Christmas Card Blog Hop Dec 3 and 4

Today is the first day of our two day blog hop featuring "Christmas Cards"being hosted by the very talented Nicolette of Beyond Scrappin'. If you would like to join us please stop by the Beyond Scrapppin' and if you came from our fabulous Gill of Creations by Gill. I have used a Penny Black Poinsettia stamp that I stamped on a piece of the We R Memory Paper and colored in with my Copic Marker. I used the We R Memory Keepers White Christma 6 x 6 paper pak to make my card with. I used the Penny Black stamp in three different ways, I will by sharing one card today and the other two tomorrow so make sure to come back and visit and you will see poinsettia in nontraditional colors.
It is always a good thing to place a journal block or away of writing on dark paper and this is what I did to the inside of my dark green card base. I hope you continuing along with our hop and go to Susan's It Me Susan P Blog and make sure to stop back by tomorrow. Hugs Pam

Happy Thanksgiving

Lovin' the new We R Making Memory Maple Grove collection. So easy to make a card, layout, book, etc. I made this fabulous card to send out using the collection. I made this 5 1/2" x 5 1/2" card in a matter of minutes. The center is a die cut from the collection and the band from the card base scraps. The die cut is very nicely embossed and has such great dimension to it. I place it on pop dots and added some Frosted Lace Stickles on the edges of the band and around the scallops. Gave it a finishing touch with a small blue and brown plaid bow.

PageMaps 2 Sketch Challenge

I haven't done any of the PageMap sketch challenges so I thought I would try it with this sketch. Just love the sketch and knew as soon as I saw it what my interpretation of it would be.

Look at all the fabulous details on this sketch, how could you not fall in love with it, with them. I am planning on doing another challenge that I will post later on this week. If you haven't had a chance to visit PageMaps you should run right over there and check it out and try doing one of the sketches.
I found this cute poem online by just typing into my search engine Coloring Eggs poem and this was the first one that popped up. I read it and of course thought perfect. It said just what I wanted my journaling to say.

Do you see all of the stitch lines, they are from We R Memory Keepers latest tool, the Easy Sew. Love it and super easy to use. Gives great detail to a page when you don't have your sewing machine with you.

My letters are from the Dragonfly Quickutz Alphabet. My papers are all from the Rusty Pickle White Chocolate Bunnies Collection.
