Bitten By the Bug2 - Anything Christmas

Happy Monday!  Our challenge at Bitten By the Bug2 is Anything Christmas!  I used a cartridge that I rarely think of "From My Kitchen."  I love how the little gingerbread men turned out!

This is our last post before Christmas so I hope you and your families have a very Blessed Christmas and a Wonderful and Happy New Year!  And remember JESUS is the reason for the season!

Creative Knockouts - Festive Flourishes

Good morning! I am in Southern California and we are finally getting some rain! I just love being in my craft room and hearing the rain on my roof.  It just makes me feel very blessed to have this cozy wonderful home!  Our awesome sponsor this week is Sami Stamps.


Our Challenge is to use flourishes so I picked out this darling and whimsical girl just sitting in the snow with her coffee looking very peaceful.  Growing up in Ohio, one thing I miss at this time of year is going outside at night after a snowfall. If you just stand there listening it is so calm and the snow glistens.  Oh well on to my card!

Bitten By the Bug 2 - Christmas Tree Challenge

Good morning I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving!  Our challenge at BBTB2 is to do a Christmas Tree.  I used two cartridges for mine Teresa Collins Dec. 25th and a really old cartridge called Christmas for the garland.   I tried welding for the first time on my new Explore (LOVE IT).  I welded the top of the trees together to make it a tree shaped card.  And just something I learned is that you need to mirror the copied tree to match the original or the folded card won't line up.


Please come and join us over at BBTB2 we absolutley love to see your wonderful creativity! Make sure you check out my talented design team sisters too!
