Here is my project for this challenge:




Aren't these just the cutest images?  Heather so generously donated these cutie pies for us to use for the Snow Challenge and I decided to make some small note cards with them.  I love the themes of them and wish I could have got them all shown on one picture.  They are all colored with copics and Close to My Heart markers, the paper is from the Christmas pack from DCWV and the buttons and twine are from Close to My Heart.  I added Stickles everywhere and used my Spica Glitter pen to add some shine as well.


I so love this one, Mr. Fresh Brewed!  I do love me some coffee and this image just makes me happy!


This sweetie made me think of the Gingerbread House I did this year for the store.



And I call this on my Postal Santa!  Everyone needs to get those cards and packages out in the mail pretty soon!  Way too cute, aren't they?  

I would love to see what you come up with for a snow project!  Take a stop over at the Pause,  Dream, Enjoy Blog and see what my inspiring designing buddies have come up with for you and go over and see Heather at Fresh Brewed Designs and take a look at her fabulous designs!  I wouldn't steer your wrong!

Come play with us!

Pause Dream Enjoy Challenge with Lemon Pepper

Today is the start of a brand new challenge at
Pause Dream Enjoy Challenges!

Mark's Finest Papers & Stamps
Prize: What a Fox Stamp Set


Here's my project for this challenge:





Saying "Thank you", isn't something I think we do enough.  I love this sweet image called Lemon Pepper from the Cottage Cuties by Elisabeth Bell for Whimsy Stamps.  You know how I love some Elisabeth Bell images!  Isn't she the cutest thing?  I won her and just had to create something special with her.  I love the little bird she's blowing kisses to and since being here with mom, I've become very thankful for the sweet chirp of the birds that gather around all the bird feeders in the yard.  They faithfully come every day and we never let them down and always have something for them to eat.  

This beauty is colored with copics and my Close to My Heart alcohol markers (which I love by the way!) and is cutout with my Floral Ovals by Spellbinders.  I inked the edges with Broken Glass Distress Ink and the gems are from Studio 112.  I added some Stickles to her sweet little outfit and some Glossy Accents to the balloon.  The baker's twine and the sentiment on the inside are from Close to My Heart and the ribbon is from my stash.  The gorgeous papers are from the Autumn Melody packs from DCWV.  

Make sure to stop by the Pause Dream Enjoy Challenge Blog and see what my awe inspiring and ever so talented design team buddies have come up to show their thanks.  I promise you won't be disappointed!  Take some time to join us and show someone some thanks.  We'd love to see what you come up with!

Come play with us!

Here is my ORANGE & BROWN project:



This is Scotty Scarecrow and I think he's fabulous!  He's colored with my new Close to My Heart Markers and I love them!  I used a little bit of Stickles on his hair and collar and some Glossy Accents on his eyes.  The papers are from the Autumn and Halloween DCWV stack and the baubles are from my stash.  I used Wild Honey Distressed Inks around him and on the inside and cut him out with Nestabilities.


Here is a peek of the inside and here's the complete inside.  



Make sure to stop by the Pause Dream Enjoy Blog and see what my other crafting buddies have come up with.  There's lots of inspiration there, that's for sure!  I'd love to see your take on the Orange and Brown Challenge.
