Four Seasons Challenge - Winter (1/2026)

 

Hello Friends

Over at the Four Seasons Challenge Blog, we are ready for a change in seasons! 
This months theme is:

Anything Goes - Winter

check out this fabulous inspiration board we have created to help inspire you . . .

 

 Today's card was inspired by the snowy background in the above mood board images!

I went with one of the images I purchased at the Adventures in Stamping convention that comes here to Akron, Oh every April.  The company name is TooMuchFun Rubber Stamps out of Indiana.

 For the center panel I used an old Martha Stewart Icicle punch and the snowflake sentiment panel is a die set by Sue Wilson 'Festive Collection' - Snowflake Corner, Border & Tag.  (CED3019).  I don't see online where this set is anywhere still available.  I also used one of the stamps from a very old 'Verve' stamp set and, I think they are out of business also.

 Please be sure to check out our other fun challenge blogs. 
All the links can be found on the side bar. 

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

As always . . .

 

Word Power (1/2026) Challenge

 Hello Friends . . .

It's time for a new challenge over on our WORD POWER challenge blog! 
Have you check it out yet?  If not, please come join us ... inspiration is welcomed!!  

Here's what I've created for you today . . .

 I've had some fun with border dies for this card.  
Late last summer I ordered a few new ones from scrapbook.com and made up a variety of 'base cards' just waiting to be turned into quick & easy mailing cards.  The border used is by Paper Rose and is called 'Wedding Blooms Collection'.  The sentiment is from my 'Doni Collection' (my friend who passed away and left her stamps to me) ... it's an oldie from My Favorite Things.

 

 You have until the LAST Thursday of the month to enter.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day ahead!

As always . . .
