Winner will receive the Trim the Tree Cricut Cartridge!

Be sure to visit the blog and join in the challenge. You just need to use 1 Cricut cut to qualify for this week's prize.

 

My project today are some jars of candy that I will be giving to my childrens' teachers. I will also be adding a giftcard but I thought that the candy looked festive.

The cute little wooden spoons are from Jaded Blossom. I made a tag using My Mind's Eye paper ( a tag from Tags, Bags and More Cricut cartridge) and this cute owl and snowflakes from Lawn Fawn. I colored in the owl with my copic markers.

 This jar I kept very simple, it has a cute little tag and one of my fun ribbon bows. I filled it with peppermint bells and Hershey kisses.

Thanks for visiting today. I hope that you have time to visit FCCB and join in the challenge.

Quickest Card ever!

Hi everyone, Welcome to the 25 Days of Christmas. Today is Day 15. I have a super easy card for you all. By this late in the season, the easier the better! This is my last week of work before break so I don't have much time left to make holiday projects.

The paper that I used is from My Mind's Eye. I just used a paper from the stack and a sentiment and it was a done deal!

I am sure that you've got some paper like this in your stash for those last minute quick cards!

Thanks for visiting today.

Joy Ornament!

Hi everyone, Today the Cutters Creek Design team has a 12 Days of Christmas. Today is Day 7 and I have a simple and fun project to share.

 

 To make this ornament its super easy. I used the clear plastic ornaments from Michaels. I then poured a small amount of pledge floor wax in the ornament and swirled it around until the entire inside surface was covered. I poured the excess floor wax back into the container. I then poured Tim Holtz distress glitter in denim and swirled until the inside of the ornament was covered. I then cut the words out of white vinyl and adhered it to my ornament and I now have a cool gift!

Thanks for visiting me today. Be sure to visit the Cutters Creek store order this awesome glitter.

Also, visit the Cutters Creek Design Team blog tomorrow for the next day in the 12 Days of Christmas.

On the 6th day of Christmas...

Hi everyone,

Welcome to my 6th day of the 25 Days of Christmas where I have a craft countdown to Christmas. Today's card is for the Cutters Creek Design Team blog. They are having a 12 Days of Christmas.

 

 

 

Today, I am sharing how I used non-traditional paper and paper pads to make some holiday cards. The paper I used is from Cutters Creek, as part of the 6x6 paper pad club. I also used some bling and tuxedo black memento ink. I also used a "candy cane" striped embossing folder. Be sure to watch the video to get the full recipe and see how it all gets put together.

Lights of Christmas

Hi everyone,
Welcome to Day 4 of the 25 Days of Christmas where I count down with you all by posting a new holiday craft project each day until Christmas! My project today is super easy. It uses some cute stamps from Stamps of Life and the matching dies. I belong to the stamp of the month club and the Die hard club so I get a fun new package each month!

I did cut this shape from the Elegant Edges cartridge. The papers are Echo Park and it's just a super easy card which I need a few of since my die cutting cards definitely take longer to make especially if I am making duplicates!

I also have a fun scrapbook haul to share. Thanks for visiting today, be sure to visit tomorrow to see  another fun holiday project.

Joy 2 Christmas Card

Hi everyone,

Welcome to the 3rd day of the 25 days of Christmas. I had made a card a couple of days ago using the negative of the "Joy" and this card is using the actual die cut. I ran my white card through my cuttlebug using this snowflake folder and then attached my designer paper and added some bling. I finished my card by adding some stickles to the raised snowflakes.

To see how it all gets put together , be sure to watch the video.

 

I hope that you have time to visit my blog tomorrow as I continue my craft count down to Christmas!
