Holiday Cocoa Mug

Hello Crafty Friends,

 I am a little late, but today is my day to share at 3 Girl JAM. I used a brand new product from the 3 Girl JAM shop on my project...holiday trim (silver) and a favorite of mine...crinkle ribbon.

Here is my Design Team project...

A holiday mug with hot cocoa, marshmallows, and candy canes.

I used the green ribbon from the Winter Bundle and the red ribbon from the Red, White, and Blue Bundle. The stamp is part of the Craftin' Desert Divas Holly Day Punnies set.

I found the 3D teacup box (my mug) at the Silhouette Online Store. It is a file by Lori Whitlock (Design ID #53794).

Hope you will join us at 3 Girl JAM with your newest holiday project.

Daily Post and the November Challenge at 3 Girl JAM

Welcome Back Crafty Friends,

 Today is my day to share at 3 Girl JAM and I am SUPER excited! I have been busy making a variety of holiday projects and it is only the beginning of November. As I would say to my kids, "Mark this day on the calendar." You probably know that means it doesn't happen often! 

I used two different products from the 3 Girl JAM shop on my project...crinkle ribbon and an elegant white lace.

Here is my Design Team project...

The snowmen are from Miss Kate Cuttables. They were both freebies!

The base of card was cut from Campin' Critters' Cricut cartridge at 3 3/4" and the top layer is 3 1/2". The snowflakes were cut with a Fiskars punch. The red handmade paper was a prize from Diana at DL.ART...Thanks!

Both trims are from 3 Girl JAM...the new beautiful white lace and Aqua Splash crinkle ribbon. The sentiment is a stamp from Whimsical Designs stamps.

Hope you will join us at 3 Girl JAM with your newest holiday project.

"Blog Tour"

Hello Crafty Friends,

Welcome back and THANKS for taking some time out of your busy day to stop by to see what I have been creating lately. I appreciate ALL the kind words you have left...keeps me motivated to share another project. During the past week I have been making time (not finding it, but rearranging the busy schedule or omitting some activities) to create a few projects to keep me sane.

One area I have neglected and wanted to "redeem myself" was with sharing some information for a "Blog Tour" that I was invited to a while ago. I was asked by Amy E. from Scrap This, Save That and Connie from Connie Can Crop. Going to Europe and then school starting distracted me for a while...but I am getting back on track now!

The purpose of the "Blog Tour" is to share information about yourself. Here is a little about me...

Questions...

1. What am I working on?
I am currently working on Thanksgiving and Christmas projects for school, secret pal, design teams, and challenges. I have a mixture of cards and 3D projects. I am hoping to try stamping/coloring once I build up some more confidence. I don't color often except for school...then I love markers and colored pencils! I will be able to share photos of my completed projects soon!  

 2. How does my work differ from others?
My work differs from others because it is "my" eclectic style. I like clean straight lines, layers of patterns papers, and a variety of embellishments. I enjoy using sketches and creating my own for Die Cuttin' Divas.

Here are a few of my recent favorite projects...

 3. Why do I create what I do?
I create my projects to see a finished project. Then I enjoy sharing them with others who appreciate the time and effort I put into each creation.

 4. How does your creating process work? 

It is never the same! One day I may find a die cut I just have to try, another day I may be inspired by a stamp, or it could be a piece of paper that I just have to cut. My mood also plays an important part in the decision process of what I make...when I am happy and excited I feel like I can try anything!

Rather than inviting another person to continue the "tour", please feel free to share a little about yourself here. I sure do enjoy learning about ALL of my "crafty friends".

Stay Creative,
Georgiana

November Challenge at 3 Girl JAM ~ Holiday with Ribbon

Hello Crafty Friends,

Welcome back for a new 3 Girl JAM monthly challenge. You are definitely going to want to join us this month, so you can get a jumpstart on your holiday cards!

The Challenge...

Christmas/Holiday with Ribbon

 Here is my Design Team project...

Ho! Ho! Ho! Santa is checking his list..I sure hope I am on the"nice" list. I think I have been pretty good this year. I don't really want or need anything (well...maybe a few new stamps), but I sure do like the holiday season. I will definitely be looking forward to enjoying the two weeks off. : )

Santa (Design ID #52758) is from the Silhouette On-line store. Another cute design by Lori Whitlock. The base card was cut from Campin Critters (either p. 38 or p. 47). I used the sign feature and cut it at 3 3/4" with the top layer being 3 1/2".

I used the red ribbon from the Red, White, and Blue Bundle (4 yards of each color for $5.97). Perfect for numerous occasions, especially Christmas. The stamp is from Barb at BugBites.

Hope you will join us at 3 Girl JAM with your newest holiday project.
