First, we are thrilled to welcome Melissa Phillips back as part of the Crafty Secrets Team! AND welcome Darlene Pavlick (guest designer) this month. Thanks for joining us ladies, I can’t wait to see your beautiful projects.
Today’s challenge is “Christmas themed” using different products from Crafty Secrets. So, again I picked a darling image from Christmas Creative Scraps. If you are like me, and don’t have a lot of time to color your images, then Creative Scraps are the perfect solution. This is the second of many Christmas tags I’m making this year. The measurement are the same as the one in my previous post.
I do have another card for you that I had hoped would be finished for today’s post, but I didn’t get it done (almost), so it should be up on my blog in the next few days. Also, I have a couple of videos for you, just haven’t had the time to sit down and edit them. I have had many, many requests for a video showing the tissue paper and Glimmer Mist idea I talked about a few posts back, so next week for sure. The reason I didn’t get anything done on my crafting items was because I went and played with our new grandson today, took over 123 pictures. I was in heaven and it was worth every minute. ;)
Be sure and check out all the other Design Team Members listed below, I’m sure they have some beautiful projects to share with you today.
See supplies used below.
Thanks for stopping by, Linda ;)
