Holiday Cheer
I recently saw this card, and just love the saying--so I had to give it a try. Below you can see that I how I lined up my letter stickers and how I added the glitter to them. I used a empty ziplock bag to line the stickers up over the top of where I wanted them. Then just add some glue and glitter. Lastly I used the piercing tool to pick them up and stick them to the card. All of the text (besides cheer) was printed on my computer with CTMH font.

Inspiring Owl & Live show preview
On a recent trip to World Market I found this cute owl note pad-it was the inspiration for my set of cards and holder. The holder is made from a folded lunch sack, and then the sides are sewn with the sewing machine. Check out the picture below of the owl eyes-I used a round sparkle and liquid glass. They are so shinny!
This is my project using the color combos from Jeanette Lynton's challenge. Be sure to check out what she made.

One of my CTMH team downline had some big accomplishments last month, and I wanted to make her something special. I created this mini spiral notebook and beaded pen for her to use.

Christmas Drink Caddy
This past weekend I did a Holiday Open House, I really wanted to focus on easy Christmas gifts. I used my technique from the Thanksgiving Caddy Video to re-create in a Christmas theme. This time around I found some red pomegranate soda and covered the label to match the the box and the theme.
