Penny's Holiday Gifts Challenge

This week at Penny's Paper Challenge, the challenge is "Holiday Gifts". We used these cute images from DigiDarla to create our projects. I used a snowflake Martha Stewart border punch on some red bazzill cardstock to make my stripes. I inked some grungeboard snowflakes for my accents and then used rhinestones and stickles in a few places for some sparkle. I love that stuff!


Make sure you go and visit the Penny's Paper Challenge blog and see all the wonderful design team talent and enter your project for a chance to win some great digital images from our sponsor this week!

I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas season!

CTO Christmas Shape Card/DT Call

I have totally enjoyed being on this awesome design team, and now it's time to submit my last Design Team entry to Celebrate the Occasion. For the challenge this week, we are making Christmas cards, but they have to be in a different shape. I chose this great ornament from the Cricut Close to My Heart Art Philosophy cart. Then I just stamped the corresponding image and added some sparkle with stickles, pearls, and ribbon.

I found the perfect sentiment and my card was done!

Thankful Thursday Layout Challenge

At Crazy About Cricut this week, we're having a layout challenge! I took my pictures from last year's Christmas and made this layout "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year." It seems like I'm hearing that song everywhere lately, so I thought it would be a good title for the layout too :) I cut the tree and packages out with my Cricut and used a little bling. I love remembering the looks on my kids' faces on Christmas morning, it really is the most wonderful time of the year!

Now make sure and go over to Crazy About Cricut and check out all the awesome Design Team projects and enter your fun family project!

Have a great day!

Penny's Christmas Challenge

At Penny's Paper Challenge blog this week, we have a Christmas challenge and we had the opportunity to use these adorable images from Digi My World. I loved this little girl peeking out from behind the snowman. Then I saw this "snowball" trim at the fabric store and I just had to get it!
