Happy Holidays!!

Hello everyone!

       I'm so glad the christmas season is here. Although we don't get as much snow as I would like, this is my absolute favorite time of  the year! I think right now I'm a little burnt out on anything crafty. I made forty christmas cards for our family and friends. I had so much fun creating cards last year that I decided to do it again. I think by the time we get back from visiting family I'll have that creative itch again. Here are some pics of my cards...





 
My inspiration came from some crafty women on youtube and on blogger. Happy Holidays to you and yours!!

Mojomonday#269; PDC 'color splash'

Hello!
  I'm back with my second post this morning! I love the sketch that mojomonday has this week. I have been so busy creating my many Christmas cards, that I almost forgot to play along. I can't beleive today is saturday...where has the week went!?!
 
 For this card I used the MME Christmas paper pad. I made a rosette and punched the edge with Martha Stewart scalloped punch. I used a sizzix flouishes die. I made a handmade flower out of felt. I also used ribbon, a craftsmart sentiment, punched snowflakes, and Studio G glitter glue. The marroon paper is by Recollections.
 
  I am also playing along with The Play Date Cafe. The color splash challenge this week is BLACK and WHITE accented with MARROON. Here is Mojo's sketch...

Good Morning Blogland!

  I know I have been MIA for quite some time now. I just wasn't in the blogging mood but I'm back!! I was scrapbooing and crafting while I was away. I can't believe this year I have to make 40 Christmas cards. Hubby loves my cards and wants me to make half for him to give to his coworkers. I told him no problem not realizing what I had gotten myself into...lol!
  This week over at Jackson's Digital Expressions, their challenge is to make a card using only the colors BLACK, WHITE, and RED. I chose to make an A2 size card with MME Christmas paper pad. I cut some of the paper into a small square to make it look like a gift. I also used a Studio G christmas stamp. I had fun creating this card and I hope you are inspired!

 
 
I also am playing along with iclassygirl.com card sketch #9. Here is the card sketch...
