Rock n Roll !

I gave my DD (Megan - almost 15) an early Christmas present... a ticket (to go with us) to see AC/DC in concert. How we kept it a secret for two months is beyond belief. Even her little brother didn't spill the beans!

Anyhoo, I let her open one gift "early" and here it is. I made her a PAPER BAG BOOK in which the tickets were tucked in the flap of the last page. SHE LOVED IT! Almost as much as she loved the concert....














Nevermind I couldn't hear much out of my left ear for three days after the show, or that there will probably always be slight ringing there, too. I have seen MANY concerts (ok, mostly back in the 70s) but this show was BY FAR the best rock n roll concert I have ever witnessed. Let there be rock, indeed!

Altered wood frame

Unfinished wood frame becomes cute gift for anyone!

Snowman candle

I guess I'm just in the mood for some COLD weather here in Florida with all these snowmen!

Stamped on tissue paper, colored with markers, wrapped tightly with wax paper while "melting" to candle with heat gun...


And here's another cute little snowman ornament made from the leftover tins from my Advent calendar. I just love those little snowman in the Snow Friends stamp set from CTMH...

Altered notebook & pen

Got this mini notebook at Target. Covererd it with some DP paper using Mod Podge. Added some ribbon, snowflakes and monogram. The pen is Pentel RSVP - you just unscrew the bottom, roll up your matching paper, stick it in and wallah, matching set...


















Paper - DCWV
Snowflake punch - Paper Shapers
"K"- DCWV Christmas Letters
Ribbon/rhinestones - unknown

Snowman Glitter Ornament

This is made with red re-inker and prisma glitter. I added a cute little snowman rub-on for fun! I am hoping to make lots more as I have many rub-ons to use up...

Advent Calendar

Saw this on SCS and HAD to try it - how fun! Made one for my SIL and one for US. My kids will never be too old for TREATS - lol! It was a bit time consuming, but I love it!

Used lots of DCWV paper stack, various 3-D embellies and stickers, Cricut and CTMH paper for title, wedding favor tins. (16x20 canvas)


Black and GREEN!

My very favorite color is LIME green. Love to pair it with black (and red). Here is a little book made from 4x4 inch coasters, using my BIA (Bind-It-All):


CTMH: Silhouette papers, Soulmates Word Puzzle (the hearts are embossed)
Cuttlebug swirls embossing folder
Misc ribbon, flower and bling








And a card - black and white with "POP" of color...








CTMH: With Love (June SOTM), Solo T, Citrus Leaf and Black ink and cardstock

Misc: Ribbon, dots
