Tree Tag

Isn’t this a cute tag?  It’s inspired by a card that Nicole Picadura made.  I used the main element (the tree!), turned it into a tag and added some bling – okay, lots of bling – and a little tag.  The little jewelry tag punch say “a very” – that was done by just using a marker on a stamp from More Merry Messages and inking only those words.

I think I’ll make a matching bag now

Christmas Petal Cone

This is one of the boxes (could you call this a box?) we will be making at my Gift Boxes class in December.  It’s made with the Petal Cone and Snow Flurry die.  I had a hard time getting the Bashful Blue to photograph and still look Bashful.  There are lots of sweet little details on this pouch, but the photo just would not cooperate with me.  Hugs, Fran
