Merry Christmas, Santa

Christmas (and Winter Break) is almost here! The tree is up with a few presents underneath, lights are twinkling on the house, and the weather is definitely chilly.  What is that? I think I can hear...

Up on the rooftop 

Click, click, click 

Down thru the chimney with 

Good Saint Nick 

This stamped sentiment is from My Craft Spot ~ Mistletoe set.

The Santa SVG file is from Too Cute By Jessica ~ Christmas Faces. It was easily cut on my Cameo and adhering was a few pieces that layered nicely.

This photo seems blurry, but it was an action shot since Santa is on an action wobble. I don't even know if they make them still, but I have a few in my stash. It was too fun playing with Santa and watch him dance around in circles wildly.

Other Materials:

red, white, cream, and black card stock

pattern paper by Recollections ~ Cozy Lodge stack

My Favorite Things ~ Blueprints 20

Versafine Black Onyx ink

red gems

Challenges:

Always Fun Challenges ~ Santa

Use Your Stuff ~ Christmas is Coming

Sisterhood of Crafters ~ All About Christmas

Hope that you are on the nice list this year and get everything you wish for!

You're A Great Friend

Hello Everyone,

It has been busy the past couple of days, but this next week should be a bit slower paced. My daughter and I went to Flagler Beach on Thursday and yesterday I went to a National Science Conference in Orlando since my co-worker was unable to attend. That was a neat experience to be be able to talk to other Science teachers from all over the world. The authors of the Picture Perfect series presented and I attended an electrical cicuit session that was loads of fun.  

Today I am sharing a card I made for a great friend just not sure which one yet.

I used the following sketch from My Favorite Things.

I used the cloud stencil to create the background then added my stamped lovable leopard with pop dots. I used lots of MFT die for the scalloped edges, square frame, stitched rectangle mat, and sentiment banner.

The sentiment is from the MFT Lovable Leopard stamp set.

Hope you have a fabulous weekend,

Take Care,

Georgiana 

My Hero Wobbles to the Rescue

Welcome back for another Die Cuttin' Diva Tuesday.

This Week's Challenge...

Action Wobble/Add Dimension

Here is my Design Team project...

My daughter has been studying for her AP World History exam almost none stop for two weeks and she hasn't given up. She seems to be flying through everyday, so she can pass this course to get her college credit. This Super girl reminds me of my daughter!

She looks so happy flying over the city looking for villains. In my daughter's case...she is searching for all the correct answers.

I used a white gel pen to add faux stitching around the outline of her hair and a smudge of pink glitter glue on her bow.

The Supergirl is adhered to an action wobble to add dimension and movement.

I got a kick out of the action picture of this Supergirl, although no one else in my family appreciated her wobbling to the rescue. She really does move!

Other Materials:

Heidi Grace paper ~ Daisy Dear

yellow, pink, brown, tan, red, and black card stock

Superhero Girls file ~ Too Cute by Jessica

3 pink buttons

yellow and white twine by American Craft

My Hero stamp by Jaded Blossom

black ink
