WISHING YOU HAPPY HOLIDAYS...using christmas noel

hello, 

welcome to flowerdisco's scrap hut

we had a few days of beautiful weather here in the neighborhood and we were able to clean outdoors a bit more. we still had lots of shredded leaves and dirt on the siding, front of the house, landscaping and here and there, :D

anyway, is not shiny yet but it will do until spring, lol. the cold weather is back and now we hibernate a bit, hehe. now, i am concentrating on the kitchen...that needs to be cleaned to a t before the holidays.

i wanted to share another card i had made for the upcoming holidays. this time i had my files on the gypsy and i can tell you what cricut cart i used. i know i couldn't on the previous post.

............Wishing You..........

Happy Holidays

5.5" wide by 4.25" tall

i love that tree. it is #21 on the overlay.

 it is all popped on foam tape and inked just the way i like it. i cut the tree at 2.5 inches tall.

the buttons are chipboard and i believe are from knco and so are the patterned papers.

another view here

i think this card rocks! :D

the card base is from just because cards, the red border is martha's.

i think i will be back with one more project before thanksgiving, but if not

DETAILS....

hello sweet friends. hope each one of you is doing FABULOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

graduation party is getting closer and so are preparations. my husband will be cooking and i will be his assistant along with some other helpers. hehe...that will be some FUN! for a change ;p

Details

4.25 x 5.5"

i used a few cartridges and welded a few images using my gypsy.

the card base is from "just because cards" page #63 image #40. the banner is from "christmas" image #29 and the mat for the sentiment is from is from "cindy loo" and is image #10 manipulated for my purposes--hehe. the font for the word "details" is from "graphically speaking" image #25 using the type feature and welding the letters. 

i had to cut things a few times and tweak them here and there but i am happy with the results.

the butterfly is a chipboard accent from k&co.

those little epoxy flowers i believe they are from some dollar bin or maybe from sticko brand, they are really cute.  -----------TIP: when i use cheap products i do not rely on their adhesive so i always use my adhesives and in this case i used "zip dry".

the patterned paper is from dcwv: the cafe mediterranean matstack.
absolutely stunning colors.

 a bit of messing up trying to add the small pieces to the negative of the word--  :(

i was very pleased to find the butterfly. the colors matched so very nice!
i love when you find a perfect match in different brands.

a side view.

and the inside sentiment compliments the one on the front very well
"DETAILS"
LIFE IS TOO SHORT...LAUGH WHEN YOU CAN!
also................. it is my best piece of advice to you.
the sentiment is from one of "my pink stamper" clear stamps set called:
"everyday sentiments".

i sure hope you enjoy it and it serves as some kind of inspiration.

love you all!

ANOTHER JINGLE BELL ORNAMENT

Same cut, same size.

Different patterned paper, different vintage button, different color.

My Blue Jingle Bell

I will be making two smaller bells, for the left and right side, and the three of them will be used to make a small garland for one of my dear neighbors.

Now, is the time to use all that beautiful bling paper for ornaments.

Go ahead and show me yours. Leave me a comment, add your blog address and I will be randomly picking a winner after Thanksgiving, for a chance to win my last Scrabble Pendant from

Wickedly Mod Pendants.

Thanks for stopping by and good luck!

CRICUT CIRCLE BLOG WEEKLY CHALLENGE

  

Hello my friends!

Thanks for your kind thoughts and for keeping me in your prayers.

I sincerely appreciate it. I will see my neuro-surgeon this Friday for the results. I will let you know.

***

I made today this card for the weekly challenge at the Cricut Circle Blog. These were the requirements:

"Weekly Challenge #6: Feathered Friends Challenge...

The birds are flying south for the winter and we’re heading inside to “feather” our own nests in preparation for the cooler months ahead. This challenge is in honor of the birds! Create a project of your choice using a minimum of 2 different Cricut Cuts. Your project must also include a bird of some kind and stitching (machine stitching, hand stitching, or both)."

This is my card

 The pine tree is from Camp Out cut at 4.5 inches tall.

  

The birds are from A Child's Year. The star from a mini punch I have in my supplies.

The tags/mats are also from A Child's Year and the sentiment from the Christmas Solutions cartridge.

I used my black ink cri-kits to write the sentiment. I then filled the inside with my silver glitter pen. The stitching was done with a paper piercer first and then faux stitched with a red pen.

This is the inside.

The designer patterned papers are from My Mind's Eye, the blue from one of the tags is from Martha Stewart and the red one from American Crafts.

It was very easy to make, perfect for an assembly line and to get your Christmas cards in a blink ;)

(wink-wink)

I have a BIG ANNOUNCEMENT to make about the Action Wobbles we were working with. Yes, the same ones some of you guys will receive samples of :)......... but we can't tell much yet. Stay TUNED! because we are going to have lots of fun.

Love you All!
