JustRite Christmas in July

Made this one today for the challenge over at JustRite Blog. This week's challenge is to make a Christmas card using  JustRite stamps. I decided to go with the sleigh surrounded by holly from the Old Fashioned Chirstmas set (3-1/4 ). I love this image. It was lots of fun coloring. I also added some glitter by going over the gold on the sleigh and the green holly with my at you Spica pens. I love the subtle shine these give colored images. Go over to the JustRite Blog and see all the other great creations. While you are there, you may want to join the current blog hop.. lots of inspiration with new products... my poor wallet... I mean my husband's poor wallet.. ha ha..

Christmas in July

This week at The Cuttlebug Spot we are celebrating Christmas. I went with the snow theme since it's been super hot here. I wanted to pretend it was winter for a few minutes. Be sure to go visit and see all the wonderful design team creations. enjoy your day.

Embossed Paper Bag

This week we are making Christmas boxes, bags, wrappers, etc... at The Cuttlebug Spot. I have been wondering what an embossed paper bag would look like so this was a great opportunity to try. Well the only problem was that I only have brown ones, so I embossed it with a sizzix folder then inked it with gold ink. I did cut 2 inches from the top then punched with my Martha Stewart trellis punch. The centers on the flowers are glitter stickles. I cant wait to try it with colored paper bags. Let me know what you
think .

Getting ready for winter

Made this one with the new mini carts; Snow Friends, and When its Cold Outside. I welded the snowflakes together then welded them to the snowman.  He is so cute. I love how you can dress them up.

He is the Reason for the Season

I had this in my mind for a while, finally had a chance to make it.. hope you like.

The cross is from Wedding Solutions. I cut 2 of them and then embossed with the cuttlebug.  The base for the wreath is from Christmas Solutions cut at 2 inches then I used my branch punch to cover it.  Bows are a MS punch also.

I love the House Mouse stamps.. had to get started with my Christmas cards.  For this one I used  the stamp On Dasher, On Prancer. I colored it in using Magic Color Pencil technique.  These little guys are so cute. I think this will be for my niece, she is always helping her little sisters. As always thanks for visiting.

Another Martha Stewart punch.. I just love

I purchased the branch punch and I must say that its one of my favorites... next to drippy goo of course. I have made a few things with it so I am posting them all here..Enjoy and go buy this punch.
