This week at  Tammy's scrapin corner  we have one of your favorite challenge!  It's anything goes!!!!  Yup just perfect before Christmas. We have 2 wonderful sponsors  and  This time I only did 1 card... it's been pretty busy around here with my hubby away for the weekend and Christmas shopping to do etc... For this card I used the fabulous digi 17301 snow scene circle from Eureka. For this card I used paper from Authentique - Peaceful.  I thought it was just perfect for this scene.  And I have to admit that I like the change of pace with some paper that's a bit different from the traditional Christmas colors.  I used my grand scallop circle, scallop circle and classic circle from Spellbinder.  I also used my Memory box snow flake corner to which I added some gems. Here's a closer look at the digi.  I only added a few stickles to it. And here's  a look at the sentiment that I used from  Create with TLC . Somehow I'm pretty sure that t

Hello again ;)  this is my 2nd post for the day... so I might repeat myself again a bit.  This time I'm here to show you a wonderful freebie from  The stamping chef .  She's called Miffy. Well since today is my b-day (as you have read my secret in my previous post).... I felt that I should almost name her vicky ;)  But since I've never been a blonde... this card is not me... but the sentiment was also pretty fitting lol I decided to turn her into a Christmas card.  But she can be used for so many different occasions.  I used paper from American Craft - Hollyday.  I used my Classic Square large from spellbinder and my nesting ovals from Quickuts.  The corner dies are from a new set that I purchased on sale called Frosty forms also from Spellbinder. Here's a closer look at the digi!  I hope I have done her justice.  She's  sooooo cute.  I colored her up with my copics.

A little gift idea

Good Thursday morning everyone!  Hope your week is going well. Here we had news of my father-in-law getting in the hospital... he has water on his lungs.  But at least now he will be treated.  It's been hard for him ever since he lost his wife this summer... so it will be a hard Christmas season on that side.  So I would ask that you keep him in your prayers. Today I decided to share with you a little gift that I prepared for one teacher.  I still have some more of these to do and will post when I'm finished. I wanted to make this little jar of tea light candles more my own and to make it Christmasy... then I realized I had the perfect item to do just that. I used my wonderful Spellbinder circle die and added the beautiful tag Snowman walking tag image to my new tag.  It's a tag that I got as part of the Winter club from  Create with TLC .  Here's a closer look at the tag. I really hope the teachers like their gifts ;) I'm entering this in the fol
