HO HO HO!

Merry Christmas! I have another quick Christmas card to share today.
 
HoHoHo
 

I love Santas and have collected them for a while, so when I saw this one I knew I wanted him to be my focal point.  I used a snowflake stencil and DI to make the snowflakes around and above him.  The Ho Ho Ho sentiment and label border are from Inspired by Stamping. The little Merry Christmas sentiment is from Rubber Stamp Tapestry.

Have a great day!

A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS

Well, we are getting pretty excited here at our house. Our son will be home soon and it will feel more like Christmas!  I have to admit, listening to Christmas music as I am making all of these cards has helped a lot too! I am even listening as I am writing this.

This card is made with the Mojo Monday sketch and Doodle Pantry’s papers, image and sentiment. It really made for a quick card! The image was pre-colored so I just had to cut, sew and glue. Ribbon and lace are from RRR, flower is from Inspired by Stamping and a couple of Spellbinders under the image complete this card.

Have a great weekend and have fun getting ready for Christmas. Please remember to hug your children extra tonight.

GUEST DESIGNING AT INSPIRED BY STAMPING

Oh my goodness! I am so excited to be joining Joanna and the girls as Guest Designer for Inspired by Stamping’s challenge #39. I won this honor in her challenge #33 for my Christmas card (click here if you missed it and want to see it) which featured a stamp from her Christmas Greetings set and some of her small flowers.  Thanks Joanna and all the gals at IBS for having me as your Guest Designer!

The challenge for this week is a color challenge, and Joanna has an inspiration photo (below). The colors are sage green, white and red and here is my card:

IBSIC39

That gorgeous red flower is one that is available (in white) from Inspired by Stamping. I sprayed it with Crimson Tattered Angels and added the three leaves, also available at IBS. Under the IBS sentiment on the SB is a Memory Box flourish and two more SB.  I wove ribbon through the lace, yep IBS lace lol, and used the same ribbon to fashion a bow under the flower. Martha Stewart came to the rescue on the paper. I used her Doily Edger Punch on three of the papers, two at the bottom and the red at the top. 

I hope you enjoyed my card. Now be sure to check out all of the beautiful inspiration from the IBS Design Team and have a Merry Christmas!
