Welcome to my blog!

Thanks for visiting my blog. As the title suggests, I love to scrapbook, stamp, and sing! I will share cards and scrapbook pages I create, as well as information about my music - Barbershop harmony.

A Nordic Moose scene

TGIF everyone - I'm looking forward to another episode of Craft Roulette tonight - maybe I'll see you there! The slide show with last week's cards starts shortly after 6pm CST.

Meanwhile, I made my third and final entry for Christmas Kickstart #91 where Jo and elf Faith have a lovely mood board (exact matching not required).


Supplies: Paper - Spellbinders A2 card; Neenah white;
Authentique & Recollections blues; scraps of red & pink
Stamps - Hero Arts Jolly Christmas (retired)
Dies - Poppystamps Nordic Moose & Nordic Treeline;
Waffle Flower Christmas Banners;
Elizabeth Craft Designs Lost in the Woods (retired)
Other - Copic Markers; foam tape


I covered an A2 card with a pale blue paper. Next I die cut the trees from a dark blue A2 panel and also from a white one, trimming off the white trees. Shaded the snow a bit with a B0000 Copic. Layered and added to the card. 

Isn't the moose adorable? I die cut him from a medium blue (except the antlers). I die cut the antlers and nostril backing from a pale pink cardstock that I colored over with an E11 Copic to try to get that beige-y pink tone in the mood board. I colored his hooves with a B66 Copic & also shaded his closed eye, then added a white dot so it looks open. Next I die cut his sweater from scraps of red and white, then assembled & added to the card. 

Mr. Moose was looking downward - at what, I wondered? Decided to add a tree stump which I die cut from an ECD outdoorsy set. Next I stamped and colored a birdie from a 2008 HA set. Popped atop the stump & the scene was complete! 

I'll also add my card to Darnell's October NBUS Challenge #67 since my moose and tree dies are newly used.

That's all for now; thanks for stopping!
