Make It Sparkle

Hi Crafty Friends,

Challenge #85 is up at Cut It Up Challenge.  Our theme is CHRISTMAS - make it sparkle using sequins.  I resisted sequins for so long and now I love using them.  It's much easier to mail a card with sequins rather than gems and you still get your "bling."

Here's my project:

I used a Darice Snowflake embossing folder and then added snowflakes die cuts from the Jaded Blossom Winter Dies.  I also die cut the tag from JB's Mini Tag Dies 2 and added a sentiment from JB's Christmas Wishes stamp set.  The sequins are from Doodlebug Designs.

This challenge is being sponsored by 
As Cute as a Button.

Be sure to follow the theme and don't forget to use a DIE CUT.

Delightful Monthly Challenge #5


Hello Crafty Friends,
 Happy Thanksgiving to those of you celebrating in the U.S!!!

Today's post is for Delightful Challenges by Digital Delights by Louby Loo.  It is the final challenge of 2015 but our challenges will return on the 4th Thursday of each month in 2016.
Our challenges are always ANYTHING GOES but you must use a stamp, digital or rubber.

I'm using the Holly Tree digital stamp and a sentiment from the Christmas Hugs set.


I love making shaker cards especially using my WRMK Fuse tool - so easy to make flat pockets so the cards are still easy to mail.  I colored the tree with Copic markers and used Jaded Blossom Stitched Circle dies and Scallop Circle dies for the frames.  I found this fun holly confetti at Michael's.

Head on over to the Challenge blog and enter our final challenge of the year.  You'll have until December 17th to enter.  Winners for this challenge will be announced along with our Guest Designer's post on December 31.

Deck the Halls


Hi Crafty Friends,

It's Clear it Out Challenge #99.  The theme for this challenge is CHRISTMAS with the stash item, GLITTER.  Our challenge sponsor is Bugaboo Stamps.  I've used the Elephant and Christmas Tree image which was a freebie.


I used Wink of Stella brush glitter on the ornaments and star.  I also used Stickles Frosted Lace on the stockings and Santa hat.  The green mat was cut out of DCWV glitter card stock.  I also used Jaded Blossom's Stitched Square dies and a sentiment from JB's Watt's Up stamp set. The image was colored with Copic markers.

A Furry Christmas to You!

Hi Crafty Friends,

For my post today at Paper Crafting World, I'm using a cute print n cut file from the PCW store.


The is the Dog w Present n Santa Hat PNC file.
I printed and cut two images so that I could fussy cut one present and pop it up on the base image.  I added yellow Wink of Stella to the ribbon and bow and Puffy sparkly embossing powder to the hat along with a bit of Glossy Accents on the nose.
The sentiment is from Jaded Blossom's Christmas Tweetings which I stamped and heat embossed with white.  I also used Jaded Blossom's Flag Dies and Border Dies, then finished off with a button and twine bow.
Don't forget our November challenge - anything goes with a twist of RED (twist is optional).  You can find the challenge by clicking the badge on my sidebar.

Thanks for stopping by.

Holiday Treats


Hi Crafty Friends,

Today Design Team 2 designers at Digital Delights by Louby Loo are sharing their November Release projects.  This is a special release because not only do we have adorable characters but we also have buildings.  With this release, you could create a complete holiday village.

I've made a holiday treat box with my Baker House on one side and Caroling Slippy on the other.

The treat box was made using the Scallop Caddy Die from Jaded Blossom.  The candy cane is from JB's Christmas Dies.  I've added Doodlebug Designs Sprinkles and some baker twine bows to finish the box.  The images are colored using Copic markers.

Meowy Christmas

Hi Crafty Friends,
It's time for Clear It Out Challenge #98.  The challenge is to use white as your dominant color and anything goes for your stash item.
I've used a cute image from our sponsor, Sami Stamps, called Ornament Kitty.
To create my image frame, I used Jaded Blossom's Stitched Circles dies and Lawn Fawn's Stitched rectangles.  I traced inside the circle with a silver pen and added sequins.  The sentiment is from Jaded Blossom's Meow and Forever stamp set.  I colored with Copic markers and added silver Wink of Stella covered that with clear embossing powder which I heat set.

Apple of My Eye


Hi Crafty Friends, 

Today is my day at Paper Crafting World.

For today's project I made a cute little tag using the
 Bear with Caramel Apple cut file from Paper Crafting World.

The Luggage Tag is a die from Jaded Blossom.  The sentiment is a sticker from my stash.  

I cut the file using my Silhouette.  I added CTMH liquid glass to the caramel and finished the tag with a tule bow and Doodlebug Designs sequins.

Our November challenge will be up soon but if you'd like to work ahead I'll tell you that the theme is
ANYTHING GOES with the twist of USE RED.  Remember, the twist is optional.

Thanks for stopping by today.  I hope my project  motivate you to get (or keep) your craft on!!
