The Design Team for

 MAKE IT MONDAY

Holiday Photo Cards

 

Ashley is featuring photo cards for this week's Make It Monday challenge,we can use supplies we have to create any type of photo card!  Well, it is December 25th and I am finished sending out Christmas cards, but for my niece's birthday in January, I found a 32 year old school picture to make her a "Photo" B-Day card!  
I know she just cringes when she opens up these cards her Auntie Helen sends her, but I think it's adorable.  ;-p

Sorry about the bad lighting on the card, it is 9:45 PM and I just forgot to take an outside pic earlier in the week!

Coffee Lovers BlogHop-Winter '16

Oh my goodness!  I love my Mini Misti that I won on Amy's Birthday Week!  Thank you so very much Amy Tsuruta! 💖

I had to use it on this card AFTER I colored in, paper pieced and lined up the frame, so if I messed up the sentiment, it would have been a disaster!  

I also plan to use it to get out the 100's of Christmas cards that I am so very far behind  making and hope it speeds up my process a bit. 😏
I have sooooo many more Coffee Tea and Cocoa themed card ideas floating around in my head, but really can't get to them with every thing else I have to do ~ same as I am sure is the case this time of year for so many of you!  Wish December was 60 days long, but, alas it is not so making this my last Winter CLBH entry.

Create Along with PTI - December 2016

"Create Along With Us" challenge at Papertrey Ink allows us to select something one of the amazing Design Team members has created during the December Release that inspired you.  Then we can create our own version of their project...cool, eh? 
It's really hard to choose just one card, but Maile's sweet birthday card is the one I tried to CASE: 


This is Maile Belle's card
My Card~
I used Peonies on Parade to kinda look like the sketchy flowers :-)
The sentiment is from Boutique Borders: BIRTHDAY
