A Couple of Christmas Cards

I am starting to get into the Christmas spirit and having some fun making cards.

Maybe I will have enough if I start early.

This one is personal because it represents my family.

(Dad, Mom, Hubby, Me, Daughter and the 3 grandkids)

Snowmen - PK 306A Snow Happy Mini colored with copics

Gingerbread kids - ek Success punch

Gingerbread faces- PK 500 Snow Cuties

(I won on the last PKS sketch challenge AWESOME)

I added liquid pearls to the buttons and bow ties and I messed up on the edging so I added some more for mittens and hats.

Cuttlebug Snowflakes embossing folder.

The sentiment is from Crafty Sprouts "Have a Cool Yule" stamp set. I can tell you that every Christmas card I make this year will positively have a sentiment from this stamp set. It is a must have for Christmas!!!

Happy Birthday

Here are some more cards I made for my cousin. I sent her a card for her birthday last year and she asked me to recreate it for her. Brought back some crafty memories. :-) This is my cousin Melanie and her baby.

The cut is from the Playtime cartridge.

Balloons punched from the Paper Studio Balloon punch.

Twine from The Twinery.

Flower and Brad I think are from Spare Parts.

Pearls on her dress are "Opal" Paper Pen from Viva Decor.

Sentiment is from Crafty Sprouts "Are You Ready to Rock" stamp set.

Gobble 'til You Wobble

The November 2011 Challenge at Simply Crafts Challenge Blog is to make any project of any kind using the Turkey cut on Create a Critter.

I used Flower Soft "Autumn" and twine from The Twinery. The cute little face was made with PKS "Bird Faces and More". The sentiment is from Pink by Designs "Bountiful Blessings" stamp set.

Last Halloween Project

Finally finished my baby grand daughter's layout and it is my last Halloween project for the year.

Owl and pumpkin from October 31st cartridge

Ribbons from Hobby Lobby's Halloween Crafts

Sentiments from Crafty Sprouts "Monster Kisses" stamp set

This is the oldest 2 grandkids (baby was crashed out before trick or treating time). I will get a picture in her costume later for her layout.

This little dragon and sorceress had a lot of fun and came home with candy to last til next Halloween.

The Witch Is In

I have been wanting to make something like this for my office/craft room door for quite a while and finally got it done. I used printable vinyl for Stella the Witch and colored pencils.

She looks exactly like me and I'm leaving it up even after Halloween. LOL

Halloween Week with Crafty Sprouts

Good Morning my fellow crafty spooks. Have you been enjoying Halloween Week so far? Everyone has been making such awesomely cute projects and they are full of Halloweeny inspiration.

I still have 1 more layout to get done before Halloween for the youngest grand daughter.

This one is for my grandson.

I also made another treat container full of my favorite Halloween treats.

You still have the rest of the day to enter the "Candy Goes Here" challenge at Crafty Sprouts.
