Something Green

Join me for our new challenge over at Christmas with the Cuties!  Our theme for this challenge is "Something GREEN" - add the color green somewhere on your card, or all over you card and don't forget, your creation must be Christmas themed and feature a cute image.  

We are a JUST FOR FUN challenge and I hope you will continue to play along for your chance to proudly display our Winners or Top 3 Badge.

This cute little gnome is from Conie Fong Art.  I started by uploading the image into Silhouette Studio and used the print and cut function (I hate fussy cutting!).  Copic markers were used to color the image then set to work on the layout.  The sentiment was one of many included in the Creative Stamping magazine, Issue 115.  

Now it's your turn to show us your Christmas project and make sure you check out the Design Team's creations for some inspiration and remember - projects must be Christmassy and have to be Cute!

Christmas Gnome Stack

GNOMES is the theme for our December challenge at Christmas Craft Creations!   

Our challenge will run until January 10th so make sure to upload your creation by then for your chance to win a special prize.

        

The image is Christmas Gnome Stack by Conie Fong Art.  I printed the image on copic paper then went to work coloring. After coloring I put it through my Silhouette Cameo and was very disappointed when the blade didn't cut through the paper so I ended up fussy cutting (which I really don't like doing!) to salvage the images.  

I pulled out my brand new Stacked Merry Die-namics by MFT and cut three layers of white and one layer of contrasting color then glued them all together to create a stack,  After choosing the background papers, I glued the die-cuts into position, applied foam tape to the back of the image and placed it next to the sentiment.  To finish it off, a button and some baker's twine.

Thanks so much for stopping by and don't forget to jump over to CCC and check out the fabulous creations by our Design Team.

This little fella is Wreath Gnome and he's so darn cute I can't stand it!!  I colored him with Copic makers then fussy cut around him.  I used my Cricut Joy to cut the letters then used foam tape on all to create the word "Jolly".
