Holiday Cards

Hi! Sorry I've been away for so long, but I really haven't had much time to stamp. Today I finally used some of my new MFT stamps that I've had for awhile now.  Both cards use stamps from the Stephanie Fizer line.

My first card uses "A Scarf for Three".  I colored the image in with my aquapainter and SU! reinkers.  The frame around the image is paper pieced.  The dp is a new Christmas stack from My Mind's Eye that I found at Michael's this week.  The snowflakes are a Martha Stewart punch, which I coated with Versamark and then added Iridescent Ice and heat embossed them.  This card follows the Splitcoast SC202 for the week.

My next card uses "Peppermint Cats."  If you know me, you'll know that I am not a cat person, but I thought these kitties were super cute, so I went with it!  The main image is colored with my Aquapainter and reinkers.  The paper is, again from My Mind's Eye, and the punched snowflakes are from a Martha Stewart punch. To get the glittered circle in the center of the snowflake, I put a mini glue dot there, and sprinkled some glitter over it.  I also used some Heidi Swapp ghost stars, which I adhered with rhinestone brads.  This card uses the sketch from MFTSC56.

I have another card currently in progress on my desk right now, but I'm having some coloring issues, so who knows when it will be finished!
