First project of 2012

I created this stand up table topper for my centerpiece at dinner today.
I used my Gypsy with the Simply Charmed Cartridge. I enlarged just the width of the champagne bottle. The 2012 was welded from Gypsy font at 2". I cut the shadow and then the font twice once in black patterned paper and once in glittered white card stock. It is attached to the bottle with pop dots.
I duplicated everything so it can be two sided then I put the pieces together using squares I created free hand. It will stand alone but I put a decorated weight from the dollar store in between it.

Three Trees

This is simple yet elegant. The trees were cut from the CTMH Art Philosophy cartridge. Paper is from a stack I got at JoanAnnes. The stamp is from the dollar bin at ACMoore.

Merry Christmas

Card and mat were cut from Art Philosophy and the trees were cut from Winter Frolic. I highlighted the decorations on the tree using stickles. The stamp was from the dollar bin at ACMoore. I misted it with Glimmer Mist.

Please let me know what you think and I hope everyone is enjoying this wonderous season.

tisTheSeason

I can't believe I haven't posted anything in over a month. I have made a few cards since then and some decorations for work but I didn't take the pictures. This card is one of this year's Christmas cards. That's 3 down and twenty or so to go.
The sentiment and bakers twine came from PaperTreyInks.
The ornament is a Sizzix Die.
The paper is from a stack I bought at ACMoore.







There's a lot of glitter on this card including the sentiment that I misted. Eventhough this picture is out of focus it shows all the glitz.

Season of Joy

This card was created for The Clean and Simple Challenge at Cas-ual Fridays blogspot.



The ornament was created on my Sizzix Big Shot and decorated with stickles. The sentiment is from CTMH.



Halloween Treat Bags

My latest project was treat bags for my son's Halloween party. Leave it to me to post after Halloween. LOL
I cut the bags from the CTMH Art Philosophy cartridge in orange and black cardstock I bought at JoAnne's.

The orange bags were decorated with the Jackolantern from Wild Card on one side. The other side was covered with paper from a seasonal stack I purchased at JoAnne's. I added a tag cut from CTMH Art Philosophy cartridge and stamped with a stamp from the $1 bin at JoAnne's.
(Can you tell that ....I LOVE JOANNE'S!)

The black bags were decorated with two different designs of paper from the seasonal stack mentioned above. I decorated one side with the spider web from the Wild card cartridge and the spider from the Wrap It Up cartridge. I used black stickles to make those spiders sparkle. Same tags were used for the other side of the black bags.

Let me know what you think.
