Rudolph is a Giver!

Hi all! It's Tuesday...yay! Okay so that's not so great but at least the weather is good! It is getting so much closer to Christmas so I wanted to share another project for the season and for the Playing in Paradise Challenge. The challenge is to use a household item. I'm not sure that it's really a household item but I used pipe cleaners on this project. It also uses the new Petite Pocket Die and a bunch of punches! And this cute little reindeer is a gift giver...a gift card holder....
enjoy!

Mojo Monday #216

It's almost the weekend! And hockey....of course! Looking forward to our first tournament of the season. And I am very grateful that the weather here is fabulous! Nice for driving.
This week, I am hoping to finish up some gifts for my stamper's clubs to put in their orders. shhh....don't tell them in case I don't get them done! LOL And I have two Card Buffets, and a club next week too...wow another busy week. 
Today I am sharing a card that I made for the Mojo Monday Sketch challenge. The card I made was inspired by Julie Tillman who also made a card for this challenge and there were some elements of her card that I just loved. Anyway, here is the sketch....

 

and here is my card....


Enjoy your Thursday...don't work too hard...and don't forget to check out the Online Extravaganza Sale

Today I am featuring a card that I made for the Playing in Paradise Challenge. The challenge was to create a circular card. My card is an ornament using the Glimmer Paper (of course! I just love this stuff!) and some cork (lots of uses for this too!). The candy canes were cut out using the Stocking Accents die and then decorated with the glimmer paper. And the inspiration for this card was a card that was created by Mary Fish that I fell in love with. I hope you like it!

Merry & Bright Easel

Hello all! It has been a very busy time for me lately. 4 workshops last week, plus hockey and skating. I am grateful that I love what I do  or I would be a mess! LOL I have to admit that it has taken it's toll and I am looking forward to December and some time off. Also some time to re-organize and prep for the new year and some new classes. By the way...there's only 2 more days to take advantage of the Free Big Shot offer... click here to find out more.

Make sure to keep an eye on my blog for a new addition to the main page coming very soon.

Today I am sharing a card that I made for the Playing in Paradise Challenge. The challenge was to create an easel card. I embossed the Merry & Bright ornaments in silver and then colored them with an aqua painter and Cherry Cobbler ink. And I used my favorite paper...Silver Glitter paper.
