A cute ice skater is featured on this colorful Christmas card.
I used the digital stamp "Skater" from Mo's Digital Pencil to make this card. I colored the image with Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers. I used Crystal Stickles glitter glue to add some sparkle to the white fur.
I used the Zig markers to watercolor the image and blue background areas.
The base is a dark green blank card that measures 5" by 6 1/2".
The background cardstock is from a Cricut Christmas paper pack.
I embellished the card with a light green ribbon and bow.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!
This is my first handmade Christmas card in 2014. I will enter this card in Mo's Digital Challenge #242 - Snow.
I started with a blank kraft cardstock card that measures 4" by 5.5".
The background is a piece of pretty patterned paper from my Paper Studio stash.
I used the Spellbinders "Square Swatches" die to cut and emboss a piece of red cardstock for the background.
I chose the new Fairy Snowman digital stamp from Mo's Digital Pencil. I colored the image with Copic Sketch markers and added highlights with Stickles glitter glue.
I used the Spellbinders "Lacey Circles" to cut and emboss around the snowman image.
I used Spellbinders "Framed Tags One" to cut and emboss the tag from kraft cardstock. I stamped the word "Rejoice" on the tag and heat embossed the word with red embossing powder.
I embellished the card with a green Christmas tree brad (Recollections) and wrapped it with a piece of red raffia ribbon.

I got out my colored pencils and colored this cute little fairy for Mo's "Things With Wings - Challenge #234" this week.
I used a Mo's digital image from the
3 Baby Fairies set. I printed the image on kraft cardstock and colored it with Prismacolor pencils. I highlighted the wings with silver Stickles glitter glue. I then cut and embossed it with a Spellbinders die.
The background paper is from a Ki Vintage Charm Paper Pad (Walmart).
I embellished the card with a pre-made vintage tag (Hobby Lobby Valentine Clearance), a piece of feathery fiber and a sentiment from Splash of Color (Hobby Lobby).

I made this card for Mo's Challenge #228 - Clean and Simple. A "clean and simple" card has a limited number of embellishments. This style works very well if you want to send the card through the US Postal Service.
The base is a 5" by 7" blank kraft card (Paper Studio). I get these blank cards in a Value Pack at Hobby Lobby when they are 50% off.
I was very lucky to find a big bag of Creative Memories mini scrapbooking kits with patterned paper and coordinated stickers at a yard sale. I used the "Cabana" set for the background of this card.
I used a Martha Stewart punch to make the ladybugs on each corner of the blue paper.
I chose the Ladybug Fairy digital stamp from the 3 Baby Fairies set at Mo's Digital Pencil. I colored the fairy with Copic Sketch markers and used Stickles glitter glue to highlight the wings.
I embellished the card with a "Love" jelly sticker from Me & My Big Ideas (I got a pack of 24 of these stickers for $0.49 at Goodwill.)
