ATSM #489 - Any Occasion


Come join us for the Addicted to Stamps & More #489 Any Occasion challenge.  Maybe like me you try to make holiday cards throughout the year?


I stamped and colored up the cute CC Designs Grinch (I'm particularly pleased with how the tiled roof turned out), then sponged around the outer edges with Distress Oxide Salvaged Patina.  I spattered a bit of Copic Opaque White then layered the Lawn Fawn Snow Flurries Backdrop on top.

Come join us for another Addicted to CAS challenge.  This time we're asking for masculine cards--ugh.  Well, that's my usual attitude but this time I had the perfect new set to use.

ATSM #488 - Birthday


I made this birthday card for someone who lives in Australia but didn't get around to posting it earlier so am using it to inspire you (I hope!) for the latest Addicted to Stamps & More Birthday Challenge #488.

 
The romantic side of me loves Australia but the realistic side of me is wary about a place where it seems everything can kill you!
