Holiday Greeting

WISHING YOU ALL A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!

MSR Altered Paint Can

Hi everyone, this is the swap for December over at MSR. The altered paint can, this was a challenge for me as my partner did not want santa, reindeers, elves or any cartoon holiday characters. So, I found this design in my candy wrapper file. I just printed the design, added a few bling and embellishments to the handle. These make great gifts for the holidays and is very easy to make. Hop on over the the myscraproom.ning.com and join a few swaps. TFSB.

Christmas Party Favor

Hello everyone I'm getting back into the swing of making party favors. Here is one I am doing for this Christmas these will hold either mints or chocolates. I used the "Wrap It Up" Cricut cartridge to cut the small bag and card stock from the "I Believe" from My Minds Eye. These make great party favors for any event, just add a different lace or trim and sentiment. TFSB

Pinkscrapper99 November Tag Swap

This was my first tag swap. I wanted something a little different, so I thought of Santa's sleigh and bells. I really like the way they came out. I used the Gypsy Wanderings to cut the sleigh and the shadow pieces, Tim Holtz tag die and frame pieces. They came out really nice. Over the next few days watch out for my projects for the Xmas Holiday. TFSB

YPP November Altered Clipboard Swap

This swap was a one on one swap. I really enjoyed altering the clipboards, they are very simple and quick to make. They would make great gifts for the holiday season. Also a great gift for Teachers. The vintage blue is the one I created for my swap partner I think it came out really nice. and the light brown was from my swap partner. She did an amazing job.

Altered Christmas Ornaments

I altered a few ornaments for the November ornament swap on Yahoo Groups.

SSSS Cigar Box Swap - Halloween

Here is the Cigar Box that I created for my partner for the Secret Squirrel Cigar Box Swap hosted by Jade on Facebook. I used a fabric panel and mod podged to the cover, I also added a crackle effect to the entire box, then embellished with lace, orange trim, WOC black roses and flatbacked pearls. Then for the inside I added a Happy Halloween sticker, ribbon trim and a ruffled trim to form a pocket with a orange pull bow, then filled with goodies. I enjoyed making this box. I want to thank Jade for allowing me to join in and participate. TFSB

Birthday Card

I am trying to make cards again. I made this one for my daughter to give to her aunt. I used her favorite colors. I think it came out pretty nice. TFSB
