Merry Christmas!! - TMS #637

 Happy Tuesday to you!  It's time for Tuesday Morning Sketches!  First, I want to wish you a...


It's time for our Annual Anything Goes Challenge.  That means anything goes!  No sketch this week.  We want you to share any crafty creation that you'd like to share.   I made some gift tags...





I've had a 12 x 12 pad called "Happy Hootin' Holidays" from the Paper Studio for a few years.  It has a couple of pages of stickers, so I used them along with sentiments from Sweet n Sassy Stamps, Momenta, and Clear Dollar Stamps.  I used a Concord & 9th branch die, some Nuvo drops, a GIna K stencil, and ribbon and twine from my stash.  [I do just have to say, "Grrrrrrr!"  Kraft is hard to get a good pic of! :/ ]

No sketch to share.  Just an invitation for you to come play along with us!!  **Just a note to add that this challenge lasts for 2 weeks, so you have until 8 PM EST on January 2, 2022 to enter. 

Thanks for stopping by!  Be sure to go check out the creations from the TMS DT...

Someone cares - TMS #636

 Happy Tuesday to you!  It's time for Tuesday Morning Sketches!  

2020 was quite a year.  2021 was not much better in many ways.  God is still good and in control, but it's hard for us to remember that sometimes.  We've had many friends go through tough times, and this is for a friend who recently was diagnosed with cancer. 


This paper was in my scrap box.  It's double sided, so I used both sides.  This wonderful digital sentiment was on a sheet already printed out.  My laptop with all my digital stamps on it died earlier this year, so I'm not sure who this is from.  (Thankfully, I did back up my digis on a USB drive.  Now to find it...!) Everything was cut out with Unbranded Scalloped Stitched Rectangles from Cheapo Dies.  I didn't have any brown adhesive dots, so colored these with my Spectrum Noir markers. 

Here's our sketch...

Embossed Christmas - TMS #635

 Happy Tuesday to you!  It's time for Tuesday Morning Sketches!  I'm not sure how many Christmas cards I'll actually mail out this year, but I'm still making them. :)


This is a simple Kraft panel cut with Kat Scrappiness Wonky Stitched Rectangles, a piece from my scrap box embossed with Darice Snowflake Swirl (I LOVE what dry embossing does to patterned paper!), my sentiment is from Raisin Boat Holiday Wishes and cut with Spellbinders Standard Circles, and some baker's twine from my stash finished it off. Easy peasy!

Here's our sketch...

2-for-1 MERRY Christmas - SCC #131

 It's December and Christmas is only 24 days away!!  But today is the start of our December challenge at Sparkles Christmas Challenges!  This month our theme is "non-traditional colours."  

I am a very red/green for Christmas kind of girl, but I do like to see the non-traditional, too.  Here's my card...


This panel had been stamped and white heat embossed with trees from MFT Oh Christmas Trees.  I cut out "Merry" and put a silver piece of paper behind.  The "Christmas" is from a "Happy Christmas" die that came free with an order several years ago.  

Then I took the cut out letters and made a second card.  It seemed a bit bare, so I added a few adhesive dots...

Please come over and play along with us at Sparkles Christmas Challenge and share your favorite non-traditional colored card! 

Thanks for stopping by and have a blessed day!!
