Advent Calendar

 

Hi everyone, I’m finally getting around to putting on the Advent Calendar I made. This is the top …I cut the three dancing Santa’s off of a bag I had left over  from last Christmas. All of my embellishments are tags and for my handles I used my curly label punch from SU and pinched them together and fastened them on. The numbers are stamped on and scattered about. Hope you like it.

 

This was fun to make and I think the grand kids will enjoy it.

Thankyou for stopping by and have a great week :-)

Birthday Easel Card

Hi everyone, seems like I haven’t been on in forever. Hope everyone is having a great weekend!  This is an easel card with a matchbox holder underneath. I was inspired by Elena of The Red Haired Girl to make this, after I see her fabulous card on  Splitcoaststampers .

The stamps that I used here are from the sets Branch Out and Sincere Salutations.

This is a side view of my card. There is a matchbox drawer on each side and I put a brad in each drawer for a handle to open it.

This is the back view, where you can put your verse or whatever you wish.

I would also like to send Birthday Wishes to Wilma of CraftyGran who’s birthday is today and to my sister in Calgary who has a birthday tomorrow. So if you have a minute stop by and wish Wilma a Happy Birthday.

 

Thankyou for stopping by and happy crafting :-)

Hugs Sandy

The Clean and Simple Challenge to make a card that would be easy and quick to make if your were making a lot of them and to use white and one other color. I combined it with the SCS Wednesday Sketch Challenge. I used SU stamps…..Tree Trimmings and Cute and Curly.

Coffee Shop Flap Card

Hi everyone, this is a card I made for My Grafico Challenge # 19. The DT will be holding 2 challenges a week.......Monday's will be for color/recipe challenges and Wednesday will be for sketch challenges. This week, the Monday Challenge is a color challenge using the color pink for Breast Cancer Awareness month.                                                                                                                                                    The clipart I have used is  Love you a Latte Coffee Elements and the stamp is from SU ....Font of You.  This card opens in two parts and then has a pocket inside to hold your verse or quote.

This is inside the first flap on the card showing Font of you coffee cup. I have put the coffee shop clip art so it can be seen on both sides of the flap.

When you open the 2nd flap you can see the pocket that holds the verse or quote. I  used glitter for steam coming from the cup and all the little hearts are petals from the pink glittered flowers that I used on my card.

Finally here is my verse that goes in the pocket.

Thankyou for stopping by, happy crafting and have a great week :-)

Also to add ribbon, lace or fiber etc. For my basket I used a digi Holiday Christmas Kit I got at My Grafico Store and the basket is from My Timeless Templates. I used green grosgrain ribbon for a border around the cover to match stripes in paper.I also added a little glitter here and there.  Santa liked the basket so much he decided to hang around and get in the picture.
