Puzzle Purse

Hi Ladies,
It's been a few weeks since I've posted anything. Will I'm back, I think.......
Here's something I found from an OLD Martha Stewart magazine. It's from the 1790's and was a sweetheart exchange at Valentines Day or other special occasions.
Here it is all closed the way you would receive it. It's a 4x4 square.



Next the first set of points are pulled out.

Then you pull it up a little.

And here's it's open to reveial the center.

You can cut papers to decorate it or, do stamping or, write a secret note or, pictures or, All of the above. I'm not sure what I'm going to use this for yet but had to show you.

Hope you ejoyed!

Below are two cards I made using a new stamp set from "My Favorite Things", So, So Cute!!

Here you can see where I used clear glass beads on the bubbles, makes them look almost real.

Hope you enjoyed!

Christmas 2009

Hi Everyone!
Last week I worked on my Christmas cards for this year, and got them all finished. YEA!!!
I used Bazzill Red Robin for the base
Creative Memories-Honeydew paper for the medallion
Then SU-Wisper White for the SU-Raindeer from the set Heard from the Heart
Stampd with CTMH Ink color Vineyard Berry ink and Black


Here's a closer look at the Raindeer. Check out how I punch out a second circle than I colored just the raindeer on that circle. I also added Red glitter to his noise, and gold to his antlers.

Now I'll start working on Mom's Christmas Cards.... Unless my new CTMH stamps come in....

Enjoy!

Magnolia 3-D

I'm trying this SU-Magnolia stamp out and think it worked out rather nicely. The next shot shows the 3-D affect I was trying.



Not the best shot I know but you get the idea of how I cut some of the leave and put them down flat and some are 3-D...and the whole flower is 3-D..

Hope you ejoy!
