Count Your Blessings

Crafty Creations Challenge

Paper and Such is sponsoring a challenge for the Crafty Creations blog this week.  The challenge is to make a Christmas B'day card and best of all - you could win a $10 gift certificate to Paper and Such!!!!!  Now, as some of you know, my b'day is the day after Christmas.  My parents were always good about keeping the two events separate - I never got b'day presents in leftover Christmas paper and I didn't have a "combined" present either.  They were good to make it feel like a special day.

Card details:

Stamps - Swirly Trees (PAS), PTI

Cardstock - SU, MME

Accessories - nesties, rhinestones

Snow Sweet!

This little guy is one of my newest additions from Sweet 'N Sassy stamps.  Isn't he just adorable!  I used several challenges on this one - Sweet 'N Sassy sketch (modified just a bit) and digi challenge too!

Card details:

Stamps - Holly Jolly Christmas (SNS)

Cardstock - SU, MME

Accessories - silver twine, copics, stickles, snowflakes
