5 1/2 " long

sure you all have this size of paper

in your scrap bin

next are the rectangles

if you have any nesting dies

you can you use two sizes

Large for the pink Smaller for the White

and you are all set

Here is my card

Now I did place the smaller rectangle

in the center and the sketch is off

center but a sketch is really a way to

get you started in your design

I add the ornament from

Joys of the Season

this is one of my all time

favorite Christmas cuts

added some diamond stickles

and McGill Pine Branch punch

a button and a bow

will stamp the sentiment on

the inside when I decide who I

will be send this card to!

Hope you will join this weeks challenge!

Janis

the Gold embossing on this card

is just fabulous. I love the

combination of gold, red and green

all the traditional colors of Christmas.

So glad that I am not the only one that

has old stamps and no idea where they came from

lol!

The progression of the tree tells a beautiful story.

Great card!
