Sassy Cheryl's: A Snowman and Die Cut

 HANGING STAR SNOWMAN 

This week at Sassy Cheryl's-a snowman and a die cut.  Because we know y'all are busy this time of year ( and we are too!), you have two full weeks to play.  Fun, fun, FUN!  

There are times when I think the photo is actually prettier than the card-this is NOT one of those times!  This card definitely looks better live---oh, well...

I got these fabulous dies when visiting my BFF-they are by Memory Box as is the DP.  I heat embossed the star.  Easy peasy-oh, and it really does look better live:)

Phindy's Place: Scraps!

SHY GUY! 

This week at Phindy's Place, use some of those scraps-nothing bigger than 3"!  This DP is leftover from last Christmas.  I colored with my Copics.  None of my scraps are longer than 3" long and some are much smaller.

Knowing everyone is busy with the holidays fast approaching, this will be the last Phindy challenge until January 6th, 2012!!!  So from all of us at Phindy's Place, we wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.  For those of you celebrating other special holidays, we wish you the happiest fo holidays, too!

Sassy Cheryl's: It's a Blizzard-White on White

 SASSY SALLY AND HER PERFECT TEDDY BEAR GIFT

This week at Sassy Cheryl's: It's a Blizzard: White on White.  

This is an opportunity to break out all those emboosing folders, and I took full advantage of that!  I colored this little cutie with Copics, cut her out and glued her on plain white card stock cut with a Nestabilitie.  

I hope all is well in your world and that you will join us this week for our         Sassy Cheryl challenge!

Friends, I am sooo out of the loop.  I've had a shift in priorities since Thanksgiving-my family always comes first, and one of my brood had some pressing needs.   I apologize for not visiting blogs and commenting.  I hope that soon, I will return to a somewhat normal, and pleasantly happy routine!

Sassy Cheryl's: Santa!

 HALF MOON SANTA

This week at Sassy Cheryl's---Santa!!!  I love this image of the Jolly Ol' Elf-wonderfully easy to color!  I used Copics and then Martha Stewart flocking on both his beard and hat.  My DP is Basic Grey, Nordic-love it!  I used rubber stamps for the sentiments.  Yet another easy peasy card-seems to be my MO!

Phindy's Place: #84 Anything Goes with a Phindy Image!

 LULA SHOPPING

How about this for ANYTHING GOES challenge with A Phindy image!  Nope, not a Christmas card!  I pulled out one of these Sweet and Sassy images-just to change it up a bit!  I colored with Copics, used Diamond glze to make her bag look patent, and then had some fun with a Spica glitter pen.  Very simple, kind of elegant :)

I hope you'll join us this week for Anything Goes!  Remember to use a Phindy image this week-never a problem...just take a look in her store.  My wishlist is ever growing!
