Merry Christmas Gnomies Card featuring Kat Scrappiness

  Hello Crafty Friends - I am here with this month's Die Cut Divas Challenge card.

Our sponsor is this month is Kat Scrappiness, and they are offering a Kat Scrappiness gift package worth $100!  Unfortunately, due to high shipping cost, this prize could only be awarded to a winner (randomly selected) with a valid U.S. address.


Our challenge theme for November is: All About the Holidays
(Any Holidays).

This is the card I created featuring the Christmas Gnomes Stamp Set. I went almost non-traditional colors. I added a bit of pink and a brighter green. I used a bit of my older stash with My Mind's Eye Christmas collection. I thought the trees pattern paper was perfect for this adorable gnome tangled in lights and ornaments.

Thank you for stopping by the blog today. I hope you found some inspiration!

Easter Blessings with Kat Scrappiness

Wait! What? Did I type, Easter? Really? Yup, I'm not a fan of winter. So, I'm just skipping ahead a few months (ok, more than a few). I guess, it's not even really winter yet. Backing up a bit, let's start at the beginning. For the month of November, we're sponsored by Kat Scrappiness who will be giving our winner a fabulous gift package, valued at $100. However, due to shipping costs, the winner must have a valid US mailing address. 


Our challenge this month is 

ALL ABOUT THE HOLIDAYS


So, you see, I just picked Easter! Here's my card


For my card, I used Kat Scrappiness' Layered Tulip Bouquet die set and Never Ending Oval Craft dies. For specific details on how I created my card, please check out my foleysfriend blog.

We'd love to see your Holiday creations in our gallery this month. This might be a great opportunity to work on your Christmas cards - or Easter cards, LOL!

Have a great, crafty day!
