12 Day of Christmas- Day 9 Looking Back

Hi everyone.. Ok.. I just wanted to stop by and post my Day 9 of my 12 day of Christmas cards.
 Again I wanted to show some of my previous work.. This was done back in 2010.. I got a tutorial from 'youtube' showing how to make these adorable little tags.. they were soo cute and easy to make..
 This was my Very First attempt and making a circle ornament card.. I Just Love this sentiment.. and as you can see there was No coloring done for this.. As a matter of fact non of the cards I am showing had No images to color.. Wanted to so a little diversity with my projects.. I got this sentiment from "The Cutting Cafe".. Love Love it..
My last one.. I just used basic card stock and some chipboard from a Paper pack I believe from Echo Park.. I used a cuttle bug folder a beautiful white and silver ribbon and I was done. Very easy but very cute

Happy Scrapping,

12 Day of Christmas- Day 6 Tag Your It

Hi everyone. I am back with Day 6 of my 12 Days of Christmas cards and Projects.. I have a very fun and quick project to share with you.".TAG YOUR IT"

 I wanted to share these cute tags that I made.They where very simple and easy to make.. I used a scrap piece of Kraft card stock. several small stamp images that are part of several different stamp set.
 Here are my basic supply.. with my piece of card stock I was able to cut out 7 tags with my Tag die and stamp from Paper Trey Ink".. (card stock was left over after I cut a 5 X  51/2 card stock so it measured at  3 X 11. I used my Memento due drops in several different colors and some twine also in different colors..I ran my die thru my cuttle bug and stamped and decorated my tags...finished off with my white gel pen, twine, and I was all done..
We all have dies, and tags and little stamps and embellishments that we can use to create creative  and fun tags for all those gifts that we are wrapping.. I hope I have inspired you or at least given you an idea to try something different.


Have a Great and Crafty weekend and I will see you all back here tomorrow.

Happy Scrapping,

12 Days of Christmas- Day 5 Naughty or Nice

Hello everyone.. Happy Friday, I hope that your Friday is going great and that you have a wonderful weekend to look forward to.. I am here with "Day 5 of my 12 days of Christmas and my theme for today is "Naughty or Nice".. looking at my cute little Anya with her sexy little dress and her cute wings. You can decide for your self. :0)))
I am again playing along with another challenge this week from the TGF.. Now I have to say that it was Not planned this way at all. But seeing that I have Not really enjoyed my stamps from the TGF and being that I have quite a few, I thought it was perfect timing to pull out some of my holiday images and get them 'inked' up!!
This card will be entered into the monthly Retro Challenge from The Greeting Farm.. I created a Christmas card with "Non-traditional Christmas colors. I stamped and colored my image with Memento ink and colored with Prisma and OMS.. my DP. is from "Echo Park" This & That.. beautiful set of 6x6 paper.  Twine was from a wining that I had received. and the tag is from Recollection's from Michael's.. I stamped the sentiment from PTI.. directly on to it. and it was perfect.. 

 Here is a close up of Nice.. I just love this stamped and have only colored her up once before.. But I know that she "Will" be coming out more often to play.. for her wings I used my "gold metallic" Prisma Pencils and OMS.. and added some glitter glue on the inside.. for her halo I colored with the same gold metalilic and added my clear sakura gell pen. I then cut her out with my Oval Nesti and popped her up on top of my card with pop dot.

Here is another look at my completed card.

Thank you all for sticking with my. I will be adding much more projects, and others in the next week.. 

Happy Scrapping,

I first had a chance to preview "Holiday Anya" last year as a part of the DT.. she is soo Fabulous in her Holiday Gown. I have several friends to give cards to.. So I decided to color her up in two different color shade.. The use of this sketch was great, because it allowed me to go very simple but festive for my cards.. 
Here  is Anya in Dark skin.. I love her in red she is gorgeous.. I gave her a bit of red hair.. too She is colored with Prisma Pencils and OMS.. my DP is Echo Park "Season Greetings" Ribbon is from Martha Stewart. Added a little doily and sentiment is from PTI
