Inspirational Card Sketch #41

I used ICS Sketch #41 for the feather inspiration card at 365 Cards.

Here it is:

So Little Bloggin, but Oh so much Scrappin'!

November has really prompted me to get productive creatively. There are Christmas cards to make, altered gift items to create, advent calendars, and more! I have had a good dose of mojo going and am just thrilled at all I have gotten done! Now to get it all blogged about.... that's another story!

I had a blast with this week's challenges at 365 Cards. I was able to complete all of the challenges (insert shocked face here!!)!! Yay!!!!

Here are my creations for 365 Days - #s 246-252

#246 Sunday Sketch



For this card, I used MM's Fa-La-La line of papers. The chipboard letters are Maya Road and I covered them with Martha Stewart class beads...still need to find a better way to apply these lil' buggers! The felt shapes are MM, The pin from Maya Road, Flower is Prima.

#247 Ad Inspiration



I am in Christmas card making mode and when I saw the ad it immediately converted to a Christmas wreath in my head. I again used MM's Fa-La-La line and the buttons are from All Dressed Up Christmas pack. The border punch I used is from Martha Stewart.

#248 Feather Inspiration



I wasn't really to sure what I would come up with for this one!! Really glad I tried it out tho'! I have no good idea where I picked this fiber cording, but it worked, so I used it! LOL! The papers and mitten are from Cosmo Cricket and the pearls are from Ms. The snowflake button is from All Dressed Up.

#249 80's Inspired



I made this card for my DH. I hope he likes it! I had a blast making this one! the papers are Prima. I covered the chipboard with ink and then went over them with Glossy Accents. The letters are from AdornIt - Carolee's Creations and Thickers.

#250 Mondrian



For this card I used Cosmo Cricket papers and a Fancy Pants chipboard snowflake. I covered the snowflake with Martha Stewart tinsel glitter.... really love that look for Christmas.


#251 Favorite 2 Colors




This is another card I made with DH in my mind. I love pink and green together and decided to use the November card sketch from My Sketch World. The chipboard is from fancy Pants and Basic Grey, covered with ink and then Glossy accents. The letters are Thickers/AdornIt - Carolee's Creations and flowers are from Prima.

#252 White Space (or in my case pink)



This had me thinking for a bit on how exactly to do it... I really don't leave much white space very often, so this was a challenge. The papers I used are from MM and My Mind's Eye. The tree and snowflakes are from All Dressed Up.

There were soo many fantastic tutorials created for the My Sketch World WCMD crop!! Lucy created an origami tutorial on Christmas trees!! I was soo amazed that I was able to complete it since I have always struggled with being able to fold things just the right way!

Happy November to You!!!

I cannot believe it's already November!!! The months just seem to fly by..... never understood what my parents meant until I had children of my own! I am looking forward to this season of Thanksgiving and all the fun leading into the Christmas season. I have lots of projects I would love to get done..... hopefully life will cooperate and settle down around here so I can do just that.

Since it's the 1st that means a DT reveal for me at My Sketch World. We just finished off the World Card Making day crop and are heading into a month long use your stash crop!!! Hope to see you stop on by...... if you're anything like me you will have plenty of things to use up!

The sketch for this month by Lucy is wonderful, as always!!!, and the theme is what we are thankful for.
