Bugaboo Love

Hello Everyone!

Today marks another challenge at PINspirational. Before I get to the inspiration pin I want to share my card with you, enjoy!

This adorable shaker card features two digital stamps from our
sponsor, Bugaboo Stamps.

I decided to leave the couple white because I thought it had enough
color around the card.
Any more and it would have been too distracting. 

I really enjoy the sentiment with its large lettering 

and it seems to not distract but adds to the design.

This card looks gigantic. However, the size is a normal 4x6

format. Just a bit larger than the A2 card.

Challenges Entered:
Come and Get It Challenges: 3 or more layers

My husband has it made every Valentines Day! Why? Because I am not a fan of receiving flowers. Chocolate, bring it on, but flowers I'll pass thank you very much. Sure, flowers are pretty the first few days you receive them but then after a couple of days, they start to brown and wilt. Leave them long enough and they start to smell... For me, flowers are meant for the earth to live a long and pretty life. 

Well, that should do it for me. I hope you enjoyed your stay but more importantly, I hope you join our challenge at PINspirational. Until then take care and happy stamping!

All the best,

Shawna

White on White Mistletoe

Hello All,

I hope this post finds you well and ready for the coming weeks of the New Year! For today I am playing with Come and Get It Challenge and Creative with Stamps. Here is my card for today, enjoy!

The monochromatic white-on-white color scheme
seems to make this card elegant and timeless.

Lots of festive sparkle and shine topped off
 with a white paper and vellum bow.
Rhinestones are sprinkled around and within the mistletoe.

Below: Detail view of the sparkly mistletoe and vellum bow. The view above/left shows the card in light and
below/right shows the card not in light, casting all sorts of beautiful shadows.

   

Challenges Entered:
Come and Get It Challenge: Christmas
Creative with Stamps: Challenge #9- Use a Christmas Stamp

Wrapping is the bane of my existence this time of year. Usually, I bare down on Christmas Eve and just get it done... While wrestling with the paper, it gets me a bit ornery knowing I am doing all this fussy work only to have it be ripped open in a few short hours... So, here I am once again with Christmas breathing down my neck and have yet to wrap one single gift...Tis' the season to procrastinate, I guess!! I think the movie A Christmas Story 24-hour marathon on TBS has my name written all over it, again.

So cheery tonight... Yikes! Anyway, I want to thank you for stopping by my corner of the internet. I hope to see you soon in Blogland. Until then take care and happy stamping!

All the best,
Shawna
