CAS Christmas Card

Hello!  Thanks for visiting me today.

Last weekend was World Card Making Day.

 I colored the beautiful and sweet image on

my card below that day, but didn't get the 

card finished until Wednesday.  

I very seldom make CAS or one layer cards, but

felt a calling on this one to give it a go.  The main image 

is from Santa Paws and the sentiment is from 

Holiday Wishes (both by Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps).  

  

A big bold sentiment and a colored main image = viola!

I really love how it turned out.  Hope you do too.

I'm entering this card in the following challenges:

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenges - CHRISTMAS (10/9/19)

Winter Wonderland Challenge - Merry and Bright

Addicted to Stamps and More! Challenge #362 "Make Your Mark"

Try it on Tuesday - Animal Magic

I also sent this in to Scrapbook and Cards Today for the WCMD 

 4:00 pm Challenge  - CAS.  

Thanks for sharing with me today! Have a lovely weekend. D 

Inspirational Wednesday - Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps - Cuddles the Puppy

Happy Wednesday everyone!

Wednesdays are my second favorite day of the week

(right after Saturday!) and they are always 

special at KRAFTIN' KIMMIE CHALLENGES

because the DT gets to select a stamp set to

showcase and inspire you.  What's

even more fantastic than that is that Kimmie

then puts that stamp set on SALE!  Whoop whoop!

Today it's my turn to be your inspirational enabler

and I chose the Uber Adorable CUDDLES THE PUPPY.

Cuddles The Puppy is such a perfect and fun set for 

the dog/puppy lovers in your life.  Recently several

families I know have gotten new puppies so I thought

I'd make them a card to help them celebrate.
It's the furry version of a New Baby card.

So now that I've shared - here comes the really
big enabler part... You can get this set in the
Krafty Kimmie Shop this week ON SALE for 40% OFF!
Sale ends next Tuesday at midnight so be quick - hehe! 

Kraftin' Kimmie Challenges #468 - Animals

Hello crafty friends, hope you are well today!

We have a new theme challenge starting today at

KRAFTIN' KIMMIE STAMPS.

Challenge #468 is ANIMALS.

I made a Galentine for my Bestie using the newly
released CUDDLES THE PUPPY stamp set. 

The stenciled background is created 

w/the new PAWPRINTS STENCIL

and the Pretty in Pink and Marvellous Mocha

hybrid inks.  There's even a few of the LOVEY DOTS

(enamel dots) on there too.  I guess you could

say its a clean and layered style card.  Simple

yet sweet - don't you agree?! 

I'm also entering these great challenges:

Sweet Stampin' Challenge Blog - Love Your Pet

Jo's Scrap Shack - Fun Friday Challenges FFC #269 - Anything Goes

Through the Purple Haze Challenge #153 - Puppy Love

Words 2 Craft By - W2CB #62 - Best Friends

Thanks so much for visiting me today! 

Hugs! D

Catch the Bug Challenges - Oldie but Goodie

Hello friends and followers - happy Thursday!

On Thursdays at Catch the Bug Challenges we

feature some of the wonderful Bugaboo digital stamps

from the Oldie but Goodie category (really that just means

not brand spankin' new but still soooo good and fun to use).

Since this is the month for love, I'm sharing a valentines 

card that I made for my son using a really fun image 

called BUGPUPHEARTS01.

I don't typically make many valentine's cards - 

really just for my family.  I know they enjoy receiving

a handmade card.  Both of my kids save theirs -

makes my heart happy :o).

I used two things that I don't use very often on this card

buttons and twine.  Not sure why...I think I just forget :o)

Don't really need to add much when you have an image 

that is this adorable.  The inside says

"I Freakin' LOVE You".   And I really do :o) 

I'd like to enter this in the following challenges:

Come and Get it Challenges - Love is in the Air"

The Corrosive Challenge Blog Challenge #2 - Love, Love, Love

Creative Card Crew #106 - LOVE

Addicted to Stamps and More! #181 - Anything Goes

Thanks so much for stopping in to visit me today!

Til next time...hugs and happy crafting! D
