Krafty Chicks Challenge #841: CHRISTMAS

 Happy Krafty Chicks Thursday to you!

Time for another great challenge from the Krafty Chicks Challenge Blog. Welcome to week 2 of our challenges and that's to use a CHRISTMAS or any holiday/winter theme on your project. I chose to put the spotlight on Christmas this week!

 #841 CHRISTMAS

I went looking through my retired Paper Pumpkin kits and found that the Nests Of Christmas was perfect for last week's Freshly Made Sketches challenge #756.

 For the inside of the card, I simply added a strip of pattern paper. Keeping it simple! And because the envelope was already pretty, the card set was done. 

 

Head on over to the Krafty Chicks Challenge Blog for more details about the challenge and for more inspiration for CHRISTMAS week from the Design Team. There's even a place to upload your project at the end. I hope you play along with us and show us what's happening in your craft space.

Krafty Chicks Challenge #840: BIRTHDAY

Happy Krafty Chicks Thursday to you! 

New month, new challenge starting today. Week one brings us a BIRTHDAY theme on the Krafty Chicks Challenge Blog. Create any paper craft with a birthday theme, male, female, kids, card, scrapbook or even home decor. We hope to see you in the gallery.

#840 BIRTHDAY

When I first saw the Shadow Block technique (or maybe it's more a layout than technique), I wanted to try it. What better DSP to showcase than August 2026's Product of The Month: Glow of Harvest. You may not see it very well but the DSP is shimmery, very elegant and very fall.

 

Products used:

• Stamp Set: Fabulous Sayings
• Card Stock: Crumb Cake, Pecan Pie, Cajun Craze
• DSP: Glow of Harvest
• Ink Pads: VersaMark
• Accessories: White Embossing Powder, Streaked Dots, Stampin' Dimensionals

No card is complete without finishing the inside of the card and the envelope. Keep it simple with a little DSP.
