Snowflake is a winter’s butterfly


I’m kind of partial to snow man, even though I’m not much of a winter person I would rather it were sunny and 80 if I had my choice! But living in the middle of Iowa that’s not an option in the middle of December so we make the best of it! I started out with a white card stock and layered on a snowflake pattern paper used some glitter glue inside the white to bring out the sparkle as well as the bottom of the snowman which I colored and pencils and use my small oval stitched die cut around the image and the third paper is just a solid blue to match.

Christmas Elf


Image is by stamper delight. Colored with pencils,Used a large fancy square stitched diecut around the image layered it on red and used three gemstones








Gold candles


This is a very CAS card...But it’s really strange how it looks after it was put together. I started with white card stock and layered on the glittery gold patterned card stock. I had a skeleton of the red foil that I had used for the candle dye cut. So the red is actually the skeleton but after the card was put together and the way this photo was taken it looks like the gold is on top when actually the gold is underneath the red.

Moments

I re-created a scene from a calendar. I thought it was just an absolutely beautiful fall photo that could not go without having some kind of re-purpose. I layered it on black card stock and added orange lace leaves and popped the sentiment at the top with foam tape. I also chose it for my “believe” theme.  I believe that God’s beauty is everywhere and this scene showcases it!
