Two old bats...

Hello! Participating for the first time over at Two old Bats Halloween Challenge.

Last year I made Christmas cards all year and it was fun and I had plenty to send out when it rolled around. I'd like to do the same for all the holidays. This link up is perfect. 

My card:



I had fun making this card. I just bought distress resist spray so played around with it with oxide inks and shimmer spray. I added dies from The Stamps of Life.

Double Trouble and....

I made a card tonight that I'm linking to two challenges. I don't often do that; I like to create a card per challenge, but this card for the Double Trouble Challenge blog fits the caffeinated Christmas card Challenge, too, with coffee and snowflakes, soooo.... 

Double Trouble Challenge blog

Thing 1 


Recipe:     Warm & Cuddly 3-2-1 Recipe
Servings:  Unlimited Portions of Fun
Ingredients:  
     3  Colors of your choice     
     2  Layers 
     1  Warm & Cuddly Image 
         Use a stamped or digital image, or 
         one that is die-cut or hand-drawn

My colors are blue, purple and red. Neutral brown. 
Layers: matts 
And lastly, this cute little bundled up coffee drinking hedgehog from Gerda Steiner Designs looks warm and cuddly to me. ❤️ 

And since this is a coffee card with snowflakes on the ribbon I used, it fits the

Jaded Blossom

Hello! The Jaded Blossom Stamps challenge this month is anything goes! 😊 Click HERE for more information.  

I created a Thank you card for my MIL who is going to love it as she loves gnomes, and we just gave her a Christmas Vacation moose cup at Christmas so this card will be funny to her, too. Stamps, dies, and stencil are all Jaded Blossom. 




Wood Block Wednesday


Hello! It's time for another Wood Block Wednesday. Such fun! What is Wood Block Wednesday? Check it out HERE!

My card is featuring a NEW wood stamp in my collection. I love it so much! I was a lucky winner last wbw, and won a generous gc to Rubbermoon stamps, a new to me company. I had so much fun shopping. They have so many choices, wood mount and cling. Check them out! I used a stamp called PUP CUP



I also used a clear stamp coffee set from A Jillian Vance Designs called But first, coffee .

My background was created with my current obsession, Lindy's magical powders from Lindy's Stamp Gang.
