C4C 536-White on White

Hello Friends!

I am playing with the ladies over on the Crazy4challenges Blog.

Today's challege in honor of national white day is to create a white on White card.

Here is what I came up with...

This is a 5X7 card that I made for work because we have about 30 people in our department so when we send a card we need a lot of room to sign it.

I kept this mostly white but added just a touch of color with copic marker.

This card uses stamps from Stampendous and The stamps of life.

I need to make a few more because you never know when you need a sympathy card.

I hope you enjoyed my challenge card.

Be sure and check out all the cards at Crazy4challenges Blog

Merry and Bright

Happy Hump Day!

The Stampendous Team is sharing more "Merry and Bright" inspiration this week...basically anything Christmassy so I thought this fun House Mouse  image would be perfect to share.

This House Mouse Designs image is Nap by Candle.

I colored it with Prisma pencils.

The back ground was created by embossing the snowflakes from the winter White Cling stamp set

with Silver embossing powder.

The sentiment is from the Friend Wishes Perfectly clear set.

Warmest Wishes

Happy Monday!

I hope you had a great weekend.

Mine was very productive...got the tree up and the house decorated both inside and out!

Here in California, it's a little hard to get in the spirit when it's 75 degrees out but the decorations help.

This snowy card helps too!

I used Warmest Wishes from Stampendous.

It's one large image that is fun to color and makes it easy to make a quick card.

Of course adding the embossed snow adds that special final touch!

I hope you enjoyed todays card and that you find some time to stamp during the busy holiday season!

Thanks for stopping by today!
