Birdhouse Ornament for My Sheri Crafts

This week's requirement at My Sheri Crafts is to create a Christmas-themed ornament/home decor. I altered a birdhouse that I got from Michael's. The base of the birdhouse was painted with crackle paint and I covered the roof and sides with paper from DCWV and Graphic 45. The awning at the roof was made using the Martha Stewart Cornice border punch, and I made a wreath using Martha Stewart branch punch. The "berries" are made of Liquid Pearls. I added ribbon "pillars" along the edges and Stickles to frame the "windows".

Webster's Pages Vintage Mini Album I

I have plans to make several other vintage mini albums using Webster's Pages, hence the title. :-) I used the mini papers from Webster's Pages and added some coordinating paper from Anna Griffin and K&Co. Pamela was the recipient of this album and she likes the pink, white and black color combination and vintage.
More product details are discussed in the video on the next post.

Thank You Notecards for My Sheri Crafts

This week's theme at My Sheri Crafts is "Be Thankful". I decided to make "Thank You" notecards instead of focusing mostly on a Thanksgiving theme. There are so many things to be thankful for everyday, and not just on Thanksgiving. When I have a hard day, I close my eyes and count my blessings, and I realize how fortunate I am. :-)

These notecards measure 3"x3". I used designer paper and paper lace from K&Co. The sentiment is from JustRite Stampers, inked using ColorBox. I used clear embossing powder to finish off the look, and cut off the frames using Spellbinders dies. I added "pearls" using Enamel Accents and Viva Decor Pearl Pen. The flowers are from Prima.

Roll Tide!

Our theme for this week's challenge at My Sheri Craftsis sports. My in-laws are avid fans of the Crimson Tide, so I decided to make a card for them.
I cut the paperdoll at 3" using the Everyday Paperdolls Cricut cartridge. The football measures 6" and was embossed using the Cuttlebug Tiny Mosaic folder. I embossed the background using the Stars embossing folder. I used stickles to outline the football and the helmet. The letters were cut at 1", using font from the Old West cartridge. The metal "studs" were bought at Hobby Lobby. I pop-dotted the letters and the football player for added dimension.

More Halloween Cards

I made a couple more cards for Halloween; one of them is for (DH) Billy's aunt and the other one is for his Grandma. I used paper from Graphic 45's Hallowe'en in Wonderland. I used images from http://vintageholidaycrafts.com/category/halloween/.
This card measures 5"x7". The button is from Tim Holtz. Baker's twine and a beaded trim complete the look.

I used Prima flowers and buttons from Dress It Up for this A2 sized card.

Halloween Card For My Sheri Crafts

Whew! The little boy finally slept. :-)

Our theme for this week at My Sheri Crafts is "It's The Great Pumpkin!". Halloween is around the corner, so I decided to make a card for my Mother-In-Law. I used paper from Graphic 45's Hallowe'en in Wonderland paper pack. The clip art is from http://vintageholidaycrafts.com/category/halloween/. I used a border punch from Martha Stewart and black tulle to add a Gothic flair, but at the same time, I did not want it to look macabre, so I added the Prima flowers. I used black enamel accents for the flower centers and the "studs". The black pearl stick pin is from Maya Road.
