CCMC131 Challenge

This is a card I made from the challenge over on Connie and Mary's site with the theme being to make a project celebrating snow. This is the first of their challenges I have been able to participate in so I was very excited to do a card for this one.

It's hard to tell in the picture but the Bashful Blue embossing piece was sprayed with Shimmer Mist so it really sparkles.

Happy New Year everyone and

thanks for stopping by my blog!

Christmas cards for grandkids

Ubfortunately I didn't find the time to make my Christmas cards this year but did make a couple for the grandkids. They love getting mail so these are the cards I came up with for them. They are both made with the Action Wobbles. I got the idea to make the cute little Santa over on Sarah's blog so the Santa head wobbles and then added one to the reindeer so he "dances" too.
Here is Cody's card:

And here is McKenzie's card:

Thanks for checking on my blog!!

Cardz TV Christmas In July Challenge #4

Christmas in July Challenge-The Cuttlebug Spot

I made this card for the Christmas in July challenge over on The Cuttlebug Spot site. I am loving all of these Christmas in July challenges because then at least I will have a few of my Christmas cards done before December!
I just love this cute little penguin from the Create-a-Critter cartridge. I used my Gypsy to hide the facial cuts and then used one of my  Peachy Keen stamps for the darling little face. The embossed background is sprayed with Shimmer Mist so it really sparkly although it doesn't show up in the picture as I had hoped. I also added some Ice Crystal Stickles to the snowflake brad.

Thanks for stopping by!!

Christmas in July Challenge # 3- Cardz TV

I was blog hopping yesterday and came across this great site of Mary's on Cardz TV and decided to join in on her Christmas in July challenge. For this challenge we were to use ribbon, buttons, or lace--could be all three or just one. I tried to work all three into my card but just couldn't get it to work so I only have ribbon and button on mine. This was a fun challenge and who can resist getting a jump on making their Christmas cards!!

It doesn't show up in the picture but I used shimmer mist to spray the white embossed background and also the ornament so it is really sparkly!! Gotta love the sparkle!!

Thanks for stopping by and hope everyone has a fantastic week!!!

Emma's Throwback Thursday Challenge- Wild Card Cartridge-Holiday Theme

This week on My Creative Time, Emma's Throwback Thursday Challenge is to use the Wild Card cartridge and create a holiday themed card for your favorite holiday. I was so happy to have this challenge as I had bought this cartridge because I just HAD to have it and I'm ashamed to say, had never used it. Now I have found so many cards I want to make on there!! So thanks Emma for the challenge-it was a fun one!!

I chose to make the Christmas card and envelope. It is hard to see in the picture but I used a gold pen on the "Merry Christmas". You also cannot see the inside of the envelope but I used the red and while polka dot paper for the liner for it.

Have a great weekend! Thanks for stopping by!

Christmas Cards

Unfortunately I didn't get many Christmas cards made to send out this year. But here is a picture of a couple that I did make to send out to a few friends and family. One of my New Year's resolutions for 2010 was to start earlier making my Christmas cards for this year, so while I still had the supplies out from making the red ones, I made 4 of these for next Christmas!!! Now if I can keep making a few each month I should be ahead of the game when December rolls around again! TFL
