Timbroscrapmania Challenge # 54 – Marrone, turchese e rosso
I love the Sizzix moveable dies to make cards from. This is the 4 window diecut.
I used corregated cardboard for the base, brown distressed parchment paper for the Tim Holtz saying and a "doctored up" scene I found a long time ago and saved because I thought it was so sweet. Luckily it is red, brown and turquoise.

Christmas Card
I have already started some Christmas cards as I vowed I would not arrive at the last minute and have to rush to make some.
I was having problems with this bird stamp as it never seemed to ink up completely, but inking it with Promarkers seems to work fine.
materials used: Pefect coloring paper; old green cardstock from stash ; Inkadinado stamp; Promarkers; ribbon from dollar store

RispondiEliminaCrystal Light is a low-calorie powdered drink mix. My husband is diabetic and this gives him something 'fun' to drink. It comes in a lot of flavors so he doesn't get bored with it. The container is a hard plastic with lid. Love those containers.
Thanks for stopping by my blog. I hope this answered your question.
Hi Kelly,
EliminaThank you. I will see who in my family back home uses it and see if they will send me some of those neat containers.
By the way, i loved your blog...the pic of the newborn piglets is adorable. i used to have a small farm, too and miss it so much.
