As you're visiting be sure to comment on all the DT members blogs for the chance to win the image they have used to make their creation. The image you have a chance to win on my blog is IZZY the ELF. now how adorable is Izzy? My husband enjoyed Izzy, he said Izzy reminds him of the Whos on the Grinch that Stole Christmas. ~lol. I used Izzy with the gifts for my card. i added some white fun flock on his little elf shoes. i pop dotted the bows on the gifts to give the gifts some dimension and colored them with glitter pens. i added lots of sparkle to my snowflake by using Martha steward glitter. The mat in the back of Izzy is made using C.C. Designs Cosmo glitter paper for lots of shimmer and i embossed it with the snowflake embossing folder from cuttlebug. I also used Izzy alone as a tag. I enlarged her quite a bit and added a santa hat to her using Christmas Scamp's hat from last month's releases. I used polar white flowersoft on her hat and around her shoes. I stamped to and from on her shirt and placed a glittery candy cane in her hand. ( for a closer look, click on photos) I really enjoyed making this tag i think she looks soooo festive and would make a cute accessory to any Christmas gift don't you think? Well that's all i have for today, so i will send you on your way to the ever so talented Diane. I thank you so much for joining in our blog hop today and leave you with this coupon code "Remember" for 40% off your order at The Character Cafe shop (coupon code expires Friday 13th at noon.)

BOO!

WOOHOO it's friday!! I don't know about you but i am sooo ready for the weekend to sleep in even if it's only for a little while longer. lol. Okay so i know in an earlier post i said i had made my last Halloween card, but i had another one in me. I just could not let this cute little witch not make an appearance this halloween season, so here she is Boo Witchy from The Character Cafe. I just love her sweet little face. Now she is definately Too Cute to Spook. The sketch i used for my card came from the Stamp With Us challenge. I used some spider web paper and my paper shapers flower punch to make my flower and crinkled it up to distress it. i used my round circle punch from SU! crinckled it and ripped all the way around it and added a little spider to the middle. My orange and black cardstock is also from SU! I also tried to make my fence as close to the color Kraft for my card to be included in the digital tuesday challenge. Well, i thank you all for stopping by and i hope you all have a wonderful day!!
