Set of Holiday Snowman Gift Tags Joy Happy Love

Here is a set of holiday tags with the snowmen on kraft color paper.

I love how the colors pop this way.

Sentiment:  Joy Happy Love

My favorite thing about this snowman is the hair.  How FUN.

We don't get to play in the snow here in Florida, but we do make sand snowmen.  haha

Here is a quick video tutorial for these cute Christmas snowman tags:

Watercolor Daisies Miss You Handmade Card

Today, I am up on the Unity blog with this daisy card.

Sentiment:  I miss you a little too much, a little too often & a little more every day.

Watercolor was used to color in the daisies.  I trimmed the card using lace, lacey die-cuts and patterned paper.  I wanted it to have a warm country look.

Here is a quick tip video tutorial for this daisy card.

Sentiment:  Congrats on the cute new poop machine.

This one is funny but so cute and light hearted.  I made one similar a while back with a girl theme.  I just switched out the colors and papers.  It makes a great shower or baby card,

Bible Journal Girl ~ Today is a Gift

** For the Unity blog hop post, scroll down or click HERE. **

** For the CardMaker / Craftin Desert Divas blog hop post, scroll down or click HERE. **

Today, I am sharing another bible journal page.

Sentiment:  Today is a gift.

For this page, I combined stamping, coloring and rub-on embellishments.

For the girl, I used Copic markers and fine liner pens on trimmed cardstock.  When I color with Copics, I always do so on a separate paper piece because of the bleed through of the ink.

I do this with stamping sometimes too, depending on the ink used.

I used a sheet of decorative rub-on embellishments that easily added a pretty background for this planner girl and sentiment.

I documented different techniques while experimenting with decorating on the thin bible pages.

Here is a quick tip video of this planner girl page.
