Zany Christmas at ABC Christmas Challenge

"Z" is for Zany at ABC Christmas Challenge!  We want to see your funny / humorous Christmas projects you have created.  Our sponsor for this challenge is Bugaboo Stamps, how fitting!  The winner will receive 7 digis of their choice, woo hoo!



For my card I used Stella by Bugaboo Stamps. I just love her attitude and thought this sentiment stamp by Stampendous was quite fitting!  

The papers are from my stash, as well as the purple snowflake and tinsel ribbon.  I added glossy accents to Stella's glasses and shoes.

Y is for You Make It!

It's challenge time at ABC Christmas Challenge! Our theme for this challenge is YOU make it!  We are looking for homemade embellishments that you have created!

Our sponsor for this challenge is Stamp Fairy, the winner will receive a $10 gift certificate to their store!

Okay ... ever have an idea that looks great in your mind but when it comes to creating it just doesn't translate?!  With that being said, I give you permission to laugh at my, well ... poinsettia is what I was aiming for!



At least the image is adorable!  I chose Jake Poinsettia to work with, isn't he cute!  The, ahem, poinsetta that I made came from pop can tabs and a whole lot of glue from my glue gun.  Seriously, it makes me laugh every time I look at it!

After my embellishment experience, I look forward to your creations!  Make sure you check out the creations from our Design Team, they are amazing!

Christmas Stockings at Christmas Cards all year 'Round

December already!? Well, no denying it so let's get on with December's Challenge at CCAY!  Our theme for December is Christmas Stockings.



For my card I used the adorable digi stamp set by From the Heart but unfortunately I don't see it in their shop anymore.  The papaers are from the Merry & Bright Collection by Carta Bella, I love their colors!

I used my copic markers to add some color to the image then some stickles to the stocking and glossy accents to the candy canes.  The stocking embellie is from my stash and thought it quite appropriate for this theme!
