Christmas Joy
Hello!! It is already Tuesday which means it is time for my By Lori Designs post. Hannah Boyd has designed some new Bug & Roo stamps and there is a limited time bundle you can get right HERE. For my card today I used Winter Hannah along with the cute little Christmas Tree Digi.
The sentiment is from Sweet 'n Sassy Christmas Tags but I can't remember what the paper is called.
Have a great day and please stop by and visit the By Lori Designs Blog to see the new stamps and creations from the design team.

The Sweet Stop 135
Happy Saturday!! I am sorry I am a bit late with this weeks Sweet Stop Sketch. I totally had a brain bubble and late last night after seeing Breaking Dawn:) realized I never finished coloring my image or posting it. I worry about me lately. Do you ever have weeks where there is so much going on you just can't keep it all straight?
My card this week is a double duty card, The Sweet Stop and a Birthday card for my little monkey who turns four in about a week.
I used the fence punch instead of the ribbon detail and did add a few embellishments but other than that kept the same sketch. This cute monkey digi is from ATS and is called Tulip Monkey. The sentiment is from Lilli of the Valley and the paper is Three Bugs in a Rug Chloe.
Stop by and visit the rest of the Sugar Babies and I hope you will join in on this weeks challenge.

Merry Christmas Digis at ATS
Hi friends!! The All That Scraps Digi Team a has made some more gorgeous creations to share with you this week. We are reviewing some of last years Sugar Plum Digis by C.C. Designs but remember they are also available in rubber too.
My poor altered note book went through a lot of changes, I just couldn't get it to where I was happy with it and still not sure.... but one thing is for sure this Santa Emma and Presents are too cute!!
As I said this is an altered note book that I thought I would use for all of my holiday lists. The note book I got at Michael's in the dollar section. I used the Martha Stewart Holly punch to cut out the vellum leaves. I placed Emma on top of a vellum panel and used to Liquid Applique with a heat gun for the fur trim.
Enjoy the rest of the week and I will see you on Saturday:)

Thanksgiving Wishes
Hi everyone!! I hope your week is going well, it is too early for me to tell here:) Today is Tuesday which means it is time for some By Lori Designs Inspiration from the wonderful design team. I decided to make a a Thanksgiving card which is something I haven't made this year. I used the super cute Katie and Grace Digi. I was having a very off day in the coloring department but sometimes you just have to go with it, at least that is what I told myself.
I picked up this paper in the dollar section at Target a few weeks back and thought if nothing else my kids could use it but it turned out to be the perfect whimsical touch I was looking for. I also had this burlap laying around for months just waiting to be used. The die is My Favorite Things Jumbo Scallop and the sentiment is from C.C. Designs Amy R Autumn Sentiments.

The Sweet Stop Sketch 134
I first want to say a big "Thank You" to all of you who stop by and leave such nice comments. I appreciate all of you and I want to apologize that I haven't been able to visit everyone as much as I use to. This school year has brought on a lot of added activities and I may have over done it myself. I have some new goals for the new year but I will share all of that next month. I am so dead tired at the end of the day I just can't stay up so late anymore but I hope to get better.
I have another Christmas project to share with you today. I have been trying really hard to get a few Christmas cards done for those extra special people that appreciate a hand made card.
I used the new sketch over at The Sweet Stop SSS134. My stamp is from Elizabeth Bell called What's In the Box Peeker. And I used my new favorite holiday sentiment set from Sweet 'n Sassy called Christmas Tags. I loved the black and red wreath I made here and decided to make a card in the same colors to go along with it. The border punch is MFT Dienamics Scalloped Scallop and I added some silver dots on the edges to go along with the ribbon buckle.
