VIBRANT Christmas card

I made this card yesterday using an image from Delicious Doodles that I had coloured up last week when I was sick.  I used a fancy card base that my friend ANNETTE sent me (thanks Netty!!!)   I even stole her Layout from HERE!!!   The CS is Pretty in Pink (SU) and the DP is also from SU - not sure the name of the pack though! It's old!  I added some bright pink ribbon and some pink snowflakes!  I added some stickles to the snowflakes in the image and some rhinestones.  I think its pretty VIBRANT, so I am entering this into the ABC Christmas challenge blog

I am also entering this into the Ladybug Crafts Ink TLT Challenge which is the letter P - Pink, Polar Bear, Parka, Punches...hope that's enough Ps!!!!

Thanks for stopping by on this snowy Wednesday!!!
Hugs,
Chris

Christmas Tags

 Good morning everyone!!!  I have created 2 Christmas Tags using a couple really cute Digi Garden images.  The first one is Molly Skates and the second one is Candy Cane Elf.  Cute hey???  I have coloured them both with Copics and have used up some of my scraps that were laying on my floor (yes, I am a VERY messy crafter!)  The tags are manila tags I bought a couple years ago - thinking I could keep up with Tim Holtz and his 12 Tags of Christmas - boy was I out of my league!! LOL  Anyway, I have a lot of these tags to use up now, so why not use them!!!!





I am entering these tags into the following challenges:  
Crafty Boots Challenge - Tags or Invitations 
One Stitch at a Time - Make 1 for Christmas (I made 2...hope that's ok!!!)
Ooh la la creations - Christmas
Make it Monday - Anything Goes
Paper Playtime - Anything Goes

THANKS for stopping by!!
Have a GREAT day!

I love Zombies!

Ok, let me clarify that!  I NEVER ever ever ever liked zombies until I was coerced into watching The Walking Dead....I don't know about you, but I was HOOKED within the first 15 min.  Sure, there are some gross parts but MAN, is it crazy good!!!  Anyway, that's not why I'm here today.....lol......even though it is on tonight!

I wanted to show you a card I made for my nephew that I'm entering into the Meljen's TEAR IT UP challenge!  I completely stole the sentiment from one of Meljen's designers (thanks Dianna) but it fits SO amazingly with Zombie Bunny!  LOVE this image!!!  Nothing too fancy with this layout, just a lot of ripping and distressing - do you find some papers distress better than others? The blue paper was FRUSTRATING! It kept bending, not shredding...I wonder if my Tim Holtz distresser tool is dull?!?!?!  Hmmmmmm!!!!



Thanks for stopping by!  Enjoy your Sunday!
Hugs,
Chris
