Less is More - Week 199 - Recipe

Hooray it's the weekend!  Time for a recipe challenge at Less is More and our recipe this week is "Jingle all the Way".


 First up is a Bugaboo funny.  I have a lovely, gentle dog called Stella, nothing like the tough broad in this Stella digital image!  The sentiment is by Stampotique, I bought it in the post-Christmas sale at Stamp Attic a few years back and love it, it always makes me smile.  Stella is coloured with Copics, Glossy Accents on her specs and some Glamour Dust.

I'm entering my card for the Sisterhood of Snarky Stamper's P is for Profanity Challenge, though this is rather mild and, more typically, I swear like a trooper!


 
My second card uses an image from Google of the music for Jingle Bells.  I've added some Distress Ink to it and stamped on Tim Holtz trees.  The diecut word is from a Tim Holtz set of Christmas words that I bought at the NEC.

  6. Great cards Anne, but I must admit that 'Stella' is my favourite.
    I have several of Stella and Gus digi images, and always get asked for cards with them on.
    If this was Gus I know the perfect person for this card.
    'Christmas! Baa Humbug! is always his comment!!

    Love Sheila x

  7. Really, really fantastic, Anne! Love the "old broad" as she might be called. I recently wrote a sentiment that says "Merry flocking everything!" I'm happy to share it with you...
