Power Poppy Power and Spark Challenge

I try to do at least one Christmas card or two a week so that I don't have so many to do when Christmas gets here. I decided that this page map by Becky Fleck was  perfect for my challenge card.

Here is the page map I used:

The holly is a Power Poppy digital and I colored it with copic markers. 

Power Poppy's Power and Sparkle Challenge

This is for the October Power Poppy challenge to a Mini and Mighty card. I love the fall colors of browns and oranges, so I used them on my card. This little note is so perfect to tuck into someone's purse just to let them know you are thinking about them.  You can find the Power Poppy challenges on their blogsite: the Power Poppy Blog

Trying out my new digi

I was inspired by a beautiful card made by a stamper I admire so much over on SCS, Linda Paider. She used this new digital from Power Poppy, and the nice thing about digitals is that you can purchase it and have it the same day. Can't beat that, right?  So looked to see what challenges this card might be suitable for and decided on these two: Cute Card Thursday and Double D Challenge.

I colored this image with my chromatix markers. I embossed the two front pieces with a Sizzix folder. I also embossing the pink mat for the image.

Mod Squad challenge - Ribbons, Ribbons! Who's got the ribbon?

I decided to take on Judy and Vicki's challenge to use Ribbon on a card this week. I was excited to see Power Poppy being one of the sponsors this week. So, I printed out this Power Poppy holly digital I have on my computer. I have grown to love using digitals mainly having the advantage of sizing it to be whatever you need. I colored the image with copic markers and added a stamped senitment. I decided to add the ribbon a  little differently into the design of the card.  I am a huge fan of Marcella Hawley's artwork and have always enjoyed using her images on my cards.

CCEE1608 challenge Florals

Lynn is hostess this week and her challenge:

In 1995 Massachusetts Governor William Weld declared February 28 Floral Design Day to honor educator Carl Rittner, the founder of the Rittner School of Floral Design. Let’s take this week in the dead of winter to do some paper and ink floral designs!

 Should you post your design to another online gallery, please use keyword CCEE1608. We hope you will join us in this challenge and link your creation on the blogsite.

I loved these pretty camellias digital  from Power Poppy. I colored this with copic markers and did some fancy cutting around them. I embossed the white background  and then attached the flowers with dimensionals. I added the ribbon so this could appear to be a loved arranged bouquet of camellias.
