Penguin

I've made another Christmas card with CC Designs stamps and dies to add to my pile :)
I used a gorgeous new stamp called Penguin, isn't it adorable?!!!




I white embossed the sentiment from Snowman Sentiments onto a tag from the Layering Tags Die.  And I also used the beautiful Snowflake Die again and the Shadow Spots Die, which I think looks great with these two cuties :)

I loved colouring this stamp and creating this card!  It was fun :)

Snowies

I have made another Christmas card to add to my little pile of them :)
This time I used the little musician from the new Snowies set.
You could use the cuties in this set for so many different occasions, but I need more Christmas cards! :)







I used the Jumbo Alphabet die to cut out the letters for "joy".  And I tried to make the "O" look like a wreath by using a white pen and adding some twine.
The stamped sentiment is from the Little Pixie Angels set.

Snowman with Robin




Today is RELEASE DAY for the new NOVEMBER Stamps at C.C. Designs. As you have seen from our Preview Days, these new stamps revolve around those chilly, wintry days....except for those last minute mermaids that made their way into this release! And, don't forget about the 12 new DOVEART stamps that were released at the end of October. You have a lot of amazing choices this month for your stamping needs.

I decided to use the gorgeous Snowman with Robin stamp.
It is an adorable image and I decided to make another Christmas card to add to my small collection.
I used the Make a Card #10 Christmas Die with him and I was happy with how it turned out :)




I made the background using lots of different BG copics in a swirled circle around him and the blender pen to create snow.
