Here's my classic Christmas creation:

I used the Hot Chocolate Die set along with paper from It's Christmas Time.  I made the mug super sparkly with Cool Diamond Silk Microfine Glitter.  LoVe that glitter.  Thanks for stopping by today.

Mr & Mrs

My mom went to a wedding reception recently and needed a card.  I didn't really have anything so I busted out some Susan's Garden flowers from Elizabeth Craft Designs.  I paired them with the Wedding Sentiments clear stamps to create this:

LoVe.  The patterned paper is from the Rainbow Bark 6x6 paper pack. The pink flowers are from Flowering Trees of Spring.  The white flower is a Shasta Daisy.  I embellished it with Trio of Leaves and Berry Spray.  The "window" is cut with the Frame It - Stitched Ovals and is framed with the Dashing Rectangles.  The sentiment is cut with a Dashing Circle Die.

My whole supplies list is below.  Thank you for stopping by today!

Sparkly Igloo

I'm seriously digging the new(ish) release from Joset at Elizabeth Craft Designs.  Like the very sweet Polar Bear and Igloo Dies!  Here's what I made:

The igloo background is done with Cool Diamond Silk Microfine Glitter, so it's super sparkly.  The polar bear is so fun to put together.  He is edged with the C1 Copic and is super happy with his lil pile of fish!

Foxy Fun

Today, I've got a pretty card I made for a friend up on the Dare 2B Artzy Blog.  Here's what I made using the NEW Foxy Greetings Stamps and the Fall Harvest Collection Paper Pack.

The leaves were cut with Dare 2B Artzy Dies from the Foxy Greetings collection and are from the paper.  So cool.  Below is my full supplies list.  Thanks for stopping by today!

New Ornaments

I've got a couple cards and a tutorial over on the Elizabeth Craft Designs blog today.  I used the new Winter Ornaments dies along with the Unconventional Christmas 12 x 12 paper to create these:

The full instructions for how I created these are on the ECD blog....but suffice it to say that they are pretty simple and easy.  It's a great design for making multiples!  My full supplies list is below.

Fun Lil Characters

Omigosh, I'm just in LOVE with the Unconventional Christmas line from ModaScrap!  The paper is available at Elizabeth Craft Designs.  I purchased the stamps and dies from them at a Scrapbook Expo, but they are also available online from the ModaScrap website.  Here's what I created:

Aren't they just the cutest lil characters?  I colored the guy with BG72, BG75, E000, E33, and E41.  The girl is colored with Y23, E000, G43, and E41.  That adorable penguin is colored with C5 and YR14.  I used the Stitched Hexagon die to frame them and added the Snowflake Border die too.  The sentiment is from the Classic Christmas Sentiments.
