Cheers! 12 Months of Christmas LinkUp

 A new challenge at 12MoC Link Up.  The Sleigh Belles are posting our cards today and then mid month it will be the turn of the Merry Maidens.  The theme is Cheers! and our sponsor is Bugaboo Stamps.

If you want the chance to win this month's featured paper pack, then you need to feature a BEVERAGE you might drink during the HOLIDAYS as the focus of your card. For ex., eggnog, mulled wine, hot toddy, wassail, hot buttered rum, brandy Alexander, Christmas punch, hot cocoa, etc.
  
Keep in mind though, that you don't need to follow the twist to link up your cards and earn a free paper each month or for a chance to win a $12 gift certificate from this month's sponsor, Bugaboo Stamps. You simply need to follow the twist if you'd like a chance to win this month's featured digital paper pack, Cheers! Christmas Edition. 

My Card 

It uses the image  Snowman Cocoa from our sponsor Bugaboo

and also two papers from DDDoodles Geometric Man

Why not pop over to the blog and check out the cards from the other Sleigh belles and join in our challenge.  It's a great way to get a head start on your festive cards so you don't have a mad panic at the end of the year.

Take care and have a good day.

 

 

 

Snowmen and Snow at Winter Wonderland

Good morning.  We have a new challenge at Winter Wonderland today and the theme is Snowmen and Snow.  Our fabulous sponsor is Bugaboo Digi Stamps and the DT are all using Jodie's images from Bugaboo.

My Card

Recipe 

DL base card  made from Crafter's Companion black card stock

red card stock  from stash

image - Snowman Block - Bugaboo

Falling Snow e/f - Sue Wilson

Promarkers to colour

I decided to rearrange my snowmen from their original square block to a column so that I could make a DL card. I embossed the left side of the white card. Initially my idea was to arrange die cut snowflakes down this side but I liked it as it was so thought I would leave it very CAS. This is very different for me but I really like the effect.

Please hop over to the blog and see what my teamies have come up with for this challenge and maybe you will be inspired to join in with us - but please remember we are a Christmas blog so your project must be Christmas/holiday themed.

The weekend is almost upon us so I hope you have a great weekend, especially if you have any plans.

Take care.

Humour for Christmas Card Club

Good morning and I hope you are all well.  I can see a little sunshine this morning which makes a nice change. I totally forgot to do this post even though my card has been ready for a few days.  Ah well, better late than never.  This is our last challenge this year and Rachel chose humour

My Card

This is a small A6 card using an image from Bugaboo "JJ Cheers".  The backing paper was made digitally and I added the cocktail glasses. The sentiment is computer generated.

A very quick post but I have a lot to do today so I will just crack on.

Take care and have a good day.

Don't Be Square

Good morning. Hope this finds you all well and ready for another Bank Holiday weekend. I somehow don't feel we will be quite so lucky with the weather this time.

It's time for a new challenge at Winter Wonderland where the theme, chosen by me, is "Don't Be Square" so we want to see any square cards.  It will be interesting to see what shapes you come up with

Our sponsor this month is Bugaboo Stamps. The prize on offer is $12  to spend in store.

Promarkers

 Tonic Nuvo Drops

I really love the shape of this die and I cannot understand why I don't use it more often.  Maybe it will be making another appearance before too long. The image I used didn't need too much doing to it.  I coloured a few of the baubles and then just added lashings of glitter in the same colours as the Promarkers used.

Why not pop over to the blog and see work of the DT and maybe you will be inspired to join us in he challenge.  Do remember that we are a Christmas challenge only.

Well that's all from me today.

Take care and happy crafting.
