Polar Bear Wishes....

Hello & Happy Tuesday Everyone!!
I've got a Super Quick post to share today!

I thought I would show ya my Weekly Holiday Card!
I'm actually on a roll with them - I've gotten several
done in a day, so I'm way ahead of schedule!!



I recently got some dies in that I had ordered and one of them
was the PRETTY Memory Box Crystal Snowflake Corner Frame
and I could NOT wait to use it!

So I cut it out in some Brushed Silver Cardstock and placed it
over that Baby Wipe Method background, I made a while ago
After adhering the 2 pieces together I pulled out an
adorable MFT Polar Bear that I had colored a while ago as well
and placed it in the corner - then I added some Fun Foam
to the backside of my card front and attached it to a Really Dark
Purple Card Base - I now needed a sentiment, so I pulled
out the Wishes Die from Pink & Main and die cut it out
2x's - Once in White & Once in Black then attached the
two together but offsetting them just a tad to give it a
nice shadow effect! Then I used my Clear
Wink of Stella pen on the word die, just to add some sparkle!

I then pulled out my Christmas word Stamp from Hero Arts
and stamped right above the Wishes Word die in Tuxedo Black Ink

My card needed a couple of  jewels (of Course)
So I used some Ice Cube Jewels from Lucy's Cards
to complete my lovely Winter card!

I'm very Happy with the outcome and can't wait to mail this
off to someone this Christmas!

Thanks for stopping by!
Have an AWESOME DAY!!!

Glad to have a friend....

Hello & Happy Thursday Everyone!
I have a quick post for ya today!

 I'm sharing a Simple CAS card
I made using a couple of Raisin Boat Stamps 



I used a Dylusions Small Triangle Stencil and
some Distress Oxide Ink in Cracked Pistachio,
Peacock Feathers, Broken China, Blueprint Sketch

I basically masked off the area I wanted to cover with
my stencil and blended all my shades of blues & greens together
Then peeled my mask off to reveal the design

Then I stamped the Tractor image with Vintage Photo 
Distress Oxide Ink and did the same with the Sentiment

Because my ink is still kind of wet, I took my heat tool
and dried everything before placing it thru my
big shot with the Stitched Rectangle die -

I placed it on a piece of Fun Foam for Dimension
and I stenciled a little bit of the design on the
inside of my card as well - just to tie it all together --



Tractor Image is from  HomeGrown (10287-Z)



Sentiment is from Funky Monkey (10022-Z)




 I also wanted to remind YOU

We still have our Challenge going on over at


  Here's our Mood Board 



I'm sure you ALL can make something
with this awesome board!! --  You don't have to use
a stamp from SumMore Fun Stamps if you don't have one!

Hexagon Santa --

Hello & Happy Tuesday Crafty Friends!!!
I'm back with my other Hexagon Christmas card today!

I gotta say I LOVE how this one turned out too!!
Don't you guys love it when you make a project
and it turned out just the way you want or even better???

I know I do! I get all giddy like a little kid!! hahahaha


Isn't it CUTE??? I think having the assorted
Doodlebug paper makes it FUN!

So, I used my stitched hexagon die to die cut out little
scraps of the doodlebug paper and placed them
on my White card front - Then I took my
Stitched Rectangle die to trim it down and give it that
clean look - I then pulled out that adorable
Santa sitting in the chair from the (Milk & Cookies)
Odds & Ends package and POPPED him right
on there - then added the Merry Christmas Sentiment -

I didn't want to add to much more to this card because of
all the fun papers, but I did pull out my 
Black Glaze Gelly Roll pen and added dots to Santa's
eyes, then used it on his gloves, belt and boots
In person you can see the glaze and gives it that extra
touch the card needed!

Another one down for this year!! YES!!

Thanks for stopping by!
Have a FABULOUS DAY!!
