CCC Challenge #52 Christmas

Hello!
I hope everyone has had a great start to the weekend.
We have a new challenge starting over at
The theme is one of my favorites, "Christmas".
And it'll be here before we know it!

Anyway,  here's my card for the challenge.


I love this cute image called "I Love Christmas"
from our sponsor this time around
Ppinkydolls.


I colored the image with pencil colors before fussy cutting
and popped with foam dots on a die cut circle. The
banner was embossed with a Darice embossing folder and the
sentiment tag was die cut.

I hope you'll check out all the inspiration the rest of the DT
has to offer and then join in the challenge.
We can't wait to see what you come up with at
Creative Craft Cottage!

Thanks for taking a look!

This card was created using a digital stamp set called "The Big Guy" released last month at




I colored the image with Spectrum Noir markers and
added some stickles for a little bit of sparkle.
The papers are from DCWV.  I popped some of the
flowers with foam dots and added the gems.

Give Thanks

This week the DTBST challenge at
is to show us your projects with the theme of
"Giving Thanks".


I used "Rapunzel Sassy" for a card.
She was colored with Spectrum Noir markers & gel pens,
fussy cut and popped with foam tape on the Spellbinders die cut.
The sentiment was computer generated. I used 2 different
Paper Artist die cuts for an accent to the sentiment and corners.
I finished up with some white pearls.

Pop over to
Sassy Studio Designs
and share your Giving Thanks projects with us!
