December Birthdays!

I know it's been a while since I've posted but time has just gotten away from me....

Can't believe I have time today to do this but here I am....

This was our sons Birthday card from earlier this month...

He loves to fish so this was right up his alley.

Had this CTMH stamp set that I got a few years back and had never used... will this was just the ticket for this card.  I used some wire I had from something and wound it around from the pole to the fish...

Here's a better look at how I did the wire.....

And this is the inside... can you tell he already had received this.....?

I left the border open across the top so we could put a gift card in there for him...

He loved it... will he loved the gift card anyway...!

Thanks for stopping by again!

Hope you Enjoyed!!

 Every Wednesday Julie Dunnit hosts a gathering of crafters of all kinds from everywhere to share what they are working on, by taking a pic of your play area.

Will here's mine for today;

I had to make something for Mom to put little gifties in for our Family Get Together this weekend.... so I remembered some little Bags I had and tried to remember how I did them before....

Here they are after I glued the bows on and letting them dry a little before I take some pics........

Here are all 4 finished with bows and all....

And here the inside of one so you can see how I did that...

The bags are 3 1/2 x 2 x 6 3/4 Celebrate It Kraft #1's

I cut 2 1/5" off the top of the bags to make them shorter....

Then I used a Martha Stewart corner punch on the corners and center of the bag top.....

I used K&Company Die-Cut Cardmaking Pad for my outside paper,

I left it 9" long but made them only 3 1/4" wide, then foled it in half...

That's the front and back.. and just taped it to the back of the bag...

Then I just decoreted each one a little different

Add a Velcro thingie to close it...

That's it...

Thanks for stopping by again!

Hope you Enjoyed!!

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??

Thanks for stopping by again!

Hope you Enjoyed!!

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??
