Camp is over....and I'm BACK!!!

   Today was our very last day in Holiday Card Boot Camp and I had a great time.  If you are looking for some wonderful inspiration for your Holiday Cards, this is one class you will not want to miss.  For more details, please visit the Online Card Class site HERE!!  I was thrilled to learn that the next workshop will start on January 9th and with feature Julie Ebersole, who will team with with Jennifer and Kristina for their next workshop - Clean & Simple Card Making!!   WOOHOO!   As a nice little perk for attending Boot Camp, all the students were allowed to enroll today.  Enrollment for everyone else will start on November 23, so please stay tuned for more details.    I enrolled today and think it will be the perfect way to pass those dreadful cold and dreary January days!!

   After having so many wonderful new ideas, I'm very excited to continue working on my Christmas Cards and made this first one today for several challenges, including a brand new Greeting Card Challenge at The Outlawz.  I have to admit, I have kind of missed having the extra time to take part in many of my favorite challenges, but I'm happy to BE BACK and will be playing in many this week.  

   This fun little card features a new digi from Bugaboo and was colored with my Copics and Glitter,  It's been awhile since I have colored and I really did miss it.  Coloring is soooo relaxing and truly is a  joy for me!!  Love it!!

   My card is called "Christmas Hugs" and would be perfect for anyone!  It was inspired by a variety of challenges, all outlined below.

     This card is being submitted to each of these challenges and everyone is welcome:

• The Outlawz - Greeting Card Challenge - Must include Gifts/Sentiment
• Here Come the Boys - Cards for Boys/Men - # 15 - Red White and Green

     My next card was also colored primarily with my Copics and is another sweet little digi image named Mistletoe Jasper.    He is from DigiStamp Boutique and you can find buy him HERE!

   The cute little sentiment is another brand new stamp I picked up on Saturday at the big sale at my LSS.  It's by Inky Antics and I just thought the Sentiment was perfect.   I know my friend Kerry would LOVE it!!
