Festive Snowman

 
I love Snowmen!  So do a few of my friends so I'm sure it will go to one of them.  Started with a 1 1/4" x 12" strip of whisper white card stock and scored every 1/8" and used Sticky Strip to adhere the ends together.  The rosette was then held down and I used Hot Glue in the center to hold it together.  I free hand cut the nose, the eyes are from the Owl Builder Punch along with the hearts on his smile.  Smile made with Oval Punch, slide paper in just a bit and cut then slide it back in and cut again, you can make your smile thick or thin depending on your taste.  For the holly leaves, I used the oval punch scored down the middle and did some more free hand cutting.  The berries were punched using the Cupcake Builder punch.  I made the bow tie with one of the Holiday Ornaments Framelits die cut twice and hot glued the center together.  To give a little definition to the tie, I used a black sharpie.  The card size is 5 1/4" x 10 1/2", stamped the snowflakes in Versamark and then sprayed with Champagne Shimmer mist mixed with rubbing alcohol for some shimmer.

Autumn Post-it Holders


 
 
Decided to make some post-it note holders, I've made some in the past but I really like the pen holder on this one!  I thought they would be hard to make but not so, super easy :-)
 
Cut paper:  7 3/8" x 3 1/4"
Score at:  3 1/8, 3 1/2 & 3 7/8
Fold score lines then fold just the middle score line and then cut up to the next score line twice to make the pen holder.
Fold the pen holder part out and use sticky strip and fold down to keep it in place, add 3x3 post-it notes and decorate as desired.  
 
This weekend I'll take some photo's and post them so you can see how it goes together.

White Christmas

 
I had a challenge from a friend of mine who wanted a Silver and White Christmas Card.  The tree and sentiment were stamped in Versamark and embossed with silver embossing powder.  Being white on white, I wanted to add some layers to give it some depth.  The tree is popped up with dimensionals onto a layer of whisper white and then layered onto Silver Glimmer paper.  Embossed another piece of whisper white and used the Lacy Brocade embossing folder for some texture and glued to the card  base.  The Silver Glimmer paper was also popped up on dimensionals.  I hope she likes my creation!

Christmas Gift Tags

 
I had some scraps left over from other projects and thought I would use them on gift tags.  The Snowman face was easy, made with punches all except his nose which I stamped from the Stylin' Snowfolk stamp set, clear embossed and then cut out.  The best part about these tags is the receiver can use them has ornaments the following year.  I love dual purpose items.
