Happy Thursday everyone and thanks for taking the time to visit the Charmed Life Blog. It's the most wonderful time of the year. I love the Christmas season and the family time, the gift buying, baking, special church services and plays, card making etc etc etc.
I am still working on my cards but they will be finished soon. We have the outside of the house decorated and today I will start the inside. Then a little break for lunch with a friend at Bahama Breeze. We both love their Salmon Tostada.
Now onto my card for today. This one I made for the featured stamper challenge on Splitcoaststampers. This week the honors went to Sharri aka sseffens.
I wasn't familiar with this stamper but she has quite an impressive gallery of cards.
I chose her Christmas Baubles card to recreate ala Mary Marsh style. I kept her layout and Christmas theme.
For my card I used the Echo Park "very merry Christmas" collection. It has quite an array of beautiful Christmas papers plus element stickers. I used the ornament stickers and the Christmas sentiment for my card.
Cut a Stampin-Up top-note die in cherry cobbbler and layered the ornaments on that. Used the Cuttlebug swiss dots embossing folder on the sentiment layer. Added some early espresso bakers twine to complete this card.
Well that;s it for me today so until next time.......God bless.
Some other challenges:
1. Christmas at Sweet Stampin' has an anything goes challenge.
2. Crafts and Me has an anything goes with an optional ornament.
3. Deep Ocean Challenge has a "so this is Christmas" challenge.
