A message from Spot

Awwww, check out this little guy named Spot?...is he cute or what?! Love him! He's a brand new digi that was just released this month. I combined him with a sentiment from my Woof You stamp set. The card measures 4" square and I sparkled up the collar with some waterfall Stickles.

Have an awesome day!

You're #1!

I'm going to switch it up a little today and take a step away from the Christmas/winter cards. (Even though I'm not even done with my Christmas cards! lol) But I was in need of a birthday card for a young boy so I printed off "Cocoa loves soccer". I kept the card simple and went with the boy's school colors (black/white).

Card measures 4 1/4 x 4 1/4. Background is cuttlebug'd with the swiss dot folder. Colored Cocoa with Prismacolor pencils and blended with odorless minerals. Cocoa is cut out of the circle and cut out with a circle Spellbinder and then layered onto a scalloped circle Spellbinder. Entire layer is on dimensions. Did a faux layer, by using a black marker, around the digital Sports Sentiments. On the inside I wrote "Happy Birthday, All Star!" Added a ribbon tied in a knot at the top to finish off my card.

I love simple and quick cards and am really pleased at how this turned out. And with that I will leave you with this....... only 7 more days until Christmas! (eeeeeeeeekkkkkkkkk)

A Merry Little Christmas

I have a cute Christmas card to show you today which could pretty easily be reproduced. This would also make a nice generic winter card as well if you change the sentiment. I used the emboss resist technique for the background behind my snowman. The "snow" is torn paper strips edges with snow glitter and stickles. The snowman from the Welcome Jesus set was colored with copics, cut out and adhered with foam tape between the snow layers. This image is also available in digi form called Smiley Snowman which would be great to use if you still have more Christmas cards to finish.



I just love this cute little snowman- don't you?

Have a fabulous day!!

Blue Christmas

Hello! Ever since I first saw this December Poinsettia I wanted to do one in Blue. I Love looking at them in the stores and seeing all the different colors they alter them into now. They sometimes even sprinkle them with pretty glitter! I added sparkle to mine with a Sakura clear glitter pen, then I added silver pearls to finish it off. The Poinsettia is available as a digi or as a stamp set!

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!! Only 9 more days till Christmas!!

Candy Container

Oh my, it seems that I am all "carded" out.  Every time I step into my scrap room, I feel the need to make something, just not a card.  Lucky for me, I had this cute little mini-paint can sitting waiting for me.  I filled it with Christmas M&M's and wrapped it with a quick strip of paper.  Then I punched out a snowflake and a tag and added them.  I finished it off with Spot the Dog and Santa's hat.  I added some stickles to the snowflake and some Liquid Applique on his hat...I love how it makes it all puffy.

This time of year, there are so many people that my kids would love to give gifts to, and something small and handmade is perfect.  It came together very quickly and I can see making more of these to have on hand...just think what we could do with different hats for spot...Birthday's, Valentine's Day, St. Patricks, Fishing Hat....ooh, this could be fun!  My Christmas Spot bucket will be going to the babysitter. 

Only 11 days until Christmas!

Feel Better Paulie

So many people I know are sick right now, so I decided to break out this sweet digi to make a card for someone feeling under the weather.

The image is called Feel Better Paulie and the sentiment is from a new set being released January 1st. The striped DP is from Eskimo Kisses by Basic Grey.

I know the card is a tad girlie (ok, maybe a lot girlie) for a "boy" bear but, I couldn't help myself :). Poor Paulie.....he sure looks like he could use a pick-me-up, doesn't he ;)?

Happy Monday!
