Paper Playtime Challenge

Ch# 84 PUNCHES + a Sentiment

CTMH papers + SNS Pengies = my entry in the current Paper Playtime Challenge

CTMH Card Class 9/18/12

Here are the cards from Joyce's Card Class this afternoon.  It's truly amazing how quiet the room gets when we are all coloring.

H2H Challenge

I'm getting my Christmas cards done one challenge at a time.  I made this card for the Heart 2 Heart Challenge.  This is discontinued CTMH paper that I dearly wish they still carried. 

It's Mojo Monday

Here is my entry for this week's Mojo Monday #259 Contest.

Since I still had paper out from the gift card holder I made yesterday, I just used that.  I stamped a Playful Pengie from Sparkle N Sprinkle's Playful Pengies Stamp Set, added some glitter on his hat and a few other spots, embossed the card front, cut out 2 little candy canes from the paper to add to the bow and voila.  Hope you like it!

Card Holders

The cat got me up early this morning so I got this card holder made before breakfast.  It was a precut kit that a friend gave me.  Basically I just glued it together.  It is made with the new CTMH Avonlea paper.  This matches the Workshop on the Go cards I made a few weeks ago.

And I just got the finishing touches done on this gift card holder with belly band. This features Peppermint Christmas Bear, a digital stamp designed by Michelle Perkett and available at Sparkle N Sprinkle.  I used Night Sky Sparkle N Soft flocking on his pink and black scarf. 

Going in circles

Every time I start to tidy up my stamping area (aka the dining room table) I end up making something.  Before I went to last weekend's show, I came across a technique on the Sparkle N Sprinkle web site for punching in circles and had quickly tried it with my pansy punch.  So as I was attempting to organize my work area, I came across my pansy circle.  On Tuesday a dear friend gave me some odds and ends for my cards.  One was a packet of punch out flowers, which included pansies.  Perfect!  And in no time at all, the pansy circle was no longer cluttering up my table. 

CTMH Card Class 9/10/12

Here are photos from today's class:

Since there were leftover pieces already cut from Sunday's 2 Make & Takes, we made those with a few changes here and there.

Joyce came up with this cute card for us to make.  Why are mustaches such a hot item right now? 

And this was our final card.  We put multiple layers of Liquid Glass on the large green leaf which gave it a very shiny, almost vinyl quality.
