I Love Flaky Friends

 These Cute little Buddies are popping up all over the internet.   I made this adorable card to send to a friend.  These cute Winter Buddies are so fun for all your winter projects.

The Flakey Friends stamp sets from HoneyBeeStamps are in stock and shipping Now. 

I have been creating with these guys a lot lately.  Here are a couple other cards I have made with them. 

This Penguin matches perfectly with the Doodle Bug Designs Winter paper collection.

This guy is just floating around in my shaker card.  So Cute.  I cut the outline of this bear from the  digital Print and cut download also available in the HoneyBeeStamp shop. 

 So If you have not picked up a set of these fun Flakey Friends stamps you better hop over to the shop and get one today.  Once they sell out these stamps will not be available again until the fall. 

Have a Happy Day.

Snow Fun layout

Hi Today I am sharing a recent Project Life layout I created to document a fun snow day spent with my daughter and her best friend. 

Using parts of all three stamp sets from the "Flakey Friends Bundle" 

I created a Distress Ink watercolor card using every snowflake from the three different sets. 

 first I heat embossed the snowflakes and sentiment with WOW white pearl embossing powder.

 Then I used four different colored Distress inks spritzed with water on my acrylic block. After the ink is applied and spritzed with water you just lay the watercolor paper on top of the color to create the watercolor effect.

I love that the soft colors look like snow falling on the background of my card. 

 These adorable "friends" are the perfect embellishments on my card. For these guys, I stamps on white card stock then fussy cut them out.  I created hats, scarves and banners. So many options with these stamp sets.  They mix and match perfectly throughout the sets.

This is my completed layout. I think it came out super cute. My daughter will love this page in her album.  

Thanks for stopping by today.  Happy New Year. Stay warm!

Winter Pocket page

Today I am sharing with you a pocket page that I created for my dear friend's Birthday. 

With the last name of Snow and a December birthday I thought this page would be perfect for her. 

I used the Doodlebug designs Frosty Friends collection for this project.

Of course I had to add some CraftyPickle flair  and Pickle relish sequins when embellishing some of the cards. 

The Winter set is perfect for this snowy page.

I pray that you and your family have a happy and warm winter.

Pretty Gift tags

  Today I am sharing some Pretty gift tags. 

Gift wrapping for Christmas is one of my favorite holiday activities. 

I love to wrap my gifts in beautiful paper with real ribbon bows and handmade gift tags. 

Today I used the Honey Bee,  "Lotus Blossom" stamp

I used Wow rich gold embossing powder  

to emboss the flower, I then colored the stamped image with a red Prima watercolor pencil

I fussy cut the blossom to attach to my tags.  

 I used the To: & From:, from the "Special Delivery" stamp set  
stamped in red.  I attached my finished flowers with 3D foam tape to add some dimension.

here is a closer look at my tags. 

I hope that this post inspires you to create some beautiful tags and packages.

Christmas cards with Flair

 Today I am sharing a couple of Christmas cards I have made.  I love to make my own Christmas cards each year for special family and friends.  

 

I love adding a little "flair" to my cards with some fun buttons from TheCraftyPickle Etsy shop

Rudolf's nose shines bright with this red bokeh flair.

Red patterned Color pop set

 

I really like the layers on this card.  The fun Merry & Bright is just the right touch to embellish this card.

How cute is this December set? 

There are a ton of New products now available in the shop.  

Just in time for all your Christmas crafting projects.

This is my favorite from the new release. 

Thanks for stopping by today

December Days Album cover

Hi today I would like to share my December Days album cover and a peek inside.

I Chose a WRMK red faux leather 8x8 album this year.  All the pages have 4x6 photo pockets with a 2x4 embellishment pocket. 

I stamped my album title with The Brush Grunge Alpha set by HoneyBeeStamps.  This is by far my favorite alpha set.  I can literally create any sentiment I choose with this set. 

Here is a closer look at my cover. 

This is my title page, I am going to add more embellishments, but this is a start.

 I have added cards to each page to prepare for my photos and journaling.  I am ready to start documenting December.

Please check back often in December to see my progress.

Another Fall layout, Project Life style

Today I am sharing with you the companion page to my last fall layout.  This is my first project for the  

Sketches in Thyme Project Life style blog. 

At Sketches in Thyme Project Life Style we create a project life card based on a sketch each week.  We then create a Project life or traditional Scrapbook page including that card. 

Here is the Sketch for the Week of Nov. 16-20th 

Here is my Card created from this Sketch 

I took the basic & image created in 4x4 and turned it into a 4x6 card to include in my project life layout. I also used that fabulous "Fallen Leaves" CTMH stamp to create my leaves on this layout.

 

I just love the way these two page coordinate together in my album.  Don't be afraid to use both formats in your scrapbook albums. 

You can play along with us over at Sketches in Thyme Project Life Style and enter a card or layout based on the sketch.  You will be entered into a drawing to win a prize each month. 

Here is this months prize.
