A Cozy Christmas Gift Idea


Here is a sample of one of the fun little gift sets I have been making lately.  This set features a coffee cozy, card and candy. :)
After I stitched up the coffee cozy I cut a vinyl "stencil" of a snowflake out on my Silhouette. Then using the stencil I lightly sponged on fabric paint, waited for it to dry and then added Stickles around the edges of the snowflake for extra sparkle.   The top of the coffee cup is decorated with a Stickled snowflake and a small silver snowflake. 

The card features one of the most darling snowmen (the digi version) I have ever seen from All That Scraps.  He is just so cute! :)  He was colored with Copics and accented with fake snow and glitter.

Thanks for visiting me ~ I hope you have a wonderful day! 

Challenges Entered:
Digital Tuesday ~ Sparkle and Shine

My First Charisma Card!


I have to tell you that I am just totally over the moon so excited to have been asked to be part of the Charisma Cardz Challenges Design Team! Insert happy dance here!  This is my first card as a member of the design team and it features Snowfriends from The Stamping Boutique.   The challenge for this week is Lace and Pearls. My lace did a bit of a disappearing act, but I can assure you that it is really there peeking out from under the purple snowflake border.  :)

Made With Love Snow Woman Freebie



Wow it's been so long that since I've checked in that Blogger has changed over to a new way of posting... I don't think that's a good sign... :)
Anyway I wanted to share a freebie with you... hope you like her. She would be great for Made with Love tags for homemade goodie gifts around Christmas. 
She will only be up for approximately a week... in theory.  :0) Hope you can find a use for her.
Smiles,
Brandi

Colorful Christmas




Happy Friday! :)
Today we are celebrating Colorful Christmas at the Fun at Fairy Knoll Challenge... the only requirements this time are to use color and a Christmas image! :)
My project is a little box that I made (I traced a box I had taken apart) that should be just perfect for giving away truffles at Christmas time. The paper is from K&Co, the image from Fairy Knoll, and the sentiment from All That Scraps.
Hope you have lots of fun weekend plans! Smiles ~ Brandi

Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree

I love our Christmas tree. We have had it for nine years. It's funny I can still remember debating with my husband about buying it. The tree cost $100 and we couldn't decide if we could afford it or if it was worth it. In retrospect our Christmas tree was worth every penny. The walls glow from the lights and the ornaments sparkle... every time I pass by it makes me happy. Sometimes the couch beckons and time slows down.

Wishing you happy, joyful, stress free holidays...
