Christmas With The Cuties-----Let It Snow!

Howdy crafters!  Sorry my card is so late for the challenge over at the Christmas With The Cuties blog...there was a bit of a mix-up, but all is well now!  Have a look:


Our sponsor for this challenge is Pink Gem Designs

Their images are so cute!  The one I chose to use is Chilly With Birdhouse, and I used the pre-colored version.  I love having a pre-colored version, especially when pressed for time, as I was this month!  LOL!  My sentiment comes from the Merry and Joy stamp set from Honey Bee Stamps.  I was practically drooling over this stamp set when it came out, and this is the first I have ever used it!  Shameful, I know.  The cute designer paper comes from the MME Merry 6x6 pad.

Challenges:

12 Months of Christmas Link Up #40:  ATG or optional "Feline Festive" theme
Crafting by Designs:  Getting ready for Christmas
Fab 'n' Funky #391:  Christmas
The Paper Shelter #336:  Die cuts (I used Spellbinders dies to cut out my image and the mat underneath it)
Happy Little Stampers Christmas:  ATG or optional "jolly" twist
Happy Little Stampers:  ATG w/dies
The Cutie Pie Challenge:  Delightful Digis


Well, that is all for this evening.  Thanks so much for stopping by...if you have the time, please also stop by the Christmas With The Cuties blog and check out the other DT creations, and those of the participants!

Have a great weekend, and God Bless!

Sasayaki Glitter-----April Reminder Post

Greetings bloggers!  I hope you are all having a good week so far...Happy Hump Day!  LOL!  It's all downhill from here...


But anyway, I am here to show you what I made for the April reminder post over at the Sasayaki Glitter blog:




I apologize for the lackluster photo, but I was in a hurry to get it posted, and it was past my bedtime!  LOL!  This cutie is Elly the Elephant Dancing...isn't she adorable?  She sure looks like she is dancing like nobody is watching.  I wish I could feel more like that at times!   LOL!  The cute green checkered paper comes from the "hello sunshine" 6x6 paper pad from Doodlebug.  Although this paper was released in 2014, I just recently purchased it at Hobby Lobby, and I love it!  So cute!!  I happened to have a green card stock in a pack of brights that was a perfect match, so I went with a monochromatic look for this card.  The sentiment comes from a miscellaneous alphabet set.


Challenges:


The Cutie Pie Challenge #122:  Delightful Digis (use a digital stamp)
Sweet Stampin:  Animals
Create and Inspire #73:   ATG or optional use dies/stencils




I used the top row across for my BINGO card, the image is cut using a Spellbinders hexagon die.

CHN Patterend Paper:  ATG with patterned paper
Happy Little Stampers:  ATG with dies



Well, I must head off to bed now, so I'll sign off.  Thanks for stopping by, and have a great rest of the week!  

God Bless!
