Little Red Wagon - Tag it!

Beautiful Christmas tags... I made these for a swap that a group of friend and I do every year!  Our wonderful host Martha (I mean Rosanne) always throws such an amazing event.

Anyway here is my tag, I hope everyone liked it! I know I love each and everyone I received.

I cut the mitten on the silhouette, embossed it, inked it, sewed on a burlap ruffle, added crocheted trim, layered on that is some jingle bells tied with rustic jute twine over a snippet of glittered wreath with some pins stuck in behind.  I created the Joy and cut it on my silhouette (so proud of myself). I added a punched snowflake and holly leaves and a little pearl! 

Make sure you head over to Little Red Wagon to play along!!

Little Red Wagon - Bows!

A twine-y BOW!

I been keeping busy with a few side projects.  I was shocked when the CEO of the company I work for asked my help with a project using the wedding photos of his parents.  They were about to celebrate their 50 year wedding anniversary...

I made this card... (sorry for the terrible photos, I took them on the fly)

And I had this created...

So fun to be a part of and I hear they loved it!
