Merry Christmas snowflake card

Oh my I have been lazy in my posts, I have made over 75 Christmas Cards, and have only posted one or two.  Well here is another
 

Here is a card I made, the inspiration for this card came from Gina K, I used the Paper Trimmings cricut cartridge for the snowflakes, and I used a new Stampin up stampset for the the greeting (I'm sorry I don't remember the name of the stampset and I have put all my Christmas stamps away).

Christmas is coming.

Man Christmas is getting close.  I have a ton of cards to post.  Here is the first of the cards.  I got the idea for this card from Pinterest, and I'm sorry but I don't remember the person who posted the card.  I used my standard Staples cardstock for this card and silver glitter paper from the Dollar Store.

On another note my dog is terribly ill right now and is spending the next 48 hours at the Vet.  Please keep him in your prayers.

Spiderman Gifts

One of the girls in my office has a 5 year old son, he is the cutest little thing.  He happens to love Spiderman, so I decided to make a couple of spidey things for his birthday.

Frosty -- Stamping Up

I realized this evening that I need to have all my Christmas cards done by December 1st, and that is only 30 days,the 12 Christmas cards I've made so far will not be enough.  So I got out my Xmas sets and started making cards. This card comes from an old set that I haven't used in a few years. ziy was easy to do, and only required a bit of coloring.  I used the Frosty stamp set, and colored the hat with basic grey and creamy caramel, I colored the scarf and leaf with cherry cobbler and wild wasabi.
I heat embossed the sentiment.

Happy Halloween

Happy halloween everyone,  I did up 60 bags for the kids tonight,  I only had 20 kids come to the door.  Back when my kids were small I would have about 200 kids to the door.  Oh well, there is lots of extra candy in the house.

I made these boxes for my kids and for the grandchildren.  I cut the boxes from Happy Hauntings, at 10 inches, I then cut the ghost from the same cartridge, I cut it at 3 inches.  The ribbon is from Michaels.

Teddy bear parade gift tags

These tags come from Teddy Bear Parade and Art Philosophy.  I think they are adorable.  I saw similar tags on Pinterest, but changed them up a bit.  Love the way they turned out.

Christmas gift tags

 At the Crop and Create in Cornwall I decided to work on Christmas items.  I usually make all of my own gift tags, cards and some gifts.  Here are two of the gift tags I made, I used my cricut for these.
The cartridges I used are, Winter Frolic for the tree cut at 2.75, Simply charmed for the Stocking cut at 2.75 (hid the face on the stocking),  Scalloped square from Art Philosophy cut at 3.0 inches, and the two layers of squares from Art Philosophy cut at 2.5 and 2.25 inches.  Inspiration for these tags came from Pinterest.
