More X-Mas Fun

OMG I'm in trouble. I discovered another Scrapbooking store today with the most incredible paper and embellishments. It's less than 10 minutes from the house!! Must.........control.........self!!

I tore myself away from the store only $15 poorer (?) to try some cards without traditional Christmas colours for a bit!

My favourite one yet... the one with the yellow scalloped trim. The tiny snowflake punchouts each have a tiny red stone in the centre of the metal eyelet. The other looks quite similar to another made earlier but the scalloped edge and punched tag corner are new accents.

Last one for tonight... I made 4 cards today...I don't think I've ever made 4 in one day. Metallic red and silver brads and dollar store mini-gems made this card sparkle!

Various Cards

Having discovered www.photobucket.com I can't help but upload a few more pics of cards. I'm working on some more Christmas cards today!

Does it look like I was on a roll?

X-mas Cards are fun! I love the whimsical snowflake punch! Kills the old adage "no two are alike" but what the hell...they're versatile and super chilly! An eyelet set into the middle of a snowflake was handy!

Funky Hand thoughts

Funky Hand thoughts <-- coolest card site I've yet to find!

My room was a nightmare before I decided to organize the shit out of it. Afterwards, it was days before I could come up with an idea. Thankfully the imagination & motivation returned! 2 of the neat organizers I found at Ikea are the galvanized tins hangin on the wrought iron rod and the octopus/clothespeg laundry thingy hanging from the TV. The octopus thing allows you to clip-hang 16 items. (rub ons-lettering-stickers)

I liked the pink one so much I made one in blue! Textured centre papers behind hand-fashioned tags w/raffia. 3D foamy stickers coloured in and embossed stamp.
