Whimsy and Stars Studio Stamp Release Celebration!

Today is a brand new Whimsy and Stars Studio Stamp Release. Today we are featuring a "Fall" digital stamp called "Pumpkin Sunflower Teddy". Isn't he adorable!!! As always, be leaving a comment on the main blog, you will have a chance to win a free digital image from Mabelle's store!

I decided to use some new Doodlebug Papers and a SRM Sticker for the sentiment. I used an old "standby" sketch for me...one that I love to use when I am using lots of layers and lots of papers!!!

I am also linking my card up to the following challenges:

Paper Issues -Use Twine

365 Days-Harvest Pick

Pile it On-Tic Tac Toe-Pattern Paper, Punches and Autumn Colours

Merry Monday #29-"Christmas Cheer"

Welcome to another week at Merry Monday!  The idea behind this challenge is to get a head start on your Christmas cards!  Each week, I choose one Merry Monday Winner who will then be a Guest Designer for a future challenge!  So get out your Christmas supplies and let's get to work!  

I was excited to design for this week, but I didn't quite follow my sketch exactly...I was inspired by a couple of challenges which just made me need to use three strips of paper instead of two! So my third piece represents the ribbon in my sketch! I LOVE this Stampin' Up stamp set called "Lacy and Lovely", it is so much fun to use with punches and I think it is so pretty! I have been using it all week, so my upcoming design team cards might start to look the same! Ha! Do you think it is ok for a Christmas card?

I created my card using my sketch above and the following challenges, I hope these challenges do not mind that I have used them with my challenge! Thank you for the wonderful inspiration!

365 Cards: Colour Combo-Rose is on the design team for this group, she always joins in at Merry Monday, so I wanted to support her challenge too! Thank you Rose!
