Down the Chimney

     One more card for the Holiday Chaos challenges, Day 4 at Catch the Bug.  The theme today is CAS = Clean As Snow.  :-D


     This card has clean snow (with white glitter on the snow and the star) and it's another of my CAS designs.  It has a colored image (ProMarkers) which was die cut (Bo Bunny), an embossed frame (also Bo Bunny), a thin strip of ribbon, and a handmade bow for embellishment.

     Challenges:
613 Avenue Create
AAA Cards
Allsorts
Cut It Up (top row)
Di's Digi Designs
Dragonfly Dreams
Glitter 'n Sparkle
Stella Says Sketch
Sweet Stampin'
Take It, Make It
Winter Wonderland

     Here's another Bugaboo card and this one is done for the Catch the Bug Holiday Chaos, Day 5 - "Humor."


I started with the sketch from Outlawz.


     I dearly love all the Crab Cat images and this one isn't actually intended to be a Christmas image but I was pretty sure it would work as one with that sentiment I made up and with traditional red and green colors. 

     He's colored with ProMarkers, and die cut with a die from Cheery Lynn.  The doily is also a Cheery Lynn die cut.  The twine has been in my Christmas stash for nearly 3 years and I decided it was time to use some of it.  

     Challenges:

      I hope you're not tired of double post days yet.  I still have at least one more day of 2 posts.  Does it help that I've been alternating between holiday and non-holiday cards?  :-D  Happy Stamping.  NanaConnie
