Silver Wishes


Welcome to the last day of the old year and the eve of a brand new year!!

This past week has been busy, and I have not had a lot of play time in my craft room, but I do have one last card to share with you this year!!
 

 
This is the exquisite "Silver Fairy" image from Whimsy Stamps artist Sylvia Zet of Wee Stamps.  The image is colored with Copics, fussy cut and mounted on paper from Echo Park's Winter Wishes collection.  The edges of the dp are embossed with a white glitter powder, while the background is enhanced with both a Memory box and an exclusive Simon Says die, cut from metallic silver foil.  The sentiment is from Whimsy Stamps, and the wings are covered with the cool highlight glitter from Glitter Ritz.

Bring on the Bubbly!!!

This is my second post for today, so if you are looking for my One Crazy Stamper post, please scroll down.
 
Today is sadly my last post as one of the guest designers at Loves Rubberstamps.  I have had a great time participating with all of the lovely ladies on the design team, and thank them for inviting me to join them for the month.  For the last challenge the theme is New Year Celebrations.
 
 
 I colored up this cute Stamping Bella "Madison has a Margarite" Uptown girl image with my Copics, then matted her, and placed her on my card background that uses dp from Echo Park Paper Company's Winter Wishes collection.  The bubbly die is from Memory Box, and the pearls were made with a Viva Decor Pearl pen.  Ribbon and sentiment are from my stash.

Glory!!!

Merry Christmas everyone!!! I hope that today finds you healthy, happy and surrounded by those you love!!
For today's post for One Crazy Stamper, I have once again combined both challenge themes of Sue's great sketch, and a Holiday themed project, to make this wonderful card celebrating the special meaning of today's holiday!

This sweet Whimsy stamp image is called "Christmas Choir Boy" and I've colored him and his singing companions with Copics. The dp is from Authentique's Festive collection, the treble clef is a Memory Box die, and the sentiment is from Whimsy stamps Holiday Notables 1.

Attitude Anyone?

 I am trying to STOP making Christmas themed cards, and having a really hard time not reaching for those adorable holiday stamps, so I thought I'd have a go at something different.  How about a sweet little girl with a lot of attitude!!
 

 
For the mom's out there, I am sure that this image sparks many memories of our own daughters giving us the attitude!!!  This is "Talk to the Bear" by Mo Manning for Stamping Bella, colored with Copics, then matted and mounted on dp from the Love Letters collection by Bo Bunny.

Winona Loves Winter....

....she really, really does, because who else would you see tobogganing while wearing skates.  When I spotted this cutie at the lss i just had to have it, and I knew exactly the paper I wanted to use. 
 
 
The dp is from Little Yellow Bicycle's Winterings collection, that has so many gorgeous papers in it, that you are sure to be seeing it pop up a couple more times in my cards.  Winona Loves Winter is from Stamping Bella and I have colored her with Copic Sketch Markers.  The die embellishments are the new Snowflake Border from Whimsy Stamps, and two exclusive dies from Simon Says Stamps - The Faceted Snowflake and the Curvy Snowflake which are made by Memory Box.
