Icicle challnge

I'm back with another card to share tonight. This one is for the Icicle challenge at Curtain Call. I was inspired by the blue and silver on the icicle. I love this stamp from Neat and Tangled , perfect little snowy scene. Have a great night.

Waiting for the storm

Hello, it's been a busy sunday here. I did my best to finish all the laundry today, we are expecting the ice storm anytime now.... hoping it misses us. I commute 40 minutes each way to work everyday and that is in good weather. I wanted to make another color with this hydrangea stamp, I felt the last one you couldn't see the sentiment as well. Playing along with the January mix up challenge at the Classroom. Hope to see you soon.

CCC #4

Hello, I hope you are warm wherever you are....me not so much. I live outside Chicago, and they don't call it the windy city for nothing. This challenge theme is Presents... who doesn't love those ? I was excited to use my new die from PTI . I loved this the moment I saw it. I'm thinking of making some gift tags with it next. I hope you will join us . See you soon.

Saturday night in.

Hello, I'm enjoying a peaceful night in tonight. We are expecting an ice storm tomorrow , so I wanted to sneak in some craft time .. in case the power goes... fingers crossed it doesn't. My new supplies finally arrived after sitting at my local post office in sorting for several days ( I'm sure I'm not the only one tracking their order like a stalker). I couldn't wait to ink this stamp up. It might be my new favorite ( or at least until I order the peony stamp). I paired an Avery Elle sympathy die with the mondo hydrangea for the January mix up challenge @ the Classroom.Also playing along with SSS monday challenge Square cards.   I have needed a few too many of these cards lately, so I plan to made more. Thanks for visiting , see you soon.

January mix up challenge

Hello, Hoping you are safe and warm tonight... It's dangerously cold in my neck of the woods tonight.. so I'll be staying in crafting tonight. I wanted to play along with The Classroom's mixup challenge, but I only have a very limited supply of Essentials by Ellen stamps/dies.... So I really have to stretch what I do have. I used the leaf from the mondo poinsettia stamp for my background and the diecut sentiment is Avery Elle. Hopefully the stamps and die I ordered yesterday arrive soon. Thanks for visiting, see you soon.
