Joy

 

Sharing more of my Christmas cards.  I enjoyed using this Penny Black

Immense Joy die, every card was different.  I used previous years

Christmas cards for many of the centers, dies for some.  I also

went for my fancy shimmery papers instead of saving them

for a special occasion.

A few fun challenges:  Bear card-last one posted:

Dies/Anything Goes at Allsorts

  I am excited to be joining the Allsorts Design Team.  The challenge today

was picked by Sarah.  You can follow the theme of dies, or choose

anything goes.

  I choose to use Penny Black's Immense Joy die cut out of

a shimmery scrap I had, and the cute little penguin, Sizziz Cozy Penguin also

 die cut, also out of snippets.  The card stock already had shimmer and 

strands in it.  I did add a few Pixie Pebbles by Pawsitively Pawsome

Designs.  

3 prizes of Oakwood dies and coordinating stamps:

Spellbinders Advent Calendar

 

I am having so much fun creating with the 2024

Spellbinders Advent calendar.  It is filled with dies,

sentiments, stamps, sequins and all are fabulous (yes I

opened them all right away)  In the above image I

used Day 8-vase and flower dies,  Day 4 sentiment,

Day 5, the fabulous squiggle embellishment and the

orangish strip is embossed with Day 15 bookmark size

embossing die.  White oval is from Quick Cutz and

papers are from my stash.   

 

I will be back this Saturdaywith another post.

 I decorated these Hershey Nuggets and Peanut Butter Cups and the tin for some

friends.  Tuesday, the 10th is my mom's first heavenly birthday and her and

I always went shopping and out to lunch on her birthday.  Some mutual

friends and I are continuing the tradition on mom's birthday. I thought this 

would be a nice little Christmas gift for them. Tags were in a pack

of patterned paper and paper is retired from The Angel Company.
