Peppermint Dreams

Woohoo for Saturday... yes it is around 4ish here in Hawaii and no this is not a scheduled post... i'm really up at this hour... LOL... i look forward to the weekends when i can actually stay in my craft room until the wee hours... quietness of night helps a lot... no screaming children and no interruptions... i have another card to share with you that i really really like... and this card is made for these challenges:

Little Paper Shop #38 - Sketch by Julia... it's a fabulous sketch if you like to embellie...

Cute Card Thursday #83 - Candy Corns... the DT wants to see your sweet/candy themed creations...

and i think it may even count for FFF at TGF for the "punchy" challenge...

OMGosh, putting this card together was making my mouth water for a Peppermint White Chocolate Mocha Frappacino from Starbucks.... mmmmm, can't wait until those babies come out... onward to my card...
catching the Christmas bug and trying to get ahead (uh-huh, yah right) i did up a sweet christmas card... this so reminds me of the book "T'was the night before Christmas"... remember the kids dreaming of all those sweet treats?! yep, so inked up HG Snuggle by TGF and colored her snuggly in Christmas jammies with her old faithful friend that i'll call bunny bear (yah, very random, don't ask, LOL)... sleep walking?!? maybe... to find some Christmas sweets... i absolutely adore the candy themed DP by American Crafts called Merrymint... it's very pretty IRL! you can even see it shine a bit in the pix... on the LPS sketch there were three circles i believe are meant for embellies... but then again, however you see the sketch is what you will create... my original intention was to just use buttons, but a light bulb turned on after i saw some cellophane on my other desk... so i wrapped and wrapped the buttons up in pieces of cellophane and tied it with red sparkly Christmas ribbon so it would stay closed and used thin pop up dots to secure them on to the card... now that's what i consider (for me) a creative moment... hahaha! don't know how i came up with that one... it is really cute though... ok, enough rambling... didn't add to much to the card because the DP just shines with the adorable image... simple yet fun! Dream Sweet!
