Simon Says Santa Tags

Today I have some fun Santa tags to share for the Happy Little Stampers Anything Goes with Dies challenge!

I used Tim Holtz tags and embossing folders, and Simon Says Picture Book Santa.

He's such a QT!

Then I opened up my Christmas die cut box and found snowflakes and sentiments to add here and there. They were lots of fun to make!

I hope you will join us!

Frantic Stamper Glam Birthday

Birthday cards!! I need to stock up on those...and Frantic Stamper has some fun dies to use from their new December release.

I used the gorgeous Stitched Rose Swirl Background die (FRA-DIE-10742)....I love the pretty pattern! Then I cut out cute high heals from the Shoe Closet set. (FRA-DIE-10748) This set has one large shoe, like the one I used for my card, plus 4 other cute shoes, all a bit smaller in size.

The sentiment is from (FRA-CL-142) Friends stamp set. The set has 14 stamps, with some really fun sentiments. I chose of the birthday ones. Lastly, I added a few jewels to the shoe.

The Paper Players Color Challenge

LeAnne has a color challenge at The Paper Players today:

Loving this combo!!

I used some distress ink and the Frantic Stampers Snowfall stencil for my background.

Then I cut out Frantic Stampers Jumbo Ornate Snowflake and Antique Sled. I LOVE this cute sled....I used some silver foil and wood grain paper. Then I added the sentiment and tag from Frantic Stampers Tiny Tags. A bit of silver cord and blue bells and the card was done!

Tis the Season

Happy Little Stampers Christmas Challenge begins today.

The option is to use a candy cane, which I did!

I found a tiny one in my cut outs along with a cute Santa hat for my lil puppy from Spellbinders.

He's sitting on top of the sentiment "Tis the Season" from Creative Expressions.

I used some fun plaid paper from my stash.

I hope you will play along!!

Frantic Stamper Frosty the Snowman

Guess what? It's my turn to be hostess at The Paper Players this week....and

I chose Frosty the Snowman for the theme!! You can listen to it here....I just love that song. AND the show, it's a must every year.

Nance did an awesome job on the challenge badge too:

Cute!!

For my Frosty I used Frantic Stampers Little Snowmen die set...it comes with 3...and I chose this little guy for my card. The trees are from Frantic Stampers Snowy Backdrop Scene. The snowflake background I made with Frantic Stampers reverse-cut Snowflake Circles...what a pretty die that is!

For the sentiment I chose Frantic Stampers Eight Tiny Tag set and the Tiny Tag Greetings stamps. There are no embellishments on this card, but I did pop up the snowman a bit.

Dies R Us Winter White challenge

Hi everyone!

This week the challenge at Dies R Us is Winter White.

Immediately I thought of Amy Designs Vintage Winter die...it's a gorgeous winter scene with beautiful snowflakes hanging down.

I also cut out NOEL from Creative Expressions in white glitter paper, and adhered it in the center. Then I added some tiny white pearls in the snowflake centers. I backed it all on blue card stock.
