'W is for Wishes'
&
'X is for Xmas'
Our sponsor for this challenge is Fred She Said:
Prize - $10 Gift Certificate!
There's also a little prize from Sharon:
An adorable LOTV rubber stamp!
I made a card for each of the two themes...but kept used the same clean and simple design on both. I used Penny Black images, coloured using watercolour pencils, carefully cut out and mounted on my card blanks using 3D foam pads. On my 'W is for Wishes' card, the image is called 'Monkey See, Monkey Do' and the sentiment is from a set by Pollycraft for C. C. Designs.
On my 'X is for Xmas' card, the image is called 'Bedecked Antlers', and the sentiment stamp is from the 'Scribbly Christmas' set by Tim Holtz for Stampers Anonymous...I altered it slightly by masking off the 'Christ' part of the word 'Christmas', and drawing in an 'X' to replace it.
I'm also entering these cards into the following challenges:
- Happy Little Stampers (Christmas) - Anything Goes (Optional CAS)
- Less is More - Dimension
- Penny Black Inc - Holiday Cards
- Penny Black & More - Make Someone Smile (Who wouldn't smile at a cow with decorated antlers!?)
- Simon Says Stamp (Wednesdays) - Anything Goes
Two super CAS style Christmas cards which definitely made me smile, many thanks for joining in with our 'Make someone smile' theme at Penny Black and More challenge.

ReplyDeleteThese look so cute! i love your coloring and it's a great idea to mount a die cute shape on white base -the white lines around the image bring a lot of extra interest and dimension. Perfect for our challenge! Thank you for joining us at Less Is More!
