Crafting of Another Kind - Winedeer





I saw several different versions of these little "Winedeer" cuties while blurfing the other day and thought they would be perfect little gifts for my GNO (Girls Night Out) gals. I decided to give them a try and even used some of the corks I had saved from one of those such nights :0)
For a little extra touch I made tiny tags with my Martha Stewart punch and stamped a cheery little sentiment from the PMS Little Moments set. Wine makes everyone a little merry doesn't it?!
Hope you have a Merry week!

We're hopping with PMS fans this month. I can't wait to go through it myself and checkout what holiday creations everyone else has come up with. I decided to use the ornaments and sentiment from last months release.

Remember that the entire month of December PMS is offering free shipping. If you're enjoying the hop be sure to leave a comment, because 1 lucky commenter will receive a grab bag of stamp goodies. The comment entries will close on December 14th.

Nutcracker's Friend


Isn't this just too punny!! I got this idea from an online printing company store. It "cracks" me up hahahha!!!
I used the Nutcracker image from Paper Makeup Stamps November release. The squirrel is a Quick cutz die, the acorn is from a PTI set, and the sentiment is an old stamp from SU! - spreading the love I guess. I like when I can combine so many images and stamps to come up with spmething pretty cute!
I was off by one day on the snow forecast. It's supposed to be headed our way tonight. A good reason to say snuggly warm indoors!!
Have a great weekend!

Art is the tree of Life

It's been awhile!! We spent 10 days with family and friends eating, drinking, shopping and having fun together, a much needed break!! Winter seemed to join us over those 10 days too! It's freezing here with an expected 6-10 inches of snow on the way tonight!

I thought I would show a card I made waaay back in the warmer fall weather that I didn't get posted :0) A friend of mine loaned me her Cuttlebug leaf die and embossing folder combo to try out -loved it! I used old book text to create the leaves and then sponged over them to give them their nice fall color. The sentiment is from Paper Makeup Stamps.

Paperr Makeup Stamps is having a fun HUGE sale all month long so if you're needing to stock up on something or have never purchased anything from PMS before, this is a great way to get started :0)

Hope you all had a fun relaxing Thanksgiving holiday!
