In the Bag GIFT IDEAS FROM STAMPIN' UP!

ANOTHER ART PIECE CHRISTMAS GIFT TAG - PAPER PIECING

hey bloggies,

How did you like my art piece from yesterday?  I hope you enjoyed it.  Here is another inspired by the guy who is well known in the paper crafting world.  I love grunge and altered items and he does it so well, doesn't he?

 I love PAPER PIECING - I call it 3-D imaging!  ha ha  I used three layers of stamped and cut out snowman pieces.

 The pieces of the snowman's hat, holly berries, nose, stick arms, and scarf are all 3-D pieces.  His body is also layered as you can see better in the next photo.

 For those of you who want to know the name of the stamp set and thinlits dies, please send me an email or leave a message where I can reply back to you.  I am not allowed to advertise other companies on my blog.

 I shaded him with some baked brown sugar ink and then added some dazzling details.

Although this last photo is out of focus, you can see very clearly the three layers I used here.

Here is a card I made with the same stamp set and dies:

I used a coastal cabana layer behind the top layer to coordinate with the snowman's hat band and scarf.

I have entered this at THE FRIDAY MASHUP - use crumb cake or craft.

Hope you enjoyed looking at my paper piecing 3-D imaging snowman.  It was so fun to create him and I am VERY PLEASED how he turned out!!

SANTA CHRISTMAS TAG

HEY BLOGGIES,

Today is the third day of using the Santa's List Stamp set.  Hope you are enjoying these ideas of what to make with this adorable set.

I have a gift tag for you today.  It is a simple tag but it is cute and does it's job.

Cherry cobbler card stock tag with Santa's face stamped with cherry cobbler on a Natural's Ivory card stock and punched with circle punch.  Used some red striped ribbon and a red glimmer brad to hold it to the tag, with baker's twine tying the ribbon at the top.

Silver glimmer paper and the Festive Flurries framelits die for the snowflake behind Old St. Nick.  The mini punch of an ornament and a scallop oval punched TO: FROM completed the tag.

Come back tomorrow for some more Christmas tags and fun!!  Thanks for stopping by.
