Stamp Something Challenge

Over at "Stamp Something" the challenge this week is "Black Friday", you'll have to read all about it to understand it? Anyway I have just bought these beautiful stamps by "Inkadinkado" so thought that they fit the bill beautifully. Unfortunately I am having problems with my camera so you can't see the glitter effect on the snowflake trail left by the two characters. The small card is 5x5 inches, and I have used silver mirri board behind a square of "Swiss dots" on the "Cuttlebug", then another 3.5 x3.5 square of mirri with the reindeer matted on top. Then a swirl painted white and sprinkled with silver glitter a piece of white ribbon from the stash.
The larger card is done in almost the same way but using the "Snowflake" embossing folder on the cuttlebug, and the white ribbon has a bow tied in it.

Do you know???

I have just been taking a quick look at the challenge blogs out there, one I do like to visit is the "Cuttlebug Challenge" you can get loads of ideas from there! As you are no doubt aware I love my cuttlebug, it must be the best investment in crafting goodies I have made so far! So why not take a quick look over at their site http://cuttlebugchallenge.blogspot.com/. or click on the link on my "blogs that challenge" list.
Go on you know you want to!!!

It's Christmas!!!

Hi Everyone,
Phew what a day!!!!! I have spent all afternoon baking my Christmas cakes, and making ginger bread cookies, (there where quite a few but my son and I have eaten almost all of them, then I wonder why I can't loose weight!!!) Anyway just managed to have a little play at card making whilst the cakes are in the oven. I love these Penny Black stamps, they are sooo easy to colour, and the frames are embossed on the cuttlebug, really easy and quick!!! Love them!!!
