Happy Hump Day Everyone!  Here we are sneaking up on Christmas quicker than I am ready for!  I don't know about you but I've still got much to do.  I haven't spent much time in my craft room lately. Today I'm sharing a card I made on Saturday when it was so bitterly cold outside.  I used the sketch from one of my favorite challenge blogs,  Unscripted Sketches for this card.      I used paper from the Frosted paper pack for this card.  This blue snowflake piece of paper is my favorite out of this whole pack.  I used Framework Alphabet to stamp the word JOY.  I love the line drawn look of this alphabet stamp so in order to keep the drawn lines showing I stamped JOY onto the Champagne Cardstock and then again onto the Frosted Turquoise Cardstock.  The Frosted Turquoise letters were cut out and adhered on top of the stamped letters on the Champagne cardstock.  Look closely at the picture to the left - you can see...

Ready for another sneak peek?  Today I'm sharing a card I created with the new Frosted Paper pack (X7175B) . For this card I used Pattern #29 from the new Make It From Your Heart Volume 2 (9042) .   The stamp is Classy Doily (B1424) .  This stamp coordinates with the Artiste Cricut Cartridge (Z790)  for perfect stamping and no fussy cutting!  I stamped the image three times cutting portions of the doily out so that I could layer them.  I used Sky and Indian Corn Blue Alcohol markers to color the snowflake.   Blush  adds just a bit of color to the top star.  For extra shimmer I added Stardust Glitz Glitter Gel (Z1313) .   "Merry Christmas" is from the set Holiday Tags (D1560) You can see this card and more at my Open House on Saturday, August 10 from 9am - 1pm!
