Hello all! Yet another miserable wet day here in Essex and I've got a couple of cards to post. The first is for Just Christmas & Birthday Cards Challenge who've got a sketch to follow this week. I've used the sketch to make a card for my hubbie who's birthday it is on Sunday. I bought this Changito Monkey stamp especially for him as he's on his laptop which is very apt for my hubbie who designs computer games for a living! I especially love the banana instead of the apple on the PC! I coloured Changito in using Lyra pencils and I've used one of my fav colour combos using papers by Pebbles Inc.
Here is a little close up of the cute chapie!
Crafty stash used: Stamp (Stampendous); Lyra pencils; Papers (Pebbles Inc); Assorted cardstock; Nesties; Ribbons (recycled); Button (Sizzix)
My second challenge entry is for Cupcake Craft Challenge who's topic this week is "Snow" and Colour Create who's colour combo is blue, silver and white.
I made this card using some recycled snowflakes pulled off an old christmas card- I think they work really well. The papers are by Papermania and the sentiment is by See D's- again I did a bit of tricky overstamping but, hey, that's what See D's are for!!
And another little close up!
Crafty stash used: Stamp (See D's); Papers (Papermania); Assorted cardstock; Nesties; Corner rounder punch; Snowflakes (recycled); Sticky lace (?)

Both of your cards are gorgeous but I am loving those snowflakes on you CCC card. Fantastic work and thanks for playing along.
Two great cards, specially like the first one.
Two fabulous cards Steph - love the Changito and the layout is fab.
Those snowflakes on your CC card are gorgeous - great to strip down cards to re-use the bits isn't it (trouble is I can never find them when I want them lol). Well done you - your over-stamping is perfect.
Thanks so much for playing along with us at CC.
