I am SO sorry, but please keep emailing your samples, I will continue soon, I hope!!!! THANKS for your understanding!

Two Noel Cards from Gini and Sheila

Sheila from Doubtfires Musings sent us this fantastic Noel Card. Don't you just love the colors?

Gini shared her Noel Card with us. This is adorable, Gini!

Sandy shares her First Snowfall Card

Sandy Hulsart from Creative Moments sent us another incredible card using Karen's Doodles image First Snowfall.
Sandy said "I printed First Snowfall onto Cryogen white paper with my inkjet printer.
Copics used: Faces - E000, E00, E02, R20
Girl's Hair - E09
Girl's Snowsuit - R83, R85
Sitting Boy's Snowsuit - BG45, BG49
Standing Boy's Snowsuit - G00, G02
Boy's Hair - E15
Snowman and Snow- B0000
Nose - YR14
Scarf - BV02, RV02
Coal - C2

I added Sparkly Fluff from Our Craft Lounge to the fur trim on the coats and hats. I purchased some great paper made by Core'dinations, part of the Whitewash Collection. It has a wonderful whitewashed texture on the front with a color core. I embossed it with my Cuttlebug snowflake folder, then sanded the white washing off to reveal the light blue core of the snowflakes. The snowflake border is from Martha Stewart. The saying is from Inky Antics. Finished size is 5 1/2" square."

Wow!!! Thanks for sharing your card with us, Sandy! The colors are amazing and I LOVE the snow!
Hugs, Karen

Bigsby Freebie cards by Lisa and Mary Lou

Lisa from Wishcraft Cards used our Bigsby Freebie to make a card for a friend of her Hubbie's for his 40th Birthday. She says"He's coloured with promarkers, with a little bit of sakura clear glitter pen here and there. The papers are Doodlebug with coredinations cardstock. Used the Martha Stewart scallop dot punch for the border strip, and added rainbow drops in the scallops - this looks quite nice in 'real life' but in the photo the rainbow drops look a bit strange! Sentiment is a Pink Petticoat download."
Great job, Lisa- this card is adorable!!!

Mary Lou from Mary Lou's Corner sent us this fabulous card of Bigsby. It is so cute, isn't it?

She was able to enter this card into these challenges:

CLP -- Sketch #14
Simon Says -- Party!!

SSCC #19 -- New Year Card

Charisma #50 -- Anything but Christmas
Rosie Dee's -- Free Choice :)
LOTV #43 -- New Year Card

Here is her recipe for this card:
Ink: Copics and Red Spica on sentiment
Paper: SEI dp, SU cardstock and DCWW
Tools: Spellbinders nesties and fleurdelis pendant, EK Success dotted wave and photo corner punches along with SU larger photo corner punch
Embellishments: Gold lace, stickles and diamond glaze for eyes

Thanks for sharing Mary. Adorable card :-)
