Liz's Wreath

On Tuesday, one of my crafting ladies - Liz G - was inspired to make this card after seeing one of the convention swaps that I received. I can't give credit to the person who made this as it has no details on the back.  (If it's yours, please let me know and I will link this post to your blog)

Liz used some of my retired SU Christmas DSP and the Bird Builder punch 

(the wing was used) to make the beautiful wreath. 

A snowflake from Snowflake Soiree was used for the centre, stamped in Real Red ink.

The sentiment is from Tiny Tags stamp set, punched into a tag shape

using the Jewelry Punch.

A little 3/8" Real Red taffeta ribbon bow finishes it off.

Great job!

Jems' gifts

Another thing that we do at Convention is to exchange gifts with our team - Julie's Jems.

There are ten of us in all so I have made 9 gifts.

 Another rubbish photo - but the colour combo is Ivory and Early Espresso .

The card stock was cut using the Pillow Box die,

then run through the Elegant Lines Embossing Folder.

(You may just be able to see the embossing in the top picture)

I did computer generated sentiments and punched out with the Jewelry tag.

Finished off by fastening with a Ivory or Early Espresso ribbon.

If you would like to see what's inside - pop back tomorrow

when they have all received their gifts.
