Every Day Christmas Card Challenge #15

If you click on the close up of this photo you can almost see the embossing on the transparency of this card.  I took the transparency and ran it through my Sizzix Big Shot using a snowflakes embossing folder.  Then I added the acetate snowflakes from Heidi Swapp and the rub-on letters and the ribbon from Making Memories.  The paper and chipboard accents are from Imaginesce.  The brad is from a swap, and I took the ends off of it and attached it with a small foam dot.

Sorry for the brief description.  It was a long day, and I need to feed everyone around here.

Decopage Challenge

I did three items for the decoupage challenge. Two composition books, and one radio belt clip for work.

The floral book is covered in SEI papers, with mixed fibers, and chipboard accents.

The boxer book is covered with Boxer Photos from one of my calendars I purchased a few years ago. I think it was made by Brown Trout Publications. I cut ou the day-to-day picutes, and assembled in a hodge podge fashion around the notebook. I added chipboard accents, flowers, tabs, and ribbons to decorate it up more.

I don't recommend the tabs. They crease and scrunch too quickly. I know technical terms there).

Enjoy!

Lassen Layout

Lassen Park

Wow, it is hard to believe these pictures were taken in 1998! They are three of my husband's all time favorite photos.

The patterned papers are from We R Memory Keepers. The solid cardstock is from Die Cuts with a View. The buttons are from my great-granny and granny's button boxes. The butterfly stickers are from K & Company. The letters are Thickers chalked with a Cat's Eye in lime green. The chipboard/matboard pieces are from various sources.

All of these photos were taken at Lassen Volcanic National Park near Shingletown, California. My "hometown" so to speak. We took the kids there during their first official stay with us in California. There was snow on the ground still near King Creek. The photos overlooking the mountain ranger were taken at over 8,000 ft. above sea level.

I hope you enjoy these layouts!
