Tag Challenge

Sheila from She's a Sassy Lady has a Christmas tag challenge on her blog.  This is my entry for the challenge.  The tag is made from Lacy Labels, the deer are from Wildlife Lite, and the background trees are from the SU! Lovely as a Tree set.  I wish I had a slightly larger Merry Christmas stamp, but other than that, I am happy with it and plan to make more for this year's gift giving.  I think this would be a nice background for a masculine card, too.

Bulletin Board for January

I completed this bulletin board for my Sunday School department a couple weeks ago, but forgot to take my camera then. I thought it was a nice winter sky background.

The Bible verse is cut from Printing 101. I love this font for bulletin boards! The bare trees are cut from Heritage, deer are from Wildlife, the pines are from Christmas Noel, and the stars are from Tie the Knot.

Shaker Card

It's Saturday, and that means Sheila has a gypsy tutorial to help us learn a new technique! This week we learned to make a shaker card. Mine has a winter theme.

My card base was cut from Gypsy Wanderings, and so were my brown and red print layers. The winter church and pine trees are from Christmas solutions cartridge, and the deer are from the Wildlife Lite cartridge. It is hard to see, but the church has been colored a light blue with star dust stickles used for the glittering snow.

My shaker pieces are cut with an EK Success star punch from silver metallic paper. I think I am going to go back and add some spots to the fawns, even though they technically do not have their spots by winter. I just think it would be cute! LOL

Christmas Card

This will be my main Christmas card this year. I mass produced them. The card is navy/white, and the navy has flecks of white in it. I printed the sentiment using Annabelle Script--4 to a sheet-- on the computer before cutting it out. The white part was embossed with the Cuttlebug Winter House folder, and the deer silhouette is cut from the Cricut Lite Wildlife cartridge. I may further embellish before sending. I am thinking about adding a couple die cut snowflakes to it, too. Still pondering that one!
