Christmas Joy

I don’t know about you, but I have always associated gingerbread with Christmas.  The fresh aroma of gingerbread cooking seems to feel the air with the Christmas spirit and joy.

For today’s card I have used the adorable Ginger Family in Heart.  I coloured the image with copics and added some Nuvo Crystal Glaze and Nuvo Glitter Accents Fresh Snowfall.  The embellishments on the side are from BoBunny’s Christmas Wood shapes and were coloured with some  Zig Wink of Stella Pens. I then used a Clear Spectrum Noir Sparkle Glitter Pen to add some glitter.

‘Twas the night before Christmas…..

Welcome OCS and HH fans;

I don’t know about you, but I am so so not ready for Santa popping down the chimneys a month today.  Yes, you read right — Christmas Eve will soon be upon us.

My most favourite story/poem is “Twas the Night Before Christmas”, and for today’s post I have incorporated part of it, along with the adorable stamp from High Hopes Stamps called “Filled Stocking“.  The wording and stockings are from the “Twas the Night Before Christmas” paper collection from Echo Park.

Welcome OCS fans;

It looks like winter has finally arrived and a dumping of snow is going to make its’ appearance.  I don’t know about you, but I find a little snow goes a long way — not great for driving but awesome for making snowmen.

Snowmen come in all shapes and sizes and are adorable.  For today’s card I have used the Framed Hartley Snowman from High Hopes Stamps.  Hartley was coloured with copics.  I added some Nuvo White Blizzard glitter drops to him.  I added a Frosty Border die from Memory Box and added some YNS Gumdrops to it.

Supplies used:

I hope you have a chance to ink up a stamp and join our Christmas/Winter Fun Challenge.  If you need any supplies for your project, check out Lora’s One Crazy Stamper store.
