Christmas Card Challenges #26 -- Use Bling

Happy Sunday to you.  We are at week 26 at Christmas Card Challenges and this week's optional challenge, in addition to making a new holiday or Christmas card is to use pearls and/or bling. I love adding pearls to my card.

That's all I have for you today. I hope you have a great day and don't forget to stop by Christmas Card Challenges to see what the other designers have this week and then I hope you'll play along with us.

Sponsor Spotlight on Sparkle Creations

This week's sponsor at Lollipop Crafts is the fabulous Sparkle Creations Rubber Stamps.  I've loved Sparkle's stamps from the beginning but haven't had much of a chance to play with them lately so I was happy to have this excuse to ink up Shopping Emily and make a card.  I had fun paper piecing all of Emily's shopping bags.

I love the sentiment that comes with her.  It's perfect for a friend who is struggling a bit lately but loves to shop and all things fashion.

As always, you know how much I truly appreciate you dropping by.  I wish you all a wonderful rest of the week.  Hugs!

Christmas Card Challenge #25

Welcome friends, it's time for this week's Christmas Card Challenges and there is a great sketch for you to play along with.  Remember, though, that the only real rule to play along is to make a Christmas or holiday card so that come December this year, you're ahead of the game.

Thanks for your visit.  I hope you have a lovely day today.  I'm off now to prepare a lesson for my church class.  Hugs and I'll see you back here later this week.

Lollipop Craft Challenge -- Just for Him

I'm happy to be participating in this week's challenge at Lollipop Crafts.  This week's challenge is to make a masculine card.

I made a card for my nephew, Joseph, who turned 14 yesterday.  Happy birthday Joseph.  This is in the mail, albeit late.
