CCEE2246 - Seaside Holiday

 November CCEE Stampers Hostess, Maryann Einam, has one last fun challenge for the CCEE Stampers for the month of November.

She says, "Whatever the season, it is great to get away and celebrate the day with a seaside holiday. Use the seaside for inspiration for your card today."

Well, my family and I celebrate the Christmas holidays together at the beach each and every year so this challenge is right up my alley.

My card features images from Unity and Rubbernecker with die cuts from Momenta and Spellbinders.

Here are the seaside celebrations created by the other members of

the CCEE Design Team.

Fun Folds - CCEE2245

Mary Ann, our November CCEE Stampers Hostess, has another great challenge for us today! She says, "Receiving cards is so much fun, a fun fold card with a wow factor gives so much joy to the recipient." She has therefore asked the CCEE Stampers to create a card with more than a center fold. Think of a easel, pop-up, center step or shutter card.

I have created this oval flip card for my new great grandson! I used the Dancin' Santa (his legs swing back and forth) dies from Spellbinders and this fun sentiment from Rubberneckers. I "think" the Naughty or Nice dies are also from Spellbinders. The designer paper is from the Paper Studio.

CCEE2238 - National Coffee Day

 Our CCEE September Hostess, Kelly McKown-Santi is the Queen of Coffee so of course on National Coffee Day, she has asked us to create a card that has something to do with coffee.

I must admit that I didn't become a coffee fan until about 10 years ago, but now I can not start a day without it.

My card uses designer paper from Graphic 45, a die cut coffee cup from Sizzix, and a fabulously fun sentiment from Rubberneckers.

Thanks, Kelly, for a fabulous month of fun challenges!! What fun I had creating each and every one!!

CCEE2125 - National Eagle Day

Hi friends! Kelly McKown-Santi, our CCEE hostess for June, has a fun challenge for the CCEE Stampers today. Since June 20 is National Eagle Day in the USA, Kelly has asked us to celebrate this national symbol. It’s a time for us to focus our awareness on the bald eagle and ways to preserve the bird's natural habitat. Kelly wants us each to use an eagle on our card or project to celebrate this winged treasure!

Floral and sentiment by Rubbernecker Stamps.
