Dear Santa....

This is one of my favs!  I'm so happy with this image and this card!  I used a number of elements - over at Kenny K's the challenge is blue Christmas!  I think I did it!  I used / made it monochromatic with the exception of the touches of pink!  I glittered her up - embossed the nestie and bling bling bling!!  I even used ribbon, a button and lace!  Fun stuff!!  Enjoy -

Warm 'n Toasty!

This is an All that scraps digi.  I love their digis.  I thought I'd combine it with a couple of Cricut Snowflakes and some snowmen.  I even got the sewing machine out and sewed on the circle.  I love the way she came out - It's combining some of my favs.  The sewing is something I'm trying to embrace and loving it along the way!

Baby It's Cold Outside!!

I just got this cartridge- I so wanted this 3 Birds on Parade!!!  I've watched it for a while - it was up to $100 and I got it $23!! woohoo!!!!  Anyway- on to the card!  The challenge was something warm, a song....so....this is what I came up with - I tried to keep it pretty simple since the background was so busy!!  It's from 3 Birds and DCWV paper - oh - and the snowflakes are from Winter Frolic I believe -pretty much so - a Cricut card!!  Man, my expression is feeling the love!

Momo's Snowman Challenge!!

I decided to take Momo on!!  Hey Momo - I thought- why not do another snowman!!  I'm up to 32 cards for next year - i actually made 175 and only sent out 150.  Woo Hoo!!  Anyway- my snowman is from Winter Frolic - my new winter favorite....I added some DCWV paper, some ribbon and a fiskars around the border punch for the bottom.  Fiskars around the bottom are nice because they are by the inch exactly - so you just measure out an even 3, 4, 5 etc.  not 1 3/8 , etc  Well, a little bling and some Copics for some of the color - only because it made it easier to cut just white - in hind sight- I should've used my imagine - duh!!!  I was cutting another challenge cuts - so that's my story and I'm sticking to it!!  Tee hee!!!
