Clover wishes you a Merry Christmas

Join us every Wednesday for a Weekly Challenge at La-La Land Crafts Blog. This week's challenge is PINK. Please click scroll down or click here to participate and to see the cards from our super talented design team!!

My card today is not for this week's challenge, it is not pink ;-) . Red and Blue is my favorite color combo for Christmas cards.

This card measures 6" x 6".




Candy Cane Clover is from our Christmas 09 Collection, you can buy this stamp here. Fireplace stamp is from Magnolia, you can buy yours at Cranberry Hill Mercantile online store, here is the link. Sentiment is from JustRite Christmas stamp set.

I made this card into somewhat like a shadowbox card. Blue background was embossed with Snowflakes Cuttlebug embossing folder, cut out the circle in the middle with Nestabilites and made the scalloped frame to go around the opening. The blue layer is raised on the card with the fireplace showing in the opening. Fireplace was colored with Copic Markers and I also airbrushed around the fireplace.

Clover was stamped twice and colored with Copic Markers. Her wings and the Candy Cane are layered for a 3D effect, you might be able to see it when you enlarge the last photo (just click on it).

Stickles on the garland, the fire and the Candy Cane.

Hugs!!

This is Clover, one of our stamps from the Animals Collection. Check out the look on her face, cracks me up!!! Here is the description of this stamp (you can also see it on our website):

"Clover is a cute little chicken and she scurries right along. With a cackle and cluck she turned to me to say “Today is the day, I cannot slow my pace. Any minute now and the sun will show its face.” " Cute, huh?

Clover stamp has also chicken foot prints on it. You just need to cut them apart and use separate, just like I used the chicken foot prints inside of the card. Isn't that just AWESOME to get two stamps in one? You can purchase Clover in our store here.

This card measures 6" x 6". The super adorable cloud paper is by Best Creations, it is double sided!! I used Crystal Stickles to outline the clouds. The polka dots paper is by Bo Bunny. I used Martha Stewart border punch to create the "grass" look. Clover was stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink onto the Coconut Swirl paper by Bazzil and colored with Copics. Here is the list of colors: E00, E11, E33, YR21, YR24, R29, YG03 and YG63. Circles were cut and embossed with Nestabilites. We do not have our own sentiment stamps just yet, the sentiment on the cards is form A Muse. Label for the sentiment is from Spellbinders. Ribbon and the brad finish off this card.

Hugs!!
