WHAT IF? WEDNESDAY AT THE HOUSE THAT STAMPS BUILT

Merry Christmas, blog friends! 

I hope you all have a wonderful and joyous Christmas with family and friends.  

The House That Stamps Built (blog for Repeat Impressions Stamps), has a new sketch challenge for you.  

I'm still in the mood to make Christmas cards, so here's my interpretation of Wendy's sketch this week.  

Stamps used:  RI#413-H "Let Heaven", RI#2012 "Tiny Pontsettia" and RI#2012-H "Pontsettia".   

This was a really fun sketch challenge.  I hope you'll find some time to join us this week.  The challenge details can be found at The House.

CAS ANGELS CHALLENGE AT OUTLAWZ CHALLENGES

Greetings, blog friends!  

Today on the Clean and Simple challenge at Outlawz Challenges there's a new challenge by Cara.  Here is her challenge:

December is my favorite time of year ... I love the lights and the music and all the fun decorations for the Holiday season! It's also my birthday this month and as long as I can remember, my mother has given me Angels for my birthday. They are a sweet reminder that I was born during a very special time and they truly fascinate me on every level. I love them and have them all over my house, even when it is not Christmastime. This week your challenge is to create a card or project with an angel - or angel wings. 

Just remember - have fun and keep it clean and simple!

My card was created in memory of my mother who recently passed away from Alzheimer's Disease.  She was my angel.

The background for this card was stenciled using a new Stencil by Memory Box called "Winter Tiny Snowflakes" I recently purchased from Beverly at Classy Cards N Such (and right now she's having an awesome sale).  I stenciled the snowflakes on a layer of Papertrey Ink "Spring Rain".  The sentiment came from an older Flourishes stamp set and the white feathers were purchased at Michaels.  

We hope you'll join the challenge this week.  

Thank you so much for stopping by and I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas!
