Merry Christmas with Stickers

Sunday, September 20, 2009

Here's my card for Sparkle's weekly Christmas card challenge. It's also for PaperPlay Challenges which wants you to use tags. I honestly can't believe that I've been making Christmas cards this entire year. I am SO excited to be able to send out handmade cards this year.

As I was looking through my sticker stash, I saw a page from Doodlebug Designs that still haven't been used on a scrapbook page so I thought that I'd do something new for me and use stickers on a card. I put these cardstock sticker tags on a punched circle and then pop dotted them to give some dimension. I love the way it turned out.

***Supplies***
Stamps: CTMH So Sweet Seasons
Other: Cuttlebug, Doodlebug stickers, CTMH brads. ribbon from my stash, Fiskars border punch

In other news, I'm totally bummed about yesterday's BYU loss to Florida State in college football. The hopes of a national championship have pretty much gone out the window. Devin loves that I love sports but he also says it's hard because since I am a woman, I bring a lot of emotion to it and that I take it too seriously. I think he might be right but I can't help it.

I hope that you're having a great day. I'm off to church in a bit and then it will be time to watch my Denver Broncos, hopefully win. Until next time, take good care.

I love this card! Those stickers are too cute!

I too love sports, but can't watch around the bf for probably the same reasons you mentioned. LOL

Love your card Alanna. I'm not much into sports (unless using a craft punch counts?) so I won't offer any advice on the emotional thing. Hope your spirits lift soon!
