Happy Saturday!

Welcome to this weeks challenge with...
Hiding In My Craft Room...#73

This weeks theme was to make something with a Christmas theme, my favorite time of the year.



I decided to make a digital Christmas card.  I love making digital projects but I have put it on the back burner lately with playing with my Cricut so much, which I also love.

The digital program is Storybook Creator from Creative Memories, they have so many wonderful kits to work with.



Thank you for stopping by and visiting today, I hope that you have enjoyed your visit as well as my digital Christmas card, as much as I have enjoyed sharing with you.

Now,  for my project that I made to share with you today...




I made a tag to go with my digi stamp, a fairy.  I used the favorite colors of mine and my Daughters, pink, purple, and blue.  I torn some of the paper to give it little different affect.  I added some sparkly to the fairies wings and crown, as well as the flowers.  I added some gems around the hole of the tag in the same colors as the papers that I used.  I lastly added a shiny ribbon to the top of the tag.

I hope that our little hop has left you inspired to work with some digi stamps.

TIC - TAC - TOE BLOG HOP


Welcome to the Tic - Tac - Toe Blog Hop
with the Scraps to Treasure Team.


You should have started at...



It's that scrap time again and this month we are playing with the following Tic - Tac - Toe Board, where we pick three across, down, or diagonal to use along with our scraps.


This is my first time working with this kind of a challenge and I most say it was really fun. 

For my project I choose to go diagonally, which means I get to work with a Butterfly, a Tag, and Some Ribbon.
Here is what I came up with...




I took a card and laced in some red ribbon at the bottom.  I had two tags that I embossed with dots attached them just above the laced ribbon and I also added the same ribbon to the top of the tags. And lastly I added a couple of  Butterflies that I also embossed with a pretty design to the top of each tag.  Everything but the card itself came from my scrap box.

I hope that this hop has inspired you to try your own Tic - Tac - Toe.

Be sure to leave a comment for your chance to win a Close To My Heart Stamp Set.

Christmas Bow



Happy  Tuesday!!

As most people are getting everything ready for Turkey Day next week I am busy getting things ready for Christmas.

For today's post I have made a Christmas Bow to put on someone's gift.



This bow was so easy to make!!  I used the Cricut Cartridge...3D Bows, this is a Cricut Craft Room Exclusive Cartridge.

I used white card stock for the back of the bow and some Christmas patterned paper for the front of the bow.

Lastly I added a few pearls to the center of the bow to add a little bling.



I love this Cartridge.  I will be making all of my gift bows with it.  I am actually working on a whole set for my Daughter's gifts, seeing I like to coordinator gifts by wrapping each persons or family in one kind of wrapping paper so that it is easy to pull out from under the Christmas tree for gatherings and so on.  This year for my Daughter's gifts I got the wrapping paper 40% off of course at Hobby Lobby, but what is so great about it is that they have matching scrapbook paper, how cool is that.  With that matching scrapbook paper I am making bows and tags to go on all of her gifts to match the wrapping paper.  I love it!  Once I get them done I will be posting pictures so keep an eye out.


Thank you for stopping by and visiting today, I hope that you have enjoyed your visit as well as my Christmas Gift Bow, as much as I have enjoyed sharing with you.


Until Next Time...

Happy Crafting,


Robin Lane
