Hi everyone!
Today I’m playing along with the current Freshly Made Sketches challenge.
I was really pleased to see the slimline card sketch this week as I thought I could finally use a die I bought at the start of the year thinking it was a LOT smaller than it turned out! Online shopping is tricky isn’t it? Anyway I was so glad to finally use a couple of dies from the Paper Discovery Cherry Blossoms and Lanterns die set!
The sentiment is by Savvy Stamps.

Hi everyone!
Today I’m playing along with the Freshly Made Sketches challenge.
For this card, I was inspired by Libby who created a beautiful card using a Hero Arts background/frame die! I immediately thought that my brand new Penny Black Looped Stackers dies could be coupled with the Concord & 9th ornaments from their Take a Bough Trimmings set. I coloured the baubles with my Tonic Nuvo markers and applied some Nuvo glaze on top of each of them. The sentiment is by Savvy Stamps.

Hi everyone!
I’m playing along with Tracey McNeely’s 25 Days of Christmas Tags event again this year.
The sponsor for Day 20 was The Greetery. I LOVE their products! So innovative! I just wish they had a UK retailer! Anyway, having just bought the word slice dies, I was delighted to see that Lisa had used them for her inspiration! I really would never have thought of using patterned paper with this die and I although I couldn’t quite use plaid paper, I did use a flowery pattern instead! I really like how this turned out! The pine branches are by Pretty Pink Posh and the sentiment is by Savvy Stamps.

Hi everyone!
I’m playing along with Tracey McNeely’s 25 Days of Christmas Tags event again this year.
The sponsor for Day 18 was Gillian Vance. I don’t have any Gillian Vance products so I decided to adapt the tag made by Lindsey!
The tree die is by Savvy Stamps and I used a sentiment by Simon Says Stamp.

Hi everyone!
I’m playing along with Tracey McNeely’s 25 Days of Christmas Tags event again this year.
The sponsor for Day 12 was Pinkfresh. I loved how Lindsey used leftover die cuts for some of her tags so I pulled out a bunch of my smaller dies to create my take! So many brands here! Taylored Expressions, Memory Box, Savvy Stamps and Simon Says Stamp! I loved creating this and it has given me a few card ideas!
Thanks for stopping by!

Hi Everyone!
I’m playing along with the current My Favorite Things sketch challenge today. As soon as I saw the sketch, I thought of the Memory Box circular scene dies that I’ve acquired over the years and decided to use them for my card.
I wanted to use the Reindeer Circle and Countryside Circle dies, but the latter is bigger than the former so I had to get creative as I wanted the circles to be the same size. I started with the Reindeer Circle die and used this to cut to circles in a white panel. I then cut away one deer and replaced it with the scene from the Countryside Circle die. I adhered a little deer from the Savvy Stamps Woodland Meadow set and then positioned one of my rejected stencil monoprint backgrounds behind the circles before adhering the whole ensemble to a card base.
To complete my card, I used a sentiment from the My Favorite Things Merry Everything stamp set and added a few sequins and a drop of red stickles for Rudolph’s nose!
Thank for stopping by!
