Bring on the Merry

 


6 challenges inspired today's card...

Freshly Made Sketches // #FMS761 ...A sketch challenge!!  An oval and some snowflakes...Yes, please!!  A great sketch for bringing this challenges together!!

Color Hues // #TCH144 ...A color challenge!!  Red and green are the colors called for in this current challenge.  I used Stampin Up's Poppy Parade designer paper for my back ground and then colored my little owl's sweater with green and red markers.

Inspired.Create.Challenge // #ICC228 ...A theme challenge!!  CHRISTMAS CARD is the theme for this current challenge!!  Bring on the Merry!!

We Love Stamping // NOV2026 ...A monthly stamping challenge with a theme!!  The theme for the month of November is Christmas Critter!!  This stamped this little owl using a "builder" set of stamps from Stampendous called Woodsy Stack.  My sentiment was stamped using a Newton's Nook sentiment.

Jingle Belles // #JB2623 ...A "holiday leftovers" challenge!!  My leftovers on this card are the snowflakes.  I have a plate die that cuts out a 5x6 set of snowflakes...I use what I need and then put the leftovers in a little storage box.  My leftover box of snowflakes has an array of colors in different sizes...I picked out some silver ones for today's card.

Make My Monday // #MMM290 ...A theme challenge!!  The theme for this current challenge is WINTER ANIMALS!!  I have my little winter owl all cozy in his Christmas sweater!!  Bring on the Merry!!
