Believe in Christmas Treat Box!

Here's another little treat box that's perfect to give those special people in your life. This is made using the Curvy Keepsake Box Thinlits Dies. I LOVE this die - you cut two, assemble and you have a cute treat container. This one is full of chocolate - how much chocolate you ask? Well how about 3 miniature candy bars, 3 Rolos and 3 Hershey Kisses!

So Grateful For You - Holiday Home Fall Card

Well officially it's Fall but I'm pretty sure Winter is ready to be here! Man oh man has it gotten so cold...and we are supposed to accumulate snow on Saturday. EEK I'm not sure I'm ready for that!

This is the other card we made for Stamp Club last month using the Holiday Home Stamp Set. The background was made using the Alcohol Marker Marbling Technique. I picked the dark colors in several Blendablitites sets to use. It was a lot of fun.

We then added trees and leaves to it as well. Mossy Meadow, Crushed Curry, and Cajun Craze are the perfect Fall colors. Thanks for stopping by!

Holiday Home Christmas Style

The Holiday Catalog is FULL of wonderful stamp sets and matching dies! For Stamp Club this month we used the Holiday Home Stamp Set & Homemade Holiday Framelits Dies that match to create two cards.

This is one of my favorites as I'm a sucker for Winter scenes and Christmas. We used the 2" circle punch to create the opening and then placed our home on the front. The home is all decked out for the holiday. I used the bare trees on my card but most of the ladies put Evergreen trees (also included in the stamp set) on their card. The snowflakes are stamped using Craft Stampin' Ink pad.

On the inside of the card we lined up another house and the second part of the sentiment. It turned out so cute! The girls really liked it.
Have you started making your Christmas Cards yet? I don't just make one card - I make many cards and like 5 or so of each. That way I don't get bored and I have a nice variety to send to friends and family! Whatever you decide to do you might want to get started as there are only 47 more days till Christmas arrives :D

Grateful For You!

Thanks to everyone that stopped by my blog this weekend for Inking Everything's Team Blog Hop. We had creations on both our blog and our Facebook Page. These were the creations I made for my Facebook Page.

I LOVE the Curvy Keepsake Box Thinlits Die to make these wonderful Pumpkins. I stamped them using Gorgeous Grunge for some "texture". The leaves were cut using the Fun Fall Framelits Dies. Each pumpkin is filled with miniature candy bars and Rolos. It holds quite a lot :D

The tag was easy to make with the Merry Everything Bundle - Stamp Set & matching Note Tag Punch. LOVE how I can create tags so easy - and for many occasions too!

Inking Everything's Happy Fall Blog Hop

Welcome to Inking Everything's very first blog hop! You should have arrived here from Carla's Blog. If you didn't you may want to start from the beginning (list is at the end of this post) so that you make sure to see all the fabulous Fall creations!

Not only are we showing Fall creations on our blogs but we also have another creation on our Facebook pages. So make sure you visit both to get double the fun!

For my creation I decided to make a Fall card using the stamp set For All Things.

I choose my colors based on the Designer Series Paper Pack Color Me Autumn. I've been wanting to use the leaf in the stamp set to make a background.

I used watercolor paper, various inks, Stampin' Spritzer and water. I inked the stamp and then spritzed water directly on the stamp before stamping on the paper. Here is a close up of the background leaves:

You can see my other creation on my Facebook Page HERE.
Next stop on the blog hop is Penny Smiley. You can visit her Stamps N Smiles Blog and Facebook Page. Below you will find a list of all the blog participants with their blog addresses and their Facebook Page. Be sure to visit them all...you may want to start at the beginning to make sure you don't miss anyone :D Thanks for stopping by!! Happy Fall! Michelle

Looking A Little Like Christmas

I love it when an everyday stamp set can be used for other purposes. The leaves are from Choose Happiness Stamp Set. But when paired with a Christmas Sentiment (Endless Wishes) it has a whole new look. The "berries" are pearls that I painted using my Cherry Cobbler Blendabilities. LOVE that you can make them match perfectly by using the Blendabilities.
