A Gift!!

This was another gift box!!  I'm going to put jewelry and cards, etc in these boxes - i've mass produced them - well 7 or 8 - so I can use them as a gift -  Iused the little Christmas bulb girl - used the outside the box technique using the nestability and a medium size bow/ribbon in red.  The paper is DCWV.  The box top is punched with the Fiskars edge punch.  It adds a little some thing to the box itself!!  Anyway - tomorrow's soccer so not sure I can post - I have lotsa stuff ready - just need to color - so......stay tuned!!  and as always - leave a message - it makes me feel warm and fuzzy!!!

Stampin in White!!

White with a pop of red!!  I hope this qualifies - I also embossed on the mat.  I used my cuttlebug and also my stamp pad to heat emboss!  The santa is from the winter frolic cartridge!!  I made a few of them when I was making some gift boxes!!  I think he's cute.  I hope it qualifies for a pop of white!  Thanks again and I hope you like him and he incents you to get in your craft area and create!!

Ok - now Brown and Orange!!

Somtimes when you're trying to do all these challenges you get a little confused!!  Well, this time I was - if you noticed my last card was orange and brown.  I liked it and was gonna enter it in Ella's Challenge - well, that's a scrap challenge - so.....here we go again....anyway - another scrappage ready for my books - after the holidays- I'm gonna buckle down and scrap - I'm just adding to my prepared blanks!!  getting close to 300 pages ready to go!! 

Gingerbread Man on Steroids!!

Ok - another gingerbread posting - I like him - he's huge.  It's like I blew him up!!!  Well - I colored him - added some glitter glue on his hat - the challenge was brown and orange - so--I ran with it!  You have to have a little red, yellow and green - but just a smidget!!  The layout is a loose interpretation from Tuesday Morning, the colors from Ella's Scrap and the digi is from the Stamping Bazzar - I believe it was a freebie!!  I love Freebies!!  anyway - fun stuff!!  Gotta get some more of my cards out - I don't wanna hold on to but a few!!!

DZ Doodles Sketchin it!!

This was the cutest image - I decided to add a little more gingerbread behind - I tried to stay with a little "untraditional colors".  I think it's fun to change it up!!  I colored the digi with my copics - added the sketch backgrounds - a $1 bin ribbon (of course) and a little sentiment.  I don't think the gingerbread kids are liking it much but -- hey!!  It's the holidays - it's time to eat!!!  Thanks so much for popping in and remember we'll be having a bloghop next week - the 15th - come on back - ya' hear!

Meljens Welcome Winter!!

Well...let's just say Meljens welcomes winter along with a mojo kind of a sketch!!  Get it - 3 challenges rolled into one!!  I love the challenges and I love the challenge of trying to combine them.  I went a little looney with the bling on this one- how many of em - like over a dozen.  As a matter of fact, a bakers dozen!!  I loved the sketch at Mojo Monday - I love to put a bit of a twist on this along with my other challenges.  Thanks - my next challenge goal is gonna be to combine 4!  Hmmmm....can she do it???  Silly, huh?

Critter Bug Challenge!

I've become the Challenge Combo Queen.  This was made for a Critter Sketch and Bugaboo challenge!~!  Critter Sketch had a sketch along with teal and purple.  I used the teal on the mat, the card and her dress.  The purple - everywhere!!  In fact, it's hard to tell but my $1 ribbon from Michaels that says bloom is purple!!  Fun!!  Sometimes I buy ribbon and wonder (realistically) will I ever use this??  Not that that stops me from buying it - I just wonder!
