Scene Cut Out

I made this scene card at Bettys and she had ordered the kit from the UK! It is so pretty and when held up to light looks like a light box.  I want to try to make some with my electric cutter too! Had to share this great design and thanks to Betty for the fun gift!

Let It Snow ... SNOWMAN

This card was my stamp friend Lorna's design she made for us, and it is just a blast to make and very easy. I stamped with white craft ink on the red card stock the snowflakes. We used a large circle punch for his head and cut a orange nose free hand. His eyes are black dots and his scarf is staminup ribbon. We added bling to the snowflakes centers and glued onto a navy card base.  I think this is a great card for guys too! 

No Botox Needed

This little bird is telling me to get my act together for Christmas! We are iced in and I have gotten my   tree decorated and working  on the cards to mail out! This bird has been printed twice and cut out and the pine cone and birds hat have pop dots under them for a 3-d look. I like the bright colors and hope you do too! Pick a card you want to make and stamp it twice so you can give your card a uplift with no botox!   

Decorating for Christmas!

I must admit that this little card may be my favorite so far! I got these free stamps in a stamp magazine from the UK! I added the green netting to her skirt and we are ready to decorate for the Holidays! I like the bling and the layers on this card too.  When my card seems dull I just add a layer of something cut out and it it gives the punch it needs. I will be off to make another one as the sleet is falling and we are snuggled in for the day!

Christmas Bird with envelope

This beautiful bird card was part of a stampin up kit that was such a fun set to make! As I listen to the sleet on the windows this morning I am in the mood to snuggle into my craft room and create more fun cards.  I am giving them as pre Christmas gifs this year, a set of cards and a nice colored pen to my sweet friends! The tag is the main focal point and the bird and sentiment looks very  pretty as the accent on this card. Our new catty has the best tag punch ever in it so you get that perfect tag top every time! You can order from it in January!  The bakers twine and little button gives the special top to the tag! 

SANTA IS COOL!

I just love anything with Santa on it and these cards are getting me in the Holiday Spirit! The circle is a die cut (spellbinders I think) and the designer paper is stampinup from last year. I love the Santa postage stamp, I just cut it out of designer paper, and then put it on with pop dots. The Santa  card below I made at Bettys and the Santa is a chip board cut out, we iced the tag and the Santa with brown ink to give a vintage look to the project.  The deck the halls sentiment and the music paper really brought the design all together. The bling and bow added the extra  touch to the finished card. 

ELF HOLLY JOLLY MAGIC!

I really do need some elf magic! I have been down in my back and will have a pain block on Tuesday so I may not be posting a regular as I should!  Keep me in your prayers please! I had to post these cute elf shoes and yes my stamp buddy Betty and I made these we just love them. The shoes are cut from the stampinup top note die. It is one of the most versatile die I have and I just use it as my go to, when I want to add something special to a card or scrapbook.  The stripped paper gives the added color for his stockings! The holly was fussy cut out of designer paper and then a little bling added to his shoes! If you do not have the die you can order from me! Have fun getting ready for Santa!
