Christmas Cards and a Gift Card Holder

Hello crafty friends! How is everybody doing this week? I have been busy playing catch up from a 5 day trip to Missouri (from Ohio) for Thanksgiving. On the way home I got to meet 3 of my online crafty friends face to face! That was so much fun! :) I made some cards and a gift card holder to share with you today! They are all quick and easy projects! Here they are...

For this card I used the Joys of the Season Cricut cartridge.I cut the card out at 5 1/4 inches. I added some green glitter paper behind and added stickles on the stocking top and the white border strip. The sentiment is a rub on.

For this card I used the Gingerbread Cricut cartridge. I cut the stocking out at 3 inches. The papers are all by Echo Park from the Very Merry Christmas line.

For this card I used the Word Collage Cricut cartridge. I cut the "collage" out at 4 1/2 inches. I inked the edges with Vinatge Photo distress ink.

For my last project I used the Plantin Schoolbook Cricut cartridge. I cut the little bag out at 4 inches and the stars at 1/4 and 3/4 inches. The stamp is by CTMH.

Just wanted to share a photo of all of my kiddos at Bass Pro Shops in Springfield Missouri. Aren't they sweet? I am so blessed!!


Hope you like my quick projects today! Thanks so much for stopping by! Please be sure to leave me a comment so I know you were here!

A Wonderful Season of Love

Hi all! How's everyone doing today? I was able to get in my craft room for a bit this morning and I made a cute little card to share with you. I used one of our Pinque Peacock corsage/stick pins. Here's my card!
For this card, I used one snowman punch by Ek Success. I used my cutterbee scissors to cut the top hat and turn it into a stocking cap. Here's what the punch looks like.
I cut out 2 snowmen with white glitter cardstock. I cut them out so they faced opposite directions.
Then did my magic to turn one into a snow woman and then colored them with Copics. Just so you know, copics don't work the best on glitter paper. lol
The sentiment stamp is by CTMH, I used a little punch for the red heart. The ribbon was from my stash and the stick pin is one I made for Pinque Peacock.
We will have tons of unique stick pins, flowers, and fabric covered buttons in our store very soon! Here's the blog Pinque Peacock, we'd love to have you become a follower!

I hope you like my card for today! Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving me a comment! I will come back and visit you if I know you were here!

Have a crafty fun day!

Craft Your Passion-GDT-November


Happy Monday crafty friends! Hope your week is getting off to a good start! I am honored to announce that I will be the guest designer for the month of November for the Craft Your Passion Challenge Blog! I want to thank Jenn and her design team for having me! I am very excited to be joining you talented ladies!

This week is Challenge #135 and the theme is HEXAGONS. There are a couple of sponsors for this challenge and the digi stamp that I chose to work with this week is by Stamp Fairy. The cute little image that I worked with is called "Lionel". Love him! Here is my card..
I started with a black cardstock for my card base, then added a piece of burnt orange cardstock. I then stamped the hexagons using a stamp by CTMH. I then added my image that I colored using a variety of Copic markers. I stamped the sentiment "Thank you" and added some polka dot Smash tape. I layered some flowers and added a brad to hold them together and added it on to my card. Last, but not least, I added some bling to finish it off. That's it!

Hope you like my card for today! Please be sure to head over to the Craft Your Passion Challenge Blog and see the other inspiration by the design team and join in this fun challenge!

Enjoy your day!

For Owl You Do

Happy Friday, friends!! The weekend is here! I hope you all have some fun plans for this weekend. I am going to a crop with friends tomorrow..can't wait! I still have to pack so I better make this a short and sweet post so I can get that done! I made a cute little card to share with you using the Happily Ever After Cricut cartridge...

I cut the sweet little owl out at 4 inches and added some Want 2 Scrap gunmetal pearls to her eyes. The doily was white and I inked it up with some pretty pink ink. The twine is by The Twinery. The cute little button is one of ours from Pinque Peacock. I made it to match my card. The ribbon is by 3 Girl JAM. I added some  little pink bling down at the bottom and that's it. I hope you like it!
