In the Meadow we can build a SnowMan

Hi Everyone!!
This will be my last post for Christmas cards for a few days... I need a break!!!
Here's the last of the cased cards I did from Michelle Wooderson, she is so talented and has some of the freshest ideas.....
Here's my take on her Snowman card;


 As with the other two cards I used different papers and punches than Michelle did....
I stayed with the same colors and paper I used for my other 2 cards so they would match and make a good set. 
Here's a good close up of the Snowman.... on that BIG Snow flake.......
Here's the things I used; 
  • Papertrey ink stamp set / In the Meadow
  • Papertrey ink die set / In the Meadow
  • Martha Stewart border punch / Rain Drop
  • Spellbinders Pendant / Lattice
  •  Stampendous! Embossing Powder / Star Dust-Transparent
  • Memento Rich Cocoa ink

  • Paper used by; Stampin' Up, Creative Memories, and some unknown??

Will here's mine for today;

Yep you guessed it, I'm making Christmas Cards....
These are the last batch I have for my Mom's order... If you enlarge the pic you will see some of the other cards I've finished in bags at the top of the desk.
But for these I'm doing now I still have to use the glitter embossing stuff on the large doileys.... that's the part I hate the most.... I seam to make the biggest mess when ever I use powery STUFF.... glitter, embossing, will you get the idea...... and of course it's on every one of my Christmas Cards this year... what is wrong with me???
If you look back at the last 2 or 3 posts on my blog you'll see the cards and things I used.
Later today maybe I'll bet back to doing the rest of my cards too...
I am SOOoooo behind this year.....!
Will that's it for me, off I go to see what everyone else is up to!!

Thanks for stopping by again!
Hope you Enjoyed!!

Snowflakes Sparkle

Yep! I'm still doing Christmas and may be for the rest of the week I think....
As I posted yesterday I cased this idea too from Mishelle Wooderson, she has such clean a fresh ideas I just love her work.  As with my card yesterday I used different papers and punches but cased her layout.
Here's my version.let me know what you think;

Here you can see the front and the inside at the same time...

here's a close up of the snow... I cut wavey white card stock and then just glitter the edge to make the drifts show up, very simple.  The little guy on the sleigh is a Papertrey ink stamp and then cut it out with there die... just popped him up a little.

and here's my version of the snow flakes... I used my Creative memories Snowflake punch and then cut it out with a CM circle punch and then used the next size circle punch for the brown craft, a little red spunging sets it off.  A littel button & a little string...
I very pleased with the outcome and plan to make another version with different papers of this one. 

Here's the things I used;
  • Papertrey ink stamp set / In the Meadow
  • Papertrey ink die set / In the Meadow
  • Martha Stewart border punch / Rain Drop
  • Creative Memories Snowflake punch and Circle punches
  • Close to my Heart / Prisma Glitter
  • Memento Rich Cocoa ink
  • Paper used by; Stampin' Up, Creative Memories, and some unknow??

Thanks for stopping by again!
Hope you Enjoyed!!

Christmas Deer

Hi Everyone!
Will I'm finally back for a while, been out of town then it took me forever to get back in the swing of things... but here I am... Yea!
Yesterday I used a New set of stamps and dies I ordered from Papertrey ink, had never used there things before but all is made in the USA so had to try them.... and will they are very nice!
But you be the judge:

The Papertrey ink set I used for the deer and tree are from there set called In the Meadow, and I also got the Die set that goes with this too.  That's how I cut the tree out- SO EASY!  then I used Martha Stewart tinsel glitter Olivine, got that last year off the SALE table, yea!  the sentiments are from a dollar stamp set from 4Klear Stamps.  I stampe everything inside and out using Memento's Rich Cocoa.

here's a close up of the tree with the tinsel... the pics really don't show how pretty this looks.

and here's the inside, I restamped the tree in a lighter green and place a strip of the DP paper over it and ten used the Merry Christmas from the same dollar stamp set and the rest from CTMH set-Peace on Earth D-1243.  Love this set too has all kinds of Christmas sayings. 

If any of you gals use Papertrey ink dies let me know how you used the dies that are in groups... I tried cutting them out then stamping them but that did not seam to be right ...???? any suggestions?

For some reason my pics are YCKY... though I had this figured out before I left, gusee not.....

Thanks for stopping by again!
Hope you Enjoyed!!
