Elf Tags & A Tree

A few of my friends were here on Saturday for a little crafting/socializing.  As always, we had a great time and did a lot of sharing.  Cherie brought a tag for each of us to make using MFT Stamps' Santa's Elves stamp set and coordinating dies.  We used a tag from MFT's Tag Builders Blueprints Set 5 (green and red rectangle tag) on which to adhere the little elf.  He was so cute that I stamped a few more of him.  Yesterday I colored the elf images and. made two more tags.  For these tags I  used SU dies, Delicate Ornaments and Layering Squares.  On Saturday, we also made the cute little Christmas Tree box.  The trees  are actually cake slice boxes Cherie created using her Cricut.   Have a great day and keep warm!

Feathers

I was browsing Pinterest yesterday and there were many cards with feathers.  There were many pretty ones, but I do not have one single feather stamp.  So I used what I did have~~feathers that Nipper loses~~to make today's card.  I used Gorgeous Grunge and Timeless Textures stamp sets for the background and Gray and Indigo Blue inks.  The retired corner stamp, silver thread and some pretty sequins completed the card. Have a great weekend and be safe if out and about in the snow!

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!
