Good Friday it is...
I see I have a few new followers, thanks for coming...
the Hot Chocolate Hop was so fun, don't you think?

Well today I have a new design team project and tutorial for 
Mark's Finest Papers a Heinrich co

the challenge is .....
Make a Party Hat for a card...
the tutorial can be found here
it's pretty easy once you see the foundation of the card...

for my card I used my Cameo to cut the card base
I created the cut file in Silhouette Studio Designer Edition
(if I knew how to share a file I would be happy to share this one...
so if you are interested, leave me a comment with an email)


too cute, huh...
I had my little niece in my mind the entire time I was making it...good thing her
birthday is in the near future...heehee

I used a Lori Whitlock rosette file from the Silhouette store for the top...
added a button and some twine...
there you have a Party Hat Card....

Now for you to join in the challenge/fun...
add your party hat card to the TTOSTV challenge 27

Chalk N Stock DT inspiration...

Hey if your here if the Hot Chocolate blog hop...
Please click here... 
oh and thanks for stopping by...

Now on to my inspiring chalk n stock card...
Shop until you Drop

This card was kind of fun to put together...
I used the digi stamp from Bugaboo...
colored with my Spectrum Noir alcohol markers
and added star dust chalk to the white areas of her dress and hat...
and used sunshine color chalk to color in her hair...
I love how chalks can give such a nice color to your image without
making it 'too' much color...I highlighted the hair with an alcohol marker...
too cute huh...
oh yeah I used the marker tool by Amy Chomas with my Cameo for the 
"Show until you Drop" sentiment...

Well go Shop until you Drop...only a few more days of shopping for 
Christmas...

Remember  Chalk N Stock will be running this months
challenge for the WHOLE month of December...so you have lots of time to get your 
chalk projects link'd up...

until next time...
Happy Chalk'n

Hot Chocolate Blog Hop..come hop with me...


Hot cocoa on a cold winter's night will warm us through and through and fill us with delight. That is what we hope this hop will do for you so grab a cup of cocoa and start hopping along.
 Jearise from Lorbys World is our hostess and she has a special give away on her blog so make sure you start there to see what she has and how to qualify for the drawing.
 Let's get warmed up here...
I made this darling little mug gift for I am not sure who but it's sure cute...


not sure where I got the cut file from a while back, so sorry for not giving a link to it...and credit of course...so I took 2 designer papers and used Heat n Bond to bond them together...
then I cut the file using my Cameo die cut machine... I took the sewing machine to the edges of the cup
...wish I would have used a darker thread but I did not...I don't sew ... lol
then I added my little 'cool whip topping' that I made last year for my little pumpkin pie I did...
that wraps it up...lol...what a fun and simple gift ... now maybe I will give it to the boss man...heehee shhhh don't tell....
 Thank you for hopping and please continue on to...Anita

Yippy it's FRIDAY...TTOSTV time...

Would you like to win this stamp set by Mark's Finest Papers a Heinrich co?


Well you can. Just enter this week's challenge over at 
an online community of stampers and crafters...
lots of fun and inspiring ideas...

This weeks challenge is to make a luminaire...
our design team member Davi gave us a great tutorial to follow with
3 different ways of making a luminaire.
I did mine just a bit different then what her tutorial outlined...
always got to be out side the box...lol


what do you think? kind of cool huh...
I used the Holly Jolly Greetings stamp set by MFPaHc
some vellum, and here is the trick to my luminaire...a older style
Chrystal Light container...I love to keep little containers for occasions like this...
I stamped the images on to the vellum, both on the inside and outside of the vellum,
I wanted it to have different 'layer's to the opacity of the light...
I punched a few holes in the top of my container with my Crop a dial...
cut some white vinyl with my cameo to make some pretty snowflakes
Then colored my snowman from the 'inside' of the vellum before adding it to the container...
then added a tea light, (one of those led batteries tea lights)...

Now it's your turn, I would love to see what you can do with this challenge...

Happy Craft'n
