Momo's Tuesday Challenge #15

So the newest Tuesday Challenge is to make anything other than  card.  I made some more gift bags.  :)

First up a birthday one...

Since I had Celebrate With Flourish out I decided to get a jump start on some Christmas gift bags....

I really like how the Christmas bags came out.. Love the cuts on Celebrate With Flourish.  This was all made with random papers in my stash.

Thanks for looking!  Hope you're having a great week!  :)

Late Night Crafting

So I found a challenge to get me inspired and sit down to make something.  I saw Cristina @ craftingwithcristina.com was having a challenge to use leaves, red, orange, and yellow in a Falling for Fall companion challenge.  I still had out my Celebrate With Flourish Lite cartridge on my table from the gift bags I posted earlier... when I looked at it this card was a no brainer.  Perfect for 11:30 at night when you're trying to get your mojo back :)

Here's my fall card...

I really like the way card turned out.  The red paper is from DCWV's Amber Autumn stack and the base is kraft cardstock.  The "Happy" and "Fall" were also cut from DCWV's Amber Autumn stack.  The cut is 2.25 inches and from Celebrate With Flourish Lite Cartridge.  I did some quick (and kinda sloppy, oops) stitching around the edge of the card with a brown Zig pen.  Oh, and added a piece of brown ribbon, trying to balance out that side of the card.  

Big thank you to Cristina for getting me going with your challenge.  Thanks to everyone else for taking a look.  :)  Hope everyone has a great day!!!

Cheers

A couple of quick gift bags

Hey everyone!

I seem to be on a little burn out the last couple days so I haven't done much in my scrap space.  I think I need to go do some challenges to get myself going.  They are always such good motivators for me.            

I did make a couple of quick gift bags.  These are just the plain ones like the baby gift bag I posted a week or two back.  At work we celebrate all the birthdays for the month in my department at once and have lunch and gifts.  So I made these up for the 2 birthdays in September.....

Super simple.  On the yellow one the patterned paper is from American Crafts Celebration line.  I took a scalloped square from Accents Essentials and manipulated it in Design Studio to make a rectangle 8.25x5.5 inches.  The other one... not sure, just a random piece of paper in my stash.  That rectangle is 8.25x6 inches.  I cut both of the presents at 3 inches from Celebrate With Flourish Lite Cartridge.

Who was on Momo's UStream last night?  I have so much fun chatting with everyone!   (I'm Amanda711 on there, btw.)  Last night was great because it was all about embossing and I'm such a stamping novice I really learned a lot.  The chatting is just an added bonus. :)

Thanks for stopping by today.  :)  

Cheers
