Welcome back to Monday with 2 Link-ups & a Winner

Well...welcome back to Monday. Oh, how too fast does this day of the week come around... Especially since I took off from work all last week...YAY! Unfortunately I haven't been feeling so well while off, but OH WELL, I sucked it up and enjoyed what time I could while I was off with some crafting.

Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog - Challenge Me Monday - Holiday Card

It's another exciting Challenge Me Monday at FCCB. This week the design team was asked to create some inspiring Holiday Cards.

Here is my card....

I used Winter Frolic to cut the tree limb, the gingerbread people, and the sentiment. The limb is at 4", the sentiment is at 2" , and the gingerbread people are at 1" as a border. I used the Gingerbread cart to cut the house and the candy canes. The candy canes are at 1/2" and the house is at 4". I used my white gel pen to do some stitching.

On the inside I used these super stamps from Sweet N Sassy Stamps . I used recollections ink (which I do not really like - this was my first time stamping with it - but I'm not impressed). The colors were Chestnut and Ruby.


Now, it's your turn to hop over to Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog and link-up your Holiday card. Remember it needs to have at least 1 cricut cut ;0)

Christmas Gift Blog Hop Day 2

Welcome to Day 2 of the Christmas Gift Blog Hop!



If you missed yesterday...scroll on down and check it out. Also, get registered on Day 1 for my blog candy ;0)

 

 

Thanks so much for stopping in today and joining us for the 2 Day Christmas Gift Blog Hop hosted by Becka from Creations with Becka .

You're gonna find lots of creative gifts that you can make for your friends, family, loved ones, co-workers, children's teachers, etc.

If you came from the super talented Dana of Dana's Crafty Corner, then you're in the right place. If you just stopped by please start at the beginning with the crafty Becka at Creations with Becka .

I made this cute potpourri filled luminary. I've made 2 versions....one is with Christmas lights and the other with a flameless candle.

I got all the stuff at the Dollar Tree. Gotta love the Dollar Tree.

Trace the top of the container that you choose on the fabric. Then cut out about 3 to 4" from the traced top. This will give you the lid for your luminary with some extra ruffles.

Start putting in the lights and alternate with the potpourri.

Easy as pie. Now put the fabric on the top and place a rubber band over to secure. Voila!

Here is an alternative version with a flameless candle. You just don't put as much potpourri in the jar. Dress up with some ribbon. The cut is a candy from the Gingerbread cart cut at 3".

Now it's time to get hopping. Please make sure you comment and each blog so you can win Becka's grand prize for the hop.

Christmas Gift Blog Hop

Hey All! Hope your Thanksgiving was AWESOME!

Now...time to start the countdown to Christmas. YAY!

Thanks so much for stopping in today and joining us for the  2 Day Christmas Gift Blog Hop hosted by Becka from Creations with Becka .

You're gonna find lots of creative gifts that you can make for your friends, family, loved ones, co-workers, children's teachers, etc. 

If you came from the super talented Dana of Dana's Crafty Corner,  then you're in the right place.  If you just stopped by please start at the beginning with the crafty Becka at Creations with Becka .

I've made some super cute boxes to put candy in for the girls around the office. I think they will love 'em.

You can always use a piece of candy and since there are several ladies in the office it doesn't break the bank to get all of them a lil box of candy.

The patterned papers are from a DCWV Christmas Glitter Stack. The solid papers are from a Recollections assorted colors pack and some are Wal-mart standard cardstock.

The toboggin is cut at 4" from the Gingerbread cartridge. The picture frames are made from a Martha Stewart punch using the negative and positives.

The stamp is from a My Craft Spot set called 'Tis the Season. I won them from an awesomely talented crafty friend at My 3 E Scrapbooking . The santa clause is from Walmart in Studio G.

The penguin and the trees are cut at 3" from the Winter Frolic cartridge. The stocking is cut at 3" from the Gingerbread cartridge.

Here are some simple pics that show you how easy these boxes go together. I used an Elmer's tape runner and some Zip Dry paper glue.

Start with an 8 x 8" piece of cardstock of whatever paper you want to be the outer portion of the box. Score the paper at 2" all the way around. You can see the four places where you cut into the edges to make the corners.

Now whatever cardstock you want to be the liner of the box cut to be 8 x 8" and score in 2" all the way around. Cut out the 4 corners (4 small, outer squares).

Now flip over the liner paper. To the edges run the tape runner. Here I used some awesome crinkle ribbon from my stash. I have it from My Craft Spot and 3 Girl Jam . Both are great and I love 'em.

Now make the box. Flip the liner back over and place inside the patterned paper . I used some Zip glue to adhere the bottom and the sides.

I hope you like the boxes. I know my friends will. If something isn't real clear on how to make or you'd like some more detailed info...just drop me a comment with your email and I would be happy to walk you through a box.

Now it's time to get hopping. Please make sure you comment and each blog so you can win Becka's grand prize for the hop.

Under the Bus....

Hey Friends. Got a super funny card to share today. Recently there was some drama with a friend and his co-workers. Well, the saying "Getting thrown under the bus..." kept getting said. So I decided to make my friend a card. The card turned out too cute not to share.

All the cuts are from Doodlecharms, except the lil person which is from Paper Doll Dress-Up. I, of course, had to black out my friend's face and the name of where he works (on the bus, hee hee). I stitched it up with my white gel pen and put a couple buttons and ribbon and Voila!

The inside sentiment was done with my computer. I edged it with a Martha Stewart punch.

My friend thought this card was super hilarious and cute.

Thanks for stopping by. Have a GREAT THANKSGIVING!!!

Be Blessed, Beckie
