Monday December 28th

 Just had to share a couple more Christmas cards! Absolutely love the Chubby Snowmen by Art Impressions. Couldn't stop making the 'slimline' cards. There are five different variations. I used Whimsy slim line dies for the cards. You have to look close at a couple, as the difference is in the coloring. Of course, I used my copics.



          The first one and this one are the same. Isn't that bunny precious?
 


            It looks like rain today and so my photos aren't as crisp as I would like. Just wanted to show you before we forgot the Christmas season!

                                      Thanks for looking

 Good Morning for the third time!! I found these cards on my other camera stick and wanted to share. These are (more of), yes, the word dies from Gemini.



             So far these are the only ones that I thought wasn't already on the blog. I think I will just close for today and hopefully more tomorrow!! 

                     Thanks for looking & stay warm

Today I wanted to share a medley of Christmas cards that were made earlier in the year. The one below is a sizzix frame die. Could be with any flower for any season.
                                          
           The baby in the manger is a stamp from Colorado Craft Company. A big "thanks" to the Colorado Craft company for remembering what Christmas is all about. The birth of our saviour.  Jesus Christ the Lord.  Such a sweet set.
      




                        I had super fun with the next images from Concord & 9th.

                            




                                    

 
           The Oversize Merry is a Waffle Flower stamp & die set. 


         


                                                   Hope you had fun looking!!

Friday December 18th!

 One more week! Almost time to bake a cookies. I remember when I used to bake 10 different kinds of cookies and candies! The kids were young, and lots of friends around and more people to share.  covid 19 did put a damper on baked or homemade items too  For today we have more tags to share.  This will be the last for awhile. Maybe.

           Could be 'my favorite things' dies. Didn't keep the packaging and they are it with another set.


 

      When I made the shaker cards above, I used the square die from the set shown next.

          This is the other set. Or maybe 2 sets. Have no idea. So we have the die with the rounded top, and the optional square or round window. Then, there is another set of tag tops & bottoms. There is a  squared top, 2 scalloped tops and then there are the 2 shapes you can use for the lower edge of the tag.I do have a set from ECD that has the varied tops and bottoms. Much like this one, you can make the 'tag' as long as you want. The one from ECD is a bigger (wider) tag.
                                              





                                       Thanks for looking & enjoy the season!

 More tags today. We will see how far this takes me, there will be more coming! The die is a Mariannes tag. There are 5 dies in the set. The lower edge has an interesting inverted curve.







 This is another set of shaker tags. The stamps are from Gerda Steiner stamps. They are called 'Peekin' Santa.
 



                 



Below is the next 'tag' die. This is a simple 'foldover' die. This easy, pretty little die is from Reverse Confetti.





                Backed with glitter paper and embellished with colored flowers above and then, below, I made a couple Christmasy snow scene with the penguins. So much fun.
                     Sorry again as I don't remember where this one came from!

                                                  
       Here is a cute 'not a tag, could be a tag' bonus. In case you missed the Colorize collections from Tim Holtz. These are so easy, Either 8 or 11 pieces cut in pre-assigned colors and assembled numerically. Try out a pink snow man!!



                                                 Have a great evening!
