'Tis the Season with Gingerbread Cookies

'TIS THE SEASON is the theme for our new challenge at Creative Knockouts!

We have a fabulous sponsor so make sure to upload your creation for your chance to win a special prize from Pattie's Creations!

I took the image Ginger Bread Cookie and copied it multiple times in different sizes then went to work coloring with Copic markers.  The black background was created by coloring with the black marker, spritzed with gold shimmer spray.  I used the Merry die-cut on gold as well as two layers of black cardstock to created some dimension.  The word "Christmas" was embossed using gold embossing powder.

Make sure you check out the amazingly creative creations from our Design Team then it's your turn to start creating!

Favorite Cookie

 Non-traditional Christmas Colors is our theme for our August challenge at Christmas Craft Creations! I love this theme, Christmas is no longer about red and green and it get's your creative juices flowing.  

I purchased this stamp set, Favorite Cookie by Create a Smile last year and this is the first time I've used it and won't be my last.  

I created the background using Distress Inks (sorry, can't remember to colors) then spritzed water overtop.  To create the snowbank I used Hillside Border dies and added Stickles along the bank for some snow sparkle.

I colored the images with Copic markers and added a few accents with a white gel pen and added glossy accents to various parts.  You will note that the glossy accents look different, well it bubbled with the heat gun - why use a heat gun you ask .... well it looked a bit bare so I decided to stamp snowflakes using Versamark and white embossing powder hence the need for the heat gun.  Note to self - use glossy accents as the last, last step.  

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.

Gingerbread Goodness

It's time for the letter "G" at ABC Christmas Challenge!  Our challenge theme for this challenge is "Girl or Guy" creations, easy peasy.  

Our sponsor is none other than Bugaboo Stamps.  The winner will receive 7 digis of their choice!

This was pretty quick and easy to put together - exactly my type of card!

I colored Kitchen Ginger Spoon with my Copic markers and added glossy accents to a few spots and used Frosted Lace Stickles on the frosting.  The paper is from the Mistletoe Collection by Bo Bunny and I added some ribbon as a border between the two papers.

The tag was created by using a tag punch by Creative Memories.  The sentiment is from the Remarkable Wreath stamp set by Close to My Heart.
