sixty eight: let it snow

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas at More Than Favors. Here's my snowy card. Man do I miss the snow. Hopefully we can go snowboarding this year?? It's been years since I've touched the snow.

sixty six: Halloween treat

This is my first time doing The Cuttlebug Spot challenge. I had to get a Cuttlebug when I saw it and then when I saw there was a pink one, I was sold. But I want to start incorporating it more frequently in my day to day creations. I'm hoping The Cuttlebug Spot will help keep me in check!

I made this Halloween treat holder using this 2-5-7-10 Box tutorial from Splitcoaststampers (I love this site!).

twelve: flower power - trying new techniques

Besides locking myself in the craft room, I love watching video's online. That's where I get my inspiration. I stumble upon Custom Crops videos again and they explained the different type of core'dination paper. I thought, I should use this technique (I find all these great techniques but never apply them!) I actually had some core'dination paper and made a simple card. It was a little too simple but effective as I used the embossing and sanding technique. However, it was missing something...aha! Months ago I wanted to try quilling. Using my memory (that's a first) I remembered how to quill a flower which matches perfectly with the embossed flowers :)
