Floating Santa

Here's a funny guy - lol.  When I saw Chris used this as her post at Card a Day Blog, I decided I had to share my version of it here and there too.
I made this for a challenge at Visual Designs by Chris.  I used Chris' cutter file...CD00882 - Floating Santa, the free card template file for the challenge by AuzzeiCaz, and the Ho Ho Ho is from Sam and Hailey Designs file (also at Visual Designs by Chris)... JB00059 - Frame-a-Page Christmas Morning.  I don't remember who makes the striped paper and the rest is probably Bazzil cardstock.  I think Santa is so cute in this file.  I'm giving this card to our Youth Minister and family...they will love Santa's silly looks:).

Thanks for looking and come over to Card a Day Blog and join the fun!!!

Oh - and this is my entry for Christmas and Children.

Merry Chris-Moose

I made this a couple of weeks ago when I was making cards for a challenge at Paperthreads and for the Card a Day blog challenge.  I made several at the same time and decided to not use this one on the Card a Day blog. But now this month the challenge is to go back and do any of the themes, so this one fits the Christmas and Animals theme from 2 months ago:).   I hope to make a few more to post before the end of this month's Card a Day challenge but this week is very full.

Now the card... I used the free card template provided for the challenge at Paperthreads. Then I added Chris Moose from Michelle's Chris Moose File (WB00267).  You can find it in the store at Paperthreads. The papers are all from my stash of Christmas paper and it is a huge stash! cus I love anything Christmas.  The ornaments were cut from a piece a Christmas paper.  Thanks for looking and come join the fun at Card a Day .

Celebrate Christmas

that's the theme this week on Card a Day blogspot.  I made the following card for it. I used a free card template file from the Paperthreads.com Sept. card challenge.  The papers are SEI Alpine, Bo Bunny and SU!  They blended very well.  The tag can be used as a bookmark or a gift tag later.  This has been a fun month for me with the Card a Day blogspot challenges.  I love Christmas and making Christmas cards :-).  I really wish someone else would start doing the challenges besides me.

Have you started your shopping yet?

I haven't, but I did start today and finished my son's.  Here's the card I made for the Card a Day Blog theme of Shopping.  I also used it for a challenge at Visual Designs by Chris.  The round base was a free file for joining the VDBC challenge, then I added a Sam and Hailey Designs file  (JB00062 - Gift Trio) to complete it. You can find both files in the VDBC Store .  Thanks for stopping by.

Card a Day

Card a Day is still doing a great job challenging all of us with beautiful creations!  the theme this week is Christmas around the World. Go check out their beautiful cards!
Here is mine.  I used a SU! set called Around the World (it is the same set I used the snowmen from on my Home for the Holidays card.  I finally found it's name).  I colored the clothing with atyou Spica pens.  The round Christmas stamp is a clear set I have and I have no clue of it's manufactor. I used my nestibilities to cut out the stamp image and the mat for it.  I think the mat is SU! paper.  The card base is ... oh man I can't remember.  I've used it before so I'll have to look through my other posts to see if I remembered before - lol.

Thanks again ladies at Card a Day for all your inspiration!!

Christmas Food

The theme this week on the Card a Day Blog is Christmas Food.  There are some really cute cards there already!  Check it out.

A friend came over last Saturday night to make cards. She came up with a baking tray with the ginger bread charms on it along with the Merry Christmas Heart charm. She could never figure out how she wanted to make a card with it so left it for me. I found the Santa with the pudding on a piece of Tim Holtz Christmas paper. Add a base and triangle and you have a Christmas Food card. I think I'm going to lift Cindy from the Creative Point's sentiment off the card she posted today on the Card a Day Blog and add it to mine ... Sweet Christmas Wishes.   I like that and I couldn't think of one when I was making my card.  Thanks for the inspiration Cindy!!! 

Christmas at Home

Card a Day blog is challenging us again!  There are 5 new themes this time around.  Here's the card I made for the Christmas at Home theme.  I used two SU! stamps sets and I don't know the names of either :-(.  The house is from one and the snowmen from another that had arched snowmen with a sentiment under it.  I cut it out with a nestability and stamped the "home for the holidays" with an alpha set I have.  I did all of that on white paper and it was tooo white so I inked it and I got my snow on the house and ground dirty :-(  lol.  I need to try and clean it up before I send it to someone. Thanks for looking!
