Snowmen Melt Your Heart


I just love this sweet digi stamp from Bugaboo Stamps.  The challenge at Aud sentiments is to create a project using a Christmas Sentiment.  I haven't decided yet if I will mail this as a Christmas card or use as a thank you card after the holidays.  I kept the card design simple so it can be mailed easily and a little cheaper.  I hope you join  us at Aud Sentiments in our last challenge of 2017. We are sponsored by Bugaboo Stamps

Christmas Tags


I made this set of Christmas tags as a gift.  They were all cut using my Cricut. The tags on the right and left are gift card holders.  I love hanging these tags on the tree and letting people look for their gifts.
I made these for the Merry Christmas Challenge. Our theme is always Anything Christmas but we do have an optional theme this week of tags.  I hope you join us for the challenge. 




Project Details:
Tag holders: Tags Bags Boxes And More Cricut cartridge cut at 7.25 inches
Ornament tag: Joys of the Season Cricut cartridge cut at 4 inches
Christmas tree: Spellbinders dies
Various sentiment stamps

Christmas Ornament


I don't know about you, but I love to decorate for the holidays.  I usually put up 4-5 large trees. Last year I shocked everyone and didn't put up any of my Christmas trees. It was a very busy time of year with our Oldest son graduating from college two weeks before Christmas and our youngest son turned 21 the day before Christmas.  Needless to say I was focused on other parties and events.  I did decorate the house, just not the trees. 
 Each of my trees is decorated with a different theme.  This year I have decided to put up only one tree and make new ornaments for the tree.  I am hoping I get them done in time.  The theme for this tree will be The Nativity.  Each ornament I make will have some element from the nativity story.  This is the first ornament I have made so far.  I decided my color scheme would be white, tan, gold, blue and rose.  I found some Christmas balls at Hobby Lobby in those colors to add to my tree.
This is also my DT project for Simply Magnolia.  Our theme for this month is CAS or FULLY LOADED.  Somehow I think my card has a CAS look even though I intended it to be Fully loaded. I can't wait to see what you make for this challenge.

Christmas Card


Are you ready for the holidays?  I am getting excited since my Christmas cards are almost done.
I created this card for Addicted to Stamps. Our theme for this challenge is to use two different stamps.  I used two stamps from Magnolia stamps to create this card.  I wanted it to look like Edwin was out cutting down his own tree so I added an additional tree in background and snow with white embossing enamel and also some snow tex to the trees.
I can't wait to see what you create for the challenge.

Reindeer die: Cottage Cutz

Christmas Card


The deadline to mail Christmas cards is fast approaching.  Are you ready?  I am just about finished with my cards.  Of course, there are always a few people I decide to add to my list each year so I may not be as close to done as I hope.
This is November 1st so that means a new challenge at Crafty Hazel Nut's Christmas Extra challenge. The theme is always anything goes and we are sponsored by Bugaboo Stamps.
