Christmas Owl

Hi Friends, How are you doing? I have been a bit late with my Project Life Posts. Life has happened LOL..I will be back tomorrow with a couple of spreads of PL.

Meanwhile, I did a few Christmas cards over the weekend. It is never too early to get started on your Christmas cards.

I did this card for,

A) July Christmas Cards Challenge on SplitCoastStampers - To create a card with Red, Blue and White Color Scheme and to use something sparkly on the card.
B) Challenge #27 on A Blog Named Hero - To create a card or project using your fav Hero Arts Stamp. I used this Holiday Owl set from Hero Arts.
C)Merry Monday Merry Monday Month Long - Anything Goes Christmas Card challenge.

I kept the card simple with red card base and some old Basic Grey Eskimo Kisses Paper. I stamped and colored the hat of the Owl with Blue Copic Marker and then add the sentiment to a white punched out paper. Overall, just a simple card, but loved how it turned out. I also added some red gem embellishment on the corner of the card to add something sparkly.

Merry Monday #36

Hello Friends, Hope you had a good Tuesday. I had a very productive Tuesday - at home front as well as on crafting front. I am back with a card that I made for Merry Monday Challenge #36. I am just in love with her Sketches. They are just perfect for mass producing cards and you can keep them CAS or embellish them. As you can see I kept them CAS.

I used this awesome Charlie Brown and Snoopy stamp from Stampabilities and then colored it with Copics. I kept the whole layout simple and added a golden glitter snowflake as an accent. This is totally my kind of cards to make, a nice image with copic coloring and simple layout.

I added some liquid applique to the hats of Charlie brown and snoopy :))
