And I found the perfect cut files to go with these sentiments. Who doesn't love the grump of Christmas!!?? This file set can be found over at Too Cute by Jessica "Grumpy Christmas"!!! I paired these with the sentiments "Baaa Humbug!" and "Here comes Santa Paws!" but on the second one I left off the here comes. These sentiments came from the Cardz Tv Stamp set "Christmas Critter Captions"!!! Also the mats on these gift card holders come from TCBJ as well which can be found here "Lots of Labels"!!! I also used my TAP punch to stamp the sentiment on and the paper pad is from Hobby Lobby (last year). I added random touches of stickles to each holder as well. These were so much fun to put together. I can't wait to hand them out to share my joy of these. LOVE the Grinch!!! Here is some pictures of my two gift card holders I made!!! Hope you enjoy them!!

Hot Cocoa Layout and K-Cup Holder!!! Guest Designing for PPPR Today!!!

Ok so how fun are these cutting files. I kept having multiple ideas run through my head for these files. But I figured I would do a more holiday themed with these two projects. So first I created this Layout using the Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbon  "Hot-Cocoa-Cutting-Files"!!! This file is so versatile. I can see myself using this on many more layouts, cards and even 3D projects (Just wait to see my 2nd project). So I created this layout with the idea to use it for some Hot Cocoa pictures of my kids while watching a movie or playing in the snow during this holiday season. I also created a pull out behind the main picture spot, just incase I want to add multiple pictures from this memory and if not I will use it for journaling. The hearts on the is layout I made with the negative from my second project and just used it as a stencil with some acrylic paint. I used stickles everywhere LOL and also did some fo-stitching. I used my tap punch for the pull out as well at the top of my page where I will add the date (maybe). Ok so here are some pictures of my layout along with some close ups. Enjoy and if you keep going you will see my 2nd project!!!


For my 2nd project I created a K-cup Holder with corrugated paper using PPPR "K-Cup-Treat-Cutting-Files" I also used the file "Hot Cocoa" again (SEE sooooo much fun to work with). I left out one layer on the You Melt My Heart, just because I really wanted to add some fo-stitching as well on this project. Also on the cup I did two layers of the "Heart Steam" just to make it pop more with the paper I choose. I also added A fun and cute sentiment "Simple things make life sweet!" from Cardz Tv Stamp set "Just Saying"!!! Then I tied some tulle on my project that came from my sweet Friend Julie "Ready Set Stamp".... It was actually on suckers she sent my girls and of course I could not throw it away after they pulled it off to get to the suckers LOL!!! So I did some upcycling and then added this very fun brad from recollections ( I believe) and all the pattern paper is from a Studio Calico paper pack "Magical Collection" and the 12x12 paper was just from my stash I believe is My Mind's Eye. OK so most of this project is created with fun craft stuff Julie sent me so I just want to give a HUGE THANK YOU to her for being such an amazing friend to me and of course for all the amazing stuff she sent me. So now here is some pictures if my little treat holder I made that I want to get some hot cocoa K-Cups to put in it. I hope you enjoyed my projects today and if you are swarming with ideas in that head of yours now with what you can create with these files, then head on over to Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons and get yourself a little treat. Thank you for stopping by and I hope you push the Follow button so you can see what else I have in store for you. Hope you have a FABULOUS weekend!!!

Adorable Halloween Cards TCBJ & Cardz TV

Hi everyone, welcome to any new followers. I am so happy you stopped by today!!! I have two super fun Halloween cards for you. The first card I created was a vampire card, I tried to make this card as simple as I could. This one will be for my nephew and he would not be fond of any bling or sparkle lol he is the only boy out 7 cousins. So it was hard not to add glitter but I would do anything for that boy!!! So I added fo-stitching and I also added some little gems. I have a huge glass container full for decoration and thought they would be perfect to add a little extra touch with no bling effect (they were left over from my wedding decor)!!! I thought they looked just like enamel dots??!! The second card I made a pumpkin kid. When I seen this adorable set of Costume Kids I could not wait to use the adorable pumpkin. Thought it would be perfect for my baby girls first Halloween. Can you tell I was having glitter withdrawals from my other vampire card lol?! I used the sketch from Mojo Monday last week. I LOVED how these cards turned out. Both sentiments came from the new Cardz Tv stamp set "Frankly Frightful" and both of the die cuts came from Too Cute by Jessica "Cute Costume Kids". Also all the pattern paper came from DCWV Halloween stack, I am in love with this paper!!! Here are a few pictures of my card, hope you enjoy them as much as I did making them.
