Cuddly Buddly October Release

Toby Tumble is having fun on his sled. Whoops we lost someone.

Here Toby has slowed down a bit, careful not too loose any of those pretty wrapped gifts.

Now tell me, is Toby not just the cutest Holiday greeting? 

I colored both cards with a combination of Copics and Prisma pencils for shading. Both images were framed with Marianne dies. On the first card I used a Sizzix embossing floder. 

On the second card I downloaded the pretty background paper from Cuddly Buddly and topped it off with the last bit of this red gingham ribbon from my stash. 

Owner and Designer, Kim McFarlane is such a pleasure to design for. Check out her store for a one stop crafting delight.  Here is the link to the October Release stamps that I've used. 

Just a Little more Summer Please.

I just adore anything Poppy Power and this digi set explains why.  You don't even have to be an experienced card maker to make something delightful. The stamp has done most of the work for my card.

 

I have used Poppy Power's digi stamp set Countryside Bouquet and colored it with Prisma pencils and Gamsol. The Dies are Spellbinder's Gold Labels Four and Decorative Labels Eight. The pearls were kind of an after thought, just to fill in the white area a little.

 

This will be going straight over to Poppy Powers Challenge Blog.

 

Cataract Surgery tomorrow.  Wish me well!
