"Make it Sparkle" Challenge at Crafty Cardmakers and more

Hello all!  This is my first card as a Design Team member for Crafty Cardmakers and more.  I am very excited to be a part of a design team again.  I look forward to creating with the team and being inspired by all of you!

The challenge this week is to "Make it Sparkle!"  Any form of sparkle is allowed. I hope you decide to play along. I have used Stickles on her tutu, the floor and the centers of the flowers on the embossing folder.  Wink of Stella added a little sparkle to the stars. 

This little cutie is Dainty Dancing by LOTV.

Nativity Angels - I Feel the Love Project

This card is for the I Feel the Love Project.  This month involves making holiday cards for children who won't be able to be home this holiday season.  Please click on the link above to learn more.

Aren't these sweet angels just cute as can be?  I chose to keep it simple and used very soft colors.  This little stamp is called Nativity Angels and is by LOTV.  I think it is just adorable.  As a matter of fact, I loved it so much that I bought two without realizing it!  LOL.

Stamptacular Sunday - Not just an ORDINARY card!

Hi Everyone!  Time for another fun week at Stamptacular Sunday Challenge.  This weeks challenge is Not just an ORDINARY Card.  Create a card that is out of the ordinary and and not traditional!  No FLAT cards allowed.  This week's card should pop-up, stand up, turn into a box, slide, twist, etc. Please don't forget to use a stamp on your card.

This week's awesome Sponsor is BIRDIE BROWN.  The winner can choose 3 digis!

I chose to do a center step card.  I really love the way it focuses on the image.  I was so tempted to make this a white on white card because she is so sweet and tranquil - maybe next time.

This is Christmas Angel Praying by LOTV.
