More Christmas Crafting.

A very good friend of mine loaned me her Hello Kitty Cricut Cartridge so that I could make a banner for my Granddaughter's upcoming birthday.  Thank you Betty!   I tried to buy my own but they are so unbelievably expensive now!  While I was looking at the images I saw that they had Hello Kitty Christmas images.  So, I tried them out on a few note pads that had been sitting on my desk for over a year!  LOL.  They turned out pretty cute.


These will make great stocking stuffers.

Wrapped up some luxury soap and decorated them with Hello Kitty too.  I think I will add more tulle to the top to make it bit more colorful and fuller. My granddaughters will love these.

Christmas Crafting.

I love vintage cards especially vintage Christmas cards.  I printed some images I have found here and there and decided to make some ornaments with them.  I think they came out very nice.  Actually I think I will make more and use them as embellishments on my Christmas packages.  It will be a nice change from using store bought bows!

Still working on Halloween

I am still working on Halloween cards for my Etsy shop.  Here are a few more.

 
This card uses DCWV Halloween paper and I cut the house with my Cricket and one of my Halloween Cartridges.  I think it was Scary Chic.  I glittered it up added some PTI cut clouds, seam binding and a button.  I stamped the button with a tiny spider from a Crafty Secret Halloween Stamps set and added a PTI tag and sentiment.  I airbrushed the tag with my Copics.
 


I wasn’t sure where I was going with this card.  I applied the DCWV Halloween paper to my card base just liked the paper so much, and then got stuck!  So I happened to have a few embellishments left over from another card I made and decided to make use of them.  This is how the card ended up.  Very simple but nice, I think.
