A 2 Card Saturday


 Card #1...2 challenges inspired today's 1st card...

Jingle Bells // #JB2504 ...A year-round Christmas challenge with a theme!!  The theme for this current challenge is "a see-through element"!!  I used snowflake printed vellum for my see through element and created a shaker card using Stampin Up's Christmas Tree die from their Winter Woods bundle.

ABC Christmas // FEB25 ...A monthly Christmas challenge that follows the alphabet!!  C is for CUTE & D is for DIE CUTS.  I used this cute little mouse (from Colorado Craft Company) that is super excited for Christmas to roll back around, and a Christmas tree die cute to create my shaker card.

So sorry that my Merry Christmas sentiment in gold doesn't show up that great in my photo...to much reflecting off that glossy golden sentiment...in real life it looks great!!



Card #2...Inspired by one challenge...   

                                 
...A sketch challenge!!  I was having fun playing with my new stamps (Terrific Toadstools) from Stamping Up and ended up making this card using just one challenge.  I I kept seeing cards made with these stamps and just had to have them but I have been struggling using them...I'll keep working at it!!
Update: 
Thanks to the Atlantic Hearts design team for the shout out on my mushroom card!!  What an honor to be chosen as on of the "top 3" for this sketch challenge!!

  2. A Christmas Tree shaker is absolutely brilliant ... you get to decorate the tree differently every time you move it around ... thrilled you shared your CLEAR-ly fabulous creation with us at Jingle Belles.
