MFT Sketch 52

When I opened my inbox this morning there was a cute little sketch from My Favorite Things, and being 'Christmas Holidays' I thought I would take 10 and make a quick card for the challenge...

I've used some scrumptious Websters Winter Celebration papers, some Stampin' Up! pom-pom ribbon (retired?) and stamped an image from Just Rite Stamps Breath of Spring (retired?) and the sentiment is from one of the MFT Pure Innocence sets You Color My World I've added some twine and some 3d foam for some extra colour (as if there was not enough!) and dimension. Colouring with Copics. :)





Here's that sketch I was telling you about... play along if you get a chance!






Bye for now,

jolly

I've been enjoying my holidays so far, late nights allowed so I've been getting some scrapbooking done. These pics are from Christmas 2009 so I'm so happy to finally have these done. Will add a little journalling later for my two bears.

Here's my layout featuring a tonne of Crate Paper (Peppermint Collection) and a little Christmas joy thrown in. ;)



I get my bakers twine from Ribbon's Galore... lovely, lovely twine...



I've recently discovered a wonderful product called (Suze Weinberg's) Ultra Thick Embossing Enamel (aka UTEE), and it's joy!  I am delving deeper into the world of Ranger products it seems, that's for sure. This powder melts so thick and glossy - it really is a stand out feature on your projects. So I went to town as you can see, making my own patterned paper by stamping this Darkroom Door background stamp all over my Bazzill cardstock...




... and made some embellishments using my Silhouette SD, Collections chipboard stars and Stampin' Up! All-Purpose-Ink (74 Champagne Mist) ... alpha's from American Crafts.





Ingredients:




Wishing all my lovely readers a very Merry Christmas, and a safe and happy New Year!

Blah Blah Blah
