Treat Box


I was surfing some old blogs I had bookmarked and came across this little box. It was just what I needed as I bought a bag of the Ghirardelli chocolate to make into little gifts for my family.
I was able to make 6 little boxes using three 8 1/2 x 11 card stock.
In each box it will hold three of the delectable chocolates. (Which will be hard to part with, but I love to make little gifts to give.)

I am entering this into the Just Buggin' challenge # 15 as well as Practical Scrappers Christmas Challenge.
The stocking is from Doodle Charms Cricut cartridge cut at 1 3/4" and the scallop circle is from Stampin' Up!

Ornament in an Explosion box




I was excited when Judi showed us how to make these during a resent class.
Stamp images are embossed with silver powder on the outside of the box.
The ornament has glitter inside and a rub on placed on the outside.

Tri-Challenge card


I created this card tonight for three individual challenges:
1) Use the Get Sketchy # 18 layout.
2) Followed the color combo at Crafty Catz which was brown, creme, white and gold
3) Daring Cardmakers - use polka dots - (Cuttlebug embossing folder on base and butterfly)

Retro Bonnie - easel card


Ohhh.. I have to tell you I love this cute digi I bought from Alison Spelman
I colored, I think, six of these cuties this weekend as I will be making various "good luck" cards for my daughter and her friends. You see they are in college going into their second year and spring semester and want them to know I care how they are doing. They love it when I send them cards - so as I progress through different challenges on blogs.. you'll see this digi colored differently and in diff LO.

SO without further ado - here is Bonnie (first version) for three challenges - one at Project Tuesday to make an easel card and for the second challenge entry at Doodle Palace to use their sketch and color combo of Chocolate Brown, Aqua Blue, glitter, 1 ribbon, 2 flowers and 3 pattern paper! And Stamp Something with Glitz - the glitz are the awesome rhinestones - just love to ad them here and there.
Whew, I really like how this card came out.

The snowflakes are a pucnh from Martha Stewart.

Thank You


I created this card for two challenges, Sketch 57 at One Stop Craft Challenge and at Daring Card Makers to use Sepia (brown and Creme)
I received a few comments on the "circle" accent piece - it is actually a Spellbinders die that I bought on my recent purchase at Die Cuts R Us.
