oh holy night

The All sorts challenge was light… and it was  to include a candle but I think the star is definitely a light and Jesus is the light of the  world,not to mention the Christmas season and his halo is a light too so two out of three ain’t bad, or is it?  The stamp is oh holy night by Inkadinkado and the swirls are cuttlebuhed on the navy paper, the shape is a Spellbinder nestie die.

simply frog

The simplicity – One Layer Wonder Challenge was what really got you hooked on stamping?  I guess although I love the idea that i didn’t have to draw to craft cards, it was the embossing that hooked me… my  favorite stamps were frogs  and my most favorite stamp set is “unfroggetable” by Stampin up… so here’s my entry  embossed in black colored with twinkling h2’os. back to the beginning i guess

tree and gifts

The one layer wonder challenge today was to use a card as inspiration and i sort-of copied it with presents instead of birds… cant wait to see what others did. the challenge is here  olw30 . both the tree and presents are Stampin’ up from different sets. the tree is embossed then i masked the hills and bayered  the sky. then stamped the presents. I did add stickles on top to look like a tree star but it didn’t scan well.
