Cozy Christmas Wishes

 

If cozy Christmas vibes came with wings, this little cutie would be first in line! Just look at that sweet angel all dressed up for the season in her adorable pinecone hat. With her soft mauve-tinted feathers nestled among berries, pine, and holly, she brings the perfect mix of woodland charm and holiday cheer.

She is part of the new Cozy Chirps stamp set by Pajama Crafter Stamps, and I colored her to play beautifully against the light mint plaid background. Add in a little paper lace, and this card turns into a sweet, festive hug in paper form.

I colored her with Copic markers in the following colors:

  • E50, E31, E55, E57 - brown on bird
  • R81, RV11, R85 - mauve on bird
  • R37, R46, R39 - berries
  • E31, E34, E35, E37, E59 - pinecone
  • YG93, YG95, YG97, YG99 - greenery

Thanks so much for fluttering by my blog today! I hope this Cozy Chickadee inspires you to make something merry, cozy, and completely your own.

This Stings


 It is the 20th of the month so it is time for an Oh So Inspired Card.

This month's inspiration card is a card by Tina S. or @cardsandcoffeetime on Instagram.  I liked the background layer she had on her card and the large sentiment.


I don't have many large die cuts, so I decided to use a large shaped die with a stamped and colored image.

The products I used on my card are:

  • Paper: Bee Happy by Paper Rose
  • Notebook Borders Die Set by Unity Stamp Co
  • This Sings Stamp Set by Unity Stamp Co.

I really enjoy participating on the team - it definitely makes you look through your stash.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope to see how you were "Oh So Inspired".

Something Sweet Just Fro-Yo Gift Card Holder


Oh my goodness, how sweet is this little card? It would be such a fun surprise to receive—especially with a gift card tucked inside like a tiny happy bonus! I created this one with the Fro Yo Friends Die Set from Trinity Stamps, and it has all the charm of a frosty yogurt treat on a sunny day. That adorable little face is cute enough on its own, but add in the gift card holder and it becomes an extra-special treat!
