Fluffy Fabulous - Creative Card Chicks

 Hello my friends from a very cold H  Town. I am really ready for this cold weather to be over. I really, really do not like the cold. I have been keeping busy though with making mini albums and creating some cards.  Today I have a card to share for  the February Creative Card Chicks challenge. This month our hostess was Roxie (morgainegeiser on SCS). She sent us a cute little Unity stamp and sentiment to use as well as some designer paper. We were to use our  own supplies  to create our card.


 I thought the image was so cute. The image and sentiment are from "Flock" from Unity Stamps as well as the designer paper (Barnyard Bouquet). I thought the paper went really well with the image. I used Stampin Up Crushed Curry for my mat and base card. I cut two strips of the gingham and one strip of the roosters. I used a circle punch for my image and then used my Copic markers to color it in. I just got some little brushed gold embellishments from Stampin Up so I stuck a little dragonfly on the image just for fun. Thanks Roxie for the cute stamp.

Suzy's Flakey Friends - Creative Card Chicks

 Hello, my friends. It's been a long time since I have posted. Holidays, storms, snow - all kinds of crazy things here. I'm happy to say that our temps have warmed up and I can come out of hiding in my cave. I'm very late with this post, but glad to have been able to finally get it done. This is our first Creative Card Chicks challenge for 2025 and our hostess was our fabulous leader - Suzy. She sent us the images to use and we were to use our own stash to supply the rest of what was needed for our card. 

Suzy sent us the images and sentiments - Stampin Up, Flaky Friends stamped on Recollections 110# white using Memento Tuxedo Black.

She also sent us the snowflake dies which were punched using Martha Stewart punches using Recollections Shimmer Silver paper.

I used Stampin Up Rose Red for my mats and My Mind's Eye Mistletoe Magic designer paper. The snowmen were dressed up using my Copic markers - B0000, B12, C6, C10; G24; R17; Y15, Y19; and YR07.

I hope that I can be more timely in getting my cards posted this year. I'm very good at procrastinating.
