LET IT SNOW, LET IT SNOW

Well it has finally snowed here in southern MI and finally looking like Christmas. Here is a couple of pictures that I took with my new Nikon D5000! It is a Christmas present that I got early, so I could figure out how to use it for Christmas. We I can at least take a picture with the new toy. Now I just need to figure out all of settings ans different options. I think I need to take a class. Brigg's is so happy it has snowed!

Birthday Card!

Several of my co-workers Birthdays are in December. So this is for one of them (no, Michele not you!) I based this card on the everything but the kitchen sink current challenge. Pattern paper is from basic grey and cupcake from colorbok. I am happy to be done with Christmas cards!! Nice to use some other of my stash.

Easy bake oven recipe book

I made this recipe book for my niece Anna. I bought her an easy bake oven for Christmas. The oven comes with two mixes and then I bought her 3 other packages. Boy are the pre-made packages expensive (for what they are!) I searched for easy bake oven recipes and found some! So I decided to make a first recipe book to go with her oven. So loves to help cook, so I think she will enjoy. Front cover- all cosmo cricket pattern paper and elements except for the letter.
Inside cover and the printed recipe cards. I copied them from the site: www.kido.org and put the text into corel draw. I changed the font and the format.


This is the back cover.

Kitchen Sink and Lucy Challenge

I do not normally combine challenge cards. I tend to lose focus, so I design one theme at a time. For some reason this kind of fell together for two challenges. One for the everything but the kitchen sink challenge of using tooth picks in a card. The other is for Lucy's challenge of wings and strings. Thanks for looking!

Materials used spellbinders die cuts, buttons, tooth picks, pattern paper, martha stewart string and starving artist stamps.

Holiday Gift Tags

Some holiday gift tags that I made for the hero arts holiday tags challenge. My christmas wrap theme this year is kraft brown and red. So all my cards follow that color theme too! All stamps hero arts.

Cupcake Card

A birthday card created with Basic Grey Nook and Pantry collection. Pattern paper basic grey and stamps basic grey. Stamped with colorbox chalk ink. Added a little glitter to the cupcake top.

Color it Birthday Card

Another card for the caardvarks color it challenge. I was having too much fun this weekend with my pencils!! Both stamps Paula's Best. Pattern paper basic grey!!
