Christmas all year long

Hello Crafty friends,
    I had fun colouring this digi image yesterday with my copic markers. I am just a beginner with them and do not have enough yet to get the varied I would like, but they are cute and playful anyway. The challenge was to only add ribbon....well I did but then I added sparkle paper....does that count? Here is my card...

These are a few of my favourite things.... April Blog Hop

Hello Crafty Friends,
   Today our team "the Brea-ers" are sharing some of our favourite things. If you have joined me from Sheri's Blog then you are in the right place!

When I first joined CTMH 7 years ago it was because none of the other companies had so much BLING and I loved all the accessories! Remember these?
These are the retired accent tubes and back then I bought them all...and I'm hording them...but also because they aren't as easy to use as CTMHs newest accents! Which I will show you next :)
 

all these are accessories that match the Lollydoodle paper back, they are adhesive backed and makes dressing up your scrapbook pages and cards together so quickly! :) Here is my layout!
I haven't even added a title or journaling yet but I love love love how this layout has turned out!! I used CTMH's make it from your heart, volume two, layout pattern 10 and this layout just came together in a snap!! here are some close ups.....The left side....
and then the right side......

and a close up of some of the supper cute accessories

 
 
What do you think??? Hop on over to Kimberly Clark's Blog to see what her favourite things are!!What is YOUR favourite thing??? If you don't have a CTMH consultant and would like to buy these items you can go to my shopping site Michelle Hughes here :)
Hope you get to craft today!

Christmas Cards All Year Long - shaped

Hello scrappy friends!
   This week over at Christmas stampin all Year Long the challenge was to make a Christmas card that isn't square or traditional. This was quite a challenge for me as I have never made one!! LOL I am so thankful for the challenge to help me get out of my box!! If you join us at CSAYL you could win some Di's Digistamps!!   Here is my card....
I used CTMH Art philosophy to cut the stocking and the holly leaves. Used retired sparkle and shine paper pack and lots of bling. I wish I could sew on cards and I would have done the seams. Maybe that will be my next out of the box but for now Im happy with my card!! What do you think?
