A Christmas Blessing

 


Today I am posting my card for the The Encore Challenge!  This is a monthly challenge to be posted on the 25th with a group of friends from my April Retreat.  Some may post on their blog and I will note those with blogs at the end of this post.  And, some might post on other social media. Darlene came up with this challenge and these are her words:  Go and grab a stamp set, stencil or dies--your choice, that you have used once before and have always wanted to revisit it and use it again.  However, despite your best intentions, you have yet to use it!  Now's your chance! Go dig it out and have fun with it once again.  Create anything you like, a card, gift card holder, decorate a gift bag, make a refrigerator magnet...whatever lights up your creative juices! So--Encore Challenge! 




My plan is to pick a different company each month to highlight and maybe even a different product than the month before.  For November,  I picked a stamp set from Verses Rubber Stamps called A Christmas Blessing. 

I decided to pick a sheet of 6x6 Christmas patterned paper to stamp the sentiment.  I decided on a Unity Stamp pack called Old Fashioned Holiday from the November 2023 Whit Kit.  I love the vintage images and picked one that had an open area to stamp.  I think the Christmas tree and chair in the corner is too cute.  I used Versafine Onyx Black ink as the wording is quite small in some areas.   I layered the panel on a Garden Green cardstock and added no bling!





I am not sure who will post each month on their blog, but this is a list of the other ladies who do have blogs.  JeanetteTerryDarlene Be sure to come back on December 25th to see another fun card for The Encore Challenge!

A Christmas Blessing


This is my card for our November swap for my local stamp store called Polka Dots.  The theme is Winter or Christmas Cards.  I went with on of my favorite Christmas stamps from Verses called A Christmas Blessing.  I used some fun Designers Series Paper from Stampin' Up called Presents & Pinecones. I added a strip of wide Cherry Cobbler Stitched Edge Grosgrain Ribbon.


Here is the inside of my card:



I am sure I will get back some beautiful holiday cards!

Easter Brings


This is card #4 for my A Card A Week Challenge.  January is Fancy Folds and here is my final card for the month.  I made an offset gate fold card and decided on an Easter card.  I used some a package of patterned paper from Doodlebug called Easter Assortment on both of the flaps and along the sentiment on the front. I also added some pink Baker's Twine along the sentiment.  The sentiment is from Verses Rubber Stamps and is called Easter Brings.  


Here are two additional photos, showing the panels.




Here is the card fully opened, with another strip of the patterned paper:



I really like the look of this card and hope you do too.

I hope you will stop back for the next Tuesday to see my next card with the February theme--use a sketch from SCS!
