ATSM - Challenge #323

Hello....Happy New Year! I am so excited to be on Kylie's team over at ATSM and the theme for the first Challenge #323 of the year is Holiday and since I still had Christmas supplies out why not get a bit of a head start on this year. I love anything glitter and sparkle and pulled out some fun glitter paper from Michael's. I got to play with this fabulous die from Hero Arts that I ordered for a sweet friend (thanks Monika), it is so much fun and I love the look it creates. 

The 12 Kits of Occasions - Christmas

Hello....can you believe that tomorrow is December 1st!!! Wow this year just flew by. It's time for our 12 Kits of Occasions November post and the amazing and talented Jessica from Paper Parade is our incredible hostess. When her kit emptied out on my craft desk I went crazy, so many sweet and festive critters and I started coloring the same day they arrived. I had so much fun playing with everything, well just about everything, the powder blue plaid patterned paper is so amazing, that I only allowed myself to use one piece, saving the rest and those sweet yeti's for another day.  Be sure to head over to our group post for a peek at everyone's festive creations. 

Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by...enjoy your day!

 Love this amazing scalloped box from Lawn Fawn, once I colored all these sweet critters I remembered I had the die and thought want a fabulous Christmas card it would make. My daughter and already claimed this for her card stash.

 Love this sweet baking bear, so in love with this set!

I know it's hard to see but the entire snow globe is covered with lots of clear glitter.

The sentiment I used is my favorite line from the movie Elf, love that movie and watch it all year long.

Waltzingmouse Pajama Party

It has been way too long time since I have pulled out my Waltzingmouse stamps, and with their pajama party, it was the perfect opportunity. They have 4 challenges going on and I have a card/tag for each one.

My first card is for the Doodle Do challenge, where you do some doodling on your lettering. I used my NBUS set from WM, Tis the Season, stamped it in red and pulled out a silver pen for a bit of bling. 

My second card is Too Cute to Spook, you pull out stamps to make a kid friendly Halloween card. In my opinion, WM makes some of the best Halloween stamps out there, so many fun and creepy images to play with. 

The third challenge was to pull out some "old pajama's" for Christmas. I decided to make a tag for this one and used Santa's Coming To Town stamps. I love the Santa head image. 

Their final challenge is Bedtime Story and using a sketch and I decided to balance things out, I have two Christmas projects and needed one more Halloween, so my final card is using the sketch for a Halloween card. 

All 3 of my cards are made using some NBUS, stamps on the first 2 cards and paper on the final card, so I will entering these in Darnell's challenge, you can find the link here to play along. 

PTI October 2013 Blog Hop

Once again it is time for the Papertrey Ink Blog Hop and this month the theme is tags.  I don't typically use gift tags on my Christmas gifts but thought it would be fun to play along anyway.  I has planned on making a tag or two and then was informed by a sweet friend that it was a set of 5.  So I got to work and got them made with a few hours to spare, nothing fancy by any means but now I have 5 tags to use, so it is all good!  Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by to peek at my blog...have a fabulous weekend!

The 12 Kits of Occasions - August Edition

This month's hostess is the incredibly talented Amy from Stamp-n-Paradise.  What a fabulous kit too...it is always so much fun to receive a kit with goodies that you don't already own.  I have 3 cards to share with you today, to be honest, my plan was to make several more cards and a notebook cover but I had a sweet little house guest named Rachel, she is 10 years old and she loves to craft and I usually let her use whatever is in my craft room but by the time I realized that I left my kit laying out on my desk (hoping that I would have the kit with the "self assembling" cards in it), she had already gone to town! So I did my best with what she left behind for me to use, you gotta love little kids, especially those that love to craft.  

I love that we get several kits with Christmas card ingredients in them, I have plenty of cards to use to send out again this year, so fun to be so far ahead of the game! This is our second month using our new Blog "The 12 Kits of Occasions", there you will find the list of kit ingredients and links to each ladies blog.  Be sure to leave a comment on the group blog page, there is a giveaway this month.  Thank you so much for stopping by to peek at my cards....have a fabulous weekend!
