bah-humbug-christmas #32 'KISS'mas

These are my little cards for Bah-humbug-Christmas #32 'KISS'mas

Send Christmas Kisses to a loved one!My first instinct, of course, was Hershey Kisses... but....

there weren't any left, I mean, there aren't any in the house...

I used two different house mouse stamps, with a slight scissor action, and

replaced the heart and strawberries with mistletoe.

The Hugs and Kisses ribbon was from my stash.

I love my MS drippy goo punch and used it here for melting snow...

like the kisses are melting your heart...groan... Judy Ford

Well before you slip into a sugar coma, go over to Bah-Humbug

and see how the other papercrafters did Kissmas!

Judy Ford

I started with a Dragon stamp I got from Big Lots for $2!!!!
I love bargains!
I colored "her" with my Copics (thanks Betty Brett)
I used the sketch from Clean and Simple stamping stretch out to a 4x9 card.
The rhinestone flourish is from my stash and
I used "rub-on" letters for my sentiment.

Jingle Belles Rock #33 Bling in the Holidays

This is my card for my favorite challenge blog:

Jingle Belles Rock #33 - BLING on the Holidays!

so I blinged it!!!
Judy Ford
I started with my favorite angel stamp -
glitter gel pen for their halos
diamond glitter glue for their wings and the background MS Shell round the corner punch
I put this on some Glitter paper I've been saving in my stash
I then added a rhinestone flourish to two corners
the other corners looked lonely so I added some bows
from my Life's a Party Cricut Expression cartridge
and some blue bling from a Betty Bee Swarm!


of course, IRL this really BLINGS!
can't quite capture it in these pictures.
Go check out what the other papercrafters have blinged!
then go bling yourself and show off over at Jingle Belles Rock!!!

Jingle Belles Rock #32 Shape card and Cas-ual Fridays #14 Glitzy Glue Dots

this is my card for two challenges:

Jingle Belles Rock #32 - Shape up for the Holidays -

make a shaped card other than square or rectangle

CAS-ual Friday CFC 14 - Glitzy Glue Dots - use glue dots or strips to apply glitter
Judy Ford
What fun I had with these challenges! I used my Wild Card Cartridge for my expression to make the round doily/snowflake card. I used the feature fit to page and ended up with a 5 1/4" card with a pretty lacey edge without having to guess the size!
I added some glitter paper from my prize My Mind's Eye from Opus-Gluei
a SU snowmen stamp and my copic markers!
A MS punch around the corner added a lacey feeling to the whole card.
Then I used mini glue dots on the scalloped edges and some
teal glamour glitter (it has 3 kinds of glitter - flakes, rods, dust)
IRL it's very glitzy!!!
Hope you liked my glitzy snowball card!
It was very fun to make!
Go over to the two challenge sights and see what the other papercrafters have done!
Better yet, grab paper and glitter and join us!!!
