Merry Christmas to One and All!

Here's the Christmas card I made to send out this year. It looked pretty simple after making the first one, but after 60 of them I realized that it had a lot more parts than I realized!!

And I kind of went for a non-traditional color scheme. It was all based on the colors of our shirts in the photo I wanted to put inside the card.

And here's the inside. And notice Jessie's top, it IS Rich Razzleberry! Well, at least it WAS Rich Razzleberry, on my camera, and on my iPhoto!! So after I planned everything around Rich Razzleberry, and then got the pictures printed, I was a little bummed that some of the colors on the pictures came out so dark! But, oh well, I still like the Rich Razzleberry!


I hope you have a Very Merry Christmas!!

Tag with A Little Something!

I found these super cute little Lindor Truffle packages, and thought they'd be a cute quick gift for some of my co-workers. They're definitely just a "little something," but they're so cute. The package has 3 truffles in it, and they were just $1. I have to admit (cause I'm sure you want to know) that I got them at Walmart. I'm usually a Target shopper, but they do have some good things at Walmart. I just know when to go there - only first thing in the AM, before work, and only on a weekday. Otherwise, I just don't do Walmart :) Not to be snobby, it's just a little crazy during the day - and slow annoying lines to get out!

So, anyway, I didn't want to do too much to them. I will be making a few of them so I wanted to keep it simple!

So I made a tag with the Two Tags die, and added some "details!" I used the Scallop Circle punch and Red Glimmer Paper, then I used the 1 3/8" circle punch with a stamp from the Pines and Poinsettias set. I love that little image! And I was going to use a to/from stamp on the tag, but then I found this Christmas stamp in the Delightful Dozen set - luuuuvv it!! And love how it fits on the tag! - Not much room to put a 'to and from' now, but that's ok - it'll be a quick 'from Julie B!'

And my favorite part - the little clothespin with the bow to hold it together! (and we'll see how many little bows I can get done?!) - Love those clothespins, and it was 'needed' to hold the tag on - Perfect!


Well, I better get busy making some more tags!
