Isn't it a wonderful list of sponsors? I have four cards to share with you.
My first card uses Beer Background Papers and Beer Mug from Dr. Digi.
The card base is from a pack of 50 of 6.5" x 5" from Recollections. The white and black cardstocks are also from Recollections. Inside stamp is called Good Times and it's by Cardz TV.
My second card is made with the Winnie Winterland Polar Friends image from Polkadoodles
I started off with a 5.5" x 5.5" card base from Recollections and turned it into a twisted easel card.
Then I designed the snowflakes around the edge of a piece of navy blue linen cardstock.
I used snowwhite and silver embroidery floss but was a little disappointed with the results as I feel there isn't enough contrast between the two.
I coloured the image using copic markers and then stamped tiny snowflakes to represent snow falling.
This is what the card looks like when flat and ready to mail.
On the inside, I also continued with the tiny snowflakes and stamped the sentiment using a stamp from Christmas Sayings by Creative Expressions. I punched out a snowflake, using MS punch, several times and stacked them to give me an adequate stopper for the easel part of the card.
For my third card, I used Easter Chicky image from Sparkle 'n Sprinkle.
As you know by now, I enjoy using pre-coloured images and this was one of them.
Isn't this the cutest little chick?
The base of the card is Silhouette design number 75800.
I used the pre-coloured chicky image and added the greeting to the half of the cracked egg.
I cut out the pre-coloured swag of flowers and adhered it to the base of the egg.
I went over them with Wink of Stella clear pen and added a gem to centre of each flower for a little something extra.
I enlarged the half cracked egg and cut it out. Then I stamped my Easter sentiment on it.
This stamp is from the Cardz TV Easter Punnies stamp set. I also cut a bunch of the flowers to fill up the black space on my card.
And last, but not least, here is my fourth card made with the very cute Rory Ski Slopes from Lacy Sunshine.

And of course, when there is a bloghop, there is blog candy to be won :-)
I will send a surprise package of crafting goodies to one lucky friend who leaves me some love on this post. I would love for you to become a follower of my blog too, but it is not necessary to be entered in the draw. I will pick a winner next Tuesday, 2 January 2018 and announce it on the very first Crafty Gals Post of 2018 which will be on the 3rd of January. International entries are welcome and will be entered in the draw but instead of a package of goodies, you will receive a gift certificate to an online store.
I hope I have inspired you to make a project or two and join in our celebration fun. You have till noon, CST, on Tuesday, 2 January 2018 to link your project to the Crafty Gals Corner blog. As we come to the end of 2017, I want to wish you and yours a very Happy New Year and thank you for your friendship and support.
Hugs,
Lena
