Be Merry Card

October 10, 2016

Hi everyone! I back with a Christmas card I had created this past Summer…I have shared these sporadically the last couple of month…and this is the last of that batch. I am sure I will be creating more later on. 
I folded a 6″x6″ piece of cardstock from the Lost and Found Christmas Collection from My Mind’s Eye in half to create a base for my card. I cut a piece of gold glitter cardstock to frame the Scalloped Rectangle from Spellbinders and adhered to the front of the card.

The “M” I found at Hobby Lobby on clearance. I painted it white and once dry applied adhesive and sprinkled with glitter.

I cut Be Merry from the same paper collection, punched two small holly leaves which I shaped and adhered to the bottom corner of the “M”. I finished the card off with a little red gem.

I am also submitting this card for the following challenge:

As always if you have any questions about this project please let me know.

Thanks for stopping by, hope your day is awesome and enjoy creating!

C is for Christmas Card

September 21, 2016

Hi everyone! Can you believe tomorrow is the first day of Autumn? Well, we are still having temperatures in the 90’s and upper 80’s so it definitely doesn’t feel like Fall. It makes me want to go for a swim in my pool. B-) Anyways…I had shared three Christmas cards in July and never got around to share the other three so I am here to share one of the cards with you today. 🙂
I folded cardstock from the Lost and Found Christmas Collection to create a 3″x6″ card base. Next I cut gold cardstock to frame a Long Classic Scalloped diecut from Spellbinders that I cut from patterned cardstock.

I punched out a holly leaf and flowers to create a poinsettia and I finished off with a gold sequin.

The letter “C’ I found on clearance at Hobby Lobby. I painted it an off white and once dry I added clear glitter and last but not least I cut from the paper collection a sentiment and framed it with a banner. As always if you have any questions please let me know.

Thanks for stopping by, hope your day is wonderful and enjoy creating!

Canvas Corp: DIY Water Basin Stand

July 28, 2016

Hi everyone! I have a water basin stand that had seen better days. It had a cracker in the wood where the bowl and pitcher would be placed so after using a little wood filler and replacing the towel holders with new dowels and taping off around the mirror I was ready to paint.
