ATS Challenge - Paper Piecing

Im not a huge fan of paper piecing, mainly because Im not so great with cutting things out, though I do enjoy the look when I see other peoples creation who have done it.
So when I saw this challenge's theme over at ATS I didn't think I was going to play along, and then suddenly today I decided to got for it.
While it may be a bit early for me to start christmas cards, I wanted to use an actual stamp (not a digi) and I have a limited collection, but this little snowman seemed to jump out at me.
here is what I came up with.























Ingredients;
Stamps: CC Designs
DP: Echo Park (seasons greetings)
CS: CC Designs
Medium: Copic & Prisma Colour Markers
Other: Elmers Glitter Glue & Glossy Accents

Simon Says Anything Goes

I finally got a chance to play along with the Simon Says Stamp weekly blog challenge, this weeks them anything goes.
I felt like doing something fun and summery, and I realised that I bought the Echo Park "Splash" 6x6 when it was still wintery outside, so I never got a chance to use it.
So I grabbed those papers along with a super cute digi from the All That Scraps Store and this is qhat I came up with.
























Ingredients:
Digi Image: CC Designs
DP: Echo Park
CS: CC Desings
Rubons: Dollarama
Medium: Copics & Prisma Colour Markers
Extras: Elmers Glitter Glue

Returned from a long hiatus

Wow, talk about a hiatus. Over the last few months I have been run off my feet at work, had computer problems, took an extended vacation at a friends cottage, and then was run off my feet at work again when I returned.

It feels like its been forever since I have made a card, and even long since I have posted one.... but here is a quick birthday card I threw together from a Stamp Fairy World image.
