To thank everyone for their continued support of Whimsy Stamps, the Whimsy design team are holding a fun Christmas event over on the Whimsy Stamps Blog in the run up to Christmas!
Every day from 1st to 24th December, a member of the design team will be sharing a brand new Whimsy holiday creation. Included in the daily posts will be a LETTER.  Visit the Whimsy Stamps Blog every day, make a note of each letter and keep them safe.  Once you have collected all 24 letters, you should be able to unscramble them and make a 4 word phrase.  Email your phrase to whimsystampscontests@gmail.com by 31st December 2013, and if you've guessed correctly, you will be entered into the draw to win a fantastic GRAND PRIZE!
But that's not all!  There will also be some fun SPOT PRIZES throughout the entire event.  The prizes could be hidden over on the Whimsy Stamps Blog or on any of the design team member's blogs, so be sure to leave a comment on the Whimsy Stamps Blog  and here on my blog post for a chance to win!

Christmas at Paper Crafting Journey

Are You Ready My Friend (3)

This is a sad post for me as it’s my last challenge with the girls at Paper Crafting Journey. I have been on the team for a long time now and will miss the girls and boss lady Wendy so much but I think as 2013 draws to a close it’s my time to move on to pastures new…..anyhoo enough waffle here is my card for the last challenge of the year which is

Christmas

Are You Ready My Friend (5)

This time of year when I realise that (despite starting back in August) I don’t have enough Christmas cards it’s time to keep things simple. Clean layout, quick colouring, a single embellishment and DPs that double as the sentiment are what I like.

Supplies:

  • Image: The Paper Shelter
  • Colouring Medium: ProMarkers
  • DP:  These were scraps but I think it’s an old DCWV stack
  • Card: Joanna Sheen Elegance Ice White 300gsm and bottle green card from my stash
  • Dies & Punches: Kars starburst punch
  • Embellishments: Felt snowflake, glitter border, a pearl and doodling

Another Snowman

Rick St Dennis Winter Friends (6) 

This is a card made with Rick St Dennis digi. I have sparkled up the star and my blue frame is pearlescent too so I would like to add this to the Sparkle challenge at Less is More

Rick St Dennis Winter Friends (4)

Image is stunning so went CAS on the rest of the card

It doesn’t show well but I printed the image twice and on the top layer cut away the sky to add depth to the frame of the image (hope that makes sense).

Andy with Snowman

Andy with Snowman (2) 

Good Evening. We’ve had a busy weekend doing DIY and things but we managed to get the tree up today and will finish decorating it tomorrow. Made some mulled wine too so getting well and truly in the Christmas spirit…lol.

So, the children are in bed, I’ve had a nice warm bath and I’ve put my feet up to watch the Strictly and X-Factor results so I thought I would share this over on Gems of Inspiration and it uses Andy with Snowman
