Elf Gift Bags











Hello everyone! I have some fun little gift bags to share with you today. These bags are so much fun to make and very simple too! You can find a great tutorial HERE on how to make them. They are perfect for little stocking stuffers! I plan on putting some mini hand sanitizer's and fluffy socks in each bag.
I used the new Peachy Keen stamp set for this project. I stamped and colored/paper pieced the elves and added some stickles to the girls hat. I mounted the girl on an action wobble and the boy I pop dotted....he was to small in the middle to put on an action wobble. I added some trim to the bottom of the bags by cutting around the designs from decorative paper. The tags were hand cut and I stamped the fun sentiments from My Craft Spot's  Mistletoe stamp set. To finish I attached the tags with some Caribbean and Hot Pink Crinkle Ribbon.
I hope you all liked my project and thanks for stopping in. Have a great day!

Thank You



Hello everyone! It's time for a new challenge at My Craft Spot. This week the challenge is "Showing Gratitude" Thank you cards.
I made this pretty card. I love this color combo. I cut the fancy frames from Elegant Edges and the strawberry vine from Rock Princess. I used some crinkle ribbon with a button and twine center at the top and stamped the sentiment curving it around the mat. 
I hope you all will play along and please don't forget to check out what the rest of the DT has created. Have a great day!

Winter Is For The Birds




Hello everyone! Did you all have a nice Thanksgiving? I did...but I ALWAYS eat wayyy to much! LOL! 
I have a card to share with you today that I made using the New Think Snow stamp set and the Lacy Banners Metal Dies from My Craft Spot.
I cut the bird from 3 Birds On Parade and stamped the face with a Peachy Keen face stamp. The background was embossed with the Cuttlebug Snowflakes folder and I cut a strip of paper for the snow. The trees I created by using the Lacy Banners Metal Dies. These make the PERFECT trees! I cut 2 in green and 2 in white. I trimmed the tops off the white and glued them to the tops of the green ones to create the snow. I also added some stickles to the snow and simple strip of brown for the trunks. How cool is THAT?!? To finish I stamped that fun sentiment.
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and thanks for stopping in!

Happy Birthday



Hello everyone! Are you all ready for LOTS of food tomorrow? I know I am! I love Thanksgiving!
I wanted to share the card that I did for Peachy Keen's color challenge this week:
I stamped and colored the bird from the PK-142 Lil' Tweets Bird-day stamp set. The frame is a nestie and I embossed the background with the Cuttlebug Seeing Spots folder. I stamped the sentiment from My Craft Spot's Inside and Out Set #2 arching it around the frame. I also added a strip of red paper that I did a white stitching line on and added some sheer ribbon. I used My Craft Spot's Tiny Tags Dies and stamp set for the tag and attached it with a bow. 
Thanks for stopping by today and have a blessed and wonderful Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving Bears




Hello everyone! It's time for a new challenge at My Craft Spot! This week the challenge is "Thanksgiving". Create a project with a Thanksgiving theme. 
I made an easel card for my project today. These cards are so much fun the way they open and the recipient can display them proudly. 
I cut the bears from Teddy Bear Parade and their clothes. The hats and collars I custom sized in CCR from Paper Doll Dress Up. I added some gold marker for the buckles and trimmed down the boy's outfit for a little more detail. I stamped the sentiment and added a button with twine center to a raffia bow. For the inside and the easel holder part, I used the Tiny Doilies Dies and stamped the sentiment and pumpkin.
I hope you will all play along this week and please don't forget to check out what the rest of the DT has created. Have a great day!

Christmas In The Heart




Hello everyone! Today I have a card to share with you that I made using the New Joy To The World stamp set from My Craft Spot!
I have to admit that I totally scraplifted this card! The design was so pretty and I knew this sentiment would be PERFECT for this card! The original card HERE was a stamped image card. I redid it using my Cricut!
The fence and light pole were cut from Mini Monsters and the birds from Straight From The Nest. I created the Holly branches and berries using punches. The branches were made using a snowflake punch that I cut into 3 sections then glued them onto the fence. For the berries, I used a small hole punch and added some black lines to the tops. The background I stamped the snowflakes using My Craft Spot's New Stampin' Around Christmas stamp set and cut a wavy piece for the snow. To finish I added some twine and jute and stamped the sentiment. 
Thanks for stopping in and have a great day!

Snowman Hugs



Hello everyone! I have a card to share with you today that I did for Peachy Keen's Anything Goes challenge. 
I just got lots of new stamps in the mail and couldn't wait to play with them. The snowman is a new Peachy Keen stamp that I paper pieced and colored with Copic markers. The snowflake is a punch and I heat embossed the sentiment which is from My Craft Spot's NEW Think Snow stamp set. For the snow on the bottom, I ran a strip of white paper through my Xyron sticker maker and covered it with some Sparkly Fluff glitter flock. To finish I added a brad to the center of the snowflake and did a stitching line around the card. 
Thanks for looking and have a great day!
