{BYSHC} Falling for the Holidays 2025 Linky Party - Happy Holidays!

 This will have to be my last entry for the {BYSHC} Falling for the Holidays 2025 Linky Party! I have a Halloween Party to get ready for tonight....and it's my last prepared card base! ;)

What an amazing week! I created so many cards and had a blast doing it! Pretty sure my messy desk is worse now that it was when I started! ;) 

I followed {BYSHC} Sketch 45 for this one! Cute reindeer and sentiment from Taylored Expressions Fluffy Friends - Holiday, tag cut with Unity Stamp Co. Make a Tag Nesting Dies, twine from May Arts Ribbons, enamel dots from Gina Marie Designs, papers are from Stampin Up, colored with King Art Alcohol Markers! Whew.....and that's a wrap! 

{BYSHC} Sketch #45 - Llama Greetings!

 The {BYSHC} Sketch #45 is going through the end of the month! The sponsor this month is Newton's Nook Designs! I've been trying to use the sponsor's product along with the sketch....the only semi-Christmas stamp I have from NND is this Llama! LOL So you use what you have! LOL

I started with a white card base and to that I added some patterned paper that's been in my stash forever! The piece I used was a scrap and was just enough paper to cover!  I did use an edge die from Pink Fresh Designs to create the center point. The llama (it's called Llama delivery, but has been retired; however I did just see one on eBay!) was stamped onto white cardstock and then cut with a tag die from Newton's Nook Designs called fancy edges tag die set. The sentiment is from Unity Stamp Co., looks to be no longer available. My apologies!

Happy May! {BYSHC} Sketch 45

 Happy May! With the beginning of a new month comes a new sketch and a new sponsor at {BYSHC}! This month's sponsor is Newton's Nook Designs! 

Today's card features a retired (and unfortunately no longer available) adorable Llama set! It's called Llama delivery. I started with the snowflake background which is kraft cardstock, Snowflake Frenzy  background stamp from Unity Stamp Co., versamark embossing pad and Gina K. Designs white embossing powder. After the embossing powder had been melted I die cut it and a piece of red scrap using a Pink Fresh Studio edge die from the set called classic edgers (which also appears to no longer be available). The plaid paper is from a 6x6 pad from PhotoPlay called Its a Wonderful Christmas. I stamped and die cut the llama and then colored with Tombow ABT markers. I added a vellum circle behind to break it up a bit and then stamped and die cut the sentiment! Added some foam tape and enamel dots from Gina Marie Designs.

This sketch runs through the end of the month! As I said at the beginning....Newton's Nook Designs is our sponsor for this month's prize! $20 gift card to spend in the store AND a 15% off coupon code! Use the code BYSH at checkout for 15% off all winter and Christmas items!
