runnuing it through the cuttlebug...really like the effect!

Project 365 #110 - reindeer card

Another card made with that paper kit...yikes!

Project 365 #109 - tree card

This one started out so boring, so I added some string, then some

bling, and somehow bling makes everything better!

This is the second wave of red and green from that same kit...can't believe how far it went! They are kind of simple, but still effective.

Project 365 # 107 - red and green

My first group of red and green cards...made them all from a paper pack I had lying around last year that I forgot about! Made 15 cards out of 5 pieces of paper and some embellishments....

Project 365 #103 - snowman cards

These are a few snowman cards I made while I was at croptoberfest with my new nestabilities and my new snowman stamp...my mom liked the stamp too...she used it for her tag template too...

Project 365 #101 - snowman tag kits

okay...i totally stole this idea from a paper crafts magazine, but i thought it was so cute and easy to do that i would use this as one of my tags in the tag kits for next thursday night....so now i am up to two cards and a tag...wahooo...that means this weekend's croptober fest will be all for me and i have no pressure to complete anything...that is sooo the best way to go to an all day crop! With no expectations! hopefully i will get to have a little fun and complete all of my christmas cards at the same time. i am entering this tag in the opus gluei challenge cuz it has wood on it, even though it wasn't my idea...but i still had to go outside and rip all the branches off of my little shrub to complete it so i think it qualifies...you can find the challenge here: http://opus-gluei.blogspot.com/ hope everyone coming next thursday thinks they are just as cute as i do!

Project 365 #99 - second card kit

for those of you doing the card night thing, this is my second kit(I made 18 kits this time, cuz I think I may just need a few extras for myself, and I like the way this one turned out). I am completely hooked on the easel card...they are so fun and easyt..a little less traditional. I like the pink and green combo for Christmas....I am going to enter it in the following challenge: Order of the Opus Gluei...cuz they are my favorite challenge blog: this time they have a sketch....here is where you can find them:http://opus-gluei.blogspot.com/ hope you can all make it...should be lots of fun...now off to make some tags!

Project 365 #97 - hope your day shines

Whipped up this little card this morning. Thought it met the qualifications for the following challenges: Opus Gluei : easel card...this one is all little more fall like :) :http://opus-gluei.blogspot.com/ and Mission to Create #25v: envelope, beige or cream, doilies, stipes and dots, something clear - crystal, hole or transparency: I have 4 out of the 5 and I am putting the card in an envelope, so that may count as 5 out of 5? probably not, but you can find the link here: http://www.missiontocreate.blogspot.com/

Project 365 # 96 - a start of the Christmas cards!

Okay, so we woke up to frost this morning...it is 9:33 and the temperature is still at 0 c ...not a good sign for a short and warm winter...it is frost before birthday in this part of the world and I don't like the looks of that one bit...but that is the trigger to start getting some Christmas cards done! These ones are a little gaudy...but the technique was so cool! I used the super tacky double sided tape and microbeaded all over the top of the stamped area...the front of the card feels so cool and it is kind of sparkly, but you can still clearly see the stamped image....I think I totally like the brown front best, but everyone who has seen them has had mixed reviews on what colour ink they like best under the beads...the paper wasn't a great match, but it is all that I had with me...hadn't planned on making Christmas cards, but had just bought all the supplies to do this technique...sooo much fun....now to come up with something for card making night....ooohhh have to get the creative wheels churning...it's only a month away!

Project 365 - #94 - Linette's trip card

This is a cute little easel card i made quickly for the piano teacher...she ran off to Germany for a few weeks to visit relatives...nothing spectacular, but done none the less....time to get back on the crafting boat now that school is back in session! I am entering it in the following challenges: Order of the Opus Gluei: easel into fall: not really fall like...well i would wear a sweater with those stripes in the fall, but it is and easel card :) : http://opus-gluei.blogspot.com/

Project 365 # 92 - paper flowers

okay...it has been a while since I have done much paper stuff around here, but we have had some weeks of gorgeous, hot and humid, sunny weather and that just hasn't been the norm the last few summers, so I have been out at the lake visiting the girls and just plain lazy when it has come to scrapping...but in this neck of the woods, winter comes all too quickly....so I had to get out while I could. But on the way to the lake last week, I found my new addiction....the cuttlebug dies to make these quilled paper flowers...yup...and I made 24 of them over the last couple of days...I am completely addicted to them! I added magnets to the back and I think they are super cute! I cut up all of my scrap paper and can't wait to make more.....they are just so much fun...and time consuming...24 took me two whole evenings...but think of how cute the fridge could look with these magnets holding up pictures...I am entering in the following challenge: http://opus-gluei.blogspot.com/

thanks for looking...hope your summer is great so far! going to the lake again tonight...flowers will have to wait till sunday....
