Hi there!! This is my second post today. To see my Cardabilites Birthday Sketch post, CLICK HERE.

The challenge this week is being sponsored by Scor-Pal and the challenge was to using scoring on your card. This was a no brainer for me. I have been looking for an excuse to make on of those adorable easel cards. I got the tutorial for SCS. You can view it HERE.

Cardabilities Sketch Reveal #17

Good morning Friends......OK, are you all ready for Christmas? 10 days away? Yikes that is crazy. Back in September, when I started to leisurely make Christmas cards, I was so jovially thinking "I have all the time in the world"! WRONG! Here it is, the Christmas cards are done, but anything else? No. Not done. I haven't mailed the cards, I haven't bought very many gifts, I haven't planned my Christmas dinner, I haven't washed the sheets in the guests beds....You know what I am talking about....I don't think I am alone here.

What I did do though, was make a card for Cardabilities sketch challenge 17. Here is the wonderful sketch......

Here is what I did with it.....

I can't believe that I am saying this out loud, but quite possibly my favorite Holiday stamps are Just Rite Stamps or quite possible Verve Stamps. It's a toss up this year. This cards cute little snowman is from Just Rite Stamps and the perfect Merry Christmas sentiment is from Verve.

Here are the rest of goodies in this card:

Card Stock: Close To My Heart

Patterned Paper: Eskimo Kisses (Basic Grey)

Ink: Bravo Burgundy (Stampin' Up); Memento Tuxedo Black (Tsukineko)

Dies: Classic Circle (Spellbinders); other die (Marianne Designs)

Border Sticker: Martha Stewart

Every week Cardabilities has a great sponsor with an awesome prize. Won't you play along for you chance to win!!!

Thanks for stopping by today! I hope to see you tomorrow for a fun color challenge by Dreamweaver Stencils!!

Have a blessed day!!!

Just Rite Stampers Color Inspiration

Happy Autumn day everyone!!! I don't know about where you all are from, but here in Western Montana, things have TURNED to Fall. I'm not complaining though. Just looking out the windows of my humble abode brings me so much color inspiration. It makes me want to rush out and dig through all the cool colors of leaves, bring them in and put Glossy Accents all over them. I haven't done that yet, but I have been thinking about it.

Today I am sharing this weeks challenge from JustRite Stampers. If you read the paragraph above, you can tell that this challenge was easy for me. All we had to do this week is use the colors of Fall. Cool BEANS!! I got this.....

The frame on this cards was CASED from Yvonne. As you look at Yvonne's blog, you will quickly see that my talent fits into Yvonne's toenail. I was flabbergasted while watching her tutorial that I would actually have one of the cool supplies she used in her card, and to my surprise, I had never even used those dies, so I was doubly tickled.

Here are the supplies that I used:

Card Stock: Pumpkin Pie, Whisper White, Cherry Cobbler (FAV), More Mustard (Stampin' Up); Copper Shimmer (Island Paperie)

Stamps: Nature Nested Sentiments & Frames, Victorian Nested Frames (JustRite Stamps)
