Hi all,
I can not believe Christmas is less then 2 weeks away. This month seems to be flying by. I am also anxiously awaiting the birth of my 3rd grandchild due next week. I am trying to finish up all my cards and wrapping this week. I made this gift bag for my nail tech. I used the Cricut Forever Young cart for the purse and nail polish. The ornament is from the Cricut Artiste cart. I am entering this bag in My Craft Spot’s Wrap it up challenge.

OWH Sketch Challenge #143 with Tonic Studios!
Operation Write Home along with Tonic Studios has challenged us to create a card for our Troops using sketch #143.
Here’s the sketch…
I decided to create a card with a winter theme. I used Close To My Heart Artiste Cricut cartridge for the snowflakes and the coordinating winter stamp for the sentiment. I used cuddlebug snowflake embossing folder for the background. I highlighted the embossed snowflakes with Tim Holtz embossing ink. I added liquid pearls to the snowflake to give it a little dimension and sparkle. I embellished the bow with a crystal from Megan Elizabeth | Above Rubies Studio
I love the blue and white colors together. The card measures 4.25 by 5.50.
Comments are always welcome.
Halloween card using Paper Doll Dress Up
Hi,
I made 2 Halloween cards for a card swap over at My Fun Crafts. I used Cricut cartridge Paper Doll Dress Up for the mummy and ghost cut at 2.75 inches. The paper was from a Martha Stewart Halloween pack I got last year.

The ghost is from Paper Doll Dress Up also cut at 2.75 inches. I used Matha Stewart gate punch. The ribbon was from my stash from last year. I added the goggly eyes and spider sticker.
Have a great week

VCMP for OWH, ODBD challenge #1
I made this card for Operation Write Home’s Labor Day hop. ODBD is sponsoring our first challenge. We were to make a card with an encouraging sentiment. I love making cards for OWH and encourage you to join us in this very rewarding endeavor. Helping our troops stay in touch with their love ones is one way of saying thankyou for all they do.
For this card I used the Martha Stwewart butterfly stamp. The sentiment is an Inkadinkado stamp. I love this sentiment.
I hope everyone has a wonderful Labor Day weekend. Enjoy the three days off. I know I am.
