Shape it up!

The current  challenge at Jingle Belles is for shaped cards.....NOT square or rectangle!

I changed my shape 3 or 4 times, but I do love this one a lot!!

Since it wouldn't sit "upright" I had to turn the photo!  LOL

Shape cut from Cricut Create a Critter 2 cart, red paper from coordinations foundations (burgandy pearl), pattern paper from American Crafts, ribbon purchased from Unity Stamp Co.   Everything is cut for 3 more for a total of 4!!

Tie a ribbon!

The current challenge at Jingle Belles Rock is to tie on a ribbon (or trim or fibers)!

Stamp set is from Unity Stamp Co., papers are from scraps, along with the stripped ribbon (I think it may have come off a Christmas package we received).  The twine is Bella Creationz.

With things beginning to get more toward a normal place, I'm still planning on making 3 add'l cards to keep up with my "4 cards each challenge" challenge! LOL

Bring on the Bling!

Let me just start by saying that I totally related to this current challenge at Jingle Belles!  I am a "dance mom!"  Bling is in my blood!!

I used a strip of glitter paper, a strip of black (scrap) some kraft paper and some silver sticker paper that was run through the embossing machine and then cut.  Hand drawn ornament tops and strings.  Sentiment is from Unity Stamp Co. (...cheerful prancing).  I used a template for the swirls...get this....I purchased the templates in 2010!!  WHAT?!?!  

Making 3 more of these to complete a 4 card set!
