The I added a kraft oval under my oval that had the digital from Power Poppy. I colored the image with alcohol markers and colored pencils. The sentiment is from Creative Worship stamps punch with an SU the scalloped oval.  Then layered it onto a larger oval punch.

I stamped this Christmas collage using an old 2004 Santa stamp from Stampin' Up, a background stamp by spellbinders, and 2 stencils from A Colorful Life. I used gold stencil butter for the stenciled sentiment. I used red distress oxide ink for the other stenciled pattern. I used copic markers and colored pencils to color the images. So, this turned out being a mixed media card. It was so fun t make.  Thanks, 

{BYSHC} for this fabulous Linky party and I always look forward to these events. Thanks for having these twice a year.

Making use of some pretty scraps on this card and some dies that I cut from my sister's die collection, I forgot to include the source on my bag of goodies. It may have been Spellbinder. Just a few days left of this amazing linky party going on and such a great time to get your Christmas motivation and inspiration going before the busy times hit in November.

Using traditional Christmas colors for this card for the Linky Party that {BYSHC}is having this week, I used two stencils from A Colorful Life. I added one of my pre-made poinsettia (not sure of source because I used a die from my sister's collection and I forgot to write it down!) The sentiment is from Creative Worship Stamps.I added gemstones that I colored with alcohol markers to make them the colors I needed for my card. 

 

BYSHC Linky Party Be Jolly

http://byshcardmakers.blogspot.com

Today I have had some fun using some of the Christmas dies I make all during the year spending some time to get the pieces cut and already assembled to save time during the holidays. All I have to do then is design the background and decide on sentiments. It really is a time saver.This is one of my favorite Santa images and it is from Sizzix. the cute littles eyes are stickers from Spellbinder. The sentiment is from CWS and is one of my favorite because the set has all the classic sentiments used during the season and are a nice size that fits almost any space you might have left on your card. 

 

BYSHC linky party-Glory to the King

http://byshcardmakers.blogspot.com

On the 5th day of  the Linky Party the inspiration that came to me,

Was a die cut of the Nativity!

This is really eclectic as well since I used a sentiment from CWS, design paper from Unity, a star die from Gina Marie designs, and I am not possitive about this, but I think the nativity die is from (maybe) Taylor Expressions.  I love all these companies that make my creations possible. What amazing tools and materials they provide for our passion for paper crafting.  

 

BYSHC Define Good

Wow, it's the 4th day of the Linky Party over at {BYSHC} and I am having such fun. This card was made using a Unity stamp and sentiment. I used versafine clair black ink for all my stamped image. It is one of favorite inks. I used alcohol inks for the coloring of the image. I added a glimmering flourish for the steam of the coffee and tried to personalize Miss Prissy's cup of cheer 

 

BYSHC not a fan

Love this prissy kitty from Unity. I am so happy to see that Unity is one of the sponsors again this year for the :BYSHC} Falling for the Holidays Linky Party. I used A Colorful Life stencil for my snowflake background. I stamped the image and sentiment with versafine clair black ink. I colored the image with alcohol inks.  I am not a fan of winter either, Miss Prissy!

I am using a great Angie Blom Digital Design that I just purchased this evening, She has a great sale going this week, and I love that these come directly to you minutes after ordering. I masked the circle using the negative part of a die cut, and used distress oxide inks to lightly blend the circular bubble around my image. I used alcohol markers to do my coloring. I am having such fun taking part in the Linky Party over at {BYSHC} and hope you are checking things out over there. I am also using this for the October Spllitcoaststampers Christmas Challenge.
