Spectrum Noir November Challenge

It's Challenge Time! Who's in?
The challenge theme for November over at Spectrum Noir is: Christmas and Winter

YAY! Easy enough. Here's what I made...


I colored with Spectrum Noir Markers:
  • Reds - DR6, CR8, CR4
  • Nose - OR2, OR1
  • Holly Leaves - DG3, DG2
  • Arms - EB3
  • Cheek - CR4, Blender
  • Hat - IG9, IG7, IG5, IG3, IG1
  • Snow shadows and shading - IG2, BG2, BG1, Blender

The stamps are from the new Nordic Christmas - Cool Christmas stamp set. For the cardbase, I used the new Nordic Christmas 6"x6" Frosty Morning Embossing Folder with Spectrum Noir High Gloss Cardstock. The shinny texture gives a wonderful look to the design. Some of the details are hard to see in the pic.


I used Sparkle Shimmer Spritz to paint on the scarf, cane and hat band. On the buttons, I added 3D Crystal Lacquer. Stampendous Fran'tage Shaved Ice and Crystal Glitter added to give the snow some bling bling. 


I love how this card turned out! I hope you have time to play this month. Get all the challenge and prize details at: http://a.pgtb.me/4PPP5C

NEW O' Holy Night Edge'able

YAY! More NEW Edg'ables over at Crafter's Companion USA! Christmas goodies galore. I'm totally lovin' all the wonderful new products CCUSA has been releasing - especially all the dies.

Here's a card I made using the NEW Die'sire Edge'ables Christmas Only Words - O' Holy Night die


Using white cardstock, I die-cut and embossed the word border die. To add the black embossed areas, I left the paper in the die and colored them with a VersaMark Marker, Next, I went over the same areas with a Memento Tuxedo Black Marker, then carefully removed the paper from the die, sprinkled on the clear embossing powder and heat set.

This new word border die works together perfectly with the O' Holy Night Create-A-Card die from the new Die'sire Create-A-Card Christmas Collection. The sentiment is stamped and embossed on a die-cut star with crushed glass glitter around the edges.

Using Kraft Cardstock, I die-cut and embossed the CAC die twice from. With the die left in place, I used it as a stencil to apply the white ink. The ink really brings out the details of embossed areas.  On one of the panels, I cut the off trees and arch, then popped up that piece with foam adhesive tape on top of the full cut out piece. The Edge'ables border is popped up on top of all that, with crushed glass glitter underneath.


The card base is black cardstock sprayed with Sheer Shimmer Spritz. The stamped rays, from the Textures Artist Collection - Walls and Corners stamp set, are embossed with Ranger Liquid Platinum Embossing Powder. I die-cutting some stars using the CAC die and Gold Dust Shimmering Cardstock. Three of the stars are adhered over baby Jesus, 4 more are at the top of the card.


Inside the card, I stamped the rays with Desert Sand Memento dye ink. The sentiment is stamped and embossed. The angel is a die-cut from the CAC die using the Gold Dust Shimmering Cardstock, then embossed with Liquid Platinum EP.  I really love how this card turned out.

House-Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge

Hey House-Mouse friends...just poppin' in quick to remind you about our current challenge:

Autumn/Fall

You still have time to join in on the fun! We'd LOVE to see more great House-Mouse & Friends images being loved.

Here's mine...


I colored the sky and ground with markers and a blender pen. The mouse and leaves are colored with pencils. I added some beautiful Autumn Art Glitter around end edge of the kraft cardstock and a few touches here and there on the leaves and ground. I also added some Stampendous Frantage Color Fragments in Leaf Green and Caramel on the ground.

The leaves are punched out of kraft cardstock. The green one is embossed with Stampendous Vintage Olive Embossing Tinsel. The other 2 are a combination of Aged Spice and Aged Gold Frantage Embossing Enamel -- with some specks of the Color Fragments tossed on. They are absolutely STUNNING!
