Hi my crafty friends! I spent this morning doing some Christmas shopping and this afternoon doing some baking! Oh, my family is gonna love it when they get home today....my house smells like a bakery, lol! Yummy! I made peanut butter kiss blossoms, peanut butter ritz crackers dipped in milk chocolate, spritz cookies, melt aways and Christmas wreaths. So, is your mouth watering yet?? I need to make caramels and oreo truffles yet and then I think we're good. These are some of my families favorites:) What are your kids favorite Christmas cookie?
I have a Christmas card to share with you using the fun Teddy Bear Parade cartridge.The base of my card the Spellbinders Grand Scalloped Rectangles along with the base layer. The papers are from Recollection-Sugar Plums and the Jolly & Bright set. I added a little piece of burlap from Liz's Paper Boutique and then layered a Spellbinders Grand Large Label then the cute little bear. The reindeer bear is cut at 4" plus all the fun layers. The tag is the vintage stitched label die from My Creative Time and the sentiment is from My Craft Spot ~Winter Wonderland set. I inked all the edges with Tim Holtz-frayed burlap.
I finished by adding a double bow using 3 Girl Jam mistletoe crinkle ribbon, bakers twine bow & jingle bell to the scarf. The awesome little skittles are from Carri at Double Click Connections. The colors I used are Grinch red and Rudolph red. These skittles are so fun to add to projects and she has several colors to choose from. Be sure to go check them out over at Carri's blog.
I am entering this in the following challenges:
1.) 3 Girl Jam ~Christmas Inspiration with ribbon
2.) Fantabulous Cricut ~Challenge #141-Bells are ringing
