W and X are for....DT cards for ABC Christmas Challenge

It's november and time to two new letters at 

ABC Christmas Challenge.

 

Lynda is our host this month, and the letters-and themes- are:

 

W is for WHIMSICAL

and/or

X is for XEROX 

 

 

First out is my W for Whimsical.

 

For this cute Christmas card I've used an old image

from Whipper Snapper called Gingerbread House.

I must admit that it is the first time I've used it-

shame on me!

 

 

The papers are from Wild Rose Studio, the sentiment from LOTV

and the embossing folder from Cuttlebug.

 

The next cards are the X for Xerox,

Four of them.

 

I wanted to make four cards like this, but the die was 

really tricky and I had to run it through the cutter several

times to make all the pine twigs (is this the right word?)

 

 

So I decided to make two pine cards and two

with snowflakes.


 

But all of them with the same embossed tekst 

saying 'Happy Christmas'

 

 

Four more cards for mi Christmas card pile, well

five with the Whipper Snapper one.

 

 

 
The prize this time is given by Lynda.

 

P,Q and R are for...., DT cards for ABC Christmas Challenge.

It's the first Wednesday in August, and time for some new letters at 

ABC Christmas Challenge.

 

Lindsey is our host and the letters are:

 

P for Plump (Robin, Father Christmas, Pudding)

Q for Quality Street ( use the chocolates or the colours)

 

R for Ribbon

 

 This time I've made three cards, but I couldn't find anything

fot the Q for Quality Street, so there are two P cards.

First out a P for Plump (Father Christmas)

The image is an old Whipper Snapper called 'Santa Face'.

 

And the papers are from??, I'm on vaccation in Denmark at the moment, 

and I can't remember the brand and have no chance to check it.

The sentiment is from LOTV.

 

Card number two is also with an oldie, this time

from Forever Friends. 

The papers are from Photoplay.

The hearts are punched out, and the holy border

made with a Martha Stewart punch.

And at last I had to use 'Snowy' from Penny Black.

Papers here form Maja Design, and a snowflake

made in glitter foam with a die from Merianne Design...(I think)

Lindsey is giving this wonderful prize to a lucky winner.

T for Trio!

So we want you to use a sketch for your project or 

use three of something. Remember you can go for the S theme or

the T theme or you can combine the two. 

If you are using a sketch we would love to see it.

I have blown dust of an old Whipper Snapper image called

'Best Friends Trio'. As you might know I have a soft spot

for snowmen, they are cute and easy to colour.

The stiched and scalloped dies are new to me,

they are from Die-namics.

The last one is made with paper from Maja Design.
