Stamptacular Sunday Challenges, a DIGI Christmas Bear, and MORE!




It is Stamptacular Sunday Challenge!  This week's challenge is HIDE and SEEK!  Make a card or project and hide the sentiment.  Robyn's Fetish is one of this week's prize sponsors.  I chose to work with this adorable Christmas Bear image.  Isn't he cute!  I chose to make a topper mini card fold for my  card to hide a sentiment inside.  Click on the picture at the right to see a closer view.  And, believe it or not my big bow holds it close!  Ta Da!  A fun little clever way to keep it closed that just sort of happened.  Love those crafting "moments."  
I am using some assorted designer papers that I have in my stash.  I have had this one awhile.  I printed my digital image in the size that I wanted, colored it, and added some fun layers and detailing to create a fun Christmas card!  The sentiment on the inside is from PTIs Signature Christmas set. 

One Stitch At A Time:  Christmas Themed!
Paper Sundaes:  For the Boys! 
CR84Fun1: Cupcake's Creation Color Challenge with Mona ( Red, Green, and Tan)!
4 Crafty Chicks:  Roll with the Punches!
Southern Girls Challenge #4:  Glitter it Up!  I used sakura glitter pens on the white parts of the candy canes! 
The ABC Challenge:  G is for Glitter! 
Mark's Finest Papers:  Holiday Card!
Wee Memories:  Anything Goes!
The Shabby Tea Room Week 33:  Consider it CASED!   I chose Pattie Goldman's card to case. I tried to keep the same layout.  I changed the color and theme.  I did include an animal even if mine is a stuffed one.   Also, I used a digi image from Robyn's Fetish!  Plus, I just recently won some blog candy from Pattie and received it already!    WOW!  I really heart all of my stuff.  Thanks so much, Pattie!
The Crafty Purple Frog Challenge:  Anything Goes!   
Papertake Weekly Challenge:  Sparkly and Bright!
Totally Stampalicious:  BIG RED BOW!  Got it covered!






As always, thanks so much for stopping by!

  8. That image is beyond adorable and fabulously coloured, Betty! Love the red trim and the ribbon is delicious. Fabulously done! Had a giggle at your trying to figure out what I was reading. Had to use a smaller book so I could actually get it to lay flat when taking the picture. Am actually reading Diana Gabaldon Outlander series and it is totally addicting!!! Love her!
