Ornamental Pine 05 05 front

 

Another challenge card for the December Creative Crew on Splitcoast!  This challenge was to create a window on your card.  I used the Window Frames Collection Framelits – perfect!  The card size is a 5 x 5 and has Ornamental Pines stamped behind it.

The candle on the front was hand cut and the flame is from the Bird punch.  I “dripped” Dazzling Diamonds down the side of the candle.

The garland under the candle is made with he branch in the Bird punch – just like the flame.  Tie a bow with the Cherry Cobbler seam binding and you have a pretty window card. Play along by using the keyword CCREW1214CF, CreativeCrew, SUO.  Hugs, Fran

Hot Diggity Dog 03

The Creative Crew challenges on Splitcoast this month start with using non-traditional colors on a Christmas card.  I used Melon Mambo, Black and Tempting Turquoise – that’s non-traditional!  These pups from Hot Diggity Dog have just spotted the perfect tree!  The sentiment was done in My Digital Studio2.  Play along using the keyword CCREW1214DF, CreativeCrew, SUO

Tiny Tree 01

One of the Creative Crew challenges on Splitcoast this month is Holiday Focus – and I chose Christmas decorating.  This little tree is made by tearing Typeset Designer Series paper into squares – starting at 2 1/2″ and working in 3’s down to 1 1/4″ – and poking them onto a bamboo skewer with chipboard square between each piece.  After they were all on the skewer, I sprayed the tree with spray adhesive and covered it with glitter.  Put a styrofoam ball in the bottom of a small container and stick the skewer into the ball.  I used shred to cover the top of the bucket.  Punch 2 little stars out of Glimmer paper and hot glue them to the top of skewer.  You can make an entire forest of these little gems to decorate your home!  Play along by using the key word CCREW1114HF CreativeCrew SUO!

There was a light sprinkling of snow yesterday so I guess the holidays really are just right around the corner!  Hugs, Fran

Ghoulish Greetings 01

Happy October!  One of the Creative Crew challenges at Splitcoast this month is a Halloween/Fall Focus.  I did a Fry box created with the Motley Crew Designer Series paper and Ghoulish Greetings.  The Fry Box die is one of the easiest dies out there – die cut, adhere on the sides and decorate.  I embellished the sentiment with googlie eyes on the sides and decorated the polka dot cello bag with googlie eyes too.

Not much of a Halloween fan or need a Fall treat?  I flipped the DSP so that the just the leaves on the trees were showing and made a Fall Fry box.

Gratitude for Days 01

The sentiment is from Gratitude For Days and the embellishment on the top is 3 Autumn Wooden Embellishments colored with ink pads and glued together.
