How about some elf treats!

Happy Friday. It's my design  day over at SVG Cutting Files and I get to reveal a couple new files released just today, Elf Toppers.

These elf toppers are sized perfectly to fit the clear gusset bags from Jaded Blossom but will work with any treat bag. 

This one is so cute with all the jingle bells. I think of the color of an elf outfit or the top of his boat.

 I used some stamps from the Jaded Blossom Merry and Bright stamp set to embellish it a bit. 

Here is the second file. Clearly an elf or Santa hat.

 Again, I used the same stamp set for the sentiment on this bag. 

I filled both treat bags with a mix of popcorn, pretzels, Crispex cereal and candies all coated in white chocolate with a dash of colored sprinkles.

Hope I inspired you to make some elf treats. 

Have a crafty day!

Snow Wonderful!

Hey everyone, it's my design day over at Digi My World and I have a little card to celebrate all the snow so many of us are seeing this week. 

 The cute digi I used is called Winter Blues. It is listed under the Winter category.

I actually used the clipart version of this digi stamp today. I am not always confident in my coloring skills nor do I have a ton of markers to make those wonderful color combos. But by using the clipart, it was all colored up nicely for me. 

I brought the image into the Silhouette software and did a quick trace followed by making a shadow layer before printing and cutting it. I actually was able to get 6 of these on a 12x12 sheet of paper.  

The card base is an svg file from SVG Cutting files.  Before cutting it, I added a little shape to the front so my treat would show through. I found the inspiration from a card Emma did over at My Creative Time a year ago. 

I embellished it with some twine and a sentiment from My Craft Spot. 

Have a crafty and snowy day!

You've Been Elfed!

Welcome back to another Die Cuttin' Diva's challenge. This week we have our monthly sketch challenge. Be sure to stop by the DCD blog to get the sketch and see the other DT inspiration projects. For my project I used an svg file from SVG Cutting Files called Little Elf. It paired perfectly with the sketch this week. 

I added the perfect little sentiment from the Jaded Blossom Merry & Bright stamp set. I also added some red gems in the corner. But here's my secret, they were not red when I bought them. I saw a tip from Mary at CardzTV where you can buy clear crystals and then color them with a sharpie marker. It works perfectly. So now, I just buy clear crystals and use the markers in my drawer for any color gem I need.
This card would be perfect for your secret Santa gifts.

Be sure to stop by the Die Cuttin' Diva's blog this week to see the wonderful DT inspiration projects. I cant wait to see what you link up.
