Merry and Bright Christmas Card by Tasha!

 Happy Friday Ai Fans!

Tasha here, thrilled to share my latest creation in the spirit of the season – a delightful holiday card inspired by the "Making Spirits Bright Challenge." Now that the Holiday Season is in full swing, my crafting hands are busy bringing Christmas cheer to life, and I couldn't be more excited about the charming 5802 - Joyful Snowman Set!

Let's talk about the star of the show – the adorable snowman adorned with holiday lights. Honestly, all the snowman stamps are darling, but this one stole my heart. As I gazed upon it, I thought – what if a mischievous kitty joined the snowy fun? And voila! The 5098 - Cozy Cat Cubbies Set provided the perfect feline companion, nestled cozily next to the snowman, adding an extra layer of cuteness to the card.


Now, onto the greeting! The 5040 - Sleigh Bells Set boasts a whimsical font that worked beautifully with this winter wonderland scene. Opting for a light blue ink not only complements the overall color scheme but also enhances the frosty vibe of the card.



To bring it all together, I incorporated silver glitter paper for a touch of holiday sparkle, deep teal cardstock for contrast, and a delightful piece of check pattern paper from the Ai 5835 - Mini Journal Paper Pack. I must confess – I have a soft spot for snowflakes!

Thank you for taking a peek at today's holiday card! I invite you to join in the "Making Spirits Bright Challenge" and share your own creative expressions!

Mousey Christmas Greetings Card by Tasha!

 Happy Friday Ai Fans!

Tasha here sharing a new holiday card inspired by the #361 Christmas Came Early Challenge. For my project I'm featuring the cute 5564 - Mousey Christmas Set and the new 5782 - Snowflake Frame Die

To create this card, I started by stamping the happy little mouse and coloring him with Copic Markers. I selected traditional Red & Green colors and added glitter to the fur areas of the coat and hat; the glitter is so pretty! I also used the included coordinating die set to cut the mouse out.


After coloring the mouse, I used the new 5782 - Snowflake Frame Die and cut a frame from gray card stock. To coordinate with the gray, I added a piece of winter-themed pattern paper. I love the way this snowy scene looks!


The greeting "Seasons Greetings" is from the 5566 - Christmas Sentiments Set and fits perfectly on the edge of the frame. I thought embossing on black would allow the sentiment to stand out against the gray and white colors; the white just pops! Embossing is just so cool!

Lastly, I added silver glitter paper, Christmas themed pattern paper, and three sheets of card stock to complete the card. This card was so much fun to make and I think this little mouse is just the cutest stamp to use on holiday projects!



Thank you for checking out my project and I hope you are having a wonderful day!
