Hana's Birthday Day Card!

Today is my niece Hana's birthday.  14 years ago I assisted my sister with her birth.  Cindy went into labor just before midnight on Christmas Day and I spent all day on my birthday laboring with her.  Unfortunately, Hana didn't emerge until a couple of hours into the 27th! So we don't share a birthday but still the most special birthday I ever had!

Digital Dad Xmas Present: Ugly Christmas Sweater

 
I created this digital project for my boyfriend's dad's Christmas gift.  I used Peppermint Creative's Ugly Christmas Sweater kit.  It just happen to free one day just before Christmas, bonus!!  The patterns were great for the pictures from the 70's.  I spent a quite few hours scanning, a true labour of love of the family preservationist.  I also used a Creative Memories overlay from Wishful on the left hand side and sampled a color from the page in Storybook Creator 4.0.

Creative Memories Noel Digital Layout

I made this digital layout to frame for one of my grandmothers for a Christmas gift.  I started with a Primary Christmas Predesigned Page for four pictures using the orientation I needed.   I used the Creative Memories Noel Digital Kit and the Noel Digital Embellishments to replace the primary paper and embellishments.  I used a Winter Frost overlay and changed the color and opacity.  The quote was a Creative Memories freebie.

I used cuts of the velvet paper to accent the layout.  Miscellaneous buttons and  fabric leaf.

Kraft-y Christmas Cards!

I used Kraft paper and kraft paper colored cardstock to create this rustic Christmas card.  I also used this awesome paper from EK success's Color Sense System.  The color is zucchini/spruce, it is a double sided gorgeous paper, this is the dark side.  I used an old, I mean old corner rounder only the second one I owned on the corners and kept the stars and used the Creative Memories Precision Point Glue Pen to adhere them randomly.  I used kraft colored raffia ribbon.  I embossed the trees and quotes in an iridescent green you can't quite see the detail here.  The patterned green paper is old stock from Creative Memories.  I popped up the quotes on pop dots.
