Christmas Wishes Tag

 Hello everyone and Happy Friday to all! Today's Tag was designed for Really Reasonable Ribbons Tag Challenge & for Cheery Lynn Designs. I absolutely LOVED creating this tag, as I don't do tags very often, so this was a nice challenge for me. Might just have to create more :) I think these would be nice on a gift. I did use all Cheery Lynn Dies, and Really Reasonable Ribbon!

This tag was pretty simple. I started with
Cheery Lynn Pierced Stacker #2 using the 3 largest sizes. then I used
Cheery Lynn Oval Classic -SM Silver Stacker Layer 8 for my oval, then I layered with
Cherry Lynn B547 Paris Signs 1 cutting it 2 times once in black, and once in white

Poinsettias are cut using:
Cheery Lynn B324 Poinsettia strip 6 piece die

Sentiment was stampd using JustRite Papercrafts Inside and Outside Christmas Sentiments

Bows were done using the Beautiful Ribbon from Really Reasonable Ribbon called "Plaid Ribbon Christmas Traditions"
I used Jute string for the tag to tie to a gift
All layers were popped up using Really Reasonable Ribbons Foam Tabs

I hope you will join us for this super fun challenge! If you would like to join in, please visit us here, cant wait to see your tags!!!
hugs to all,

Super SWEET Candle Shy Bear

 Hello everyone, and Happy Wednesday to all!
Its hard to believe we are already in November, WOW!!! Pretty soon I will be starting to decorate for Christmas as that takes me some time to do. Not sure I will put everything out this year as it takes me days to do.

Anyways for my card I decided to use this DARLING Candle Shy Bear, i think they are absolutely too CUTE, and I LOVED coloring this one. There are tons to choose from in the I Brake For Stamps Store, makes me want them ALL!!!! hehehehehe anyways you can find them here. Have fun!!!

Im trying to get done some Christmas cards so I can hand them out this year. Not sure if I will get too many mailed out. But I do like to give some in person.

 For my Shy Bear, I colored him in copics, isn't he just the sweetest??!!! I love this one, and had fun coloring up the holly and berries too. For the santa cap, I used some stickles on the part that is white to give a little glitz.

Each layer has sewing on it. I did use some Christmas design paper from American Crafts. I also added a big big bow made using Really Reasonable Ribbon Plaid Ribbon, and some gold Bead Berry spray.

My green frame is a Cheery Lynn Die called Pierced Stacker #3 set I also used the circle Pierce tool set found here.

 Hello everyone and Happy Friday to all!
Todays card was created for Club Scrap & The Project Bin! I also created my card for a few challenges, and the main challenge is Splitcoaststampers WT challenge(way to use it challenge) and that was to use Ribbon!!! Most of you know that I LOVE Ribbon and own a TON of it.... hehehe I really don't think I will ever run out of ribbon, as I have way too much of it! :)

So for my card today I used Club Scraps Literature Deluxe Club Kit to create my card. The ribbon you see is also from this kit as well. I chose to use the Cream Card Stock, Brown Card Stock and the design paper you see(all in the kit), I did add sewing in a cream color as well.

The sentiment I used is from The Project Bin. Its from the "Luke 2" stamp set. It was stamped in Frayed Burlap several times to get the desired look.

Flowers were created using Cheery Lynn Tea Rose Small Die. I did add in the Gold glitter paper.

Love , Peace , Joy

 Hello everyone, and Happy Wednesday to all! Today I have a card created for I Brake For Stamps using this beautiful sentiment called "Love ,Peace , Joy" I love how fancy the writing is on this stamp, he script is absolutely gorgeous!

 I stamped my Beautiful sentiment image LOVE PEACE JOY in tim holtz distressed ink Black Soot, using the Mini Misti tool. I can stress enough how easy and fun this makes stamping. I always get a nice dark image this way. I normally have un-mounted rubber, so this makes it so easy to do. Just had to share :)

The papers I used are from the DCWV Tis the Season Stack, this stack is huge and has tons of patterns in it, I have had this for a long time now. the fancy edge layer is a punch around the page, and then the frame at the top and bottom of the sentiment is a cut die piece that I had laying around :) I just cut it in half. I added sewing in pink, pink flowers cut from the same coordinating dp, and then some blue seam binding. Super fun!!!

Flower Die is Small Tea Rose from Cheery Lynn Designs , and Seam Binding is from Really Reasonable Ribbon

Thank you for looking and hope you have a lovely day!
Hugs to all,

Club Scrap Literature Blog Hop

 

 



Hello everyone and welcome to Club Scraps October blog hop featuring the NEW Literature Kit! If you arrived from Deb's Blog then you are in the right place , if not you will want to start from the beginning at Karen(Club Scrap blog)so you don't miss any of the wonderful inspiration from the Club Scrap Artist Team! There is also a list of the entire line up there for you with links :) Have fun & I hope you enjoy todays Hop!

 My project today is a Literature Layout using all the beautiful design papers/Card Stock, Ribbon, and the tag from the sheet of cut aparts. My layout was super simple to make! I will list how to below! All items are from the Literature kit except my OLD beads, and the flower on the bow.

 Instructions:
1 - 12 x 12 cream sheet of card stock
1 - 12 x 12 sheet of shimmer brown card stock cut to 11 3/4" x 11 3/4"
1 - 12 x 12 design paper sheet cut to 11 1/2" x 11 1/2"
Sew the top 2 layers together, then used ATG gun to attach to the cream layer, so you wont see sewing in the back.

Next I figured out my layout, by adding the 2 photo matt layers to the center of my page. I did NOT glue this down, as I just set it there for a reference on where to place my flowers.

Now cutting flowers. I did use cheery Lynns Judy's Blooms. I cut the red card stock, brown shimmer card stock, and the kraft card stock all in flowers for my page. Next I used the flourish #8 for my flourishes. Everything is distressed using tim holtz distress inks in forest moss(flowers) and for the flourishes. The centers have old beads glut on. I also spritzed my page after it was done with a gold glimmer mist.

Sentiment frame- was cut from one of the cut apart sheets and then distressed using vintage photo. above the tag I added a bow created with the Red Ribbon from the Literature Kit. I did add a fancy flower to the center.

 Now we are ready to figure out where to place all the flowers. I normally will lay them out how I think I like them, and then move them around a bit. I also decided to add 3 above the matt for the photo as I felt it balanced the page out some.

I also cut out my flourishes and added them first by gluing them down. Then added my flowers, and lastly came in with filler leaves/and branches. I glued everything down and let dry. Lastly came in with the Gold Glimmer Mist, and spritzed my flowers and some areas on the page. Dabbed it dry with a towel.

 I really enjoyed creating my layout for todays hop!! :) Your next stop on the HOP is Josette's Blog! Have fun!!!

Thank you for stopping by and joining us today!

Heart Shaped Candy Tins

 Hello everyone,
Today's Heart shaped candy tins were made for a Doll Conference & for Really Reasonable Ribbon. I made these last month to take to Montana to give to the peeps at our table, and used all the Beautiful supplies from Really Reasonable Ribbon. LOVE all the new embellishments, and you can find those here. I also used Sweetheart Blossoms, and Ribbons :)

I made 8 Pink tins -
using the Delicate Stitched Pearl Pink Satin Ribbon I also used some tulle, and then 3 different colors of Seam binding. All can be found here at RRR . I also used some of the sweetheart Blossoms and those can be found here. I also used some of Really Reasonable Ribbons NEW Embellishments- Flower Shaped Flatback Pearls , 11mm Pearl Daisy Flower Beads , Resin Flowers with Rhinestones. . I also used some of the new Leaves :)

Blue Tin-
I used the same flowers, and embellishments as listed above, the only difference is, I used blue and white. Now for the Ribbon I chose the Shimmer Satin in Blue Topaz, for my bow.

I really had so much fun making these, and they are all a little different in layout. The Heart shaped tins I have had for years! I picked up a bunch of these at Big Lots and knew one day they would come in handy!

Thank you for looking an have a lovely day!
hugs to all,
