Little Red Wagon Challenge #425 ~ That's A Wrap

Good morning.  A new challenge starts today at Little Red Wagon.  Our hostess is Sandy and she's calling it "THAT'S A WRAP".  She wants to see gifts, ribbon or bows on your projects.

I used a retired stamp from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps called Giftwrap Elf and coloured her with Copic markers.  Her ribbon and bow are paper pieced with Lawn Fawn Knit Picky.  All other patterned paper is also from that pad.  Die cuts are Spellbinders Nestabilities and Your Next Stamp.  Embellishments are Your Next Stamp gumdrops in Holly Jolly Sparkly.  Inside sentiment is once again Kraftin' Kimmie Shake It Up.

So now that you have wrapped up looking at this project, why not head over to Little Red Wagon and see what the other girlfriends have wrapped up for you and add a project of your own to the link up.

Have a great day.  I am hoping to be back with one more post before Christmas but if life gets in the way I want to wish you all a very Merry Christmas with family and friends.  I cherish each one of my faithful followers and readers who come to see what I have created every week. Your comments and visits always make me smile.

Little Red Wagon Challenge #424 ~ Holiday Friends

Good Morning.  We are just getting closer and closer to the end of the year and the holidays so quickly.  We begin a new challenge today at Little Red Wagon.  Our hostess is Kate and she wants to see holiday friends or critters on your projects.

This card is fairly CAS and actually came to me in the middle of the night.  It did turn out better than the one in my head :))  Stamp and sentiment are from Your Next Stamp Merry Mouse Set One.  The mouse is coloured with Copics and the big turquoise bow is accented with Glossy Accents.  Plaid paper is Lawn Fawn.  Tag is cut from Your Next Stamp Fishtale and Banner Dies.  Ribbon is from my stash.

You know what to do if you want to join us.  Head to the Little Red Wagon blog, check out the other projects by the amazing girlfriends and link up a holiday critter project of your own.  Can't wait to see.

Have a great Wednesday!!!

Special Wedding Wishes

Welcome back.  Today I have a special card that I want to share with you.  It is a custom order for a co-worker whose son was married yesterday actually.  I was honoured to make it for her.  Her son's fiancee's heritage is Chinese and I know they are also having a traditional wedding in China next Spring.  I did a little research and found out that the Chinese wedding colours are red and gold.  I used them as the basis for my card.

Image is Tiddly Inks Forever Yours.  Gold paper is Kaiserkraft.  Mr. and Mrs. sentiment and tag are Stampin' Up Label Love.  Gold stickles and red gum drops are the embellishments.

Congratulations to the newlyweds.

Thanks for coming by once again..  Have a great weekend!!

Little Red Wagon Challenge #423 ~ Holiday tags/Gift Card Holders

Good morning.  Today starts a  brand new challenge at Little Red Wagon.  Our hostess today is Sandy and she wants to see holiday tags or gift card holders.  If you still have holiday creations to make, this should help get some done.

I made a set of gift card holders that are also tags.  They were made with the envelope maker by We Are Memory Keepers.  I made a 3" x 3" envelope and only scored three of the sides leaving the flap not scored and punching a hole in the top.  All four penguin images are from various sets of Lawn Fawn stamps.  Patterned paper is also Lawn Fawn.  Sentiments are from a couple of retired Kraftin' Kimmie sets.

With a gift card enclosed:

So you know what to do ~ head on over to Little Red Wagon, check out the inspiration from the other girlfriends and link up a holiday tag or gift card holder of your own.  And check one more project off of your list.

Thanks for dropping by.  See you soon!!
