Blessings and Wishes to All

Hello Crafty Friends,
 
Thank you for stopping by again! I appreciate you taking time from your busy holiday weekend and leaving some crafty love. I have been busy making projects and sharing since I can't do any more shopping...we spent too much money Thursday night and Friday on all the fabulous deals. I even started wrapping some of the presents this afternoon, so the kids wouldn't see what we got them.
 
 Now I am working on three different types of treat bags for my students and co-workers. Once my daughter sees them she may even want some for her friends and teachers. Those will be shared later!
 
Here are two cards I finished earlier today.
I used Joys of the Season Cricut cartridge for the angel, which was cut at 1 3/4" from p. 53.


I added gold glitter glue to the angel's wings and scattered gold sequins on the starry background.
 
Same Sketch, but Different Colors
I also used the same cartridge, Joys of the Season, for the rocking horse (p. 57), which was cut at 1 1/2". White sequins were randomly scattered in the background and adhered in bottom right corner.


I love the bunched ribbon technique. I think it adds a slightly different look. If you want to see a pictorial, you can click here. Hope you will try!
 
I used this week's Tuesday Morning Sketches for both of these cards.
Other Materials:
pattern paper is from scrap box
dark brown, kraft, cream, and white card stock
crinkle ribbon
burgundy and blue button
gold embroidery floss
blue craft thread
gold glitter glue
My Craft Spot Stamps ~ Mistletoe set
brown and copper ink
 
Other Challenges:
 
Stay Creative,
Georgiana
