Poinsettia Trio

Mar 282013

Each month Splitcoaststampers hosts a Christmas Card Challenge in the Fan Club Forum. I decided to play along for the month of March. Hopefully this will get me going again with some creations for this year’s cards.

It is so nice to have a collection of Christmas cards all ready to go once the holiday season arrives.

Card 1:

Stickles was added to all of the flowers’ centers for some sparkle.

Card 2:

Here’s some faux stitching just for fun.

Card 3:

A little bit of the image was cut out to give that out-of-the-box look.

If you are a member of the Fan Club over at Splitcoaststampers, come join the fun and get those Christmas cards started!

Happy Crafting!

PDCC172 - Bordering on Romance

Mar 122013

Today’s card is for this week’s Play Date Cafe Color Challenge #172. Gotta love these cute little guys!

The stamped image appears to have three different flower types, so I snuck in a little yellow which wasn’t one of the required colors.

It was colored with Copics.

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Crafting!
