December TCP Tuesday-Signed, Sealed, Delivered

This month's The Cat's Pajamas Tuesday Challenge is called Signed, Sealed, Delivered, and we were to make a gift to give this holiday season.


I decided to make a gift for someone special to me, who loves snowmen. The Let the Flakes Fly set was PEFECT for creating my gift!!


I started by creating a gift back using my Let the Flakes Fly set, and the Celebration Toppers Cut Ups. I used some MME Winter Wonderland paper, paired with MFT Cardstock in Smooth White, Electric Red, Sour Apple, and Berrylicious. I added buttons in Sweet Tooth and Berrylicious, with Hemp Cord tied through them. To finish, I used Michael's brads, and Sweet Tooth grosgrain to finish.


My tags were created using the same cardstock, stamps, and cut ups, but I added a Sweet Tooth ribbon hanger, and covered it with another piece of cardstock to keep it secure. 

I hope she likes them!!

Now it's your turn!  Do you have an idea for a quick or even not so quick gift??  We'd love to see it - and you could win this month's Swanky Stamper title just for sharing your fab idea!!  

Visit us on the TCP blog and in the TCP Member Forum at SCS!  Have a great day!

For my card today, I used the SUPER cute set, Go With The Flow set from Kraftin' Kimmie. My cardstock colors are Bubblegum, Berrylicious, Gumpdrop Green, and Smooth White. I paired these with the Merry Little Christmas paper pad from MME. For embellishments, I used Bubblegum, Gumdrop Green, and Berrylicious buttons from MFT. My twine is hemp cord from MFT. I also used silver brads from Michael's, and a spiral clip from Creative Express.  I did follow this week's Deconstructed Sketch for my layout. Love it!!

Well, that is it for me for now! Thanks for stopping by and have a great day! Hop over to the KKS Challenge blog to see MORE inspiration from our wonderful Krafty Girls and Guests! Then join us for all the fun!

TCP Tuesday-Peace, Joy, & Penguins

It's time for a new The Cat's Pajama's challenge, and the November TCP Tuesday Challenge is  to make one card. Then, with the supplies and papers on your desk, make two more cards. 


Here is the set of cards I made using only supplies that were on my desk...I tend to clean between projects, but I did the best with what I had!!


I used the SUPER cute new Peace, Joy, & Penguins stamp set.


My cardstock colors are Bubblegum, Berrylicious, Gumpdrop Green, Smooth White, and Electric Red. I paired these with the Merry Little Christmas paper pad from MME. 

For embellishments, I used Bubblegum, Gumdrop Green, and Berrylicious buttons from MFT. My twine is hemp cord from MFT, and some red twine. I also used silver brads from Michael's, and spiral clips from Creative Express. Either Berrylicious or Bubblegum ribbon was used on my card's as well. It's a good thing I get out all the matching colors before I start making a card, that gave me lots of embellishment options.

C4C210 It's Not All Black and White...

This week's challenge at the Crazy 4 Challenges blog is to make a card using black, white, and one more color. I decided to go clean and simple, and since I was just NOT ready to let go of Halloween, I used a Halloween color scheme, but didn't end up making a Halloween card...I'm a connumdrum. I also did this for the TSG weekly challenge, to use leaves...hey, leaf dies count!!

So, for my card, I used the GORGEOUS Henna Swirls set from There She Goes, and paired it with a sentiment from the new Happy Fall set from There She Goes. My flowers were stamped on Smooth White cardstock, and then colored with Copics. I used some MME Happy Haunting paper, which I paired with Orange Fizz, and Black Licorice cardstock. My ribbon is MFT Orange Grosgrain, I used Michael's brads, and my leafy flourishes were cut from the MFT Leaf Filled Flourish Die-namics.

Well, that is it for me for now! Thanks for stopping by, and have a great day. Be sure to check out the other girls playing along on the C4C blog, and then check out the There She Goes blog to play along there, too.
