It's time for some more Christmas card inspiration! Today I want to share a couple more cards we made at my class last week.   Christmas Cheer- For this card, I used up some of my Washi Tape stash to make a tree.   Chocolate Woodgrain , Gold Polka Dot & Sparkle n shine.    I added some sparkles & a Gold sequin to finish the card off.  I stamped Christmas Cheer from the Holly Jolly Christmas stamp set .  This reindeer card was inspired by Close To My Heart.  They created cards like this for an Operation Smile Auction and an event I recently attended.  The background of this card is a Paper Fundamentals pattern.  The reindeer was cut from Cricut Artistry , and adorned with some colored sparkles & gems.  I stamped Christmas Greetings from the Holly Jolly Christmas Stamp set.  Check back in tomorrow to hear all about my Black Friday Steals & Deals! 

Last week I shared with you a couple of Christmas Cards that I created with White Pines Papers , White Pines Picture My Life Cards and Paper Fundamentals .   Today I want to share with you another of the cards we created! For this NOEL card, I took the Picture My Life Card and trimmed it down a little.  I used the Ruby Paper Fundamentals paper, and cut a bow using Cricut Artiste .  The white background paper is embossed with the Cascading Stars Folder.    Joy! This card was created similar to the "Peace" card I shared last week.  I cut the Picture My Life Card to fit, and cut some of the borders from other cards as accents.  I used the New England Ivy Paper Fundamentals for the background.  I added Silver Shimmer Trim and sparkles to finish the card off. Picture My Life cards are not just for scrapbooking, they make great cards too!  

Today I would like to share with you my entry in the Fresno Fair Home Arts Exhibits- Scrapbooking Around Fresno.  This layout is of my kids and I at the Pumpkin Patch last year.  I earned a Second Place ribbon for this one.   For this layout, I used the (retired) Scaredy Cat papers & Compliments, adding some Purple Glitter Paper too.   If you like this layout, take a look at the scrapbook kit that I used to create it.  I have ONE kit left... let me know if you want it!

For the last couple years, I have entered some of my favorite layouts, cards and other projects into the Fresno Fair Home Arts Exhibits.  I have been blessed by 1st, 2nd and 3rd place ribbons, Best of Show and Sweepstakes Ribbons.   This year is no different!  I entered 22 projects and came away with 15 ribbons this year and a Sweepstakes award!   Over the next week, I will show you some of my projects :) This is a Baby Boy Mini Album that was created using the Cricut Artbooking Cartridge.  The entire album is full of cricut cuts.  It's super cute and I was excited to see it won 1st place for Die Cutting Machine Mini Album.
