Get Creative Challenge #29 Holiday Theme with Sami Stamps

Good morning crafties.

Today I am showing you a quick card I made using a digi stamp from SamiStamps for the Get Creative #29 challenge.  I fell in love with this little guy as soon as I saw him.  I have a special person in mind for this card.

I recently purchased some copics and I'm getting used to them.  I still don't blend very well, but I think he turned out pretty cute.  I also got some washi tape and I tried pulling it all together with that.  I'm not sure I like the transparency of it though.  Please leave me a comment and let me know what you think.

Make sure you head on over to the Get Creative Challenges Blog and see all the cute cards everyone made.

Until next time, thanks for coming!

Seasons Greetings (Shaker)

Good morning ... are you ready to shake again?

As I know it's not Christmas or snowing yet I wanted to show you a card I made with the inspiration from Erika (a Getting Cricky DT-Sister) over at Crafty Sprouts.  If you missed the card I made the other day you can go here and view it.  I am also entering this card in her challenge and tomorrow I will have one more.

I created a window scene so to say.  Imagine sitting in front of your bay window and looking out.  This is what you might see...

I cut the snowman, the trees and the snowflakes with my E-craft.  The window I also cut after I welded 1 square and 2 rectangles together.  I added the seasons greetings ribbon from my stash and the snowflake background paper.  I added some white sequins to fill it up and gave the snowman a Peachykeen face from the Dolly Dumpling set.  I also added some puffy paint to the trees. Unlike the fish I made the other day, I added two layers of the foam tape because the snowman and the trees were a bit more dimensional also.  This really gave it a 3d affect.  My son already has claimed this to be his christmas card.  LOL
