For this week's challenge, I created the background by stamping the smaller stamps from the Waltzing Mouse called Warm Fuzzies and a snowflake stamp from Hero Arts. I then added the largest bird stmp and coloured it with Copics.

This week at Crafty Hazelnut’s Christmas Challenge we are looking for stocking. I think of tockings and automatically think of the stocking were hung by the fire with care…. I used my Cricut and a lovely Fireplace 3D box card by My Scrap Chick. I cut it out using various cardstock from my stash and embossed the fireplace with a brick-patterned embossing folder.

Crafty Hazelnut’s Christmas Challenge 458 – sentiment as the focal point
This week the Crafty Hazelnut’s Christmas Challenge Design Team challenges you to make a card with the sentiment as the focal point. I used a number of different elements to this card. I started with a debossed background. Next, I used smooshed technique and die cut a frame. I used a Joy sentiment with a nativity design as the “O”. The final detail was adding a ribbon to bring the overall design together
I look forward to seeing everyone’s designs.
52 Christmas Card Throwdown Challenge – 52CCT37-19 – Sketch Challenge

The stamp is by Clearly Besotted, LET’S PRANCE. I coloured the image with Copics and Distressed Ink. I used a circle die and snowflake button.

Crafty Hazelnut’s Patterned Paper Challenge – October 2019
For all our challenges here at Crafty Hazelnut’s Patterned Paper Challenge, we encourage you to use your patterned paper. All to often we card crafters have a tendency to hoard our patterned paper. For my card, I used a wonderful SVG file from Dreaming Tree Designs called For the Ladies. The sentiment is from Gina K.
I look forward to seeing your patterned paper put to good use.
