Joy, Peace, Love


I made this Kansas University Snowman set from the


Joy, Peace, Love file.







 I cut chipboard 4x6.5, then covered it with red Recollections cardstock.  Then I cut


the Jayhawk background (3.5x 6) out of Collegiate Paper. 


Using my Cinch, I punched holes on the long ends at 3/4 of an inch.


The snowmen bodies were cut from Coredinations white texture cardstock.  


All of the other pieces were cut from Recollections.


I cut small pieces of fleece for the scarves and popped them out.


I used jump rings to bind them all together.

Baking Memories





Baking Memories


I used a combination of the Gingerbread House & Gingerbread Cookies to make this adorable layout.  I changed the colors to match the paper.  I also used the Snow Cap font in Make the Cut for the Title as well as pepermint candy’s are from the MTC gallery.  I found this adorable “Gingerbread town” digital paper line from Lilly Bimble.  I added ribbon and a double pocket for journaling tags.

Snow Globe Shaker card


I made this card using the Snow Globe freebie file.







For the globe and snowman,  I used Recollection cardstock in silver, light blues,


black and brown.  Georgia Pacific white cardstock was used for the snowman.I embossed the background of the globe with the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots embossing folder.  The background of the card is Stampin Up! confetti and was embossed with Sizzix Snowflakes embossing folder.  I used a light blue ink to highlight the snowflakes. For the outside dome, using SCAL, I used the background of the dome then centered the snow background and joined them, which created the “outline” of the dome.  I cut 3 pieces of chipboard and lined those up and glued them to give some depth. I glued the acetate between the chipboard and outline dome.  I put some white seed beads in and glued it all together.

Christmas Bulb Card








For my project today I used ScrappyDew Christmas Bulb Set.





My ornament is cut from the Glitzy Glitter Stack - Brights by DCWV. I love that paper, it cuts like butter and has such a nice shimmer to it. I also used plain white cardstock. 


The embossing folders are by Sizziz - Hello Kitty Spring and their Dots folder. Not quite sure if they refer to it as Dots. 





The mat is a file I made for Mojo Monday’s.  You can download the cutting card files on my blog Here. Look for Card Sketch 265.





I attached some sheer ribbon and hung a Clear Chrystal from it.





Thanks for looking!

"Welcome Winter"



Here is my Desgin Team project for Scrappy Dew.  I used a wood oval sign, painted with white craft paint.  I glued the paper piecings, and added snowflakes with glitter glue, as well as accented the snow drifts with Glossy Accents.  Then I sprayed the whole sign with Perfect Pearls Mist.  I’m so happy with how it turned out.  It can be hung as a picture, or I may add wire or ribbon to hang it.  I used the latest pattern, that can be found here:  “Welcome Winter” http://www.scrappydew.com/store/new-patterns/
