Silent Night

Another of my Christmas card, this is a Hero Arts stamps, die cut from

my stash and dry embossed card front.

Blessings and Joy

I ordered a kit from Stampin Up that made 5 of 4 different card designs and

I missed taking a picture of one.  I used my own stamps versus buying the

stamp set they had.  I thought they came out nice.  I did add some

Wink of Stella that does not show up in the pictures. I make about

80 cards so this was a nice boost.

The House That Stamps Built-Designer Choice Challenge

This week is was my turn to pick the Designer Choice Challenge for

The House That Stamps Built, I went with anything but a card

with the option of Christmas with the hope of seeing the

Christmas projects everyone is working on.

 

Here are a few of mine:

 

I was actually addressing a Christmas card and looked at it

and thought, this would make a pretty ornament, cut it up

and this was the result. 

Portland Head Light Christmas

Image colored with watercolor pencils,

 background with Copics.  Embossed with

clear embossing powder twice.

Shepherd Boy

 

Colored same as above, also clear embossed

twice, this deepens the colors.

Christmas Teddy
