Christmas card for Sketch #20

Hello crafty friends! This is my second post for the day! Love getting things done :) This week at Atlantic Hearts sketch blog this is the supper cute sketch....
I made a Christmas card :) Using retired papers but I wanted to use snowflakes intead of the hearts so this is what I have come up with.....

What do you think?
Used the cricut for the snowflakes and since I have never sewen on a card I just edge distressed the pieces.

I have also entered this card into a "new to me" blog called Here Come The Boys and it is only for masculine/boy cards! What a cool idea!!

Hope you are making your Christmas cards! It has really helped me take some of the stress out of the year by doing them early :)

color my heart # 59

Hello crafty friends!
     This weekend I made a card for the colormy heart dare #59. The dare was to use slate and whisper with another colour. Well I chose black....does that count? I just love the Huntington paper pack!! it is sooo versitile. This is the card I made with it......
I scored the top portion and added the gems. Sweet is embossed for extra blackness (?word L0L)
So what do you think?

Brae'ers Team Blog Hop

Hello crafty friends!
 
     Well its time again for our team's blog hop! If you have come from Kim McArhter's blog then you are in the right place!! This month we will be focusing on the cricut and the art work that they can do!

CTMH now has 3 cartridges with over 700 images in each! they really pack a punch! I have just receive the newest one called "artbooking" and this is the layout I made....


I used Sorbet card stock because it really captured the beautiful sunset! and the paper surfs up was perfect! Luckily you can still get that paper as it has carried over to this idea book on page 55.
I used the overlay on pay 81 and the photo frame from page52 and the words coolin off from page 53. Here is a closeup of the left side......

and now the right side

I also used the workshop on the go stamp set for the sun and the wave :) It may need some more embellishments.....what do you think????
Please continue on the hop to see what Brea's blog to see what she has made.

Thanks for stopping in :)
