Christmas Crafts

I played a little bit in my studio today and this is 

what the results were.

The train was created from AccuCut Craft Dies and embellished with various papers and etc.

Three of the four cars are open on the top so that they can be filled with goodies.

The Christmas tree is a mini album that favorite photos of the holiday can be 

placed on the photo mats and treasured for years to come.

This is also a set of dies from AccuCut.

This tree is covered with branches from Stampin Up attached to a tree base from AccuCut

and the nativity is from Heartfelt Creations.

This set is another tree from AccuCut and the elf is a Tim Holtz die set.

Just love that little guy.  I'm not sure I have finished this yet, thinking of

adding a bit more to it and putting it in another setting.

Although, just adding a ribbon to this one and the other tree, can make

cute ornaments.

Another month is passing, a new one soon to arrive.  For me, May has been a challenging month as I had an intense surgery,  but I must say the recuperation, recovery, restoration is progressing well. Due to all of that, playing and creating has been a bit slow. Yesterday, 5/29/2019, was the first time that the gals and I have gotten together. A blessed reunion, wonderful fellowship and productivity! Here are a few cards that we made.

Wednesday Play Day!!!  

I love it when the girls show up at my door to play.

Here's what we did.

We did some water coloring using Stampin Up stamps

Kathi had us silver emboss the rose and sentiment.

I added the embossed border along with some splattering and 

glitter in the open areas of the rose.

Got the idea for this card from "vertical cards" in Pinterest.

We then played with some water coloring and alcohol inks.  Too fun!
