Christmas Stampin All Year Long Challenge #36 - 09-28-09

Hi Friends!  Well, it's Christmas Stampin All Year Long Challenge time again!  We're on week #36!  Yay!  This week is Vicki of Summerthyme Studio turn to host the challenge. . .her challenge is to incorporate 2 different stamps or stamp sets to create a scenary on your card.  How fun!

Well, you're probably guessing that I like the Christmas tree from the Stampin Up "Snow Swirled" stamp set because I think I've used it on 5 different cards this year already. . .which is unusual for me.  Well, I do love that stamp set. . .it is one of my favorite SU Christmas stamp set!  I also used the Gillian Roberts stamp set that I bought at Little C's.  I've quickly became a fan of the Gillian Roberts stamps because the images are so stinkin' cute!  Stop by Little C's and check out the cute stamps there!!

I used my Sizzix embossing folder to create the embossed snow flake background.  Sizzix now have embossing folders similar to the CB embossing folders.  I've only seen Christmas ones. . .I hope they make more of them in different designs. I colored the image with my Copic Markers and added a bit of Stickles to parts of the images.

Anyway. . .I hope you'll play along with us at Christmas Stampin All Year Long. . .Christmas is right around the corner.  It's time to start creating your Christmas cards.  Be sure to stop by the challenge blog and check out the fabulous cards the design team created!

Hope you all have a wonderful Monday!!!
