Snowflake Soiree meets Expressions Thinlits

Monday has come around again and over the weekend I had an awful cold and the worst part about that was the Headache! Oh my goodness is was a shocker, I think it was sinus problems but thankfully this morning I am feeling so much better

I have a really cool card to share today.... it makes me feel cool just looking at it, I used Snowflake Soiree a carry over stamp set from last year's catalogue and the Expression Thinlits and lots of Jewel bling

I cut the Thinlit a few times and stuck it together to make the depth and cut from my stamped piece and added it to the top 

Here is a closer look

Have a great Monday

Until next time ......be crafty .....

Snowflake Soiree and Season of Style

First of all I have to tell you about my awful dream last night! To say I was scared is an understatement.... I don't know what I had to eat to make me dream that way? I just know I woke up and was in an awful panic... I was in some sort of hospital the sheets were all dark and dingy (don't ask why I remember that as I have no clue) and the doctors were trying to put the thing that you have in the back of your hand when having an operation? can't think of the name of it? the plan was to take all of my blood and I was letting them!!! It seemed to go on for ages and both my hands were black and blue with bruises.  I know that blood isn't taken this way and I was struggling to speak to ask why they were doing it this way?  They got the thingee in my hand eventually and I was drifting off in the dream to nowhere, that's when I started struggling to wake up!! but thankfully I did.  I was in a bit of a panic at first, I was talking outloud saying "just breathe, just breathe" the thought of sleep after that was a no go area......

I think I could write a book on my dreams they are always so clear and seem so real, I had a lovely dream a few years ago and remember writing about it here, it was where I got the biggest pot of Dazzling Diamonds off Dawn Griffiths a US Stampin' Up! demonstrator!!! now that's the kind of dream I like!

here is today's sneak peak from the Autumn/Winter catalogue and a stamp from the Carry Over list; the Merry sentiment is from Snowflake Soiree.

the paper is a 48 page stack called Season of Style, great value for money

I used the new Chevron Border punch at the bottom and the 1" Cherry Cobbler ribbon is so soft and luxurious

here is what I did with some of the punched out chevrons on the inside of the card

I have a class today so off to sort that out

Until next time ........... happy day dreaming!

Scallop Circle die box and tags

I thought I had more than enough tags for Christmas but .......

I made one of these scallop circle box's during Sale a Bration earlier this year and I have to say this one was a lot easier..... Why? because I used the Stampin' Up! 3.5 and 3! circle dies ......

I cut some chipboard for the top and bottom of the box with the scallop circle die and covered them with Be of Good Cheer designer paper then made the rosettes with the Bigz Rosette die

I love the little one on top so sweet

Here is the box open with a box full of tags that I die cut with the 3" circle die and stamped with the Merry from Snowflake Soiree and the branch from Hoepful Thoughts

all tied off with Cherry Cobbler sweater trim

a stamped and punched bauble from Merry Minis and the punch pack

Any questions......... let me know

Until next time .........

Snow flurry Northern flurry and Snowflake Soiree

During one of my classes at the weekend hubby was mentioned quite a bit from this post and I got to talking about this post that I think was just as funny, if you want a giggle go take a look.

I think the title says it all for my card today all the Stampin' Up products used are:

Snow Flurry die

Northern Flurry embossing folder

Snowflake Soiree stamp set

and of course Rhinestone jewels and Silver glimmer paper

a close up

It's my Wedding anniversary today and I'm looking forward to a yummy dinner with hubby tonight.

Until next time ........ have a great day!
