November Guest #2--Angela Wood

Good morning to you all!!! Today I get the wonderful privilege of introducing one of my personal favourite stampers in blogland. Not only does she have mad colouring skills but her cards and projects are magazine quality in my humble opinion. Her name is Angela Wood and you can find her at Angelwood's Crafting Corner!! Grab a cup o' something before you decide to surf her blog though--you'll probably be there awhile!! ☺

Here's Angela's card following our challenge theme of a Christmas Card Using Non-Traditional Colours.

Angela used Valerie's Gift, a rubber stamp Crissy created for Whimsy Stamps.

Thanks Angela for sharing this stunning card with us here at Sundays With Crissy!! All I can say is WOW!!

For those of you who would also like to share your talent with us--there's still time to join in on this month's challenge. Click---->HERE for details on the challenge and download instructions!!

Challenge 23 - Christmas card using non-traditional colours: Carole's turn

Hi everyone, it's my turn to show my card, or should I say 'cards' as I made 2 again. This month's theme is Christmas cards using non-traditional colours, so we'd like you to use something other than red and green.  I really couldn't make up my mind what colour to use, so I made one in blue, white and silver, and one in pink, white and silver. This gorgeous reindeer image is called Leap of Joy, and I think the silver touches in the cards do make them quite Christmassy. 

More details can be found on my blog, which you can find HERE.

Challenge #23--Christmas Card Using Non-Traditional Colours--Shannah's Turn

Hi Everyone!
Welcome to my November post for Sundays with Crissy!!

For this month we would like to see "Christmas Cards Using Non-Traditional Colours!"
That means none of the usual red and green that is everywhere this time of year ;)  We want you to think outside the (Christmas) box and show us what you come up with!

I've chosen Crissy's adorable new image "Sharing the Warmth", available from Whimsy Stamps for my card. Aren't they so cute snuggling together for warmth? I have to admit I'm not a huge fan of mice (we grow wheat here in country South Australia, so the grain brings mice plagues - horrid little blighters! But there is no way these cute little snuggle bugs could be the same things! Crissy manages to make EVERYTHING cute!! ;)

My Mum challenged me to go 'purple' (her favourite colour), and I teamed it with 'aqua' (my favourite colour) and this is what I ended up with...

And a close-up of Crissy's image...

I'd love you to pop over to my blog Embellished ExpresShan's for a visit and see more details about my card!

Now it's your turn to show us your 'CHRISTMAS CARD IN NON-TRADITIONAL COLOURS'!! There will be five free digi's given to one lucky challenge participant who will be chosen by Random.org at the end of the month! You may now use images from any company and still be included in the draw for the blog candy prize! Those who use one of Crissy's images, either from her rubber or digital collections will be entered twice in the draw. But please respect the rule of no more than three entries per month. Otherwise your entries could be deleted.

You can link up you project on Sarah's post by clicking HERE. Just find the Blue Linky button and add your project! (She has all the instructions!)

Hope you all have a fabulous week and have fun with those Christmas cards!

Hugs, Shannah xox

Challenge #23--Christmas Card Using Non-Traditional Colours--Sarah's Turn

Greetings Stampers!!! It's challenge time again at Sundays With Crissy and this month we would like to see "Christmas Cards Using Non-Traditional Colours". That means no red & green. Now how easy is that?

For this month's challenge I actually inked up some rubber (gasp). I have been so digitally spoiled lately, LOL, but I just love this image Crissy did awhile back for High Hopes Stamps called "Christmas Kitty Fun"!! And seeing as I have two little fur babies that fit this image, that made it all the more fun. So here are Yuki (Japanese for snow) and Willow being themselves, 'cause that's just what my little darlings would do.

I learned how to make this bow from a cool site called Amazing Paper Grace. Becca does some beautiful work & has some fantastic tutorials!! I will leave the link to this one on my blog.

For more deets on my card go to my blog >>>Sally Cicada Designs!!

Now without futher ado...here are the winners of Crissy's Artist Choice Award, for last month's challenge with the theme of "Thanks/Thanksgiving"!! These are cards/projects that caught my eye for one reason or another, that I felt were the most impressive from the bunch! Ladies, don't forget to pick up your blog award badge on the sidebar for shining this month!!
