Dylusions Unicorn Card

Good Morning Ladies,
A happy Sunday it is. I took more ornaments up to the booth at the Co-op Shoppes. The tree is getting filled with lots of my handmade ornaments. Today's offering is Dylusions Unicorn Card

This card was conceived using left over Dylusions ink spray from peace sign ornaments I am working on. I sprayed the ornaments and the spray that was left over on the wax paper was just too tempting. So I took two tags and swished them around in it. I had the unicorn already stamped, colorized and crystal laquered. I attached him to the tag. A sheer ribbon was tied through the tag hole. I mounted this on the card base covered with the new DCWV foil cardstock. The foil cardstock is purple but picks up other hues. I love this new product. The flowers were created using a Sizzix rose die and two different Memory Box floral dies. The flowers are accented with crystal sprigs. I left this card blank inside because I felt it could be used for so  many things.

Graphics 45 Christmas Ornament

Good Evening Ladies,.
I had a great Thanksgiving! Good times with family and friends. I did not do any black Friday shopping. I did take a couple of days off from the blog.
So this evening I have a Graphics 45 Christmas Ornament

To start this ornament off I painted Tim Holtz crackle paint in linen on a paper mache' base. Once dried and cracked I sponge on Tim Holtz vintage photo distressed ink. I then wiped it off so it just settled in the cracks. I chose a cut from a Graphics 45 Christmas pad. I inked the edges in vintage photo distressed ink. I accented this with a tiny christmas wreath. Glitter was added to the sides of the ornament. Ribbons and bells top this ornament off.

Vintage Cuts Tiger Ornament

Good Morning Ladies,
I got up and looked outside this morning and we did not get what was expected to be a big snow fall. It looks like last nights storm passed us over. That makes me a happy camper. No, wait....I can't be a happy camper. It's too cold outside to be any kind of camper.
My project for today is a Vintage Cuts Tiger Ornament .

This tiger vintage cut is one that I really love. I had to find the perfect background for him though. I found the banana leaf paper is my stash. I used a gold deco pen to go around the edges. The sides are done in holographic glitter. Bells and ribbons top this ornament off.

Vintage Cut Percheron Horse Ornament

Good Morning Ladies,
Another cold one here in Northern Indiana. I guess I should be used to it since I was born and raised here. I don't like the cold but something must keep me here. Maybe the changing of the seasons. The hope it creates for next season.
Today I have a Vintage Cut Percheron Horse Ornament

It is colorized with art marker. The sides of this ornament are covered in glitter. Ribbons and bells top this ornament off.

The Stamps of Life Christmas Lights

Good Morning Ladies,
I am of course cold again this morning. The temps changed here yesterday. It feels like a cruel joke. But today I will get out my flannel jeans and try to keep warm.
My card today is The Stamps of Life Christmas Lights

This card was created using an image and two sentiments from  The Stamps of Life Christmas Lights clear set. This was before I was a die hard club member. So all lights are hand cut. I drew the light string with a Art Deco silver metallic pen. The lights were stamped on green and red card stock and the same pen was used to colorized the screw ends of the lights. I don't know what company the die was that I used for the stamping of the sentiments as I created this card at a friends house and used her dies. The background paper came from the same friend so I don't know that company either. I just don't know much today. A cute and simple card.

The Stamps of Life TV

Good Morning Ladies,
I took a little break this past few days. I was getting my Christmas tree and ornaments ready for my booth in the Co-op Shoppes. That is now up.
My card for today is The Stamps of Life TV

I have now joined the Stamps of Life die hard club. So that means each month I get a set of stamps with matching dies. I am loving it. This is the set for November. I stamped and die cut five tv's. I cut the large tv out of the DCWV corragated paper and die cut the center of the tv out of white cardstock. I stamped one of the sentiments in the center of the tv. I used two brad to look like tv knobs. My background cardstock is shared from a friend so I don't know what company it is from.
