I needed a sympathy card for a friend who's mother passed away last week. The simplicity of the sketch and the beautiful "Peaceful Wildflowers" stamp set and matching dies made this card very special.

Share the Joy #9



This is the first time I have been able to enter the TE challenge. I especially love my TE Christmas stamps and die cuts. When I first saw the sketch, I thought of a wreath. Of course, since we have been involved in remodeling, I can't find my wreath stamps and dies, so I made this card instead. We relocated to FL this year, so I want my Christmas Cards to be very special for our family since we can't spend the holidays with them. I think this one really fits the "special" card, don't you?

I have really had a hard time getting myself together to finish my cards on time. Hopefully, now that my craft area is just about finished and my storage is organized, I will be able to concentrate on the creative side. I love the tall and skinny cards. The simplicity of this sketch lent itself to a sophisticated Christmas card. I hope the recipient likes it.

I am in love with these elves. They make me smile! I colored this cutie with copics, added some "twinkling clouds" flocking from Sparkle n Sprinkle and a little glitter from the same company. I paper pieced the tree with some papers from MFT Stamps. I love how they turned out. Did you know that they have a chart which allows me to match my papers to copic colors. Makes me really look good!

My new elves arrived from MFT Stamps yesterday and I just couldn't wait to cut the out, stamp and color. I colored him with copics and used "Twinkling Clouds" flocking from Sparkle n Sprinkle on his hat to make it look like fur! I just love this look. Christmas card making is underway!

This card was definitely inspired by one of the design team. Since moving to FL, I like my Christmas cards to have a "warm" feel. I used the greeting from on of last year's sets. I think a toast to "Christmas Cheer" is most appropriate, don't you?

I'm really growing to love the tall and skinny sketches. They challenge me to really choose my elements carefully. I looked at my sentiments for one I had not used, and this one spoke to me. We have had a lot of rain here in FL lately and I have had friends who have had a lot of problems, so I thought this would be the perfect sentiment. I looked through my patterned paper and thought this Authentique  collection really fit. Hope whoever is the recipient enjoys a Sunshiny Day!
