All That Scraps Oldies but Goodies

Hi there. Today at All That Scraps we are featuring some "Oldie but Goodies" stamps.
And for my card, I have Swiss Pixie Cupcake Birgitta
 I made this card a few months ago and this stamp was released March 2011. This is one of the first stamps I had and one of my favorites from the CC Design stamp line.


Thanks for visiting my blog today. 
 I will be back a little bit later for my Tilda's Town DT card.

Hugs!

Tilda in Red

Hi there! I have a card that I managed to finish while waiting for my son to finish writing his research report. The image is from the Little Christmas Collection.  And I colored the image with my Copic Sketch Markers. I used a red Magnolia Christmas paper and a handful of dies for my embellishments. I also used Diamond Stickles and acrylic paint for the snow effect on the trees.



Challenges:
Anything Goes Challenge: Early Christmas
Crafy Cardmakers: Winged Things
Crafty Catz: Christmas
Stampin' for the Weekend: Starting Christmas Early

Hugs!

Tilda's Town: Autumn Scene

We have new challenge theme at Tilda's Town today. This week, our theme is:


Fall/Autumn is my favorite time of the year. The leaves turn into an array of gorgeous colors and the heat of summer dies down. My card today features Tilda with broom from the Turning Leaves Collection.

For the last 2 weeks, I have been playing with Copics and set aside my DIs for a while because of an accident...well, I spilled water on my table and I messed up some papers. Ugh!  LOL 

Anywhooo, you might have noticed Tilda's hair. This is my first time to color hair this way.  And I know I need alot more practice to get it right.  But for now, I'm good with this one. :)




For more inspiration for your Autumn Scene, pop over Tilda's Town to see my teammates creations.
