New Release Friday at The Stamping Chef

 

My post is late today as it was lost again in blogger land.

I worked all day and then spent the rest of the afternoon helping clean

out my LSS that is closing. It is a heartbreaking thing but it can't be helped,

 we will start a new phase with crops with Tara, Joyce, Karen and I

and anyone else that wants to join...

So  saying that her is my first Christmas card of 2013.

 

Bring On Christmas is the new release this week at The Stamping Chef.

I just love this image and all the papers that go with it..

 I actually made two projects with this image but one is on hold for a later challenge..

I also made this card... I didn't colour anything myself , just printed everything off ...

The colours are great!   I added stickles of course!

you can find the image and the papers here.....

 

Bring on Christmas.....

SIP A LITTLE SWEET TEA JACK!

 

My next card is a first day of summer card.

I do have a couple of prom pictures that I really like but they are not of me..
well I can't find the one of my oldest daughter and her prom date .
but here is one of Emily my youngest in her dream prom dress

The Stamping Chef - For Dad Challenge

Happy Wednesday! ...

Thanks for checking out my take on our Dad's Challenge!

I had another post done but it got lost in blogger land somewhere.

I love the tools in this file...

I made the card into a mini toolbelt made to look

like faux leather.

I just sprayed the paper with water , then crumpled it, then spread it  back out.

I then heated with heat gun to dry quicker. I then inked it!

The screws are brads... I love them!

My faux hankie is some paper from my stash.

Mr. Fix Alot is the file I used and you can find it here!

I have only used a few items from this file so go check it out!!!
