Non traditional

 Hello!! I received new goodies from Jaded Blossom Stamps today and I hadn't yet participated in their monthly challenge for December yet, so.... tonight was the perfect night to do it. Non Traditional Christmas Colors......



Snowgnome!? I couldn't resist.

WBW

Hello! I'm here participating in Wood Block Wednesday 


Today I chose to use this boxer dog wood stamp I have from Stamp Gallery. I am a Boxer owner and love all things Boxer dog ❤️😊




Also, since I'm guest designing for A Colorful Life Designs this month, I used one of their stencils for this card: Marvelous masked deckled rectangle.

It's a set of different sizes and comes with the masking insides to create borders, layers, etc. It's pretty handy and awesome to have in your stash. Here I used one on my card front panel, and ink blended crushed olive and peeled paint oxide inks together. The deckled border isn't a harsh straight line... I love how it turned out. Originally I was just going to stamp black and white on top of it and that's it, but then I decided to color and cut the dog out...... 

Word die cuts are The Stamps of Life and the christmss lights die is from a Momenta set.

A Colorful Life

Hello! Happy December 1st. I'm excited to be a guest designer for A Colorful Life Designs -all month long. 

I've had so much fun playing with their stencils. 

I thought I'd start the month off with a Christmas card. Tis the Season! If you're not currently working on or finished with your cards, you better get to it 😁 

I just love this palm tree stencil. It's big: 6x9! It can be used on many different sized cards. This is a 5x7.



I ink smooshed with oxide ink and water first, let dry, and then stenciled onto it with a darker green. It made the perfect background for this beach loving Santa (stamp set by Art Impressions).

You can get this stencil HERE.

My card tonight is using stamps from Miss Ink Stamps plus a tiny coffee cup from my stash. The wood panels are honeybee stamps dies. I'm not very good at coloring, but... it's still cute, I hope. I love the goat set. They're the cutest!!
