Our family really loves to watch A Charlie Brown Christmas every year. So today I thought I would make a card kind of based on the Christmas Tree in the show.    I used the Designer's Calendar Cricut Cartridge, Elements Paper Seasonal, Green Cardstock, and some mixed media buttons, & saying.  I wanted to keep it simple and use some of my mixed media stash.  Sorry the picture isn't very good, my lighting in my craftroom isn't the best. I hope you like the card!  I cut the tree on page 53 at 3 1/2".

Welcome back to my blog!! I so appreciate each and everyone who visits and comments on my blog! I'm so excited to get new followers!! THANK  YOU!

Today's project I used Jolly Holiday's and Winter Lace Cricut cartridges.  I was really excited about this project!  I bought this soap dispenser last year and knew what I wanted to with it.  My first time at trying vinyl on a project!  I also used my new favorite Glittering Snow by DecoArt

I cut the penguin from Jolly Holiday's at 4" using my gypsy to hide a few features.  I layered on the feet, nose and white inside body first then attached it to the black vinyl then placed it on the soap dispenser.  Next I added the "snow" with the Glittering Snow.  It has to dry 24 hours before you use the dispenser.  Next I cut the snowflakes out of the Winter Lace cartridge at 1".  Before I did my cuts I always cut it out on paper first to make sure the size will work with my project.  I used the paper  cuts to make a gift tag.  I like how it turned out!  Thanks for visiting! Hope it inspires you to create one of your own!      ♥♥ Christina ♥♥

If you can't tell I absolutely love to make scrapbook pages! Today's theme is Snow!

I used some printed snow paper that I had in my supplies, I used the Jolly Holiday's & Christmas Noel Cricut cartridges.  I used a new (new to me) product that I found at a craft store called Glittering Snow by Deco Art.  Now I am not sure if it is scrapbook safe that is why I only put it on my house where a picture would not be close to it.  It looks like sparkly snow!! I LOVE it!  I cut the house out of Jolly Holiday's @ 6".  I hand cut some of the snow and for the layers I cut several cuts from Christmas Noel at 3-4".  I chalked around the snow layers, glued them down and then added some stickles to make it pop.  I pained the Glittering Snow on the roof and window sills (it needs to dry for 24 hours).  I am pretty happy with how it turned out.  Thanks for stopping by!!
