Last day to link up to the Build your stash holiday card linky party.

This card I created using a Hero Arts stamp set called Warm Wishes Penguins.

I used the Honeybee Stamps Ocean Deep Scene Builder die set to cut my ice skating area. I dabbed on some Tim Holtz transparent matte texture paste. 

The buildable tree I've had in my stash for years without packaging so idk who makes it.

I added falling snow with white gel pen.

The little Santa hat is a recollections sticker.

One of my cards got top pick for August at the Caffeinated Christmas card challenge blog .

Along with the honor, I am a guest designer for this month's challenge: coffee + gnomes.

This month's sponsor is Miss Ink Stamps 

I'm on Miss Ink Stamps' design team, so I created my card using all Miss Ink Stamps products.

The gnome is from a fun stamp set named BIG MUGS.

The background scene is a pretty scenic stamp set called MOUNTAINSIDE.

I used the alphabet die cuts from the following two die sets to spell out Merry Christmas. I added some snow with a white gel pen:  

Merry: MODERN TYPESET FRAME

Christmas: EIEIO FRAME

I added snowfall to my background and card front with the TINY SNOWFALL stencil. 

It's a SHAKER!

I made a card for challenge 21 at Caffeinated Christmas card challenge blog

I realized after I made my card, it says candy or cookies and I used a cake pop. 🤦‍♀️😂 oops! Well, I'm going with the fact there's candy sprinkles on it and the festive latte. I hope that qualifies 😊

I used a stamp set called Treat yo'self from Honeybee stamps  and a Merry Christmas is Tsol. 

Double Trouble 147

Hello! It's been a while since I've done a Double Trouble Challenge blog challenge 

I created this card for number 147, requirements for Thing 1 & 3. 😁 You can check out the details of the challenge at the link above. 

This was a pretty quick and easy card thanks to stencils. I used Pumpkin Pouf and halftone circle stencil from A colorful life designs. I'm on their DT; use code VanessaFan10 for 10% savings off your entire order 😊

The stamp and mini slimline die set is TSOL. 

WBW!

 It's Wood block Wednesday! You can check it out and join the fun HERE!

On Monday, I just happened to be near Hobby Lobby and had some time to kill, so I decided to wander around inside. Our HL is very disappointing when it comes to papercrafting so my expectations were low, and that's ok! I don't need anything, but I sure am envious of those who post their amazing clearance hauls. Lol! 

No amazing hauls, BUT! I couldn't have been more excited... I recently saw someone post a card with this stamp that I looooved, and they said "it's an old wood stamp I've had." Guess what!? I literally,  grabbed it, hugged and did a little happy stamp dance in the aisle. 😂😂

Inkadinkado friendly cow with flower stamp! On clearance for $1.99! Also that sentiment for $1.24...  love it! And just in time for WBW 😊

The stenciled chicken wire is Sweet n Sassy Stamps stencil,  wood frame die hero arts and the flower shaped die, tsol.
