November Card Chain Challenge Reveal

 Time to Reveal the Card I made for the Card Chain Challenge.

I was tempted to use the color challenge of White, White & White, but just didn't have it in me, so I chose patterned paper and friendship.  I've used this die several times in the past month or so.  I have actually used patterned paper for both the top blue layer and and the bottom silver & pale lavender layer.  I did color the flowers with Copics and used Nuvo drops on the flowers and butterflies.  I really like how the leaves turned out.

Supplies:

Poppy Stamps Fern and Daisy Pop Up Easel set
Waffle Flower Hello Friends Sentiments stamps & matching dies

Nuvo Crystal Drops -  Gloss - Ebony Black & Red Berry
Nuvo Crystal Drops - Red Sunstone
Copic markers
Patterned paper in stash

A Craft Roulette Card Again

 Last Friday, I watched Craft Roulette and got some great ideas from the Chatter Boxes, a fun name for all the people giving interpretations and suggestions on the categories spit out by the Wheel.

Here's the Wheel's categories
Project: Card with Belly Band - Santa's belt (right above the coat trim
Colors: Cottage - reds, blues, white
Element: Coat(s) - Santa's wearing a coat
Random: Upcycled - scene panel was front of a Xmas card from a friend

It was so much fun putting this together and I do think this Santa is fun.

Supplies:
Rubbernecker "Santa Needs A Hug" stamp & matching die (not avail)
Store bought Christmas card front saved from a card I received
Elizabeth Craft Sentiment die cut (in my bag of sentiments)
Distress Oxide Faded Jeans sponged on card base and sentiment panel
Copic markers

I  decided to cut around the figure of this fairy and I like the way this turned out.  I couldn't resist purple hair, really who could.  I remembered this pack of 6 X 6 paper pack and found the background I wanted.  I have no idea who the company is because it is not anywhere on the pack. I do rather like this.
