Michelle Perkett Challenge number 16

Michelle's challenge for this week was to use the colors "Blue and Green" I decided to use Michelle's Soulmates image.......I just love this image, I've used it on so many cards for different occasions. You can get this image from her Etsy shop. Here

The card itself is coredinations paper and the DP is from K&Company Hopscotch pad.......The button is also from K&C ......the ribbon and other paper is from Michael's arts and crafts store .....The corner punch is from EK success and of course I used my copics to color. I hope you enjoy. Check out Michelle's Blog and challenge. Here. And check her out on Papercraft Planet... Here

Treats For Your Sweets!!!

We are having so much fun over at Michelle Perkett Studio's Here.......She has a Design Team which is divided into three teams ........I have the privilege of being on the third team.......... we were asked to make a Treat bag with a tag.

I made a gift box full of wonderful Valentine candies .....chocolate fudge hearts and cherry cordial fill candy kisses.....Yummmmmy!!!!!!!!! Hope this inspires you to get ready for Valentines day. Have fun with this challenge.

The box is made of clear acetate .......assorted papers....... I used quite a few of Martha Stewart punches.....Pearls from Micheal's..........ribbon from my stash..........Copic's .......And of course my tag with Michelle's image.

There is a tutorial on Splitcoast stampers by Susie McCormick for the box....Her instructions are so easy to follow...Here is the link

Christmas Ornaments

Hello Everyone

I hope that everyone had a great Thanksgiving and filled there bellies to their hearts content. I know that I did and I love being around family....My favorite thing to do!!!!!!!

Well I had some time off from work and got to play a little........I wanted to share some of the ornaments I made ...... These are what I came up with ......The blues ones are made from double sided wrapping paper I bought at Costco and white cardstock that I cut into strips and I used one of Martha Stewart's edge punches. The other one is doubleside DP paper from K and company . I found the snowflake instructions on YouTube. The white ornament design is from Beeca Feeken of Amazing Paper Grace .com...You need to check out her site she is one incredible artist and she has a tutorial on how to make these ornaments.

I hope you enjoy them...Im going to use them as embellies on my Christmas presents
