Welcome to October & to the Splitcoaststampers Fan Club October Christmas Challenge! You’ll need to be Fan Club member but that’s easy…just click the blue link to find out how. Bet you’re wondering what the challenge theme is..I’d love to tell you but you’ll have to go see for yourself.

My card is all on one layer, so there was a little masking going on. I started by stamping & coloring Leonard, then I masked him & stamped the pine bough to resemble a little Charlie Brown Christmas tree & added a few ornaments. I die cut the window then used a reverse mask of it to stamp the North Pole & reindeer. The snow bg was stamped w/ the tumbled glass. I thought it needed something so I stamped part of the light string on the top of the window then added stickles to the lightbulbs & snowflakes. I did a little cutting around the top of Leonard in order to insert the corner of the window frame underneath him.

Here are the Copics I used.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

It’s my pleasure to host the Splitcoast Featured Stamper Challenge (FS660) this week! A big congrats to Rebekah as the newest Featured Stamper! I chose THIS card to case. I  kept the Christmas theme & layout, but I used different stamps, different dies & left off an embossed layer.

Except for the greeting, my card is all die cuts. I used white glitter paper for the roof of the cabin, the snow hills & little round snowflakes. After I cut the snow hills, I stuck them together & cut them in the shape of the white oval layer. The trees were cut w/ a couple of greens & I added stickles to them. For the largest layer & scallop oval layer, I used some old Cricut Christmas paper. The poinsettia was die cut out of watercolor paper & I used Brushes & a paintbrush to add the color to the petals & leaves.

Thanks so much for stopping by.

For the Inspiration Challenge (IC721), we have Flags on a Stick. They have some really fun, really nice flags & for my card, I was inspired by THIS Halloween flag. I thought the decorated birdhouses were really cute.

For my Halloween card, I die cut the houses & ghosts out of white, the tree, crows & fence out of black & the tiny pumpkin out of orange. To me it seemed simpler to cut the houses in white & color them instead of cutting a bunch out of different colored paper. The die I used for the birdhouses is actually one multilevel roofline spooky house. I cut it out twice then cut apart the house to make my 3 birdhouses. On the yellow one, I colored the stars thru a stencil.  I used a 3/8″ circle punch for the holes, colored them black & put them back in. Then I just put all the pieces together on a white front where I had already stamped the greeting frame.

Here are the Copics (& 1 orange Tombow) I used. This may be the first time I’ve used that black Copic!
