Clear Dollar Stamps is hosting a new Weekend Challenge called Clearly Inspired. I created this card for the first challenge. We were to use 5 of anything.. I used 5 squares. Check it out. There is a huge celebration going on for Clear Dollar Stamps 5th birthday. This is a newly released set created by the fabulously talented Wendy Hall. So grab your CDS stamps and come join the challenge to Give Me Five.
This first card is going as a RAK to a family back in my home town that have a daughter named Sydney. She is in her final days and they are celebrating Christmas. Here is their story: Sydney Ives
This second card is for several challenges:
High Hopes challenge this week is to create a card with a card with a snowflake. My designer paper has snowflakes..
These both qualify for the Stampin B's challenge this week.. Hosted by Faith to make a Christmas card. Check out their fun challenge Blog. The white paper I used on the HH card is from Mark's Finest Papers. It is so awesome for copics.
This also qualifies for The Cute Daisey May challenge to create a BLUE Christmas card.
Then there is the LSC on Splitcoast. Silvia challenged us to create a card for a sweet little boy named Noah that is battling cancer. He is in his final days and his family is celebrating Christmas this week. If you too would like to send a card you can read about Noah here: Noah Biorkman
