I hope everyone is enjoying to new year. Now that it is getting quiet again(other than my sweet boys 2nd birthday), I can get back to making more cards and taking more time for my posts and going to everyones blogs and make more comments. Although now that it is quiet again I also need to start exercising again to shed this holiday winter weight. I got Wii Fit Plus for Christmas so at least the exercising is fun. I made this card for my grandfather. His birthday is in February so I thought it would be fitting to make a winter card. He comes over for coffee so I thought this image was perfect for his card. I also tried paper piecing for the first time on the mug and I have to say that I am hooked and can't wait to try that again on another card. Here are the details...
Card: 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 easel card
Paper: DCWV and some of my scraps
Copics: E02, RV24, E33, E35, B23, B32
Stamps: digital from Digital Delights , clear stamp from Michaels
Punches: MS snowflake punch, Fiskar scallop circle punch and corner punch
Cuttlebug: snowflakes
Cricut:Celebrations-rndtag-shadow-cut at 3"
Other Supplies:Scribbles 3D paint for the foam on top of the mug, Memento Tuxedo Black ink for stamping, buttons from AC Moore, 3D dots, Recollections Pearls for some bling, Celebrate It Bow-tique holiday ribbon
Onto the big list of challenges...
Pile It On #29 "Anything Digital" (digi from Digital Delights)
Corrosive #45 "These Are A Few Of My Favorite Things..." (my 2 favorite embellishments are Recollections pearl stickers and ribbon)
