Squigglefly challenge~Non Traditional Christmas Tag

Happy Monday, Hope you all had a wonderful weekend!! Today is a new Squigglefly Challenge and we would like to see those Non~Traditional Christmas tags. For my tag i used Christmas with Oswalda, all dressed in her winter clothes and doing her Christmas shopping.
This image is one of Crissy Armstrong's fabulous images and even better yet it's on sale!!

I used some very non traditional colors and to tell you the truth i really ended up liking the way it came out. Wasn't too sure when i was putting it together though lol.


Be sure to visit the Squigglefly blog for all the details on this challenge. Hope to see you there!!

Kitty's 1st Christmas

Hello Friends,

Today i have a cute little card i made for my little fur baby. This year will be his very 1st Christmas so i just had to make him a card for his scrapbook page right? I also made it to go with this week's Delightful Challenge....


FLOWER POWER
I used the ever so adorable Christmas Stocking Toby image from Digital Delights. I colored him orange just like my little guy, added some cotton to his hat and of coarse the glitter to the ball of his hat, candy canes and stocking. gotta have that bling!! added my poinsettas and there you have it, my little guys momento. although i must say i'm very nervous about putting up my tree and my gifts. he's a very mischievious cat and i have a feeling my tree will be taking a tumble at least a couple of time this season~yikes! and the gifts, well I think we will wait on putting those under the tree or we may wake up to a bunch of unwrapped gifts and an outdoor cat lol. Well i guess we'll see. :0)
As always we have a Wonderful Sponsor.
This week one lucky winner will receive a $10 Gift Certificate to the Digital Delights by Louby Loo Store.

Be sure to check out the Store for some of the most adorable images to use on the fabulous Christmas cards!!! Wendy has also added a new Gingerbread tag set in both colored and black and white versions. how sweet will these look on those gifts? now not only will they get a wonderful gift from you but also a precious memento to add into their scrapbooks or save in their memory boxes.

Well, that's all i have for today i thank you for stopping by for a visit and i want to say
HAPPY THANKSGIVING
to those of you celebrating today!!!!
and to my friends not celebrating i wish you all a Wonderful Day!!

New Delightful Challenge~ Winter Theme

Good Morning, Thanks for joining me today. Well it's Thursday and we have a fabulous new Delightful Challenge for you this week and the theme is WINTER.
This week i used Stocking Noah from Digital Delights by Louby Loo. I just think he is such a cutie!! Ok so you may be wondering why he is in pink, well that's what you get when you ask 3 girls what color i should color him, poor little guy he didn't stand much of a chance. I'm sure whoever receives this Christmas card will understand. lol. Boy does this card sparkle, I embossed some silver metallic paper with my snowflake embossing folder and added some pink sparkles to the snowflakes. then added some glitter and sparkles to Noah's oufit and stocking.
This week's Delightful Challenge is sponsored by our very own DIGITAL DELIGHTS by LOUBY LOO.

One lucky player will receive a $10.00 gift certificate to the store.

So grab your Winter images and come play along with us!!

Thanks for stopping by and have a fabulous day!! Gotta work today so i will be by to visit all my wonderful friends later tonight!!

Edwina Elf with Stocking Stuffer Timeless Template


Happy Thursday!!!

Today i have a little goodie to share with you all. It's been ages since i've actually had time to make something other than a card so i was especially excited to have finished this little goodie box using Lauren Meader's Stocking Stuffer Timeless Template.


I made this adorable stocking for this week's Delightful Challenge....GLITTER IT UP!!

We have a fabulous sponsor for our challenge this week

Stitching Challenge at Digital Delights and NEW RELEASES!!!


Good Morning my Friends!!
It's November already can you believe it?? My Goodness time is whizzing by!! but, with a new month brings NEW RELEASES and i'm so Excited to show you one of the new images along with this week's fabulous new challenge over at Delightful Challenges. Our Challenge this week is...
STITCHING
(Real or Faux)
Today i used this sweet little cutie Oralie the Sleepy Mouse. Poor little guy is all tuckered out and ready to go to bed. I went with the faux stitiching on my card seeing as how i have yet to figure out how to change the thread on my little sewing machine. Thank goodness for dp that already has some stitching in it. I used my Argyle embossing folder and embossed the dp in the back and the circle under my image. looks a lot like stitching and it's quick and easy. I also added some little dots using my white gel pen to the little scallops around my image and there you have it.
Be sure to visit the Delightful Challenge blog and Digital Delights blog to see the DT's fabulous creations made using this month's New Release images, they are AMAZING!!!
You can find the complete release HERE!
