Christmas at Just Some Lines

Hello and thank you for hopping with me for the Christmas release at Just Some Lines Blog Hop. If you came from Juelmarie's Blog, you are right on track. If you just happened to visit little ol' me, then guess what? We're having a blog hop and let me encourage you to start at the Beginning for inspiration and chances to win fun prizes!

I am using Mistletoe Fairy to dress up my Tiny Takeout Box.

I colored her with Copics, and added a little glitter to the wings.

This is a small box made from an 8" by 8" piece of CS, but it actually holds a LOT of kisses!

So in order to win prizes, 1) please comment on all the blogs along the way, and2) have fun!!

Thanks so much for hopping along with us and good luck! Your next stop is: Audrey!

Brujas

Hello and happy Tuesday! Today I'd like to share with you my Halloween card to my Mom.

I'm using the clever Witches Tea as a sort of "like mother, like daughter" feel to my card.

Here's a close up. The inside reads: From One Bruja to Another...Happy Halloween. FYI, Bruja = witch. And believe it or not, when you get us laughing, we really do sound just like brujas!

Thank you for stopping by today and a reminder that the current challenge at Just Some Lines Blog is: Reminds Me of a Song!

This will be entered in the following challenges:

• Card Positioning Systems - Layout CPS 239
• Come & Get It - Orange, Black & Purple
  

Boo Treat Holder

Hello and welcome to the weekend!

Today the new challenge at Catch the Bug is:

Trick or Treat ABC (Anything But a Card)

I was actually excited for this one because I've been dying to make this little treat holder! I turned Chubby Ghost - Candy Corn into a MTC file and cut using my Cricut:

Bugaboo stamps are really die-cut friendly and come together so well.

Side view, still closed. Can you see the candies inside? I got the tutorial at Splitcoaststampers - Tea Bag Holder (and the video really helps).

Inside - you can see I did a zig-zag stitch to attach the "holder" to the outside.

And the candy peeking out.
So join us this week and let me encourage you to take a look at all the other projects at Catch the Bug. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Orange Sweetie

Hello and Happy Friday! Boy how I look forward to weekends!

Today at Bugaboo Stamps, Jodie is giving away not one, but TWO FREEBIES!!

So run, don't walk, to get this adorable little girl FOR FREE!!

DP is from MyGrafico, sewing, sentiment is from Stampin' Up's Teeny Tiny Wishes, and the layout is from Midnight Madness.

I was a little orange happy. Mind you, it's not one of my favorite colors, but I think it turned out OK. So don't forget to pick up your freebie and have a great weekend!

Party Animal

Hello and hope you are having a lovely Thursday. This week, Bugaboo Stamps is sponsoring the challenge over at For Your Inspiration.

What can I say? I found this to be a REAL challenge. I showed the "photo inspiration" to my husband. Then I showed him my party animal. He said "oh...you made a multi-colored monster." I tried to point out that I used the same colors that were in the photo to color up my little Birthday Monster.

He said "oh! I get it now." But I don't think he really did. Oh well, I tried. I used George Cricut Cart for the tag, and added a little sewing. Oh! And he's turning 40 this month, so this little guy will be attached to a nice big ol' cowboy hat he's been wanting!

Moo-chas Gracias

Hello and happy Hump Day!

So, my big brother Matt was nice enough to fix our Jeep - he's ASE Master Certified (I like bragging about his mechanical abilities!). It was a big job and he works for chocolate chip cookies...well, at least that's what I pay him :)

So here's a thank you card going out in the mail just for him along with a gift card to his fave place, Olive Garden. The sassy cow is Cow Cow from Just Some Lines, the DP is from MyGrafico, and the fab layout is Eat Sleep Stamp.

Get it? MOO-chas Gracias! LOL! Once again, I make myself giggle.

Thanks so much for stopping by. I really appreciate your visit and have a wonderful day!

This will also be entered in the following challenges:

• Crazy Amigo challenge - Animals
• Papertake Weekly - Anything Goes
• Shopping Our Stash - Thank You
• Crafty Cardmakers - Anything Goes
  

Winter Turtle

Happy October!!
Over at Catch the Bug, the new challenge this week is:

ANYTHING GOES

So why not Christmas in Autumn? I'm using the super duper cute Turtle - Winter :

Now come on! Isn't he adorable?! The sentiment is Stampin' Up's Short & Sweet and the layout is Splitcoaststampers SC333.

And how about all that glossy goodness? I guess I just really like this guy and can't wait to send it out this Christmas.

Thanks for stopping by today and have a wonderful weekend.
