Jar of Hearts

Valentine's Day if coming up fast!
Here is an idea of a quick card that you can make for a friend.
The background is cut from Spellbinder dies.
The jar is stamped on white card stock and cut out. I stamped the hearts on colored paper and cut them out. 
Then I stamped it on acetate and cut out the top and bottom. When I got to cutting the sides, I made wings or flaps to fold around the jar so it is rounded out.
The jar and hearts are Crackerbox Palace rubber stamps.

Happiness through your door

In the background Chick used Stampscapes stamps for the clouds, mountain and path.  The saying is from Crackerbox Palace stamps.
The green and gold board used is a piece of cardboard with wallpaper over top.  The opening is a Tim Holtz die cut with gold marker around the inner and outer edges.  The trees and the houses are also from Tim Holtz die cut collection.  She put some scrapes she had from left overs from clear with glitter stickers.   Then she added snow to the trees and houses.

Let It Snow Shaker

I don't know about you, but here in Wisconsin we have a dusting of snow. 
The background was embossed with Cuttlebug snowflake embossing folder and white ink was used over the embossed area then added some Stickles.
Currie made this shaker card using fake snow and a square Shake It window.
She used Copic markers for the shovel and stamped the sayings with blue ink with glitter.
She put Ice Stickles around the window.
Thanks for stopping by and taking a look.

Coffee Calendar Book

Now that the new year started we need new calendar books.
Here is an idea from Currie.  She used a old photo album.
If you are not a coffee drinker, it is still a good idea if you like to up-cycle. Use your old calendar book, put a new face on it and get the calendar pages and you have a very personal book.
Starting with an old photo album, she cut the shapes with Cricut Storybook cartridge.
Stamped it with Distress Inks and colored with Copic markers.
This could also be a address book. Good idea for next years Christmas gift for someone!
