BYSH Cardmakers: Christmas in July

  Well I am on day 4 of completing another Christmas card for the BYSH Cardmakers:  Christmas in July Party.  It is so nice to get a jump start on my Christmas cards.  I hope you are checking out all the beautiful Christmas cards that have been submitted on their blog.

Today I am using the same set I used yesterday.  Darcie's Heart & Home Figgy Pudding.  For my card today I am using the Fruitcake image which I colored with my copic markers and then fussy cut out.  

I just loved the sentiment that went with  this set.  I also used one of the flat back "Tin Pin" embellishments on top of the image.  The designer paper is Miss Mary Christmas from Hobby Lobby.

Thanks for stopping by.

 Well I am on day 3of completing another Christmas card for the BYSH Cardmakers:  Christmas in July Party.  It is so nice to get a jump start on my Christmas cards.  Be sure and check out all the beautiful creations on the blog.

For today's card I am using Darcie's Heart & Home stamp set "Figgy Pudding" along with the flat back "Tin pin" embellishments which are always so much fun.

I colored the reindeer mug and figgy pudding stamp with my copic markers.  I then fussy cut them out and popped on one of the tin pin embellishments for each image.  The sentiments are from the same stamp set.  The designer paper is Miss Mary Christmas from Hobby Lobby.

PIP Challenge #2429

 The sponsor this week for Pammies Inky  Pinkies Challenge #2429 is SheepSki Designs.  

For my card today I decided to use the adorable Sunflower Border digital image.  I love sunflowers probably because they are the Kansas State Flower.

I colored the image with my copic markers and then used the sentiment from It's Your Day by Taylored Expressions.

I hope you check out all the other cards that the design team make for PIP Challenges.  They always do such a great job.

Thanks again to SheepSki Designs for being out sponsor this week.

BYSH Cardmakers: Christmas in July

Well I am on day 2 of completing another Christmas card for the BYSH Cardmakers:  Christmas in July Party.  I sure  hope to make a dent in all the Christmas cards I want to make.

Today I am using another image from the Avery Elle Christmas Critters stamp set. 

I am having so much fun coloring these adorable critters with my copic markers.  I am also trying to use up my scrap Christmas paper.  

Thanks again to all the sponsors at the BYSH Cardmakers Christmas in July Party.

BYSH Cardmakers: Christmas in July

 I have decided to get started on my Christmas cards and I felt there was no better way that to be inspired by the BYSH Cardmakers:  Christmas in July Party.  It is always such a fun week to see all the Christmas cards that are made for this challenge.

For my card today I am using some images from Avery Elle Christmas Critters stamp set.

I colored the image with my copic markers and then used a circle die to cut the image out.  I added a little bit of Crystal Stickles on the at the give it a litte extra.

Thanks to BYSHC for having this Christmas in July party every year.  I hope to get alot of cards done this week.

Creative Crew

 Today is post day for our Creative Crew challenge on Splitcoaststampers.  July 15th is National Get Out of the Doghouse Day so in celebration, our challenge is to make cards with any pet and/or a doghouse on them.

For my card I found an old rubber stamp of a dog house that had been taken off the wood block so I'm not really sure who made this stamp set.  The dog, bowl, and bone are  from "Fetching Friendship" by Newton's Nook Designs.  I colored all the images with my copic markers and then fussy cut them out and placed them in front of the dog house.  The papers I used were from My Dog by Echo Park.

PIP Challenge #2427

 I am a little late in posting my card for Challenge #2427 for Pammies Inky Pinkies Challenges.  Such a nice relaxing weekend that I forgot about my post for today.  This weeks challenge is sponsored by Polkadoodles.

                                           

I was thinking Christmas in July when I made my card for this weeks challenge.  I ready somewhere that Christmas is only 24 weeks away.  We all know the weeks have a way of going fast.

For my card today I decided to use the adorable digital image Frostella & Ginger Gift.

I hope to see you over at PIP Challenges this week.  It is always fun to see what people come up with.
