Cute Card Thursday, Creative Card Crew and 7Kids College Fund challenges

The challenge at Creative Card Crew this week was Let's Give Thanks!..
which could be a Thank You or Thanksgiving...
also at 7 Kids College Fund challenge # 8 is Give Thanks..
and at Cute Card Thursday this week challenge 138 was ANYTHING GOES...
Since I still have so many Thanksgiving cards to get out I decided I would try a scallop easel card.. This was challenging to get the scallops to line up once I put the front onto the easel base... but I think it turned out o.k. for a first try.
the fall leaves is a stamp by Inkadinkado called Autumn Corner..



LOTV, A Spoon Of Sugar and Speedy The Cat's Friends challenges

This week at A Spoon Of Sugar its challenge 129 - Snow/Snowflakes.
and at Mark's Finest Papers the Speedy The Cat's Friends Challenge # 29 is to use Snowflakes On Our Card...
and also THIS WEEK ONLY at Lili Of The Valley challenge blog we can use ANY IMAGE.. but only for this special release week...

I used this cute snowman image from Penny Black. and I used some of my green and silver snowflake paper.


NEW HOLIDAY CLOTHES FOR MY BLOG

Hey there.. Just wanted everyone to know that its still me, Sassy Scrappz... I've just decided to put on some new clothes for my blog... Since I procrastinated so long into the autumn I decided not to update to a Fall theme for only two weeks.. I decided to go ahead and get my new Christmas look going.. Hope you like it...

Catch The Bug Challenge - World Kindness Day

This week at Bugaboo Stamps' Catch The Bug Challenge its all about World Kindness Day. I made this card using the Bugaboo Angels (If Friends Were Flowers) stamp.
This is for my great niece.. She just had oral surgery and I wanted to brighten her day...
To make her look like my niece I decided to modify the stamp by removing her wings and giving her a smile. (I LOVE being able to modify digital stamps..)

Cricut Christmas Swap Layout Idea

here is how I imagined the cuts could go together for the Cricut Christmas Swap...
hope this helps..

Creative Inspirations Shaker Card challenge

This card was created for the Creative Inspirations Shaker Card challenge.. This is my first shaker card and I found it to be the most difficult I've ever done. I overglittered the inside and had so much of it stick to the acetate front... this was fun to make and a good experience but this card will stay here for the holidays and hang on our tree.. More practice is needed before sending these out to anyone... but I'm glad I challenged myself to try it...
