Hi Welcome to my Blog!! I apologize for the delay in getting this post up!! If you scroll down you will see a list of all the wonderfully talented women who are sharing their blogs with you today!! I must admit that I am very nervous about this - this is my first time!!
I thought it appropriate that I share with you the weather outside my window at this moment!! Tis is the Season for a lot of things......in Minnesota tis is the Season for snow.........
The following project was a lot of fun to do.......I wanted to make a NOEL sign to put on my entertainment center for the holidays. This is what I came up with.......
I started with wooden letters that I painted with acrylic paints. I traced the letters onto papers from the DCWV from the Christmas Ultimate scrapbook kit stack from a couple of years ago! There are so many papers in this stack!!!! I cut out each letter and then applied it to the painted letter using modpodge glue. I sanded around the edges and inked the edges with the acrylic paints. Using a glue gun I adhered the little holly berries and the gold holly leaves. Here are the close ups of each letter.......
The next project is my Christmas card ----- okay one of my Christmas card designs. I do need to do about three more dozen but time has eluded me so far.
The card was designed on my Gypsy - I absolutely paper crafting with "Rose". With Rose I am able to design my card and mass produce it!! With this design I made 24 cards. The cartridge I used for the snow man is Snow Friends - it is such an adorable card!! The red paper is from Bazzill and the patterned paper is from the DCWV Christmas stack. I hope you like it!!!!
