Another Challenge!

I made this card to send to my Nana for Christmas and also for a few challenges. Mojo Monday has a great sketch goin' on, very sweet and simple! And also The Pink Elephant Challenge blog has a theme challenge this week of Winter/and or Christmas.

This adorable Angel is another Krista Schnieder/Sunshine Designs stamp. I've had it forever and actually made my Christmas cards with it about 3 years ago. I didn't realize how much I loved it until I pulled it out again and dusted her off a bit!!!

For this card I used my copics and shaded around the image with prismacolor pencils. I also added Stickles to her wings and halo. The card base and solid cardstock is all Bazzill and the dp is from Cosmo Cricket - Jolly by Golly. I inked around some of the edges with my chalk ink and used my scalloped nestie to mount the image onto. I also used my favourite tool these days the bow-easy to tie the pretty organza bow and easy-peasy it was finished!!!

Its always fun joining in on challeges, there's so much talent out there, what inspiration!

Thanks for stopping by!

Oh, if I don't get a chance to make another post before the 25th, have a very Merry Christmas! Wishing you a safe and happy holiday season!

Snickerdoodles!!!

These were the cookies I made for a cookie exchange I had at work today. These have recently become my favourite, (to eat and bake), not to mention the name, don't you just love saying 'Snickerdoodle'?. They are soft and chewy and with the cinnamon sugar coating I'm in heaven!!! They are also very easy to make. I included the recipe and couldn't resist inking up something on the tag. This is an image by Krista Schneider of Sunshine Designs. I've had this stamp forever and thought this cute little elf would go perfect. I coloured him using my glaze pens and copics (time was of the essence and I couldn't fiddle like I usually do). To see a bigger picture you can double click on the photo! You can find the yummy recipe here! Tis the season to be baking, or eating....lol!
