SPCC Challenge

SPCC #27 has a fantastic challenge this week that fir right into what I needed to do for the new year. I etched a picture frame with 2010 (bottom right hand corner) from the Graphically Speaking Cartridge. The clock face and hands are from Wild Card. Cardstock stickers are from Scrappin' Sports and More and the fibers are from EK Success called Tonal Adornments. I used three of the seven fibers in the pack. I attached one on the outside of the frame because a corner of the glass broke and I wanted to hide the crack. It ended up looking like New Years Eve fireworks! There is room for journaling your resolutions or you could put a small before pic there of the ever popular lose weight resolution. I also added some silver star brads to coordinate with the embellishments from Me & My Big Ideas New Years soft spoken pack.

SPCC Challenge

The challenge this week was to use violet, red and white. I used this cute snowman off the Hello Kitty Greetings as my inspiration. He is cut at 4" with all the layers. The script words are from Winter Woodland. Snowy cut at 1 1/2" and greetings cut at 1". Oh I need to dust. ;^}

Blinged Picture Frame

I needed a Christmas gift and a picture frame is always nice. So I personalized slightly, "Family", and added some bling with vinyl, gemstones, ribbon, and glitter swirls from making memories. The vinyl, gemstones and swirls are on the outside of the frame. I used paper from Me and My Big Ideas and followed the color scheme at SPCC. They always have great challenges. I love the way it turned out. I think I'll have to make another.

Win a Gypsy

Can you imagine? How cool would that be? I would love to have a Gypsy but it is not quite in the budget. To win would be awesome. Try your luck here.

I am Thankful

Regina at Bitten by the Bug has a great challenge to create something for the almost forgotten holiday of Thanksgiving. I made Thanksgiving place cards. Each has a different Thanksgiving quote inside and a napkin ring holder. We don't do names for each spot but each person this year will have to read their quote. The pattern paper is from Basic Grey Indian Summer. The leaf cuts are from A Child's Year p.37. The pilgrim hat, feathers and Indian headdress are from Paper Doll Dress Up (Headwear) all cut at real dial size. Ribbons from my stash.
