RILEY2512, Frosty The Snowman!

Hello, this weeks challenge from Riley and Company is Hosted by Jovita, and she's challenging us to be inspired by a Christmas Song!

For my card today, I was inspired by Frosty The Snowman, so I used Snowman & Riley. I coloured him with copics and added stickles.

I used the Sweet Sunday Sketch SSSC173.

The card base is riding hood red, with a layer of white embossed with the Snow Flake EF. The dp is from Provo Craft holiday slab V, and the strip is bashful blue also embossed with a snowflake EF. I made the snowflakes with Martha Stewart punches and glitter paper.

Please join us in our challenge and upload your creation to the Riley and Company Blog!

Have a Great Day,
Laurie

TSMONDAY, Anything But A Card!

 Hello, this weeks Totally Stampalicious Monday Challenge is to make anything but a card! That should be pretty easy with Christmas coming, since it's a great time for gift card holders, treats etc.

For my project today, I altered one of those coupon holders you can get at Michaels in the $ section! I should have taken a before picture, but of course I forgot! This was SO easy, all I did was pick Christmas paper that matched the blue inside, and just glued it on top. There was an orange  elastic cord that wrapped around to keep it closed, so I took that out and added a silver one.

This is the new Stella Psycho, I coloured her with copics and added some liquid applique to her hat & glued some glitter on it. The sentiment is just one in the set. I stamped it on a tag made with the CuttleBug tiny tags die. I added the sentiment tag & the ribbon to the cording.
Here's the inside. I made one for each of our girls, Hubby & others, where I can put their lists, plus a section for receipts and coupons! These would make a good gift, and they're fast & inexpensive to make!

Please join us in our challenge, and upload your creation to the Totally Stampalicious Blog! Remember if you use a Totally Stampalicious image the prize is doubled!

Have a Great Day!

FMS63, Merry & Bright Snowmen!

 Hello, I made some cute little snowman cards to add to my Kards for Kids collection!

This is the Freshly Made Sketch FMS63, and the stamp set is SU Merry & Bright. For the card above I used riding hood red, white and dp from sei winter song pad. The red with polka dots was a piece I had in my scrap bin.
This one was made with garden green, white and dp from sei winter song pad. The strips were both found in my scrap bin.

I added some diamond stickles to the edge of the snow, and the strips were cut using the die-namics First place award ribbon die. I popped the circles up.

I hope the kids like these,
Have a Great Day!

RILEY2412, Colour Challenge!

 Hello, it's time for a Riley and Company Challenge! This weeks challenge is Hosted by Kelli, and she's challenging us to used the colour scheme Burgundy, Old Olive, and Cream. And as a bonus, create a card or project with the theme of gratitude and thanks!

Now I must confess, I read the challenge, obviously too quickly, and thought it was burgundy, any green and cream is you wanted and totally forgot the Thanks part! LOL

I used the newly released Carrying Tree clear set. I coloured Riley with copics and sponged the edges lightly with crumb cake (to make it look more cream!).

The card base is brave burgundy, with dp from K&Co. Christmas Cheer pad. The green is pear pizzazz, edges sponged with matching ink and always artichoke.

I did add some glitter, but I don't think it shows in the photo.
Here's the reverse side, the sentiment is included in the Carrying Tree set.

Please join us in our challenge, and upload your creation to the Riley and Company Blog, for your chance to win a Prize! If you upload to any forums, please make sure to use the keyword RILEY2412.

Have a Great Day!

TSMONDAY, Let It Snow!

Hello, this weeks Totally Stampalicious challenge is to add some snow! I decided to pull out my Snowmen set, I haven't used it in a while, and I need to make some snowman cards for the Kards For Kids Christmas drive so this will be perfect!

I stamped him on white along with the scarf and hat, then coloured them with copics.

The card base is real red, with white embossed with the snowflake EF. The frame in the center was made with the spellbinders Fleur De Lis Squares die.

The sentiment is from the Let it Snow Stella set.

Please play along in our challenge, and upload your card or creation to the Totally Stampalicious Blog. If you use a Totally Stampalicious image, the prize will be doubled!
