FS620 - the absolutely incredibly talented Melody aka lacyquilter is this weeks featured stamper. Can I just say her gallery is amazing and I am blown away at her talent. Congratulations Melody, I really enjoyed looking through your gallery today. I found this incredible CARD.
Blue and white cards are my all time favorite color combination and when I saw Melody's card I just had to make more blue and white snowflake cards. I am running out of time so I made this card for the masses. Super easy, stamped the sentiment, layered. cut down the glittery snowflake paper and layered on the blue and glued to the card base.

USEIT2018 - Teapot
I figure in the winter I like a warm cup of tea so this teapot reminds me of a wintery thank you.
I have spent the last week going through my box of die cuts and stamped images on my table trying to sort them out and find a way to use stuff up in that box. It seems to have taken over my table. This teapot was in that box.
Layered the papers, tied the ribbon and stamped the sentiment on this small tag that was in the box. Added some DP behind the teapot to match the red layer and finished off with this butterfly.
Teapot Thanks
IC682 - Unique Vintage where is found this stunning Headband.
The dress had a super stunning pattern and it drew me in for a closer look. I created wedding cards using this paper trying to us a paper to mirror the pattern in the dress. Then layered ribbon and lace paper and finished off with a large rhinestone piece in the corner and the rings and some string flowers.
These are more items from my stash of stuff to use up this year. There is still a very long way to go but I have a plan to get more of it used for my 2019 goal.

Stamped this fun AI lady and colored her with pencil. Cut the layers. Found an old piece of emboss resist and used that as the cross layer. Finished off with the punched hearts and gems.

FS618 - The incredibly talented Victoria (Hawaiian) I have loved her gallery for a very long time. Congrats Sweet Victoria!!!! I found this amazing CARD.

WT718 - Pretty Packages
I created this bag for a gift card for my mom. She will see this post so I am going to tease her. LOL! (Update she has seen the post and said she does not want to wait 12 days for her present - LOL!)
After creating the bag I realized this very old Stampin Up set has nearly the same type of images as the bag so I thought a tag would be perfect from the set. Stamped the frame then stamped the angel in the frame and colored with copics to match the colors in the bag. Die cut some buttons to match the colors of the buttons I colored on the image and finished off with a polka dot gem to match. Tied the tag with the handles on the bag.
In our family we use cloth gift bags for our presents. It was something my hubby's family did and now my family does it as well. Saves on tossing paper and buying new paper rolls every year. The bags are washable and reusable.

F4A460 - Holiday Card Showoff
CCC18DEC - Anything Goes
Yes anything goes when I am trying to get my Christmas cards out.
I printed off several of these penguins earlier in the year because he is just the cutest. I colored many of him up to put on my cards in the event I was running behind. Well yes I was running behind again this year. So to make them quick I did all the same layout and papers and finished them off with stickers. I was so thankful to have so many great images already colored to make it a bit quicker to put these together.

IC680 - Shutterstock where I found this great IMAGE.
This might be the fastest I have ever inked up a new stamp. I just got this in the mail yesterday. It was a freebee from my purchase and I loved it the second I opened the box and thought it would be perfect for my inspiration today.
Stamped it in both corners for two cards (Yes I am still getting cards made - for teachers and friends that will be hand delivered). Colored with copics and layered. Finished off with gems.
FS617 - the wonderfully talented JEXTERRA {aka Jessica Kruegel}. I found this great Card. The Viking image reminded me of How to Train Your Dragon.

My great aunt made me a bunch of these little sweaters about 8 years ago.

Stamped the Unity Ugly Sweater Season sentiment, embossed the snowflake BG and used some sparkly die cut snowflake paper scraps.
