Christmas

I'm sorry for not posting in a while, the holidays have been crazy hectic! I did want to get on here real quick and post some pictures of the project I did for about 6 months as a Christmas present for my boyfriend's family. I used the 7 Gypsies Printer Tray that I purchased from Archiver's.

As you can see I made NINE of these! LOL let's just say I won't being getting myself into huge projects like that for a while!

They all had the same photographs, but the embellishments were slightly different from tray to tray. The keys were from 7 Gypsies. The ornate metal plates and metal corners ( they're on opposite corners of each tray) were all Tim Holtz products from the idea-ology line. Most of the papers were from The Paper Company Studio's Ancestral line. The family stamp is a Stampabilities stamp I bought at Hobby Lobby (probably one of my favorite stores and most dangerous on the bank account! LOL)

Here are a few close-ups of the trays:

Christmas Decorations

Hi There!

So I've been trying to complete too much stuff before Christmas! I'm quite further behind in my card making than I had imagined I would be, plus I'm trying to work on a rather cute decoration that I discovered in one of my favorite magazines, Scrapbooks Etc. It is a cute paper tree table decoration. Here's a direct link to the instructions. Then to top it all off, I've been working for many months now on a huge project that I plan to give as a Christmas gift to my boyfriend's family. I would elaborate more, but I've been able to keep it a secret this long so I'm going to hopefully keep it that way! LOL!

I hope to post pictures of all these projects as soon as I get them done! I will also try to post some free card SVGs so that anyone who uses Sure Cuts A Lot can also make some cute cards!

Happy Crafting!
