A couple of different challenges...

Happy Sunday everyone!


It's already been a busy day here. Chloe and I headed to Michael's and the grocery store first thing this morning. Then back to watch some Remembrance Day ceremonies on tv. I managed to get a couple cards done and now I'm getting ready to watch the Nascar race. Go JEFF! Chloe has curling right SMACK IN THE MIDDLE of the race....darn....lol....so hopefully I can get back home in time to watch the ending...good thing I have Sirius Satellite radio in my Jeep!


After cleaning up from my SAS last night I sat down and made this box that Lauren shared on her blog. Isn't it cute? Go on over to see her wonderful instructions!


This card I made for Beate's weekend sketch #27. I loved this sketch! I haven't used the coluzzle in a bit so it was nice to dig that out ;) I added a little bit of stickles on the snowflakes and the snowline. Snowman stamp is by Penny Black.
Since I had the supplies out, I figured I'd make another quick card. I'm almost out of this Wintergreen Designer paper and I can't remember if it is one I ordered with the SU! paper deal going on right now.

Time for me to run and tidy up my mess before the green flag is thrown! Sorry I don't have time for any recipes of the cards. If you need to know something...just holler at me!




ETA: I distressed this card with my scissors...just ran the blade along the edge...

He's such a happy little fellow. Makes me smile. Love all of your creations and thanks for the inspiration. Who makes the little snowman stamp? Thank you and happy stamping.

You did a fantabulous job on these-as always! I need to know-what on earth is curling?? I keep seeing you say it and I'm blonde! No clue!

Doris said...

What a de-stressing idea to use just a pair of scissors to distress the edges! Can't wait to make one of your treat holders also...

Oops, I just reread your blog and you did mention that Penny Black makes the snowman stamp. Must have missed that information the first time around:)

Neat box - so is that the gift, or do you put something in there that is a gift....is it like a gift bag, only a box?
