CHNC and Just Some Lines Challenge s

There's always a challenge and I made a neat glitzy kind of masculine Christmas card for the CHNC Christmas card for a man or a boy.  .  I love my new Hero Arts stamps and matching die-cuts (Sizzix), so I grabbed one of my snowmen (have a bunch pre-cut and just grabbed handy stuff to make this card.  I had a leftover background (you can see the reindeer in the background and patched together a card from my table scraps.  I think it turned out to be lots of fun. I used Stickles Xmas Red and then a bit of Distress Stickles Barn Door.  A really nice combo on the scarf and berries on the hat.

Did you know the great gold covered die-cut behind the snow man is recycled gold wrapping paper that I saved and adhered to a recycled folder that had seen its use.  Happy days that Just Some Lines is also having a challenge to reduce, reuse and recycle.

Have fun!

Hero Arts & Target - This was Fun!

I do love the background on these cards and hope it comes out as layering paper or a digi paper.  And who knows, it may be out.
I used the wood block stamp as two separate stamps by using wonderful post-its to cover up the side I didn't want stamped after inking one of the words.  I always get at least part of the stamp inked, so post-its are my protection.   I  glitzed up the card with gems and a great little tree embellishment.  It turned out cute.
