Nipper Colors

I did not have anything ready to post today.  So, you get
to see a couple photos of Nipper when his drinking water plate became a bird bath one morning.  He has many different colors of blues and grays.  And when he is all fluffed up he looks even cuter than always!  Have a great day and stay warm.

Christmas Bear

I have used this bear image for baby cards and when I saw the bear used for a Christmas card, I had to try it.  The bear is a three step stamp, but I stopped after two steps so I didn't mess up another one~~lol!!  The sentiment is from the Embellished Ornaments stamp set and is the perfect sentiment for this card for John's Mom.  She lives in Arizona and we will be thinking of her at Christmas, as we do always.  I used the Layering Square Framelits collection for the red and white scalloped squares.  After die cutting "Mom" and adhering the letters to the card, I brushed Wink of Stella clear glitter over the letters, the bow and his cute little nose! Keep warm and have a great day!

Circle Ornaments

Last year, I made Christmas cards using the Embellished Ornaments stamp set and the coordinating dies, Delicate Ornaments.   They were very pretty.  While playing in my scrap room yesterday,  I decided to make ornament cards using circle framelits for the ornaments together with the ornament hanger/top from the Delicate Ornaments Thinlets.  .First I made the larger ornaments card and thought maybe the ornaments were a little too big.  So I used a smaller circle for the second card.  I think they are a little too small.  Next time, I will use a circle die in between!  Either way, they are both pretty cards and the glittery ornament tops add much to the card.  Have a great day and find yourself a little stampin' time!

Christmas Nuggets


Yesterday was Cricut Sunday and I made these favors for the girls.  These are the easiest to make and dress up with any paper, twine, ribbon, netting, etc.  I wrapped Hershey Nuggets in Candy Cane Lane DSP, made a little red cardstock tray to put them on and slipped them into the 2" x 8" cellophane bags.  I closed the bag using sparkly twine and ribbon and added a little tag.  The top of the cello bag was trimmed down  and I had this festive treat to give my friends.  Have a great day!
