Joy Clair - Away in a Manger

Hi Everyone,

I am on the Joy Clair blog today with a card I made with one of the new release sets called "Away in a Manger":


This is the set:


I partially die cut the stitched circle. I stamped the image on patterned paper and then stamped it again on white card stock and colored it in and fuzzy cut it. I glued the colored image onto the patterned paper and glued it behind the die cut circle. Added the sentiment and the star as well as some sequins.


Hope you liked this!

Go and visit the Joy Clair blog to see all the new sets! 
Don't forget to play with us in the Joy Clair October challenge  - the theme is Fall and we have a beautiful inspiration picture to give you some colors to play with! The challenge closes October 30, so there is still plenty of time!

My card also fits in with Kimberley's card (see below) at MUSE Christmas Vision - its a bit more serious, not as playful, but the circle and the colors work - perhaps you can play along with us, too - would be great!

So far, this is the most perfect Christmas card I've seen and the reason for the season. Love the coloring, the way you designed it, placing the manger behind your partial diecutting, and the star offset above it. Yep...perfect.

Easter Egg and Bunny

Hi Everyone, I made a bunch of Easter cards, after all its little more than one month and I need to send them out in time... You see, they are all similar - using both the die cut and the negative, that I cut from a die cut egg. The cute bunnies got their yearly appearance - they are from Impression Obsession. the egg is by Lifestyle Crafts. The sentiment is by Papertrey. And here are bigger photos from this set: Linking up with Creative with Stamps - Easter The Paper Players - die cutting Die Cut Divas - animals Happy Little Stampers - anything goes with dies

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it. And here is a close -up: Challenges: Dynamic Duos CAS Colours and Sketches Addicted to Stamps and More Amusing Challenges Materials: Papertrey Background Basics: Super Stripes, Memory Box Chloe Stem die. --X-- Card for Maddy: You may know already about  Maddy ,  who  was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and went through chemotherapy treatment followed by a stem cell transplant from her (then) fifteen year old sister Melanie.  She now has a relapse and this car
