Jingle Belles - March 9th

Neutral Noel

This week's theme over at Jingle Belles is to make a card inspired by the image below from Pottery Barn

... I'm not sure if my card qualifies as a neutral tone... but the pillow with the goldish tree on the top left was my inspiration for this card.  I tried three different ways of putting those beads on but sewing them three at a time was what I finally stuck with

• Card size - 5.25" x 5.25"
• Papers - Martha Stewart
• Cuttlebug - embossing
• Spellbinder - square and circle scalloped frame
• Sentiment "NOEL" is a stamp and heat embossed
• Each bead was sewn on 3 at a time
• Cricut cartridges:
  
  • Christmas - angel (cut and heat embossed)
  • Home Decor - flourish

My Sheri Crafts #81

Easter Pastels

 This week's theme over at My Sheri Crafts, is to use Spring's pastels and make a craft project with it.

Since it was my first project back as a Design Team member... I wanted to add my signature love to using feather boas.  YES!  After a LONG break, I'm finally back with My Sheri Craft's Design Team!  I'm so excited to be working with a new group of talented people.

I had intended to make this project initially for Easter for my three kids.  The bags were left over party bags from my girls' birthday party back in 2007... I had exactly three left!  Why I held on to them... who knows... why do we hold on to all the stuff we have in our stash?  So we'll have them in case we need them!

The green bag is the original size just folded over at the top, I had cut the two purple ones to add the feather boa and the handles

• Papers: DCWV
• Spellbinder: three different die cut frames for the three bunnies
• Bunnies: downloaded from 321 Coloring Pages and colored with Copics
• Cricut cartridge: Designer's Calendar - "Easter"
