WARNING: THIS POST MAY CONTAIN CHRISTMAS CARDS!

OK I played along with Christmas Cards All Year 'Round.

This month we would like you to...

Create a card using a non traditional image with traditional Christmas colours

OR

Create a card with a traditional Christmas image using non traditional colours.

 

I just want you to know that this was hard!

HARD I TELL YA!

 

Does 'embossing' count as an 'image'!?

Cause for the life of me, none of the stamps I wanted to use looked right!

(Maybe if I'da picked different colors....it's October, I'm in Halloween mode!)

 

 

 

I wanted to make an easel card......

I scored my cardstock the wrong way!

Of course I did!

 

And just so ya know, the snowflake is IVORY!

Not WHITE like a 'traditional' snowflake!

 

 

Oh well, I was kinda happy with the finished product, and made 4 of these not right easel cards!!

But, ya know what!?

Somebody will get them at Christmas and not know they're wonky!

 

Talk to ya later!

Ta ta for now!

Holy Moly that's quite the acronym!
It's for House Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge!

***NEW CHALLENGE ***

Our mega talented Teamie, Stacy Morgan is hosting and she wants to see you create an ATC Turn-About. What that basically means is that you will take your ATC and turn it into a card creation. Easy Peasy, right?

  If you are not familiar with what an ATC is, let us explain;
It is a miniature work of art with an approximate size of (2 ½ X 3 ½ inches), or, (63 mm X 89 mm). It is small enough to fit inside standard card-collector pockets, sleeves or sheets. The ATC movement developed out of mail art and has its origins in Switzerland. These mini Cards are produced in various media and usually traded or exchanged rather than sold. The sky is the limit in this fun art. So give it a go!!! :)

 

Here's my contribution:

 

 

Of course, I HAD to make an ATC first!

Just so I'd get it right; and of course it's October, so of course I'm in Halloween mode!

I used my newest toy, my label maker, to make the sentiment!

(Actually I made a few, different sized fonts you know!

Now I'll have to make some more cards to put them on!)

 

Well there you have it!

You still have over a week to play along!

 

Talk to ya later!

Ta ta for now!
