Triple stamped thank you

My card tonight is made with a technique that I've never done before... triple time stamping.  And I must confess, the final project is not my first attempt.  I've been working on this for a few days, and there are a couple of tries that sadly ended up in the trash can. :/   But I persevered and have something to show you.  :)

I cut my Neenah Classic Crest cardstock in the shapes I wanted, then stamped the flower which is from Stampabilities and colored with my Spectrum Noir markers.  The sentiment is Paper Trey Ink.   I added a few buttons to the flowers and here it is!

Challenges...
Clear It Out - thank you + buttons *these are from the first pkg of buttons I ever bought!!!  How's that for using my stash??? :)
Technique Time Tuesday - triple time stamping
Paper Pretties PWC292 - buttons
Little Scrap Pieces - Fun Friday Linky Party

Christmas Bluejay

We are down to only  74 days until Christmas!!  :-O  So I made a Christmas card today.  :-)  I've been trying to get back into my craft room but have had company ever since I got back from my trip, so that took precedence!   I've had several digis printed for quite awhile and decided to make a card from this Doodle Pantry image...
