Graphic 45 Christmas Emporium Mini Tree Album




 All of the paper I used is from the new Graphic 45 Christmas Emporium. The laces trims are all from my stash and all have various manufacturers. The solid color cardstocks are from Core'Dnations. I used my Sizzix envelope with ornate flap die to create the little pockets. All of the tags and chip tags are from the collection. There is a variety of flowers ranging from Petaloo to Prima and all of them have been stained with Lindy's Stamp Gang, Poinsettia Red Gold and Ponderosa Pine Green. I used Tim Holtz distress ink in Fired Brick to edge all the pages and give them a little more depth. I really enjoyed making this and I am sure that there are some embellishments I am forgetting to list, so if you have any questions let me know!!!! Hope everyone enjoys my projects!

Thursday "Card" Day #3 (even though it's really Friday)

 This cute little easel Halloween card I made is one of the more basic cards I have made in quite a while, and let me tell you it felt pretty good to get back to the "basics"! The lil' jar and candy stamps are Close To My Heart from a set called Joyful Jar. There are a bunch of sentiments and other little goodies you can fill the jar with for other Holidays. I colored the candies and jar lid with my copics and if you want to now the colors let me know and I will be happy to post them! The sentiment on the top portion is from Close to My Heart October Word Puzzle and the "Happy Halloween" is from Tim Holtz. All of the black ink is Memento Tuxedo Black and all of the paper is from Kelly Pannaci's Halloween from K&company!



I am absolutely in love with My Favorite Things (MFT) little girl Pure Innocence (P.I.), she is so fun to color up with my copics and so stinking cute to boot! The set is called Lollipop Girl and comes with several other cute sentiments besides the ones I used. All of the paper I used excluding the kraft base of the card is Watercolors from K&Company and I believe the kraft is Bazzill. The flowers are an assortment from Petaloo, SA Crafter (www.sacrafter.zibbit.com), Recollections, and Wild Orchid Crafts (www.wildorchidcrafts.com). There are two different Spellbinder sets I used, Ribbon Banners and one by Samantha Walker. I also used my Martha Stewart eyelet lace border punch to finish off the inside. This little card is one of my best in my opinion, i hope you like it too!! Don't forget to subscribe and comment!!!
