Christmas Nugget Tins

This year I made some nugget tins to give as gifts.  The tins were part of a share with a Facebook group.  The papers came from Hobby Lobby and I just love the polka dotted patterns.  The Santa was cut using the Doodlecharms cartridge and by adding a Peachy Keen face.  I pop dotted the mustache and added some Glossy Accents to the nose.  The tag is the XL die and the Stitched XL die from My Creative Time.  I also used my Cuttlebug to emboss the beard and mustache with the Dotted Swiss embossing folder and another Cuttlebug folder (cant remember the name of that one) was used on the white parts of the hat.  I tied the tag to the tin using some green and red tulle.

Hope you all had a Merry Christmas.  Be safe in your celebrations tonight for New Year's Eve and Happy New Year to you all!!

Ericas Craft Room Theme Thursday - Easter Eggs and Grass

This was the sketch and here is what I made with it!






My project today was inspired by Mary at Cardz TV. She made this cute little bunny on one of her videos and I thought my grandkids would love it too so I borrowed her idea and incorporated it into my card. I used Art Philosophy for the egg card shape. The card was cut at 5.50 inches. I also cut the green polka dot paper at the same size for the front of the card. The little fence was cut using Paper Doll Dress Up and I used my Gypsy to resize it to 5 x 1.75 inches. I still had to cut a little off of it after I glued it to my card. The bunny came from the Doodlecharms cartridge and is 2.50 inches. His face is from the Peachy Keen Critter set (PK-754). I added some white pen to accent his nose and the top it with some Glossy Accents to make it shiny. His little hands are just little circles cut at 1/2 inch using Plantin Schoolbook. The flowers were cut at 2 inches from the Art Philosophy cartridge. I also added some yellow Stickles to add some sparkle and color . The last finishing touch was a little twine tied around the egg shaped silhouette shape.

I am also entering this into Erica's challenge for March 20th to March 27th.
