Holly Jolly

Hello everyone! Please forgive the look of my blog. It is temporarily under construction. The card I have for you today was made using the Artiste and Art Philosophy cartridges. I used some old tags from my stash for the stars. The gingerbread man and the sentiments outside and in are from Stampin' Up. My Dad is back in the hospital so I will make this short and sweet. We will most likely be spending another Christmas there with him. This will be my last post for the year and I thank each and every one of you for sticking with me this long. As always "Thanks for peeking!" I just wanted to wish all of you a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Brag book

Hey Ya'll! Just a quick share today to show you  a brag book my upline Shirley Ross showed me how to make using Flip Flaps which can be purchased from Close To My Heart. The white frame are leftover pieces from another project using the Artiste Cartridge (innies), and the small vellum flowers were made with a punch I recently purchased. This came together pretty quickly, but now I have to buy some more Flip Flaps to finish off the book! It's always somethin' isn't it? Just another excuse to purchase more "STUFF"!! Anyway I hope you enjoy, and thanks for peeking!

The Best

Hello all! Just a quick card today. I've been trying to use supplies that I have before I buy new(uh huh..RIGHT!) and I came up with this cute "friendly thank you card" using some Close To My Heart products that I purchased last year. This particular paper packet is also featured in the new Spring/Summer idea book. I used some of the chipboard pieces from the Artiste collection along with its cordinating stamp to make the center portion of the "blue ribbon", then used all of the zip strip that came off the paper as my "ribbons". The other ribbon is from my stash. I hope everyone is having a crafty weekend and thanks for looking!
