Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow ...

Hello everybody! How are you doing? Do you also have a feeling that time is flying by at the speed of the light at this time of year? I honestly don't know where the first half of December went. To me it  feels like it was gone in the blink of the eye. 

Have you mailed your Christmas cards yet? Mine went in the mail last week. This should give them enough time to get to their destination.

One of the cards that is already on its way is also this one...

Sorry for bad photos, but the card had to be packed and mailed pretty much immediately after I finished it. 

I received this stamp set last year in a swap, but haven't had the chance to use it until now. First I stamped the snowman and seperately I stamped his accessories like bow and hat and placed them onto him. I like this stamp set because it has quite a few stamps - characters and many accessories for them. papers are from DCWV and snowflakes are LLLC and Sizzix dies.

Have a wonderful day! xx

Fun with penguins

Hey there! I'm back with another Christmas card. 

Once again I kept the design of my card pretty simple. This time I played with adorable penguin stamps from The greeting farm. For the background I used white cardstock on which I stamped some snowlakes from the same set as those penguins and embossed them with gold embossing powder. The sentiment is a TGF stamp as well. I finished the card with a couple of sequins and tiny pearls.

Have a wonderful day! xx

Staying warm

Hey, hey! A new challenge just started at The Sketchy Challenges and this forthnight we have a sketch challenge for you. Here's what the sketch looks like.

And this is the card I made.

I'm trying to work on my Christmas cards, but so far I'm not doing very well. I think this is only the second one I've made so far. Oh my ... I inked the adorable image from TGF and coloured it with Promarkers and pencils. I used papers from Kaisercraft and some lace, pom pom trim, pearl string and sequins to decorate the card.

I hope you'll come play with us! Have a great day! xx
