Slimline Birthday Wishes

Time to slip in a birthday greeting among all the Christmas cards.  

This beautiful slimline digital design is from Beccy's Place, and is named 'Nasturtium Set'.

It's an older set but one I love every image in the package.  I used Copic markers  in shades of yellow and blue, the birthday girls favorite colors.

 As I continue to share Christmas cards for 2024, today's card image is from Hero Arts and is called Christmas Rose.

This is one of my favorite layouts, if the image will fit, to use a fancy border along one edge and make this envelope style card.  Just a tag and ribbon and the card is complete.

The Elf Made Me Do It!

While I enjoyed a MONTH of Holiday cards on Beccy's Place, her images weren't the only ones I've been working on for Christmas 2024.  I have many more to share in the next 20 or so days ~ and I hope you'll pop in each day to see what I've made.

Like the blog postings from last month, these are going to be condensed to the image name and manufacture, the die I used, and the Copic references.

 

This is Di's Digi's, Candy Cane Mice and I used Gina Marie Designs Drop Pendant Die.

Kingfisher Flight

This afternoon I'm posting for my last time with the Creative Team for Morgan's ArtWorld.  It has truly been a pleasure to design with her talented team, to use Morgan's beautiful images and to see my work on her website internationally.  

We are opening the December Challenge, and I have selected Morgan's Kingfisher as my image for today. 

https://pamspearls4u.blogspot.com/2024/12/kingfisher-flight.html

 

For this design I sized the image to about 3" x 4" and used Copic markers for coloring.  After trimming close to the edge, I triple mounted with coordinating orange, green and blue cardstock and mounted on the white 5 x 7 card base.  I added the two silk leaves and three yellow flowers in the left corner for depth and decided to leave the sentiment off until I'm ready to use the card.

Be sure to visit Morgan’s ArtWorld 

for more images and to see the other Design Team cards. We’d love for you to join us in the monthly challenge!

Thank you for stopping by today to view my blog. I enjoy sharing my work with you and invite you to 'Follow' my blog and to visit my site - "Not Just Scraps' on Facebook - where you can purchase my cards.

I Thank God For You Every Day

 For the final 'wild card' in a Month of Holiday Cards on Beccy's Place, she asked us to create a card that brings us joy, something we love to do.

I love Copic coloring flowers and this morning I selected Beccy's Peony from August 2021.  I sized it 'off the page' and added the sentiment to the side so everything would be one layer for a quicker card.  

After matting on the olive with gold dots cardstock, I added the coordinating ribbon across the bottom and secured the covered button on the left corner to complete the design.

Making cards like this for friends and loved ones brings me joy and it is what I love to do.  My life is so blessed with many wonderful friends!  My God is so good to me Every Day!

Thank you for stopping by ALL MONTH for this special challenge.  It's been work but so much fun! Thank you Beccy Muir - you are the best!

Waiting on Santa Paws

 For my card for Alpha 'Z' in a Month of Holiday Cards on Beccy's Place, I've selected to make a Z-Fold card using the Basset from Dog Tales. 

What better way to end such a great month Alphabet Cards holiday cards with Beccy's images than with one by the fireplace waiting on Santa.  I met my personal goal of using her images for all the alphabet initial entrees, although I did use other manufacture images for second images and/or for the wild card challenges.

Also this is the last Alpha card - but there's still one more Wild Card left for the 30th day.  We're anxiously waiting to see what our last challenge will be for the games of 2024! 

Thank you for stopping by to see what I've made for the month long special challenge. And my overwhelming thanks to Beccy for a great month of fun!

X-Tra Sparkle

For my card for Alpha 'X' in a Month of Holiday Cards on Beccy's Place, I've selected this X-tra large Pup from her Holiday Hounds package. As you can tell from the dog's 'attitude' she believes she is X-tra special, sporting her X-tra large magenta girlie bow and enjoying all the x-tra attention of the season!  I'm sure she will be getting lots of XOXOs.

Again credit is given to Beccy Muir in her ability to capture the facial expressions (i.e. attitudes!) in her drawings.  You are one gifted and accomplished artist.

Goodwill Toward Men

 For my card for Alpha 'W' in a Month of Holiday Cards on Beccy's Place, I've selected the Winter Window from her Season Window package.

This is also the image I selected to send to one of the servicemen from our church family.  Perfect for letting them know we are praying for their safety and return to their families.

Never Stop Believing

For my card for Alpha 'V' in a Month of Holiday Cards on Beccy's Place, I've selected the Volkswagen Beetle from her Cruzin package.  I added the big bow from the "Birthday Gift" freebie and the wreath on the front is from her Berry Wreath.

While this one took a while to get things sized to the right proportions, I love how it turned out.  Plus I've always loved Volkswagens ~ I may just have to keep this one!

Very Vivacious!

I thought that I'd use this card for Non Traditional Christmas colors at some point this month in Beccy's Place a Month of Holiday Cards.  But with three of the four challenges already on the table, I'm going to play her 'Boxed Snowman' tonight as a Very Vivacious Snowman!

I do loved coloring with the Copic RV shades and mixed with the aquas of the BG family, always a great combo!

Wild Card Three Challenge

 For the third wild card, Beccy gave us 'Black/White and one color' in a Month of Holiday Cards on Beccy's Place. For this challenge I've selected Pine Forest.

This is one of Beccy's images shown under Freebies - then scroll down to find Nature / Scenery / Furniture. 

As you know I'm a Copic colorist and rarely do other mediums.  I know - I should branch out... but.  So this challenge is a bit difficult because one color with Copics is a range of colors.  I selected Shades of Gold as my one color to go with my Blacks to White shades in this card. 

I added the sunset background with the shades of gold and snowy ground cover to the this grayscale image.  After framing with the gold die and mounting on the card base, I added the falling snow on the trees using a white gel pen.  I hope my interpretation of this challenge is appealing and soothing.

Thank you for stopping by to see what I've made for the month long special challenge.
