Foxtastic Friends

Hi Crafty Friends,
I'm sharing a foxtastic fall friendship card with you today to encourage you to join the Poppy Stamps September Challenge: Anything Goes. My card features Poppy Stamps Nordic Waving Fox Die and Poppy Stamps Pumpkin Patch Dies. I added glittery details, gold accents, and a sparkly patterned background to give the whole design a fun seasonal shine.

Make Crafty Friends Q & A:
Q: Do you have foxes where you live?
A: Me? I never see them by me but my dad has a whole family that lives in his yard

I started my card by die cutting the darling fox and giving her a glittery fall outfit. She is so easy to put together.

Next, I die cut the pumpkins in two different shades of orange cardstock and glitter cardstock to match my fox's dress. 

I mounted the pumpkins and fox along the bottom of the Poppy Stamps Scallop Pinpoint Rectangle Die frame. Then, I arranged gold gems to accent my scene.

Penguin Winter Sled Ride

Hi Crafty Friends,
This playful Christmas card features two sweet Poppy Stamps Santa Penguins sledding on the Poppy Stamps Winter Sled Die through a snowy Poppy Stamps Trimmed Trees Dies forest scene. I kept the colors classic with red, green, and white, then added the bold Merry Christmas sentiment for a cheerful holiday finish.

Make Crafty Friends Q & A:
Q: Do you go sledding in the winter?
A: Me? If it would ever snow enough again!

I started my card by creating the background for my little penguins. I die cut the sled out of kraft paper and gray for the sled rails and mounted it at the top of my snowy hill. Then I cut the trees out of two shades of green and mounted them along the hill all the way down.


Next, I made my penguins to go on the sled. I made one with a Santa Hat and one with a bow from the Poppy Stamps Coffee Penguin so there would be a boy and a girl to go down the hill together.

I finished my card by adding the penguins to the sled and putting the Poppy Stamps Merry Christmas Cheerful Script Die in red at the bottom in the right corner.
