Caffeinated Christmas Card Challenge

 I can't believe it is August already.  It says to me I need to start working on my Christmas cards as Christmas will be here before we know it.  For inspiration for my card I went to the Caffeinated Christmas Card Challenge.

The theme of this challenge is to make a card with a Christmas/Holiday theme with Coffee, Tea and/or Cocoa theme.


For my card I am using the stamp set "Cup of Cocoa" by Newton's Nook Designs.  I stamped the images off and colored them with my copic markers.  You can buy the matching dies but I did not so I fussy cut each image out.  For the designer paper I used Not a Creature was stirring by Photoplay.  I also used the A2Card Layout Die.  I think they make the greatest backgrounds for you card.

So one Christmas card down and a lot more to make.  

Hope to see you over at the Caffeinated Christmas Card Challenge.

PIP Challenge #2531

 This weeks challenge for Pammies Inky Pinkies is being sponsored by The Cutting Cafe.


I decided to make a couple of cards this week using images from The Cutting Cafe.  

The first card I decided to make is an acorn shaped card.  I cut the designs out with my Brother Scan n Cut machine and put it together.  So easy and such a fun card.





The next card I made was using "Birthday Sentiments".   Sometimes you can make the easiest card with sentiments.  There are alot of choices when you purchase this set.  The background for the card is a napkin that a friend gave me.  I just used some modge pod on a piece of 4 x 5 1/4 inch piece of cardstock and laid the napkin over it.  It was so fun to do.

Thanks for stopping by my blog.  Hope you check out some of the other creations by the design team at Pammies Inky Pinkies.
