There's still time to join in at CAS Christmas
and get a head start on those Christmas cards.
Trina is hosting this month and she chose...
I've used this adorable stamp from Penny Black, colored
with Copic markers and fussy cut the image out.
The brick background is dry embossed and the mantel
is a snippet of textured cardstock.
I'm going to take my snippet over to
Pixie's Snippet Playground
I hope you're feeling better, Di.
I have a twofer too.
Just a bit different but using the same techniques.
Our Guest Designer, Helen, has joined our Design Team
to astound you with some inspiration pieces.
I hope you'll check them out and join in at
Enjoy!

You do have some of the cutest stamps. This image just makes me smile. Your coloring is outstanding and love the embossed brick you used behind it. Both cards are wonderfully designed.
ReplyDeleteBoth of your cards are super cute, love the image and the texture form the dry embossing x
ReplyDeleteVery sweet! I have that little mouse stamp and haven’t used it yet, I don’t think.
ReplyDeleteSuper CUTE Christmas cards, Bonnie! Your little mouse is darling and I love how you included the brick wall for your background! I think I 'need' this stamp :) Barb xx
ReplyDeleteOh Bonnie that mouse in the stocking is so cute - and you have really made a pair of beautiful cards with it!! Love them both

This stamp is so precious! And, of course, the magic Bonnie touches with the coloring and creating the look of a mantle with the brick EF and snippet top it off. You win The Cutest Stocking Card Award in my book...smiles.
ReplyDeleteTwo darling cards with that sweet image. Love the texture of the brick embossing folder.
ReplyDeleteI really love these Bonnie..so cute but so clean and crisp looking. I like the embossing behind your images.
ReplyDeleteSo cute! Love the texture on the background!

Bonnie, what a fun stamp (love it and may have to buy that cutie). Great layouts for the circle and rectangular layouts :)
ReplyDeleteTwo fabulous Christmas cards! Love both layouts but slightly prefer the green one. The winning card for CAS Christmas this month, in my opinion!
ReplyDeleteLove both of these cards - especially the one that is off center. I have to admit, I am a sucker for mice. I could kiss this baby's nose and tickle his tummy!!
ReplyDeleteAdorable - a real image to make the heart smile.

Is there anything you CAN'T color with!!!! In inquiring minds want to know!
ReplyDeleteBoth cards are so cute, Bonny! Great Copic coloring and wonderful texture of the brick wall embossing. Love both layouts!

Awesome designs for your two stocking cards, Bonnie. LOVE the sweet image with the mouse snuggled in the top of the stocking. Great texture from the brick embossing. xx
ReplyDeleteYour CAS cards are just outstanding Bonnie. So cute and so much glorious white space. Wonderful.

Eeekkk! Oh, Bonnie, this is so stinkin’ CUUUUUUTE! Beautifully coloured and designed. Love, love, love them! Wished I asked you to bring that stamp to the retreat. xx
ReplyDeleteTwo soooo cute stocking cards Bonnie, love the textured background too
ReplyDeleteBoth cards are adorable, Bonnie.
ReplyDeleteThese cards are darling. I love the card design--a great one for featuring small images. Thank you for sharing this.
ReplyDeleteBonnie, your mouse sleeping in the stocking is just too adorable. Both cards are fantastic. It was so nice meeting and stamping with you this past weekend. Have a great weekend.
