Christmas ornament/book mark

I think this would be such a cute little Christmas gift for a sunday school teacher to give to their students! I made it to be used as a tree ornament but you could also use it as a book mark.

Celebrate Jesus' Birthday

These are 2 cards that I made for a contest. I used the papertrey ink set called "piece of cake" and made Christmas cards! The word "Jesus'" was computer generated.

Here are some of the $ clear stamp sets that are available at JoAnn Fabrics. If you can not find them in your store - ASK as they had them in a box on the fabric cutting table at our store. Happy hunting!

Flower Card

Thanks to an Anne who posted this question on the PaperTrey ink forum "Anybody make a flower using Take a Bough?" I came up with this card. The petals were made using the solid tear shaped x-mas ornament from PaperTrey ink. I just stamped it in fours, and then again in fours overlapping the first set. I like how it made a darker shade of pink where the petals overlap. Then for the center of the flower, I used a round x-mas ornament, again from Papertrey ink. The stem is a stitching stamp from a set called "hanging by a thread" by Technique Tuesday. I love how you can manipulate clear stamps to curve. The stitched leaves were from a small set by Autumn Leaves. The Just Because stamps are by PaperTrey ink and the set is called "Paper Trey".

Favor box

I found plain white "favor boxes" at Target in the wedding section of the stationary isle. A box of 50 for $12.99 - that's only 25 cents each! I made this cute favor box by stamping it with a papertrey ink set called "Piece of Cake". I used SU! dye inks and added some sparkly stickers to some of the flowers centers. The green ribbon used is the same color as the leaves - it just doesn't look like it in the scan. Then I added some paper flowers to the top. I think it came out really cute.

Dying to share...

Oh, I am dying to share with you all some cards that I have recently made, but they are for a card contest and so they must wait! I do think that I came up with a pretty neat idea for making some cards that the set wasn't really intended for. I will upload the cards as soon as the winner has been chosen.
