Polka Dot Orchard!

 Since it is the season of all things sweets and cookies.....I created this sweet card with all the sweets and cookies ready to share!



Used a digital set from Polka Dot Orchard called Cookies for Santa!  Digital stamps are so fun because you can make them big, make them smaller, print multiple copies so you can cut and paste.....over and over again!  I fussy cut the cookie border, distressed with Vintage Photo Oxide.  Cut out a select few "cookies" to color and sprinkle with sparkly glitter and pop up for dimension.

Hoping to keep the blog busy in the coming new year!  


Unity Stamp Co. December Sketch Challenge

 Unity Stamp Company is sponsoring a sketch challenge running the month of December!  I love a good sketch!  Lets be honest, we all could use a little help with being creative!  Sketches provide that inspiration for me!

This is the latest submission that I have entered.


Created a watercolored/ink smooshed background.  Added some gold gilding flakes to the corners.  Stamped one of the beautiful butterflys from Grow.Transform. Evolve and used the new Many More Birthday's stamp and coordinating die!
