Christmas tags

Hello everyone!! Hope you have a fabulous Halloween if you celebrate.  I have 4 kids so they look forward to this every year. Me on the other hand can't wait till it's over. I love seeing my kids get so excited and dressed up but for some reason I have never been that into this celebration even as a kid. 

So today I am sharing some tags I made for Whimsy Stamps using one of their new dies called "Funky Christmas tree".  

I had so much fun making these tags, There are so many possibilities!! I pulled out some of my stamp stash and used them to stamp some of the background swirls and sentiments. On the blue one I used the stamp set from Whimsy Stamps called "Christmas Mini Tag Sentiments"  

Hope you like the tags!

Have a great weekend!

Fall Love!!!

Hellllooooo everyone!!! Well here we are with another week gone. I can't believe how quickly time gets away anymore. I have to say that I am super excited to say I have finished a project that has been hanging over my head for some time now. I started painting my kitchen to long ago and finally finished it on Friday......HOORAY!!!!  I am not done with my goal which is the whole first level but it feels great to have it done. 

Ok enough with the boring stuff. Today I am sharing a card I did for Whimsy Stamps.  This week I chose to color one from Jo Davies at Time for Tea Designs "Fall Love".  

I had so much fun making this card. I heat embossed the background and then watercolored over the top. I love using watercolors. Colored her with my Copic markers. I found a leaf stamp in my stash and colored them then cut them out. I did go over the image with my Verithin Prismcolor pencils to add a little depth. 

Copics used:

Skin:  E50, E51, E53

Hair:  E59, E57, E31

Greens:  YG61, YG63, YG67

Browns:  E84, E87, E89

Orange:  YR21, YR23, YR27

Hope you like my card today!

Happy Fall!

Gingerbread Love

Hello everyone!! Wow has this week gone by fast, so fast I didn't get my project up when I wanted to.....oops!! Getting older and 4 kids is making my brain forget things....:)

Anyway I want to share some tags I made using the new set from Krista Heij-Barber called "Gingerbread Love". This set is so darn cute!! 

I colored these cuties with my Prismacolor pencils. I am really enjoying them right now. I also used the new die "Large Merry die".  I cute it out on one tag then used it as a stencil to spray the other tag. I then glued the cut out back into the the negative, hope that makes sense. I had lots of fun with this stamp set. 

I made a gift box with the one to put some cookies in or some cookie mix with a cookie cutter attached. I didn't have any cookies in the house so I just made do with some yarn...:)

Thanks for stopping by!
