Christmas Card Challenge Week #2

11 December 2015

 



Morning all! Here's this week's inspiration photo at Christmas Card Challenges. It's optional just to get you started but you don't have to use it. The only real rule to play along each week is to create a holiday or Christmas card and have fun!
 
For my card today I have chosen images from Heirloom Ornament By Gina K. Designs. It's an older set that unfortunately is not available anymore but still considered one of my favorite Christmas sets. The sentiment is from the set Rustic Wreath by Papertrey Ink. This one is available and you can view it here. I would also like to take this time to inform you that Christmas Card Challenges will be taking a short break after this challenge so that we all can spend some time with family and friends. I will be doing some holiday traveling to visit family as will some of the other DT members. Thanks for stopping by.
 
Merry Christmas!
Hugs, Rema

    Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas

    09 December 2015





    Hi everyone! Once again I'm featuring Into the Woods along with Rustic Wreath by PTI to create this card that has been linked to several challenge listed below this post. This week's Papertrey MIM Challenge is to add felt embellishments to our project. I found the pretty white felt poinsettia in my stash of items that have fallen out of their original packaging so there's no telling where it came from. It needed a home and this card was the perfect place for it. I added a gold adhesive snowflake to the center.
     
    Thanks for taking time to visit.
    Hugs, Rema

    O Holy Night

    07 December 2015




    Hello! I'm loving these beautiful snowflake dies by Cas-ual Fridays that was included in my Holiday Magic SOA Collection by Catherine Pooler. Sponging my backgrounds is quickly becoming a favorite technique of mine and I do it whenever I can.. Today's card features a sentiment from O Holy Night by Papertrey Ink. I added splatters and a bit of glitter to the centers of three of the snowflakes as a finishing touch.

    Naughty or Nice?

    06 December 2015



    Morning! First of all I have a bit of news to share with you all today. I recently joined the Christmas Card Challenge Design Team. I am so looking forward to working with some very talented ladies! You can find the introductions to all the new team members here.

     
    My first card as a DT member for the Christmas Card Challenge features the Make a Santa Die & Stamp Set Bundle by Lil' Inker Designs. Santa's hat is 100% wool felt. It doesn't show up very well but I sprinkled a little red sparkly glitter on the hat hoping it would stick to the fibers without adding any kind of adhesive to it. Some of it did and the rest stuck to everything else on my table.  Below is the graphics to this weeks challenge. Please stop by and play along!
     
    Have a great day!
    Hugs, Rema

    PEACE & JOY

    01 December 2015




    Hello! Hope you all had a lovely Thanksgiving. I celebrated mine in Iowa visiting my son and his family and it was a super good time! I hated to leave but Christmas is just around the corner and I'll be spending it with both my children and their families which is very rare since we all live miles apart from each other.

    I have a card to share today featuring Winter Woods by Papertrey Ink. It seems to be my current favorite at the moment. The sentiment is from Peaceful Pinecones also by PTI. I added splatters and a bit of twine to finish off my project. There are several current challenges taking place this week that I have linked my card to. They are listed at the bottom of this post.
