Christmas Joy

The  Challenge for November at Gecko Galz is "Christmas Joy".

I used two collage sheets, "Christmas Cuties" and "Christmas Icons 2" for my images and made gift tags for Christmas.

Here are all four of them

I cut the tags from George and Basic Shapes Cricut cartridge. I sprayed them with Santa Red  and Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Mist. I used two different stamps sets for the background. Fiskers "Season's Greetings" and G45 Christmas.  I used leftover flowers trims and ribbon and stickers from last year that only had one or two left in the package. I also added Diamond Stickles for some bling. Great way to use up scraps.

Here below are close-ups pictures of each tag.

I will be entering my tags in the Gecko Galz November challenge.  Join in the fun.

Which tag do you like best?  My fav is the first one, but they are all CUTE!

Bye Bye for Now,

Easter Cards

Well Easter is almost here and I have been busy making my cards.  I got a theme going and just changed the cards up alittle, using different papers and colors.  They all have in common the frame I cut on my Cricut using the Wildcard cartridge.  Each card has a different size frame to fit the pictures I used.  The images are from Gekco Galz "Peeps and Hops".  I love these vintage images. I also used my Martha Stewart edge punch for the scalloped edges.

I hand dyed the crinkle ribbon using glimmer mist and Ritz dye.  I think the soft pastel colors are so Spring and go so good with the cards.  Without further ado here they are in all their glory.

For this card I embossed the back ground paper with my Cuttlebug using the Birds and Swirls folder.  I used gold rub on the frame and the embossing.  The flowers are all from Prima.  In the center of this one I used a pearl.  I am entering this one in the following challenges.

For this card I painted the frame with Martha Stewart Pearl paint in Antique Silk.

Here's one in blue.  For this one I painted the frame with  Folk Art Metallic Ice Blue and added some blue pearls. 

I am still making these cards  I  have quite a few to send out so when I am finished I will post the rest.

Hope you enjoyed them.  I think they are so lovely.

Bye, Bye ,for Now
