One Last Christmas Card to Share

This is the last one I made using the scraps of paper that I have. Making these cards really didn't dent the scrap paper stack any so I am going to have to find other challenge for myself to use up the scraps before I buy any more paper.

Here it is.

This is the portrait style easel card. I may make a few more but at this time I am busy trying to catch up my December Daily album.

Hope you have a great day!!!

Christmas Cards

I have challenged myself to use scraps to make my Christmas  cards. I thought to myself if I want to get new papers then I need to use the scraps that I have now. Well when it comes to cards I get stumped on what to do. So I started searching Youtube for unique ideas on cards and make some for my family here in town.

I came across a few Youtube videos that had tutorials for easel cards. I got started making them and I don't think I stopped for a while. But this is one that I came up with.


Sorry for the blurriness I still have not found my camera battery charger.


I used scrap papers and Christmas stickers along with some rubber stamps and followed a number of tutorials on Youtube to assemble the card.

Hope you have a great day!!!

Catching Up....

I have been really busy with sick kids and dentist appointments, Christmas shopping and everything else that goes along with the holidays.

I am catching up on my December Daily and I am printing photos as we speak. I have all my journaling done for the last 10 days and now I am getting the photos done after I am done with that and a little more embellishing I am going to do a video of a flip through of the December Daily.

I am going to try and make some more blog post today as tomorrow I have to take my daughter back to the dentist because she grinds her teeth at night and broke one. I have a few more Christmas projects that I have been working on mostly tags but I will have pictures up later or on a different post. I am also working on Christmas cards.

Well that's all I have for today, hope everyone enjoys there day!!!

Another Daybook!!!

I have done another Daybook!!!

This one is using the DCWV Tattered Time paper stack and it is just using left over scraps from an album that I made a while back.

This one has more pages in it then the last one did.

I cut some of the corners with a ticket corner punch and just rounded the others.

I have no clue what I am going to put in it at this point I just love making them!!

So without further ado here is some photos:

 Inside Pages

Well that is all I have to share today! Time to make some Christmas cards!!

Have a great day and Thanks for stopping by!!!

December Tag!

OK, so as I have been going through things in my scraproom I came across so really cool glitter. The ideas just started reeling in my head. It is that time of year where there is snow and the beautiful holidays. I have seen several blogs and YouTube videos, etc that people make 12 Days of Tags for Christmas, well I'm not making the 12 tags at this point but I did decide to make a tag. I was also looking through my clear stamps and came across several images that I have never used before. I have every color on ink imaginable and I need to use it so taking a few stamps I have never used and the inks I hardly use this is what I came up with:

Front

Back

It is just something simple and pretty. I don't know the name of the stamps that I used but the inks are Real Red form Stampin' Up!, Green from Stampabilites, and Brown from Stampabilities. Various fibers and Stazon Ink in black. I stamped snow flake images as the background and layered 2 layers of a glitter that was large flakes on the bottom half of the tag. I then stamped the other images and cut them out and layered them on top of the glitter.

For the back stamped single snowflakes in various stops for the background. Then I took a say from a DCWV Vellum Quote Stack of Christmas and glued only the edges down with ZIG 2-way glue pen. It worked very well and you don't see the glue under the velum.

I think that the next thing on my list of small things to make is Christmas cards that I am going to hand out.

Well that is all for today! Have a great day and Thanks for stopping by!!!!
