My Dear Sweet Belle!


This morning my sweet Belle, passed away!  Such a dear sweet dog.  I have loved her dearly, since she came into my life on the day she turned 6 weeks old.  On January the 27th she would have been 18 years old.  I could not have asked for a better companion and friend.  Forever in my heart and memories!

Creative Card Crew Challenge of Gold and Red!

For my design card for this week, I used this adorable new Saturated Canary stamp that I recently purchased!  Our challenge this week is to use gold and red.  I didn't have any  gold cardstock so I heat embossed stars all over my background with gold embossing powder and then used my swirl cuttlebug embossing folder for some more texture!  My stamp was stamped in momento ink and then colored and shaded with my copics.  Gold ribbon was added for the challenge.  Pearl flat backs were added in the corners.

Our sponsor for this bi-weekly challenge is the Scrapping Cottage!  Check out all of their wonderful supplies!  The winner will receive a credit for some fantastic supplies.

Delightful Challenges Very Blingy and Flurry the Snowman!


My DT project for this week's challenge is a blinged out treat box. I am making several of these adorable little boxes for gifts for the teens in my family!  Loads of room for a handmade pillowcase and a gift card.  (It is very hard to shop for teens!).  I have used Wendy's adorable snowman called Flurry for the centerpiece of my treatbox.  My treatbox was cut out with my eclips cutter.  Just love it because of the scorelines.  My background is matching cardstock that I have embossed with my cuttlebug embossing folder and my sizzex die cut machine.  (I just love my toys!)  Flurry was printed out of my HP printer  on 140# watercolor paper and then colored and shaded with my  Tombow markers!  Crystal lacquer and stickles were added to  his light.  My cardstocks are by DCWV.  Lastly I punched out the snowflakes with a EK punch.

Digital Delight Challenge & New Release Mooey Christmas Set!

For my DT project for this week, I have used one of Digital Delight's adorable new releases called the Mooey Christmas set!  My image was printed out on my HP printer.  I colored and shaded him with my copic markers.  I have been making several of these easy candybar wrappers this Christmas season.  We give money and or gift cards to the teenagers in my extended family and I just love putting them in with a large Hershey bar (one of their favorites!)  My cardstocks are from this years Graphic 45 Christmas line.  I used my cuttlebug swirl embossing envelopes.  (although I have many of them this old standby is one of my favorites.  No bows on this one, as it is going to one of my nephews!

I needed a cookie box for a Thanksgiving gift, so I used one of Wendy's adorable Indians and one of her  adorable Pilgrims for my box.  They were colored and shaded with copics. For the grass I used two different colors of green Bazzill cardstock and my MS grass punch.  My fence is another MS punch (Halloween) punch.   I simply cut off the bats.  I have a old fiscars cloud punch that I used on the background.  I am planning on filling this box  with Thanksgiving cookies to take to our Thanksgiving celebration with family!

Hostess Monday and Christmas Treat Bag Tutorial!

Hello!  I am the Hostess for Digital Delight this Monday!
 
For this week's hostess Monday, I am doing a tutorial on a Christmas Treat Bag!  I hope you like it!
 
 
Supplies Needed:
8 1/2" x 11" Sheet Colored Cardstock
Cardstock scraps for front of box
Edge Punch
Cropadile
Scorer
Scissors
Roll of Sticky Strip Adhesive
Stamps
Ribbon
Joyful Jamie (colored)
 
Magical winter sentiments

 
Step-by-Step Directions:
Step 1
Position cardstock lengthwise. Using scoring bone folder, score cardstock at 2", 5", 7", and 10".

Step 2
Turn cardstock, and score at 2" and 7".

 
 Step 3
Hold cardstock horizontally with the 2" section at the top.
Use scissors to cut off all but one 2" tall section from the top of the cardstock as shown. This will be the flap closure for the box. Make vertical cuts at the bottom to create 1 1/2" tall flaps, and cut off the narrow piece. This will be the bottom of the box. 
 
 
Step 4
Cut the narrow piece at an angle to create tab for adhesive. Apply adhesive strips
Fold scored lines with a bone folder.  Remove top layer of adhesive.
Construct box.  (Add adhesive to all edges of box to adhere flaps
 
 
Step 5
Punch edge of front flap.
Pinch top sides of boxes and bend only top of box to form top of box.
 
 
Step 6
Punch two holes in flap with cropadile through all box layers (or any hole punch)
(I punched a little off even with premarking where to put my holes, but it still looks great when it is all done)

 
Step 7
Thread ribbon through holes on box. Center ribbon. Tie in a knot

Step 8
Decorate front of box with scrap cardstocks and or image of your choice (I used Digital Delights Joyful Jamie for the front  of my  treatbox along with the Magical Christmas Sentiments.  She was colored and shaded with my copics!  I just love coloring her and have used her many times so far for my projects!)
I also used the corner rounder for my corners of my box
 
 
Enjoy filling and giving!
Hugs
Denise
