hanging ornaments- blue

One more variation of the cards I have posted this week. Changing up the colors can do a lot if you like the layout of the cards and since I have had 2 craft fairs to make cards for I wanted lots of variety for buyers. I did the same thing on these cards by first stamping the image of the ornaments on the green cardstock (this one is from Clear Dollar Stamps but has been retired) then I stamped the same image on pattern paper. I cut the images out of the pattern paper and adhered them on over the images on the green cardstock with pop dots. The sentiment is from Close To My Heart's- Holiday Cheer set. I also added some glitz glitter to the stars on this one as you can see in the bottom picture. You can see the other examples by clicking HERE and HERE

hanging ornaments- pink

These were pretty easy, all I used was a stamp set from Clear Dollar Stamps called Ornament Accents but it has been retired :( I stamped the image where I wanted it, stamped it again on some pattern paper and cut those images out. Then I pop dotted them over the top off the images on the white card. I added some ribbon and a cute sentiment from Close To My Heart- Holiday Cheer and it was done :)

Reindeer snowflake card

 I love this snowflake cut from When Its Cold Outside. I'm not sure that I have cut many others from that cartridge because I always go directly to that one! I cut this at 3-3/4 inches, added some red stickles to the noses, I also went over the top with Desert Sand ink to make the details show up better. I added some adhesive jewels to the tips of the snowflake and some silver stickles to the star in the middle. Stamp is from Close To My Heart
 I'm entering this in the Fantabulous Cricut Challenge

Christmas card with tag day 2

This is the other cards I made with the same idea as yesterday's post. I used some dark blue bazzill card stock and some dark red from provocraft. I used a Martha Stewart punch for the border and added 3 white brads. The sentiment is from Holiday Cheer and the cutout is from the Art Philosophy cartridge

Christmas card with tag

 Hello Everyone, I hope you guys all had a great Thanksgiving and now that its over I thought I would share some of the Christmas cards I have been making. These were originally going to be tags but I decided I didn't want to mess with that for the craft fair and already had the tags cut so I finished them up and then added them to a card. I used some lime green paper and the cuttlebug with the snowflakes plate to emboss and then sand a little to let more white show through. I also inked the edges of the white card with some Cranberry from CTMH and finished it off with the stamp from Holiday Cheer and cut from the Art Philosophy cartridge bundle. There is also some Twine and I added a little Bitty Sparkle on the star under the saying.

Go Wild! favors

 Here are the cupcake wrappers we cut. These are from the Cupcake Wrapper cartridge cut at 2 inches. They also covered candy bars with the same paper and came up with lots of other super cute ideas to go along with the theme.

Go WILD!

I made these cards last month for a church activity. A friend of mine serves in the Young Women's program and they were having their annual Young Women In Excellence. The theme was "We Seek After These Things" and they did all sorts of seeking in the jungle. I thought the cards turned out fun for the young girls and ledft a spot for her to add a message if she wanted. Stay tuned tomorrow for some cupcake wrappers I cut and some extra pictures of the evening of the other fun stuff they made up :)
I cut my monkeys, vines and zebras from Create A Critter at 2-1/2 inches and the grass was cut at 5.30 from Paper Doll Dress-Up on my Gypsy to fit the card base

this is it... last of the fence cards

This is the last set of fence cards I made. I used the DCWV Linen Closet stack, CTMH's Say It In Style and My Pink Stamper stamps. I also used the flutter paper shapes and inked the edges with Desert Sand. I finished it off with some twine from The Twinery.
 I thought I had these done but then I decided to ink the edges to make the butterflies stand out more.
