I'm going to a New Year's wedding in Tampa for my good friends Sharon and Adam. I've known Sharon since our sorority days in college and I'm so excited for her, she found her perfect match! I made this card using what I think their wedding colors are based on the invitation.
I wanted to leave the card fairly simple to let the silhouettes speak for themselves. Both the silhouettes and the sentiments are from Waltzing Mouse.

one more tag
I was wrapping presents yesterday and realized I was short a few tags so I had to make a few more at the last minute. I bought this die and stamp set a couple weeks ago and haven't used it yet and realized- oh no, this is my last chance until next year! Gotta use it now! I'm in love with this set so I'm definitely looking forward to using it more next year!
Well happy holidays everyone! I hope you all enjoy your family time!

Twisted Sketches- Design Team
So, it's official! I'll be on the Twisted Sketches design team for another term! The twist for this sketch was "number" and I was in full blown Christmas mode when the call came out again so of course I had to tie in a Christmas theme! Once again, I've used the music note paper which I'm obsessed with! I look forward to another great term with my "twisted sisters" and I hope you play along!

Poinsettia tags- Just Us Girls Challenge
So I have to say I love these tags! I made them for this week's Just Us Girls Color Challenge. I actually made some that were very similar for the pop up shop but never posted them so I made some more. I used watercolor paper and tim holtz ink stains to color the paper red and green and then stamped it with these poinsettia and leave stamps. Then I cut them out and put them on the tags. For the tags I used Tim Holtz ink to age the paper and sprayed white ink on them and added the to: from: These ornaments I propped them on are my new favorites! Their old vintage style glass ornaments.

cards for the Right At Home card class
So I take a monthly card class at my LSS, Right at Home Scrapbooking. We get fun new kits each month to take home and create with using various card magazines. Here are the cards I made for this month...
This is just a nice clean and simple card. I did try adding some of the crackle goop to the hearts too but you can really see it here (that product was part of the kit) |
pine cone tags
Here are some fun holiday tags I made. I just got this die combo from Tim Holtz and it makes pine cones out of paper! Amazing! It's pretty similar to the dies you see to make flowers but the technique is a little different. I decided to add some glitter stickles on there to look like glittery snow but husband was like- I hate glitter as snow, it doesn't look like snow at all. Oh well, let's hope our gift recipients feel a little differently! Haha!
Engagement!
My sister-in-law just got engaged this past weekend! We were at breakfast with her and her boyfriend and after we left they went and got a little charlie brown type Christmas tree, brought it back to their place, and were decorating with Christmas music and enjoying the holiday season- and he popped the question! I couldn't be more excited for her!
