SOUS Project: DEER

SOUS Friday Diecut Challenge: Use a deer on your project.

Here I am with this week's design team project for SOUS featuring a die cut of a deer!  Well, in my case, a family of deer.

I probably create an equal mixture of layouts and cards, but rarely do I make an altered project.  I didn't actually "alter" anything, but you get the idea. I was actually inspired with several different ideas to come up with this framed art. 

First, I saw this cute 8x8 frame in HL and the wheels started turning. Second, I recently helped a friend who wanted the use of my Cricut to make Christmas presents for her family.  She showed up with an arm load of Christmas colored paper and a very specific idea for her lettering.  The font I used on this is the same font she used on her altered projects. Lastly, I needed to use deer. So I rummaged thru my choice of files and "remembered" my deer family from myscrapchick.com!!!

This project is "mine"! Meaning I didn't lift this from anywhere I know.  I'm sure someone has made something resembling this before, but I still plucked this out of my own head.  Thank you for stopping by! I hope this week's die cut challenge at SOUS will inspire you to make something with a deer too!

Here is a closer view of the embellished deer.

Santa's Workshop: Diecut Challenge

SOUS Die Cut Challenge: Toys Toys Toys!!!

Santa's Workshop

Welcome back to Friday's SOUS die cut challenge: toys toys toys!!  I was lucky - I had the perfect picture to scrap of my son posing with Santa in his toy workshop!!  But, I did have to do some "research" to get the right die cut toys for this LO.  I ended up at www.svgcuts.com and fell in love with one of their files featuring nothing but "old time" toys.  The file has a good mixture of dies for both boys and girls.

And of course I'm overrun with AC Christmas paper and yes, used a lot of scraps!!  Also I scraplifted this LO from one of my pins on Pinterest. 

Thank you for stopping by and hope you feel inspired to make your own LO with toys!!!

Hello there!

I made this card for a special client at my work who provided a holiday dinner for all of us today.  What a treat!!!  She loves and cares for many animals and has been a huge supporter of our animal hospital.

So naturally, I asked to make her a special "thank you" card instead of getting her a store-bought card!!

Our client loves cats plus she provided a holiday meal so  . . . . I came up with this adorable cat from Treasure Box Designs plus I included a Santa hat from another file.  I followed a sketch by Mojo Monday.

Supplies:

MME: Sweater Weather 6x6 paper pad
Die Cut - Treasure Box Designs
Stamp: www.craftspotbykimberly.blogspot.com
Poinsetta 3D embellishments
