The Perfect Tree!!


My daughter and grandson's this year, when they found the tree!! I love that pic with all the snow falling, I think it just looks like "Christmas!" I used my snow tex on the branches from floral department, made those hearts with Prima stamp and water color pencils, used my scalloped scissors and hole punch on all "5" layers of paper! And as always, inked the edges of it all for antique look! Thanks for stoppin' by!

This lo took me awhile to do......I did my scalloped edges with holes, and this has "four" layers of background paper, so a little time consuming, but I love the effect! This also has the "Zva Creative" products on it! The crystal heart, adhesive dots, all silk flowers, brads, and word Precious are the Zva line! I made the hearts with my stamp, used my water color pensils on the one. I tucked in a layer of lace with pearls behind second layer. And as always, I inked the edges for the vintage feel! Thanks so much for stoppin' by!!

Christmas Box with book inside!

A Christmas box and book I made using Basic Greys Wassail paper.
Made the flowers using the "tree" paper with BG button in the middle. Used the stripe paper to
look like ribbon around the box. I also cut strips of paper and twisted it around a small paint brush to make it look like curly ribbon! I also twisted jute around small paint brush, got it wet, waited till it dried, then when I took it off brush, it stayed twisted! I also cut the round red shapes out of the Wassail paper, placed them randomly. And last but not least, cut circle shapes, then started on outside of circle, cut around and around till I ended up in middle, and it turned into a curly flourish!! Thanks again for stoppin' by!






Baby Boy


This was made with more of the Zva products! They are pretty awesome, love those brads and flourishes!! All the flowers, flourishes, brads, baby boy, and adhesive dots are the Zva line! I once again used my scalloped scissors and hole punch for this lo. I also stitched with my sewing machine around edge of lo. I hand made the hearts and big paper flower. My journaling strips are raised to make a wave effect, and as always, I inked all edges for the antique feel. One thing I forgot; I also added a piece of ribbon, and tucked it along edge of brown paper on bottom!
You have to look close to see it!! Thanks for stoppin' by!

This lo was made using the "Zva Creation" products! The brads, flourishes, the word "new", gold crystals on pics, flowers, and double sided adhesive dots are all Zva products! They are really cool, and I am particularly fond of the brads, so very pretty!! These are my new pets! Because of so much snow, I started feeding them, and the one cow actually eats out of my hand! I used three layers of papers to make the lo. I inked and distressed everything on this lo. I added the floral embellies from florist department, and added my "snow tex", love that stuff! Some of the letters in title were made with my sizzix! The ribbon has an awesome texture, can't tell you where I got it....had it for so long, forgot!!!! I frosted the edges of pics also in photoshop. Thanks for stoppin' by!
