A cup of tea?

This was a simple card using a SU stamp sets and punch, paper doily and ribbon from stash. I empty the teabag first so it wouldn't be bulky and second just to make sure it doesn't spoil or attract bugs :0)

Shoebox Tuesday

For today's shoebox I had another Christmas project. I got the idea from Kay Kalthoff. I used two SU sets. I wanted a really bright sharp brown color for the pine cones but didn't have any so stamped them with rich cocoa then cut them with Brother Scan & Cut and then used a sponge to add some Brilliance ink so it gave it a bit of shimmer plus color

Ornare or Pricking

This was another of the techniques I love to do before the set back in my eyes. It was something easy to do when I wasn't at home.

Happy Hanukkah

Happy Hanukkah!

I have an online friend that is either Jewish or celebrates their holidays so I made this card for her. I used a napkin that I got at JoAnn Fabrics but since it needed a little something I added stickes on some of the stars and liquid pearls on others

Wondrous wreath class in the mail

These are the rest of Frenchie's class in the mail that I started showing you last month. The kit included one fall card, one tag and 4 Christmas. I didn't make the tag, no need when we don't give gifts :0) Since my friends were working on this kit at one of my play days and I had the stamp and die set I worked along them just using my own papers.



This one was too clean and simple so when remaking it would have a layer of green or red paper to still keep the clean & simple but just a little more, plus I would match the colors more...I used scraps so the ink and green paper was not totally the same :0)

Shoebox Thursday

For today's shoebox Kathy had this lovely Christmas card.

The message is by SU, gemstones from The Paper Studio, the ornament is also SU added 3D crystal lacquer & glitter, the swirl is from a set but don't know who makes it :0( The other ladies added stickles but I decided just to add a few red pearls instead
