Snowman poop !! BBTB challenge !!

What a fun little project it was this week !! The BBTB team were asked to use the nut cup from Tags bags cart !! I thought what a fun little cup to make into little treats filled with either marshmallows or scotch mints and call it snowman poop !! The tag reads Youve been naughty, so here's the scoop, you're getting nothing but snowman poop !! Again the team did an awesome job this week with lots of great ideas and creations you can check them out HERE

Snow Girl !!

This is a one page layout i made, i used JOTS for the snowflake fit to page and Home accents for the snowflake photo corners, paper is by Fiskars and around the block and i also used Tim Holtz distress inks, chipboard letters i actually picked up at the dollar store !!, snowflake brads from my stash !! TFL !!!

Christmas box BBTB challenge

I quite enjoyed making this project this week , I re covered a pillow box with lovely christmas paper by K and Co then i used the tree cut from the joy of the season cart in paper by my minds eye i used crackle accents on the tree and the circles i cut and stickled around the circles. I added some cute little red rhinestones and added bows in gold and red and a gorgeous glittered poinsetta. Thanks for taking the time to look and i would love to hear your feed back !! You can check out all the other amazing projects HERE !

My Girl ! BBTB challenge !

Well i really had to get my thinking cap on for this challenge ! Regina asked us to use the accent essential cart and to use the accent 49 cut !! I had been wanting to do some layouts for a while now and thought the cut would make a wonderful border.
I used black red and cream papers by Autum leaves i think it's called foof a la. Autumn red cardstock and black soot distress ink by Tim Holtz. The border down the left is the accent 49 cut and i added some croched flowers with little cream pearls . The my girl was cut 3 times and layered from the storybook cart and i covered them with glossy accents, then pop dotted them off the page. I also cut two flourishes from the accent cart and added a larger croched flower. I added just a few buttons in the same colours ! You have to check out what all the other designers did this week !! They are one talented group of ladies ! see there wonderful designs HERE !

I designed a cricut class !! for Two Scrapbook Friends

This is so exciting for me !! a couple of weeks ago i went to a pink crop at my LSS Two scrapbook friends and they had fallen in love with a couple of recent cards i had made and asked me if i would like to design a cricut class for them using the christmas cheer cart !! Well yes of course i would lol !! So whilst i was there we picked out the paper ribbon trimmings etc and they wanted me to use two designs i had already done just change them a little !! I also had to design one other card !! This class will be offered shortly at there store and the information will be posted on their blog HERE, so keep watching !! here are the cards !!

Christmas for you !! daring card makers !

I made this for the challenge over at the daring card makers site, the challenge was to use scallops !!!

Just a quick card i threw together using my new bauble folder and bauble cut and emboss die !! I highlighted parts of the background baubles with stickles. I also used stickles and perfect pearls to add dimention to the bauble die, Scallop border cut from Plantin schoolbook at 1", glittered the white background and added white spot doodling. A few skittles and some old glitter trim to finish it offf !! thanks for looking !

Seasons greetings ! BBTB challenge

What a great challenge again this week, The BBTB team were asked asked to use the pear cut from the home accent cart and i knew straight away i was going to make a christmas card !!

I cut the scrolled background from the storybook cart then i heat embossed it with white holographic embossing powder ( so pretty ). My pears are heat embossed with gold around the edges and centres and i used the cuttlebug to dry emboss the fleshy section of the pears. The leaves are covered with lime stickles. I used a inkidinky christmas stamp which i also embossed with the gold. Thanks all for looking and please check out all the amazing other creations at BBTB !!!
