Cute Card Thursday - Anything Goes

Our theme at Cute Card Thursday this week is a 'Anything Goes'. 
As always, we welcome your own interpretation. 

Need quick and easy, last minute Christmas cards? I used some super cute dies from Whimsy Stamps for these CAS cards.


The first card uses the Holly Vine Die from Whimsy Stamps.
I cut out the shape from the white card stock and used the negative on the card. I used the Hand Stitched Nest Rectangles from Whimsy Stamps for a simple border on the white cardstock. I backed it onto some red cardstock, added a sentiment from Whimsy Stamps Scripty Occasions clear stamp set and added a few enamel dots from Whimsy Stamps Christmas Cheer collection.





 



For my second card I cut out the 'snow hill' using the Pierced Border Trio dies from Whimsy Stamps. The sentiment was stamped onto the card using the In My Backyard clear stamp set from Whimsy Stamps. I used snowflake dies from Whimsy Stamps - Snowflake dies and Layered Snowflake Dies.

 


Hope this has given you some quick and easy ideas!

As always, we welcome your own interpretation.

This image is called 'Christmas Penguin' by Lee Holland - available at Whimsy Stamps store. Such an adorable image!!


I colored the image using my prismacolor pencils.

Whimsy Stamps Penguins are Present

Another new digital stamp from Whimsy Stamps - Penguin's are Present by Crissy Armstrong.


I printed this image out onto a variety of papers from Whimsy Stamps Christmas Cheer 6x6 paper pad. I then fussy cut them out and stuck the image back together. The penguins were colored in with my prismacolor pencils.
The sentiment background paper was made up using the Scripted Holiday Digital Sentiments from Whimsy Stamps. I used my Silhouette Studio package to highlight the sentiments and 'copy' them out for a background.
A little twine and the card was finished!
