Hello Sweet Sassy Diva followers and a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you.  This week the challenge is "Let it Snow".  I tell you when I see all the beautiful pictures of snow my fellow crafters post I am a little jealous but I think I will stick with my Southern California weather.  That doesn't mean I don't love to pretend and make layouts of snow, snowflakes,  and snowmen.  

This is a fairly simple double page layout where I highlighted the paper which I had been saving from last year.  I loved the light blue with a touch of green and white snowflakes.  

Recipe:

Art Philosophy 

Snowflakes cut at 3" white glitter paper page 22, 27 and 30 

Winter Woodland

Peace cut at 3 "- page 64 white glitter paper and green Bazzil

flowers on Peace cut at 2 " page 64 green and lt. blue Bazzil

Rabbit page 58 cut at 3"  green and lt. blue Bazzil

Deer page 55 flipped and cut at 6 '' lt. blue and green

Mats 

White inner mat cut from Recollections pre-embossed core paper and sanded

2 cut at 4 x 6, 1 cut at 4 x 5, 1 cut at 3 1/2 x 4 1/2

Cut blue mats 1/2 inch bigger all sides and punches corners with EK sucess corner punch

Green mats cut 1/4 " bigger than blue

I added some tiny gems to the flowers and Smooch ink 

to leaves and eyes on deer and rabbit.  

Hope you enjoyed the layout. Please come back all week to see what all the designers have made.  

 Wishing you all Happy Holidays and Happy Craftin

Copics

Well, I've been considering a copics marker purchase. I would love to hear what you consider your top 10 colors.

Here are the few that I am considering to start out.





These are 10 that I was considering for hair and skin tones.

A New Way of Things!

A few weeks ago I had my 'pay-day' for a large headwrap order and I just couldnt wait to get to JoAnns and add some new fun stuff to my craftiness. I bought myself a new heat gun, clear embossing powder, embossing stamp pad, Tim Holtz Alcohol inks and the ink applicator. I was so excited to use them but nervous at the same time. I was afraid that what I wanted to do and create I couldnt because I wouldnt know how or mess it up somehow. So they sat, unopened for almost a week. I broke out the alcohol ink for last weeks project and for this weeks I opened up the embosing stuff. I must say I am in love with how it worked! Cant wait to use it again! I saw this design on Pinterest and had it in mind for an ornament for a Christmas party I am going to this weekend. But when I made it, it turned out much larger then I thought lol so I resorted to my plan 2 in the ornament department. The cear embossing powder on the paper After I heated it up with the heat gun I started to ink over it and wipe the ink off the embossed parts Cut out the petal shapes and ink the edges Cut out the same shap in brown and gel ink some faux stitching along the sides Glued them onto a 5 inch circle

Folded the petals and stapled the bottom

Glued them down on top of the brown petals

Then added my embelishments. I love this and how the ghost embossing turned out. Cant wait to hang it! Here is the original post on this idea....

NEW Items added!

There's a new site that I told you about earlier this month for discounts on scrappy supplies.  It changes three times a week and the specials last a week unless oh wait!  If it gets blitsed, it is gone so quickly if there is more demand than supply.  oh the stress! 

So the new site is Blitsy and you can access it by clicking here! you can let them know that I sent you just by clicking the link plus it allows you to become a member as well.  Membership is free and no obligation to buy.  I think you'll love the savings like I did so, I thought that I'd let you know too. I mean it's a savings big time on so many items that we know and love already! On top of it! Blitsy is offering a chance for you to win a $200 Blitsy credit for you and I each! wow!  That sure would bring some Holiday Cheer!

Plus, I just heard that if you enter "facebook" in the discount code of your order you will get 10% off but, I am not sure how long this special lasts. Amazing deals! I must say that you should hurry if you want the tim holtz inks and single pads efore they're sold out or end.  The sale has been going on for a few days and I don't want you to lose out of a great deal!  Can you believe it also has some of his other items too!

I couldn't believe how quickly they shipped too! I received my second order yesterday and I was so surprised! I am still waiting for other companies to ship me my orders that I placed from way back to black friday still.  Um, not Blitsy! It arrived so fast! 

They added some more items and some are still in there expiring today! I think I am going to keep my postman in the black! 

And you know it never seems like those Tim Holtz items go on sale. Be sure to grab them before they're blitzed!
