Over on the Sunsational Stamps Blog we're doing Christmas in July Challenge.

I used the Oh, Christmas Tree digital stamp which you can get here.  I live in Sunny Florida so our Christmas is more sunny than snowy. We make Sandmen not snowmen. Or in this case Sand-People. I use my children's favorite colors for their hats. I also decorated the tree with sequins. I flip them over to give a more Christmas ornament feel.



Are you feeling festive yet?  Join the Christmas in July Challenge !

Let's Hear it for the Dudes!

You know you started singing this song as soon as you saw the title of this post.  Actually, this post has nothing to do with the song but, it has everything to do with card making.







Over on the Crafty Gals Corner blog we're showing our dude - Men cards. Each of the Design Team was challenged to  created a card with a male theme. We used Dr, Digi's House of Stamps Images.



Here is my card for this challenge. I used Psychedelic Syd
I created a tye dye background with Distress Inks. Stamped  rock on, some happy faces and peace signs. Die Cut the Happy for a Hero Arts die.
No automatic alt text available.


Hop on over to the Crafty Gals Corner Blog to join the Challenge.

I used Besties Fluffy Sunshine Girl - I created a Bendy card. Jen of Koala T Crafts did a tutorial recently you can find it here. I adapted mine a bit, but the concept is the same.

 Close-up of the card.

 Side views of the card so you can see the crane and the little jumping fish.



For my next card I used Besties Twinkle Toes Troll - I created a layered card. I did a technique call Distress Oxide Ink water stamping that Jennifer Mcguire showed on her blog and on her YouTube Channel  Jennifer Mcguire Ink recent for my background.

 Changed the lighting so you can see the background better.

I hope you join the challenge it's a good one!
