I needed a Christmas card break. I checked out the Double Trouble card challenge to see what was going on over there....
I'm doing Thing 1 of it's up to you with the optional wacky holiday from the calendar link they provided.
Today is national look on the bright side of things day. I just happened to have the perfect stamp set from Stamplorations that hadn't been used yet, so that was perfect for me!
I'm also linking this up to Stamplorations never ending anything goes challenge found HERE!
Hello! The December challenge over at Jaded Blossom, besides using JB products.... use red and green.
Here is the card I created:
Hello! Apparently yesterday, December 15th, was National tea day. The coffee loving cardmakers are having a link up blog hop with a prize and guest designer winner. How fun!
I created this card using a new to me stamp set from Gerda Steiner, stitched die cuts by Avery Elle and stitched tag from Tsol. Little lemons from Twidlers Nook.
I didn't know it was National Hot Cocoa day until this morning when I saw The Coffee loving cardmakers are celebrating with a hop! Inspiration and a chance to win a prize AND a chance to win a guest desiger spot; all fun things.
I'm still trying to crank out some Christmas cards so ... tonight's card is a Christmas cocoa card. 😊

This is my final card. Thanks to everyone who participated.

I have a shaker card to share this time:
I used some Recollections Christmas patterned paper from my stash to make this. The scalloped frame is from Jaded Blossom. I tried this shaker using a clear envelope. I didn't execute it very well, but... just don't look to closely at it. Lol. To see it in action, check out my IG: vanessacardmaker 😊
The week is going by fast at the coffee loving cardmakers fall/winter blog hop.
Linking up this card this morning as I drink my coffee ☕ 🙃
I just got this set in the mail from Stamplorations and couldn'twait to ink it up. I was a lucky subscriber winner for October and won a gc and this is one set I chose. The word die is also stamplorations that I've had in my stash. The striped background I created using a Honeybee stamps stencil. It's all watercolored.
Linking up card number 12... I'm going to break my hop record this time. I might have already, I think. Lol. Fall/winter coffee loving cardmakers blog hop:
