25 Days of Christmas Day 3: Poinsettias, Pinecones, & Presents

Hi everyone!

Today is the third day of the 3rd Annual 25 Days Christmas and Year 'Round Crafting Showcase over at My Paper Crafting. I am so very proud to be on the Cricut designer team and to be able to help provide inspiration in this fun event. We have many designers designing for this showcase in the areas of Cricut, SVG, Digi's, Calendar Pages, and Vintage Graphics. There will be lots of inspiration, Daily freebies, and weekly prizes!! Join in on the fun!!

For day 3 the challenge is: Pretty Poinsettias, Pinecones, or Presents

I chose to use poinsettias. Here is my creation for this challenge:

This card is 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" on green cardstock and with this pretty green and red paper which is measured at 4" X 5 1/4". The sentiment mat is cut from the Elegant Edges cartridge with the sentiment, "May all the joys of Christmas be yours" stamped on it. The poinsettias border is from the Quilted Christmas cartridge. I think it's so pretty! Love this time of year!

Stop by and check out all the fun projects and play along! Click the link above!

Thanks for taking a peek and have a crafty day!

Let's Talk Turkey Cut It Up Challenge #5

Hi everyone!
We have a new challenge over at Cut It Up Challenges. Challenge #5 is Give Thanks with a Twist. You must create a thank you project with a digital or stamped image and you also must include a die-cut. It can be a card, layout, 3D item, altered item, etc. You will have until November 14th!

Here is my creation. I made this Thanksgiving card and stamped the turkey and sentiment, "Let's Talk Turkey" on this die-cut from elegant edges cartridge. I also stamped the leaves and acorns and then colored them in with colored pencils. The paper is from DCWV's Halloween and Fall stack.
