Great minds and all that

 I was inspired by the Simon Says Stamp designer Cindy Norberg for the shadowbox. Actually it was the white one on the included card kit designer sheet and I honestly did not even see the one she made a couple of days ago that looks just like this, same colors and everything. Santa's Helpers is the December kit of the month with one of my favorite paper designers- Craft Consortium. 

Winter Birthday

 More from the November card kit from SSS, this wonderful box of goodies! Added some punch greenery pieces and half pearls from my supplies. I really love the deep etching of this embossing folder that came with the kit and didn't want to cover it up too much.

Creating a background

 For the background I used Tea Dye and Vintage Photo distress oxide inks on kraft card stock along with the paper pieves from the Simon Says Stamp November card kit.

More Cozy Wishes

 Loving the November card kit from Simon Says Stamp, it's perfect for winter cards of all kinds. I used the stencil with Tea Dye and Vintage Photo distress oxide inks, Nuvo Red Berry crystal gloss drops, and red baker's twine.

Cozy Wishes

 Getting back into the swing of things after a long overdue vacation. Christmas will be here before we know it so let the decorating and crafting begin in earnest!

This is all from the Simon Says Stamp November card kit with the exception of the snow mix sequins which are Stampin' Up!

Boo Crew

 I love combining different stamp sets to get something unique. This card uses the Submarine Cubbies from Art Impressions, the ghosts from Hello Bluebird "Frightful Little Bits" stamps and dies, and the sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp "Happy Haunting". Background done with Tim Holtz distress oxide inks of Black Soot, Wilted Violet, Chipped Sapphire, and Salty Ocean. Bottom coral is Hedgehog Hollow.

Dia de los Muertos

 For a friend who celebrates this day. Stampingbella "Oddball Day Of The Dead" stamps colored in Copic markers. Sentiment embossed on Basic black, frame is by The Greetery.
