I Hope Santa Spoils You Rotten

Penny Black Santa's Helper, 
Sugar Pea Designs Here Comes Santa (sentiment)

Hello!  I'm here today to share a Christmas card, my one and only that I've made so far.   I'm having a late start this year and now panicking as there's only a few more days left to meet the USPS holiday shipping deadline, yikes!  I think I'll need to find a design that I can mass produce quickly! 

I stamped this sweet Penny Black image on Bristol Vellum paper, colored him with Marvy (watercolor) LePlume markers and then added Star Dust Stickles to his Santa hat.   For the background, I used Darice's Diagonal Stripe Embossing Folder.

I'll be sharing my CAS card with these challenges:  Simon Says Wednesday Challenge, Gift It; Penny Black and More Challenge, December CAS; and  Penny Black Saturday Challenge, Winter or Christmas.

Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by to visit, I really appreciate it!   Hope you're having a fabulous week!

Party Like a Pirate


Hello, hope you're having a wonderful weekend!

Today I'm sharing the card I made for my grandson's birthday.  I wanted a card with pirates sailing the ocean blue so went looking for a pirate ship cutting file.   From the two that I found, one from Miss Kate Cuttables and the other from Etsy, Mama's Controlled Chaos, I was able to make a ship that would accommodate these pirates by using pieces from both cutting files.

My supplies were all from MFT:  Party Like a Pirate stamp, Ocean Waves Die-namics and the Cloud stencil.  The pirates were colored with copic markers and everything was cut out with my ScanNCut 2. 

I'll be sharing this with the Simon Says Wednesday Challenge, Anything Goes.

Thanks so much for looking!
