Tags for Dynamic Duos #31

I think I'm pretty much done my Christmas cards for 2012... so I decided to take advantage of this week's Christmassy colour scheme at Dynamic Duos to get some tags made.  Our colours this week are Certainly Celery & Real Red, so I used Close To My Heart's Pear & Holiday Red.  I die cut all the bases in Kraft cardstock, then got busy stamping and die cutting snowflakes to embellish them.

Here are a few close-ups:

We would love to have you join us this week at Dynamic Duos!  You need to use just the two colours (or something similar) in your project - and the addition of neutrals like kraft, black, greys etc. are allowed.  Check out the rest of the design team's projects (links on my sidebar, or visit the DD blog!)  Not everyone went with a holiday theme - so there is plenty of inspiration.

 

Stamp sets are A Very Merry Christmas, & Perfect Fit Holiday, CTMH & Vintage Christmas, Waltzingmouse Stamps; Cardstock is Kraft, Holiday Red & White Daisy; Inks are Pear & Holiday Red; Spellbinders Vintage Ornament dies; Let it Snowflake dies, My Favorite Things; Cricut Artiste & Art Philosophy cartridges, CTMH; Hemp, buttons & sparkles, all CTMH.

Sketchbook Saturday Challenge #36

Yay!  My Waltzingmouse stamps arrived in the mail this week - I've wanted this stamp set since it came out last year, so I whipped it out as soon as I could and made certainly the brightest Christmas card that I've ever created :o)  These are summery papers, but for some reason they were just shouting Christmas to me?  I kept the design fairly simple (due to those in-your-face prints!) and added just a bit of bling.  I've used Chupa's Sketchbook Saturday sketch for inspiration:

Patterned papers are Summery Days, Echo Park; Stamp set is Vintage Ornaments by Waltzingmouse Stamps; Inks are Pear & Cotton Candy, CTMH; Cardstock is White Daisy, Ocean & Pear, CTMH; Bitty Sparkles & Bubblegum Organdy, CTMH.  Spellbinders ornament die.
