Hello peeps! What a busy Tuesday it is! Two posts in one day again! If you'd like to check out my TSOT post, it's HERE. Hopefully things will get back to normal soon! I was thrilled to be asked by Justin at Stamp Ink Paper to be a guest designer for November! I just love their challenges! The first week is always a sketch..and what a nice one it is:
My Foxy Friends set was sadly neglected, so I pulled it out, along with some Presents and Pinecones DSP and went to work:
Now, we all know that foxes are never Mint Macaron in real life, but doesn't this little fellow look cute stamped in this shade? I added some Emerald Envy eyes and legs, a little Cherry Cobbler bow, and a sentiment from the retired set Merry Crittermas:
I added a strip of the opposite side of the pine DSP along the left side, along with a little stitched strip of Cherry Cobbler cardstock! It adds such a nice contrast! And I diecut the squares with the Layering Squares dies too!
I hope that you'll play along with the SIP sketch this week! There are so many great possibilities with this sketch!
Last week, Cassidy brought home a Traveling Panda! Each week, a student takes the panda home and writes about their "adventures" in a journal. The following week it goes back to school and goes home with the next student! Cassidy named her panda Mandy! We had such a busy week, we didn't do too much with her but I do have a few pix to share! Cassidy loves to write, so it was a good experience for her! And Mandy is also wearing a sweater that I knitted for another doll, which makes me feel good!
Enjoy your day!

I love how you arranged the papers on this card. Lovely card, and more inspiration for me!
I have not liked that stamp set until now...it is so cute and I prefer the fox in the colors you chose. Cassidy's panda is cute too!
Oh I am loving this card! That fox is adorable used for Christmas and I am starting to love that DSP! I think I really need to order it! LOL Enjoyed the picture of Cassidy & Mandy! It brought back a memory for me to when Kelsey was little. Each student was about to bring home a stuffed penguin for a week then tell the class the what they did with it. I think this may have been preschool but it was so fun and since then she has had a love for penguins! TFS your adorable card today & this wonderful memory! Happy November 1st! :)
What a sweet Christmas card! I love the colors and the layout you used. Perfect!
The card and your little one are adoreable...thanks!
I love the colors on your adorable card!! Speaking of adorable, that would be Miss Cassidy and her perfectly dressed panda Mandy!! What a cute idea and so much fun for the kids!!
