More is More

I had to run into Michael’s yesterday to pick up one more package of tea lights for the candle tin project for my class tonight.  While I was there I wanted to get something fun…something I didn’t need, but that would be cute on cards.  C’mon, I mean going to Michael’s is like taking a kid to Toys R Us!  I didn’t have much time so I quickly scanned a Christmas papercrafting display and saw this adorable pad of 8×8 designer paper by me & my big ideas – the ellen holiday collection.  Now I needed more Christmas paper like I need another hole in the head so I picked it up an put it down…until I saw the 30% off sign.  Hehehehehe…yep…had to have it!  So today’s card for Taylor’s sketch is a scrappy card.  The only stamping is the sentiment.

Several of the sheets in this pad have a character (Santa, reindeer or in this case penguin) in the bottom right corner.  And some of the sheets are glittered or flocked like the snowflake pattern on the left side of the card.  I wish you could touch it – it’s yummy!  I added Frosted Lace stickles to the tummy of the penguin.  The sentiment is from a Stampin’ Up! holiday set from last year – Star Studded Season.  The ribbon is American Crafts and was a gift from one of my sweet swappers.  The tiny button-like black brads are also American Crafts.  Cardstock colors are Green Galore and Rose Red.  A super quick card!

To join in the challenge get all the deets on Taylor’s blog.  Let’s go see what the rest of the Cupcake Crew has cooked up:

And this week’s Featured Stamper is Dawn Easton at TreasureOiler Designz.
