Gorjuss Christmas

I think I just figured out what has been wrong with my pictures lately; there are little fingerprints on the lense of my camera! I'm going to have to fix that before I make any more cards, because it's causing my photos to look foggy. The overcast sky isn't helping either.

Today I used Marlene's awesome sketch from The Sugar Bowl:

I also doodled some "zig-zag" for the second part of The Sugar Bowl challenge. The adorable Gorjuss Girl image is from Sugar Nellie, of course. I love those Gorjuss Girl stamps!

Well, back to crafting. I have a lot of Christmas cards to make still! I need to get them out before Christmas this time (haha). Thanks for taking the time to look! :) Have a happy Thanksgiving!

5-Challenge Card

I actually played with five different challenge blogs while making this one card! I used Judy's sketch from The Sugar Bowl: Challenge 23:


Over at Just Us Girls they're having a "Dry Embossing" challenge. I dry embossed several different pieces of paper on this card. All of that texture brings me to Cute Daisy May's challenge this week - "Touchy-touchy". Not only does most of my paper have texture between all the distressing and dry embossing I did, but all of that glitter is quite raised and the ribbon is nice, sleek, and smooth! Cute Card Thursday's challenge this week is, "Glitter Me Silly". I added glitter to all of the flowers, leaves, to the bow around the flower pot, and even some on the girl! I would say, I got a little carried away (on purpose this time) to participate in the "Glitter Me Silly" challenge! That sure was fun! Normally I try to be careful NOT to add glitter all over the entire stamped image, but I basically did that today. Last, but not least I played with Charisma Cardz whose challenge this week is, "Merry & Bright". My card is definitely both of those! :)

Thanks for looking!
