This week I was able to finally find a paper pack I've been searching for so I was so super excited to use it for this card.  



I printed this image on a light pink wood grained paper.  Then I added pink foiling to the Santa to keep with the pink/gold paper theme.  Love it!

HIMCR #381 - Christmas Colors!

Hello! It's that time again!

This weeks challenge is Christmas colors and well the common, I guess, colors would be Green and red?  But I'm noticing more and more that Christmas is being celebrated in all 
kinds of different colors.

              The giveaway is 3 online sets from The Cutting Cafe!



         I decided since I was working with Snowmen to go with the            standard Christmas winter wonderland with the white and                                                        blue colors.  
       It's hard to see in this photo but the snow flakes on the card is                                      heat embossed in white.  
              The "Winter Wonderland" is also embossed in silver.  

                The snow on the bottom of the card is a textured 
            snow paste I had in my stash.  It added a little dimension.  

Thanks for stopping by and taking a look.  

I hope you will play along and enter the challenge.

HIMCR #379- Thank You!!

Hello, it's that time again,

 HIMCR #379 - Thank you!

Doesn't have to be a card! You can scrapbook something you are thankful for!

The sponsor for this weeks challenge

 is Ike's!

The giveaway is $15 gift certificate to Ike's Art!

We got to choose between 4 -5 images and the cornucopia is the one that I chose. 

I printed 2 of them.  One I colored with water color pencils and the other I colored with alcohol markers.  I asked my daughter (19) which one she like the best and she chose the brighter colored one done with marker.

I Tried all the different colored card stock behind this cornucopia and well nothing look good except white.  I found this white rippled paper and thought it looked perfect.

I added the little "Happy Thanksgiving" tag which is just paper cut into squares and my own handwriting.  

I felt like it was still needing something else and that was when I decided to add the twine on the side.     

Thanks for stopping by and taking a look.  Hope you will enter your "Thank You" themed paper craft. 

Over at Hiding in my craft room.



Thank you!
