It's been a Joy making these Angel cards and I can't wait to have the ladies join in.

My deepest sympathies goes out to all the family's, Children and people that were involved in that horrendous tragedy and pray that these little Angels will somehow comfort them.

I was soooo excited to win this machine that when I received their congratulations email, I jumped for Joy and called my niece, Lisa right away to tell her of the good news. We had been talking about this machine months before and when it appeared on HSN, I called and left a message on Lisa's friends phone. I said this is a wonderful machine and you need to get the whole bundle. Well, her friend Jan, did just that and gave it to Lisa. Lisa knew how much I wanted this machine and found the FaveCraft site Sweepstakes. The last day of the contest, she called me I think 10 times for me to enter the contest. She finally reached me at night. I remember saying, that I wasn't really comfortable sharing so much infor on any site, but reluctantly I filled out the form while she was still on the phone. She really insisted!! I sooo glad she did!

Well, the next morning I received an email congratulating me. I was still a little skeptical, so I emailed them from their site also and they confirmed that Yes, I had won and it would be in the mail soon. I kept checking my porch each day and after a few days, to my surprise it arrived. 

WOW! 

That box is Heavy, were the first words out of my mouth, then Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

I opened it up with excitement and pulled out the Fuse machine. I kept saying WoW, WoW! This is what I had talked about and wished I had and now my dream came true. What a wonderful Present and just in time for Christmas. I am so grateful and thankful to Lisa for insisting that I fill out that form and to FaveCraft for picking little ole me!

I haven't had too much time to really use it yet, but I will be sharing with you all soon. Here are a few samples Lisa sent me that she made on her Fiskars Fuse machine.

I will use this one alot!!!!!

Yes, time for the New Year soon!

 Soooo cute! I love the deep embossing and the inking. This machine does cutting, inking and embossing all in one turn of the handle. I can't wait to try it out!

 

I love this one!

 All my creations are made with LOVE!

That's it for this year my friends! I have enjoyed creating and sharing with each and everyone of you. I wish you all good Health, Happiness and Success into the New Year. 

Keep watching as the New Year rolls in on January 1 2013!

I have lots of adorable creations to share with you.

Have a Happy New Year!

Hugs!

Christmas SNOW GLOBE Shaped Shaker Card

Hello again my crafty friends!

Surprise Surprise!!!

I couldn't wait to share my adorable Snow Globe Shaker card with you today. 

This is the cutting file card that I used from "The Cutting Edge"!

You can get this file below

http://thecuttingcafe.typepad.com/the_cutting_cafe/2011/12/snow-globe-shaped-cardtemplate-cutting-file.html 

I'll be designing for Regina in January 2013!!

I just love how this card turned out!

 

I was inspired by Mary's Snow Globe Shaker Card over at svgcuts.com

You can get this file Free with purchase

http://svgcuts.com/blog/2012/12/14/winters-cards-svg-free-gift/

 

I first cut a base card out in white card stock using my Sizzix Eclips cutting machine. I then cut the trees from the eCal library and did a silhouette of each one but selected rhinestones to the light green tree on the far left. For the snow hill I just cut a few swirls and inked with Tim Holtz distressed inks. I glued the trees and hill to the smaller globe insert and glued it to the card base. 

Then I separated the middle part of the face of the globe in eCal to cut only the outer circle. I made six cuts and glued them together to form the top piece and added a white textured paper on top and clear plastic. I did this also on the two white strips on the base of the globe but only used two layers of paper. 

I hope your still following me...lol 

Please email me if you have any questions and I will be happy to answer.

 

After I finished gluing them all together I put them aside and added about a tsp of silver white beads to the tree section. I then glued the outer circle with the plastic over the trees and beads. I finished off the bottom with a red piece of foil paper that I traced and added the white pieces to the base and topped it off with a Christmas bow.

That's my shaker card for today!

Hey, it really Shakes! LOL So Cool!

Close up of the Rhinestone design that I made in eCal software. 

I stamped a snowman and sentiment for the inside of the card. I bought the snowman

stamp at Michaels dollar bin and the warm wished is from Fiskars 35 ensemble.

 My Newest stamp is from my Favorite....Unity Stamps called "Dutch Mustard Soup" set. You have to see all the other stamps in this set!!  

You can get this stamp set  here... http://unitystampco.com/shop/dutch-mustard-soup/

I bought this set of stamps when they had the half off sale plus Free Shipping and I can't begin to tell you how perfect they all are. Super strong, etched red rubber and they work on my acrylic blocks. 

I LOVE THEM!!!

I just noticed that I put my tag on upside down....LOL Go figure!

Would you believe that I wanted it to say OH, OH OH...hehe

And these pictures were soooo  clear, that I decided not to retake them.

Sorry you will have to tilt your head a little, but you get the idea.
Too funny!

I hope I gave you a good laugh!!
HO HO HO

  The top cover comes off so you can add some delicious candies or  fresh baked goodies.
I just love how this box went together, so simple and fast.
I used  burgundy textured paper from Joann's. It's just the right weight for boxes.
 I used clear plastic page protectors for the backside of the candy cane and glued it on.
For the white candy came I glued two cut out together and then glued them to the front.
This would make a really quick and easy gift box for the Holidays.

Beautiful gift box!

That's it for today my Dear friends!

Christmas Classic Gift Boxes

Hello my sweet friends!

Today I finished up these Gable boxes and wanted to share them with you. 

These adorable four piece boxes are so easy and quick to assemble!

This box is from Mary's Classic Gift Boxes svg kit

http://svgcuts.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=29&products_id=314

 I used accent paper from "Old World Winter" stack. I just love their paper!

First, I cut out the base for the box in a solid colored heavy card stock paper. I then glued the accent pieces on and glued all the sides together. That's it!

You can decorate this super cool box for any occasion, depending on what papers you use. 

Great gift boxes for that special gift and they have a lot of room for a nice sized gift.

Great boxes!

That's it for today!

Have a great Friday and remember to keep watching for more exciting creations coming your way.

Robbie The 3D Christmas Penguin

Hello my crafty friends!

It's that time again for me to share my creation "Robbie The Penguin" with you!

He was inspired by a wonderful and creative crafter named Debra Vineyard, that I had

the pleasure of meeting over on Mary & Leo Facebook page. She made such an 

amazing little Penguin that you just want to hug him.

Take a peek at her Adorable Penguin and my inspiration on her blog

 http://schnoodlebug.blogspot.com/2012/11/mr-penguin-his-christmas-tree.html

You will see Robbie in the line up.

Here's one of the first pictures that I took of Robbie.

 Here he is without his feet :)
Doesn't he look just grand sitting among the tree branches?

Hey, he's got FEET!
Added Snowflakes to his hat!

And, so began my journey!

I had been thinking of entering Mary & Leo's Christmas Challenge awhile back but 

was so busy with classes and orders that I didn't have the time. 

So when Saturday came, and I remembered Debra's Cute Penguin, I thought, I would create him using all the requird kits for the Challenge.

Boy, was he a Challenge!!

It would have been easier to use Debra's recipe! LOL

Thanks Debra for the Inspiration!

I changed his neck ribbon to plain red and left off the joy tag because I didn't ink it right. I also added the red striped ribbon to the rim of his hat and plain red to the top. I put dotted ribbon around his neck instead of the gingham. He had many changes...lol before the finished picture was taken for the Challenge.

I started creating Robbie on Saturday morning after I dl the Cuddly Friends kit from Mary's svgcuts site and had all my files in order.

It took me All Day to figure out how to get him just right. And, I almost  didn't finish him because I was having trouble getting his front body to cooperate and line up properly. I remember Mary saying, just tell the paper where you want it to go....but it didn't want to go...lol

Sooo...with much work, the pieces finally came together. Except, I put glue over the whole accent panels on each side of his head and it didn't look round.  I added another accent piece and this time only glued the top and bottom.

I'm so happy with the way Robbie the Penguin turned out!

Oh, the story on why I picked the name Robbie!

Debra was telling Grace, over on Mary & Leos facebook page that her Eclips machine was talking to her. 

Here's Debra's quote!

  "Grace, you will find the Eclips talking to you! Yesterday mine was saying "Hey Rob, hey Rob, hey Rob" over and over while cutting and I don't know anyone named Rob! And sometimes it sounds like a donkey braying! I like it!!!!"

Well, my machine started saying "Hey Robbie, hey Robbie, hey Robbie"over and over while

I was cutting the Penguin out.

 I don't know anyone named Robbie, but he must be related to Debra's Rob! ROFL

Hey Robbie!

Now Robbie is entered into Mary and Leos Christmas Challenge!

Thank Debra for the inspiration and being a great friend.

After I recoupe from hearing Robbie for the last two days, I will post the scut file and instructions for anyone that would like to hear his name..lol

Say goodnight!

Thanks for stopping by and have a Great week!

Keep checking back, as I will be creating more fun projects for you to enjoy.

Hugs!
