Amber Ink Orange Torch!

Good Morning! I am feeling so much better, the sun is shinning, and the day looks promising! I am so excited to announce that I have been passed the Amber Ink Orange Torch for the month of December!! My very talented friend and super hero, Deb Miller passed me the torch yesterday. So today is my first official post for the Amber Ink Design Team.

Amber ink has some of the some of the cutest digi images (and digi papers too)! I fell in love with these Love Bunnies, and had to use them first, so cute! I added the mistletoe from 'Tis the Season to be Pretty. Sentiment was added on the computer. I also flocked their little puffy tails, just cause it made me happy!
I hope that you are having a wonderful day, be sure to stop by the Amber Ink Blog to see more wonderful creative goodness. Here is a list of the other torches that are being passed this month, fabulous blogs,each one filled with amazing creations!!

Been Sick....

Just a quick post today so you don't think I fell off the face of the Earth or anything, I've been sick. It's been no fun. But I am feeling better and wanting to get back to my normal routine, I am so very behind!! This is another Christmas card I made using all A Muse Studio products. The stamp set is Nordic Noel and  Winter Stag (sentiment). Paper is Cranberry, Bermuda, Kraft, and Sugar Shimmer. The reindeer is coated with flocking . The snowflakes were created by using the snowflake impression plate, then gently sanding the paper so the white shows through. Simple and fun!
I hope that you all have had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend! Thanks for stopping by! :) 

Felicity

Another Mabelle R.O. image from Whimsy and Stars Studio, this one is "Felicity", isn't she lovely?!. I really tried for a soft delicate look in my coloring, but it still turned out brighter than I intended. I guess that is what happens when you keep adding just a little more... :) I guess I just am not a soft and delicate when it comes to coloring !! I used a piece of  A Muse Bermuda paper that I ran through my big shot with an impression plate, then sanded to make my stripes pop. The sentiment is from an A Muse set, Contemporary Greetings, and was embossed with white embossing powder. So even though it didn't turn out as "soft" as I originally intended, I still love how it turned out!! :) I hope that you like it too!
I also wanted to say a warm Welcome to two very talented designers that are joining the Whimsy and Stars Team, Debra Miller and Christine Pennington! Not only are they amazingly talented, but I have met them both and they are two of the sweetest people ever. So glad to have you both on the team with us, can't wait to see all your beautiful creations each month!!!
Oh My goodness I almost forgot! Mabelle extended the special BUY 2 Get 1 FREE!! So this would be a great time to get some sweet digis to add to your collection!
Hope that you are having a wonderful day, thanks for stopping by!

A Muse Studio Blog Hop!

I am so excited to be part of this A Muse Studio blog hop! If you are participating in the blog hop, you should have come from  Carissa Fulkerson's Blog and if not, then you should start from the beginning with Samantha's blog until you come to my blog.
The theme this month is Christmas, I love creating for the holidays, it is one of my most favorite times of the year. This card was one of the first ideas I had when I saw this Snowflake Impression Plate.  Sentiment is from Vintage Holiday Greetings, another new favorite!!

I don't know how many of you are like me and keep a stash of alterable items tucked away. It's a bad habit I have, usually a direct result of too many ideas and not enough time! This is one of those cute little mail boxes that can be found in the dollar bins around Valentine's day, but I thought it would be oh so cute as a "Letter's to Santa" mail box!! I used the set Holiday Tags, and our lovely Candy Cane Stripe Paper as well.

 Now on to your next stop Chelsea Comer's blog. Thanks so much for stopping by, have a wonderful day!!
