My second entry for Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers

I made this card following Elena Anderson's class during the Stress Free Cardmakers Summit. 

I cut out the red postage stamp style piece with my silhouette cameo and also printed the tree using the silhouette software.

I used a green Copic marker to scribble in the tree

I changed it up by adding a peeloff sticker for the sentiment and a holographic star

Hi all,

The challenge this month at Tag Along and ATCs is fashion, so I was pleased to break out a Stampin Up set (Beautiful You) that hasn't come out for quite some time.

I stamped with Versamark black and clear embossed. The red colour is done with Anko Markers (red) and I used DOX  (candied apple) to accent the edges

Sunshine

I was determined to get some time in my craft room today, and managed to make this card.

I used an AALL & Create stencil #161 for the flowers, colouring them with distress inks, 

dried marigold, squeezzed lemonade, and mustard seed. I found a piece of card in my stash which was the perfect colour for the base and used a piece of it 

to adhere the sentiment on.

I also found a toning flower from my stash and used a punch for the stamens

The sentiment is by Sassys LLC

 Hello all,

Todays card uses a lovely dragonfly die that I bought from a fellow crafter. I think it is Alexandra Renke, but I no longer have the packaging. I have cut it from a lovely piece in my scrap box which was coloured with DI's. I oversprayed it lightly with Dylusions in the orange colour, and then embossed to get some texture. I also used it behind the rows of dots (unknown)

I then layered onto my white base card and added a computer generated sentiment
