His Hers

Hello my crafty friends
Today's project is a pop out card. My thought was a couple that are moving in together type card. The towel image is from A Creative Need. Be sure to stop by and see what the DT has for your inspiration and join the challenge. Be sure to pick up the monthly freebie too. This is my first pop Out card.  I used black and silver glitter papers for mats on the white base of the card. The pattern is from the Silhouette Store ID #63381 . You can never have enough bling, so I added Stickles Diamonds to the heart shape ends on the towel bar. I found the free silhouette couple online. They were a couple holding hands, but as you can see for this project I had to separate them. I used the Silhouette Cameo to  print and cut them. I wish I could get a better picture to show this glittery card.  It looks awesome in person. Thanks for stopping by today and leaving your comments. I love hearing from you.  Have a happy crafty day.

LOL.  The adorable elephant image and sentiment is from Image That Digi Stamps.  Be sure to stop by Artistic Inspirations to enter the challenge and see what our talented DT has for your birthday card inspiration.  I used Spectrum Noir markers to color the image and the Silhouette Cameo to print and cut it.  The balloon embossing folder is from Darice. I used holographic paper to add some bling to the sentiment.  Thanks for stopping by today and leaving your comments.  I appreciate them and find inspiration to create from all of you.

Olaf box

Hello my crafty friends.
Happy New Year. Here is my first project for 2015 for the challenge over at  Decorate to Celebrate.  Be sure to stop by and see what the talented DT has for your winter inspiration.  My grandson just loves Olaf. The gable box is from the Silhouette store Design ID #69749. I used Cuttlebug snowflake embossing folder on the box front and back. I googled Olaf free clipart, there is lots out there.  I printed and cut the image with the Silhouette Cameo. Have I said how much I love my Silhouette Cameo lately? LOL.  I put Olaf on pop dots for a 3D effect.  Thanks for stopping by today and leaving your comments. I love hearing from you. Have a happy crafty day.

Snowbuddies Win

Hello my crafty friends,
I hope you all had a great holiday and happy new year.  I'm working on getting back into a routine for my crafting projects.  I need to re-ink some of my Spectrum Noir markers and organize my other craft supplies. DH says I need to have a yard sale. LOL.  On to my first project for 2015. It is for the challenge over at Pins.  It is the former (Pin)spirational Blog.  Be sure to stop by and see what the talented DT has for your winter blues.  The sponsor for the challenge is Bugaboo Stamps. Enter the challenge for a chance to win some adorable images. Stay tuned and follow along as I make some changes to this blog. I've been having problems loading pictures on blogger lately and a few other problems with it.  If you have any suggestions for any other free friendly blog building sites I'd appreciate it.  Thanks for stopping by today and as always I love reading your comments. Have a happy crafty day.

BUSY BAKING SEASON CREATIONS

Hello my crafty friends,
Here are a couple of pictues of some of my baking creations. Sorry no glue or glitter here. LOL Cupcake mode has stuck again. First up Christmas Wreaths.  Those of you who follow me know I rarely use bows in my crafts. Why you ask? Just take a look at these bows on the cupcakes. LOL.  I used twizzlers cherry string licorice. The only good thing about the one's that didn't make it to the cupcake were eaten. LOL.I used Duncan Hines yellow cake mix and covered with vanilla icing.  Then I used coconut flakes that I colored green with food coloring for the edges of the cupcake.
 What would be Christmas without some Rudolph cupcakes? The icing is Hershey caramel chocolate. The eyes are hard candy that I found at Walmart. I used pretzels for the antlers and M&M's red mint flavored chocolate for his nose.  It was Duncan Hines Devil Food Chocolate cake mix.


Last Challenge for A Song in your HeArt

Hello my crafty friends,
The A Song is closing December 24th. This is my last project for the DT.  My son's birthday is in December and this Piano card worked perfect to fit the song .  It has a gift card and folds flat to fit in an A2 envelop for mailing.  The card is from Casual Whimsy.  I used the Silhouette Cameo to cut it and print the sentiment. I want to thank you all for following me on this creative journey and leaving your lovely comments.   Wishing you and your families a wonderful holiday season and Happy New Year. Have a happy crafty day.
