One More

Hi Everyone,
Here is one more project I wanted to post. I've also had some white paper bags floating around my craft table and didn't know what to do with them. I know Christmas is coming and I thought it would be really cute to make some type of decorated bag that I could put some treats in. The holly is made with the oval punch (I got this I idea from attending my friend, Tiffany's, stamp a stack). She used the oval punch to make flower petals for a card (I think she may have gotten the idea from Alicia). Anyway, I just expanded on the idea and used the small circle punch for the berries. I used the scalloped edge punch for the top of the bag. Let me know what you think. :)

Santa Bag

I don't know where I saw it, I think it was on someone's blog. She used a red bag and added a black strip for the belt and another color for the buckle. I thought I could improve on the same look and I had a bunch of white bags that have just been sitting in one of my craft drawers! So here is my take on the bag. For those of you who really love this, I will be offering a class, another $5 one, to make this bag with a card. Details to follow soon!

One More Card

This card I absolutely love for two reason. I love the look of the poinsetta and I love the font used for Christ is Born. I knew I had to order the set! I think it is really a beautiful stamp set. So here you go. I welcome any comments! By the way I don't know if I spelled poinsetta correctly but I tried.

Chirstmas Card

No, I'm still not done. Here is a card I made that was inspired by http://dawnsstampingthoughts.typepad.com/. I actually made the same type of card using the filagree brads but later made a mistake in thinking I had enough of them. Not!! I had to change the card at the last minute and used pearls instead and changed the colors a bit. I still love the card though!

Another Card

Okay,
here is another card that I came up with for my stamp a stack of Christmas cards. The snowman is also from the same set; Shellabrate the Season. As soon as I saw the snowman, I knew what I was going to do with the card. Let me know what you think :)

Lots of Posts

Hi All,
I have been going through computer withdrawals, printer withdrawals and everything else you could imagine that involves any electronic device. My computer just got fixed and my printer decided it liked the idea of a fixed computer so here I am blogging today and posting a lot of projects that I've made. The first photos will be of cards that I made my stamp a stack of Christmas Cards class, which was just a couple of weeks ago. This card was made with the Shellabrate the Season set. I love the tree made out of shells, especially because I live in California. I don't know if you can tell, but I have snowflakes embossed on the background. I used markers to color in the image. Enjoy!!
