Christmas Music Card

Today mom & I spent the afternoon scrapbooking/card making. I made this card and almost completed another card before supper.

All the patterned papers came from Authentique's Collection: Festive 6 x 6 Bundle Paper Pack and the cardstock is Bazzill. Due to the flood, mom & I don't have our Bazzill swatch book to know which brown cardstock I used.

The buttons, twine & wraphia is from my stash, the beads are from Unique Crafts on Prospect Avenue and I used an EK Success border punch on the inside.

I used CTMH's Christmas Love & Sweet Music stamp sets with CTMH Black Ink. To distress the edges I used CTMH Holiday Red & Olive inks.

Don't forget about our....

Candy Cane Kisses & Gingerbread Hugs

This card is a little late but it was for Sparkles Christmas Card Challenge. The challenge was to use a punch! 

For this card I used a corner punch, nestablities, Red Devil Bazzill, Everybody Loves Christmas paper from Bella Road, Tangerine Tango ink from Stampin' Up, sentiment stamp from Penny Black, C.C. Design's Santa Emma and bench, finally to colour my stamps I used the Copic Markers: 100, 110, R000, R29, E37, and Gold.

One Inch Music Card

 This card is for my  friend. We were trying to make the smallest card. 

I won the smallest but my friend won the prettiest because she had glitter. BLING! BLING! 

I used black and white paper and the Fiskar's music note hand punch. 

Not much for a little card.

Thank You Cheerleading Coaches!

These are the Thank You cards that I made for my Cheerleading Coaches. They showed us so much and helped us get 5th place, 3rd place, 2nd place, and 3rd place at the four competitions that happened here in Thunder Bay.

The choice of colours was easy RED, GOLD and WHITE. They are my cheerleading coaches school colours.

I used the Bella Cheerleader, the Greeting Farm's Cheerleader, and the Sugar Nellie Cheerleader; which I coloured with Copic markers to make them look like each of my coaches. Hair: Katelyn - E42,W0 Jen - N10 Madyson - E47, E44, E43 Clothes: R27, Gold Skin: E000. 

I cut out the letters for " 3 CHEERS 4 KATELYN" with the Varsity Letter Cricut Cartridge. Finally the paper I used was Curry Spice Bazzill and Bo Bunny Double Dot.
