Birch Press Design - Folk Bird

I'm up on the Birch Press Design blog with a Scandinavian inspired card.

SOSS #260 - G for Green

Green is the theme for the latest Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers Challenge.  Isn't that wicked cool?  LOL.

I used the Grinch and his "love" of children for my card.  Yeah, that's pretty much my face too.

ATSM #487 - Christmas

I think these Scooby Doo holiday cards I worked up for the latest Addicted to Stamps & More Challenge #487 Christmas are sooooo cute.  Talk about blast from the past!

I did a few Daphne and Scooby ones with the same layout.

Do you have a favorite color combo?  

The purple/green is based on Daphne's outfit from the cartoon but I love seeing her dressed like Santa in the red and white version.

And I had to do one with Scooby and Shaggy.  I think I intended to add a holiday hat to one of them but just didn't have the right hat.  I'll keep my eye out for one tho.

Oh, shoot!  I could have turned Scooby's collar into a scarf.  Dang!

And here's the last one of just Daphne with a hat.  Not my favorite but I did use up some leftover bits so counting it as a win!

Come join us for the Addicted to Stamps & More! #486 Make Your Mark Challenge.  Did you know there are now descriptions on the blog better explaining the focus of each of our five challenge categories?  Be sure to check them out.

For my card I colored the Pinkfresh Studio Poinsettia Frame using Polychromos colored pencils. I'm hoping to continue to hone my skills.  I did use one of the PFS Poinsettia Frame layering stencils to sponge in the creamy edges.
