Welcome to my blog and welcome to November. And WOW!!! Christmas is getting so close.
I'll bet you still have presents to wrap and cards to make and get out. I know I do!!! I have some great ideas for you that will be a great time saver. But first...................
A new challenge has begun over at the Merry Little Christmas Challenge Blog. The challenge runs November 1 thru December 15. Plenty of time for you to make a Christmas project and get it submitted it to the challenge. The Merry Little Christmas Challenge is an all-crafts Christmas challenge blog and welcomes any and all kinds of handmade Christmas creations all year long.
Here's my time saver:
My project for this challenge is a 2'fer. I made a card and I made a bag topper to match. I love bag toppers and they are easy to make and really dress up a plain white gift bag.
OK lets go on the 2nd part of this project, the card.
The card is 5X7. The card base is white CS and the layered piece is DP. I cut a rectangle out on the left side of the card along with the DP. I embossed a piece of vellum and put it between the card base and the DP. Next I added a silver frame. Lastly I added some punched snowflakes and put rhinestones in the centers, added some glitter and added the sentiment and that finished the card.
These two, the card and the decorated bag, make a great duo for any gift.
I am submitting my project to the following challenges:
- Ellibelle's Crafty Wednesday M, Wed, E3 - Anything Goes (#4)
- The Crafty Addicts M, 1st Wed, 3E,#7 - Anything Goes (#8)
- Word Art Wednesdays (#100)
Beautiful card and gift bag combo. So perfect for Christmas and winter! So great to see you again at my Crafty Wednesday challenge!
