Karen's Craft Creations

Today I am working on my Christmas cards. I have made several; but have given most of them away to others.   This CCR cut is from winter woodland cartridge on page 51. I used some glossy accents on the skate blade to make it shine.   I used Edge to Edge cut #18 at 5 inches for the background. I think it turned out wonderful, although I should have double cut this design, some of it I had to pick out.     Thanks for stopping by. Hope you have a wonderful weekend.

I am so bummed today…..My new laptop crashed last week and Best Buy has had it for too long. I have gotten most of my files back; but, some of them I can’t remember where I got them.   I only had it for 3 months and didn’t think about backing it up in that short of time. I have definitely learned my lesson.     If you know where this design came from please let me know. I have a plastic box that I put all my paper cut offs in. It is so hard to use them up. I came up with this design to use a little strip with a side punch, and a little ribbon. I used a spellbinder die to put the print in a frame. I like the way it turned out and hope you do too.   Have a great Wednesday, hope you can get out for Church tonight. Thanks for stopping by.       I will be entering this card in the following challenges: http://www.crafterscompanion.co.uk/blog/crafterscompetition/2013/12/ribbons-twine-and-thread/ http://littlemissmuffetchallenges.blogspot.com/2013/12/challenge-75-y
