AHSC # 79

Hello Crafty Friends,
   Well after a long day I finally got my card for the design team done.....23:20 and boy am I tired....so here is the sketch....
and here is my card...

I used a retired stamp set and a new technique I found on pintrest (dont you just love that site!) called Diamond dust. Basically I random stamped snowflakes in slate, blush, and the new purple thistle and then covered with versa mark, clear emboss powder, heat set it, then added sparkles and heat it again. I love how it turned out.
Good night for now

Hello Crafty Friends,
    Happy thanksgiving to anyone celebrating today! I love this holiday, my mom is an amazing cook :)
but I digress, here is the sketch that we are following this week for Atlantic Hearts sketch challange 

and here is my interpretation of the sketch......

I used calk it up paper because I haven't ordered snow haven yet and used all my Yuletide carol up :)

Its just straight stamped and the photo isn't the greatest. Sorry about that....

Until next time!

Hello Crafty Friends,
   Since I missed last week for the sketch over at Atlantic hearts  I decided to play along today with this gorgeous angel from the hostess collection C1587 Sing Glory

and here is the sketch 

Used Glacier ink and card stock with a bit of the old grey for a soft look.

Thanks for looking

Christmas Cards

Hello Crafty Friends,
    I have been making some Christmas cards for an upcoming craft fair. Mostly retired papers, but current stamps......I used some doodling around the elf card....what do you think? I also used the sketch from 52 Christmas Card Throw down.

I love this cardinal!! Used the Christmas Cards All Year Round 's Challenge to embellish it...

And I used Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge Sketch for this card which I forgot to link up as I am a member of the design team..... Sorry I was late ladies!!!! 

And over at Christmas Card Challenges blog they have an anything goes theme this week.

So where do you get your inspiration for your Christmas Cards?
