Winter Wonderland

Hi everyone!!  It’s Lori and this week it is my turn to post some projects for you!!  I pulled out an old favorite of mine, Bundled up Mike from Whipper Snapper.  Isn’t he just adorable?!  I’m not sure about where you are but here in Minnesota it is a bit chilly so we need to be sure to have our hat and scarf!!  I wanted to frame this image so I used my Spellbinders Matting Basics A & B, those make it so fast and easy!!  I recently purchased Stampendous Shaved Ice that I added under Mike and randomly around him.  I love the different colors you get and I think it is so much fun!!
I hope you enjoy and thanks so much for stopping by today!!

Supplies:
Stamps:  Whipper Snapper Bundled Up Mike
Paper:  GKD Pure Luxury White & Dark Sage
Ink:  Memento Espresso Truffle, Copics
Accessories:  Spellbinders Matting Basics A & B, Stampendous Shaved Ice

Merry Christmas Ya’ll

Today is my second day as a guest designer for Crafty Card Gallery
and I’m honored that Jennifer has allowed me to be her guest this
week!! Today I’ve colored a cute little cowgirl with Christmas colors
and she’s ready to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas!! I hope you
enjoy her.

I really wish you could see how this little girl sparkles!! You can find this cute cowgirl digi at Scrapbook Stamp Society.  The digi was printed out on X Press-It
Blending Card and cut out using Spellbinder dies. Versa Color Green Tea
was used around the edges of the white card.  The pattern paper is from
DCWV Glitter Christmas pad
and was also cut with Spellbinder dies. Stickles was used to make her
bling like Christmas lights and the Merry Christmas was printed out on
transparency using Microsoft Word and AR Christy Font. The bling on the sides is from Spare parts. Adhesive used was Zig, Xyron and ATG. The base of the card is Bazzill.

Of course my Copics was used to color this cute little cowgirl. Copics: E11, E13, E21, E31, E43, E55, E57, E79, YG05, YG67, Y28, G09, G14, YG95, C1, C3, C5, W00, W1, W4, YR22, YR27, R24, R27, R29, R39, V12, RV04

My week with Crafty Card Gallery has come to an end but watch out for
all of Jennifer’s Design Team and see what she has in store for us this
year, I’m sure you will like it. I’m just going to leave you today with
these words… MERRY CHRISTMAS YA’LL!!!


Time to go Sledding

 
Oh yeah baby!! Christmas vacation started today!! For the next almost
two weeks I don’t have to set the alarm clock except for Sunday to go to
church!! Yippeee!!! Two weeks to design cards!! So I’m starting off by
being a guest designer on Crafty Card Gallery where I’m presently on the design team. I hope you enjoy my snowy card for today!!

This cute digi is called Sledding and is from QKR Stampede. I have used a pattern paper from Heidi Grace for my background paper. The digi has been printed out on X Press It Blending
Card. The white snowflake was cut out with a die cut from Spellbinders.
The blue brad is from Spare Parts. I used Martha Stewart glitter on the
snowflake and outlined the white card stock with Crystal stickles and blue lagoon ColorBox chalk. The Snow is from K and Company.

 

Of course I used my Copics to color the digi. Copics: Colorless Blender,
Y000, Y13, Y35, YG13, YG25, BG09, BG13, BG49, G43, G46, B000, B02, B04,

 I hope you have enjoyed my post today, I’ll be back tomorrow with another fun card!! Thanks Jennifer for letting me be your guest designer!!

My favorite cards of 2012

So last year I saw someone post their favorite cards of the year.  I enjoyed it so much that I decided to do it again this year.  I’ve been fortunate enough to have some fabulous guest designers this year on my blog – but I’m only going to include my own cards that I made…  and why they’re my favorites.  These are in chronological order…

1) We have a friend we tease about being the cookie monster – and I had bought the stickers like a year in advance…  I love the birthday stickers and think its just fun…

2) I love Bo Bunny paper – and I love the ribbon and the shape.  I even fussy cut out the flower on top…  This paper made several appearances this year… 🙂

3) I love these stamps because they’re so stinking cute, and the fun surprise in the inside of the card is super cool!

 4. Easy-peasy card made with my Cameo.  Love how easy it was and how cute the card is!

5) Card with matching cupcake holder… I think the paper is super cute and the ruffle is adorable!

6) I love the flower.  I so love making ribbon flowers with Glubers, and this time I colored the ribbon with my copics.  Too fun!

7) I haven’t made a lot of cooking/male cards and I just like the style of this one.  Doesn’t hurt that the paper is great…

8) I made this for a friend that loves wine (I can’t get the picture to rotate)…same paper as above but with cool sage ruffle ribbon and a super cool wine image…

9) I really like the letter stickers which I put metallic flakes on….

10) Bo Bunny Paper, asian inspired.  Enough said.  in fact, this card hasn’t made it to it’s intended recipient yet.  It’s still in my craft room.  That’s how I know I like it… 🙂

11) I was so happy to have figured out how to use the stamps & dies that go together (and I like the style of this card)…

12) I pretty much like anything that has leaves on it, and like that I print & cut these from my Cameo…

13) How can you not love the paper, and most importantly this super cute stamp????  I saw it & had to have it!

OK, so I went a little over my 10, but these are my all time favorites for the year.  Did you do a post with your favorite cards?  I’d love to see it 🙂  You can comment below with the link, or you can post it on my facebook page – https://www.facebook.com/CraftyCardGallery
