Winter Wonderland and Blog Candy Winner

I recently stumbled across a line of stamps and digital images called Cuddly Buddly! I wanted to buy a ton of their stamps, but with Christmas right around the corner, I decided to settle for buying some digital images instead. I am okay doing this since my latest favourite paper (Xpress Blending Card by Copic) to use for colouring with my copics can go through my printer and not jam it up! I see more digital images being downloaded in my future!

It has been a while since I have made a card to enter into some challenge blogs.  This cutie is being entered into four! It's final destination will be to my brother as his Christmas card!

Critter Sketch Challenge #44 No Patterned Paper

Happy Monday eveyone! I hope everyone is over filled with holiday spirit what ever  holiday you celebrate. I have a real cutie to show you today. The Critter Sketch Challenge Blog challenge #44 is no patterned paper. Our current sponsor is Bugaboo Stamps. They carry a wide range of images from cutesy stuff to ladies with attitude.

I used some amazing silver Shimmer Sheetz from Elizabeth Craft Designs. They do a great job of embossing with cuttlebug folders, embosssing plates and probably anything you use to emboss! I used three different sizzix folders on my card. I used the Martha Stewart deep edge snowflake punch for the snowflake piece.

Supplies used

Stamps: Wild Rose Studio Molly in the Snow

Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Copic Markers

Stamp Paper: X-Press It Blending Card from Copic

Cardstock: SU Real Red, Neehah Solar White

Paper: Elizabeth Craft Designs Silver Shimmer Sheetz

Accessories: Sizzix Basic Grey Embossing Folders, Oval and Scallop Oval Nestabilities, SU Oval and Scallop Oval Punches, Red Satin Center/ Reversible Ribbon

Stamp and Create-Wild Rose Studio

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...in the case of my house, it smells like Christmas. Mince Pies are a staple and here is a small batch I made fresh out of the oven!  I had to fight off the gannets to get a picture of actual pies instead of an empty tray! Some of them were damaged in the ambush!

The product spotlight this week at Stamp and Create is Wild Rose Studio. WRS has some really cute images that include fairies, dragons and my favourite, Milton the Bear. Here is Milton the Bear with Poinsettia. I used paper from the The Girls' Paperie Tinsel and Twig line, Christmas Carol Stripe and Holly Berry Floral. The Poinsettias are from Wild Orchid Crafts. I cut red felt using the medium scallop die both from Papertrey Ink. The sentiment was a freebie from a UK Paper Crafting Magazine.

During the Month of December, members of the Stamp and Create Design Team will be giving away blog candy. Be sure to check out Jeanette's blog this week to enter a chance to win some candy this week.

Thanks for visiting!
