Merry Christmas!

One of our favorite pictures of Garrett. I went outside to take pictures of the decorations for my mother in law and Garrett peaked out just as I snapped the picture. So Cute! Hope everyone has a magical Christmas and a wonderful New Year!

You're Getting Muffin For Christmas

I made these gifts for teachers at school, neighbors, and a few friends for Christmas. It is a microfiber dish towel, a package of muffin mix, and a plastic spoon. Everyone seemed to like them and they were cost effective on my end. I wrapped the paper around the bundle with bakers twine and just glue dotted the rest on. Yummy!!

Vintage Bird Card

I love everything vintage and I wish I had more vintage scrap materials. These papers and embellishments are from Making Memories Vintage Findings. The pink velvet flower is Maya Road.

Easel Card

I scraplifted this from a fellow CTMH'er (Shannon Murdock). The leaves are inked and then embossed. If you do not have colored embossing powder, you can ink your image in whatever color you want. Then, stamp it again with Versamark over the top of your image. Then you can emboss with clear embossing powder. Oh the benefits of clear stamps! The set used is Flourished Blessings from CTMH. The card ended up being 6" x 6". A biggie! I loved this folding technique (easel style) and will definitely be using it again.

Christmas Tags

Here are 4 tags that I made for Christmas presents. Two of them have found a present and the other two are still lonely. I picked up these clear tags because I have been eyeing them for a while. I didn't really know what to do with them but they have been really fun to play with. They are Maya Road Office Sheers. I think the sugarplum one is my fav.

Christmas Card

Love my Unity stamps!! This one is perfect for Christmas cards I think. I also did a handmade flower on it and random stamped the background.

First Day of School Layout

Okay, April, this one is for you. I promise to do better at posting...Layout is of Garrett putting his backpack up on the first day of school. The paper is Pink Paislee's Amber Road. The white flower is from Prima. They are my new favorite and I wish I could buy them in bulk. With this one I rubbed orange ink on it and stuck on some black rhinestons.

On another note, photobucket will not let me copy and paste the html link for my picture anymore. I can't figure it out. I need help!
