For the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC732), we’re headed to LTD Commodities & THIS was my inspiration.
For my version, I die cut cocoa mug & go cup out of some coordinating papers then did a little paper piecing on them. The greeting was stamped on some cement colored paper, everything was attached & some holly sprigs added.
Thanks so much for stopping by!

For the Color Challenge (CC765) on Splitcoast, the colors are a dk red, dk green & a lt green. I thought these colors were perfect for these cute elf shoes.
My card is fairly CAS, the only thing slightly tricky I did was to rearrange the feet a bit on the center one. I made a mask first & put them where I wanted, removed the right one & stamped the left. It left some blanks where I wanted them. Then I stamped the left one. The other pairs of shoes were stamped on either side then everything was colored.
The top envelope flap shaped panel was die cut along w/ a red patterned paper border, then I stamped part of the fairly large greeting (there is more on top & underneath, but I masked these off w/ scotch tape).

For the Inspiration Challenge (IC727) we’re headed to Ruby Mountain & I chose THIS as my inspiration.
The round shape of the earrings & white snow falling reminded me of this new Snow Globe die I have & wanted to use. I die cut a couple of trees & the larger one on the left, I snipped it out of the oval frame it comes in. Thinned white acrylic paint was used to paint the snow on them & when dry, I added some ink & embossed them w/ a sparkly white powder. I used part of a snowflake frame image to add the embossed falling snow. For the greeting, I stamped it onto a piece of white shrink plastic w/ Stazon & heated it. A larger metallic blue layer was added behind the snow globe to go w/ the stand of the snow globe. On the deckle frame, I swiped a dark blue ink along the inside & outside edges & heat embossed w/ a blue satin powder & purposely left the little specks of powder here & there.
