Happy Hauntings boot fun!!

Happy Haunting cards

Good evening crafty friends. I have finally been able to make some cards the last coule of days.  I borrowed my sisters Happy Hauntings cartridge.  I saw a couple cards while surfing the net that had the witches boot decorated and it got me in the mood to make a couple cards, even though it is not Fall yet.lol.  I made these 2 cards using Close To My Heart papers, 3 Girl Jam Ribbon, Bo Bunny Gems, Twine and button, Xyron Create a Sticker, Close to my heart Stamps,and inks.

Then after I made thes cards, I got to thinking they would be cute, as regular dress shoe, evven though the toe tips are a little long and pointy.lol, so here is what I came up with...  

So...what do you think?? does it work.lol

Hope you like my post, have a great night, I am off to make a few more, I already have 3 more boots made up, just need the cards.

Oh and I am looking to get a few more small orders of Close to My Heart to reach a quota, anyone need anything and could help me out?? would appreciate it. reminder the new Idea book comes out next month, woo hoo.  There is a new cartridge called ARTBOOKING,  It looks Fabulous!!! I have ordered it and can not wait to get it.  700 images!!!!!  not only that you get 3 coordinating stamp sets and 3 sheets of coordinating chipboard pieces.  All for $99.00.  It is like getting 3 cartridges in one.  It is a great cartridge if you like making little mini albums as well.

Shawnee and Z'sBirthday Bash Hop

Welcome to the Birthday Bash Blog Hop, January 12!! Today is Zenita aka Scrappinwith’Z’s 50th Birthday and Shawnee’s Birthday is Monday so they decided to throw themselves a Birthday party and invite some of their friends along!! To help celebrate Jen’s Digi Stamps and Scrapbook Stamp Society has graciously gave us some digis to give away to a couple of our commenter’s!! Plus Chriss has some Washi tape for another commenter. So please leave a comment at each of our friend’s blogs for your chance to be a winner. Zenita is our hostess today (since she’s the oldest birthday girl)…lol so we hope you have started at her blog, http://www.scrappinwithz.blogpot.com  If you came from Sher you are on the right track, but if you just came to visit with me please go back and start with our hostess.

First I want to say Happy Birthday to Shawnee and Zenita...Hope your day is wonderful for both of you! Now on to my project: Zenita has a guest speaker on her blog today, and it is all about her experience with cancer, and to bring cancer awareness, so I did my birthday card in pink.

For this card, I cut out a circle card at 5 inches,  from the Cricut Art Philosophy  cartridge.  Than for the top of it I cut out the Tag image on page 35 of the Wrap it Up cartridge.  I cut both the tag black out (in green) and the Tag in Pink.

To decorate the card I used  butterflies from the Art Philospophy cartridge, 3 Girl jam ribbon. pink rhinestones, I chipboard heart that I inked with Tim Holtz Pickled  Raspberries ink, Hearts and a pice of crocheted lace from my stash.  Papers are from Bazzil and K&Co.

On the inside I stamped with Stampin Up happy Birthday stamp and The Pickled Raspberry.

Thanks for stopping by to celebrate with us today and please keep on hopping to see

Magical Keys!!

Santa's Magical Keys

 

Hi everyone, how we doing today, the 6th of November, voting day.  Did you vote??  I did. I was on the road today, most of the day, but when I got back in town, I made sure my husband and I voted.  I will not disclose how I voted, but I will say I hope the one who will do the best for the the country wins.

 

Now on to my project  for today.  I saw this idea on Pinterest, but I designed my own and created my own poem for the back.  I made some tags with which there are magical keys for those children who have NO chimneys for Santa to slide down, or homes that the parents lock the doors at night.  The children just leave the key out side the door and only Santa can use them to get in:)

 

 

For the tags, I cut them out with the Art Philosophy cartridge, and also used Winter Frolic cartridge too.

 

 

Other supplies used were:
Recollection paper
Echo park paper
Alphabets stamp set from Michaels
Tim Holtz keys
assorted ribbons
Bo Bunny gems
Burlap
fabritac
atg gun
liquid Glass
lace with tear drop pearls
Flat back pearls from MB Treasurista
3 Girl Jam ribbon
Knitted glove from local craft store
Stampin Up Merry Christmas stamp

I hope I inspired you to create your own!!!!
