CCEE Play with Their Fav Holiday Stamps

This week's challenge will be our last challenge for 2017 as we all want to take a little time to concentrate on family and friends. Of course we will be back on 4th January to start another year for fun challenges, hope to see you here too!  The challenge for the CCEE Stampers is to make a card with your favorite holiday stamp.  Be sure to visit the CCEE Blog to see the favs of this ultratalented and wonderful DT.

I have to honestly say that I have too many fav stamps to really pic one, but since I had to I went with this poinsettia stamp that stands by itself.  I did it previously in gold on white, have colored it in the reds and pinks, and am sure I can find many more ways to use it.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

 to you all.....see you 2018!!!!

Crazies Play with the 2017 Sketches

As this is our last challenge of the year, we were challenged to once again use one of the 2017 Crazy4Challenges sketches. I chhose to use the simple June sketch. I tweaked it a bit by putting the sentiment at the bottom of my image panel instead of using a sentiment banner. My image is from Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps. The sentiment is from Penny Black (I think????)

Be sure to stop by the Crazies Blog to see how the rest of the team revisited the sketch challenges of 2017,

Merry Christmas to All......

and Happy New Year,,,,,

see you in 2018 !!!!

Christmas Carol IInspired

Here is today's challenge for the CCEE Stamper's Challenge.....

Welcome to this weeks challenge. At this silly time of the year do you find yourself singing or humming to a song that you have heard. For our challenge this week, take your inspiration from any Christmas Carol.

I did  not record the stamp companies for this card....if you need to know let me know.  My card was based on the song WINTER WONDERLAND.

CCEEers Honor New Beginnings

Here is this week's challenge for the CCEE Stampers Challenge......

As the last of our celebratory month, I would like you

to make a baby card OR a wedding

card......your choice.

(

If you have lots of time, you could make both....lol!!!) 

 

I made a wedding card.  Since you can't really see it well, let me descriibe/help....The die I used is the same one as on the card beelow......but is done white on white.    In place of the sentiment on this card, I die cut the word 'Celebrate' three times and glued each on top of the others to make it stand out even though it again is white one white.  Hopefully that helps you to 'see' the card better through your imagination....lol.....

Be sure to visit the CCEE Blog to see the 'new beginnings' cards of the rest of the team.

C4C Readies for the Holiday

Here is the Crazy4Challenges goal for this week......

Karen Aicken here as hostess for our November 2017 challenges.  I'm so happy that Kelly Booth was able to join us as our Guest Designer this month -- you can find here blog HERE.

For my last challenge, this is what I came up with.  “Christmas or Winter Card” - It’s only 1 month until Christmas, so make a Christmas or Winter themed card today to get a jump on your stash. (If you don't celebrate the major winter holidays, remember you can make a project with a winter theme too.)

I went CAS this week....using a retired SU set and keeping it to black and white.

Be sure to visit the Crazies Blog to see the fab creations of the rest of the team.

Oooops.....Day and a Half Late for CCEE

II had my CCEE Stampers Challenge card done a long time ago, but forgot to post it here on my blog.  Sorry about that!!!  Here is the challenge for the week....

This week we are going to make a card for our holiday stash.  You can make a Christmas card, a New Year’s card, or a winter card…..whichever you think you need the most for your stash.

I went with a CAS Holiday card.  Had trouble with the photo, but in real life it is an even glow to the embossing.

If you haven't already stopped into the CCEE Blog,, please do so to see the creations of the rest of the team who put up with me onthis DT.

Happy Birthday to ME!!! (And a CCEE challenge)

Well.....Happy Birthday to me!!!!!!  In honor of my special day, this week's CCEE Stampers' challenge is to make a feminine birthday card with flowers.  To celebrate the day with me, let's do a random act of kindness.  Call a friend who might need cheer, pay for someone's coffee, give a hug, .....try to make a difference.

I used a stamp set with multiple layers of color (forget which company).  My main panel was cut with a JustRite die.  This is really a very CAS card.

Be sure to stop in at the CCEE Blog to see the fab feminine b'day cards made by my dear friends on this DT.
