It's Cold Outside Cards from Dreaming Tree

I totally love this set of cards from Dreaming Tree. 
 The cardstock is some plain colored cardstock I had in my stash. I didn't have White glitter cardstock so I sprayed adhesive on the trees and snowflakes on the Winter Woodland card and sprinkled white glitter on it. The glitter on the Peppy Penguin card hats I did by putting them through the Xryon (didn't have spray adhesive at the time) top facing the sticky, dipped them in glitter then put back through the Xyron with non-glitter side to the sticky. Presto! Glittered cardstock. The inking on the edges was done with my ebrush and Spectrum Noir markers.
I got my ebrush from Craftwell. Here is a link for the Amazon price: https://www.amazon.com/eBrush-Craftwell-Ebrush-Kit/dp/B00N9B4W9M . However, if you decide to get one, be sure to shop around. I didn't pay near this when I got mine. It was a while ago, though. I used Spectrum Noir markers for the ink. They work great in the ebrush.
I used foam dots the add dimension.
Years ago we all had the craze of having to use an embellishment we called"Skittles." They were little round plastic pieces. I think they were really just the filler that some people use to help flowers stand up in flower arrangments. I colored some red and purple and added them to the Christmas Village cascade card.
The Winter Woodland is designed to put a tea light in so it illuminates it. 
 Leo from Dreaming Tree recommends http://www.amazon.com/RGB-Submersible-LED-Lights-Centerpiece/dp/B00FS7N0J8/ref=pd_sim_60_3?ie=UTF8&refRID=1MBV20Z27012WFVS45VW&dpID=51eEJ9ihNtL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR160%2C160_ to light his projects up but you can use whatever battery-powered light you'd like.

 He also has YouTube videos to show you how to make his projects.

Let It Grow card with cascade card base and first attempt at using ebrush.


For this cute card I used my Cricut Explore Air and cutting files from two different sites. For the cute duck, water, rocks, and clouds a used the Let it Grow file for Kadoodlebug designs found here: http://kadoodlebugdesigns.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=55&products_id=1132 . I used plain cardstock I had on hand to make it. I attached text to one cloud and used crayon markers in my Explore pen holder to write the words.I shadded it with my ebrush from Craftwell. Here is a link for the Amazon price: https://www.amazon.com/eBrush-Craftwell-Ebrush-Kit/dp/B00N9B4W9M . However, if you decide to get one, be sure to shop around. I didn't pay near this when I got mine. It was a while ago though. I used Spetrum Noir markers for the ink. They work great in the ebrush.
The cascade card base is from Dreaming Tree: http://www.3dsvg.com/?affiliates_svg=27 . I only used the cascade part of the Dove Cascade Card in the Cascade Card Bundle. I simply hid the parts of the card that I didn't want to use.

Mother's Day and wedding gifts


This is a lovely Mother's day gift. It could be used for many things by just changing the colors. I used chalk inks to ink the petals of all the flowers. The MOM and some embellishments on the tray are metallic gold paper. The petals are held by pins in half 3 inch styrofoam balls. Each flower pot is a box and the lid is the top with the flower on it. The file is from Dreaming Tree I Love You Mom bundle.  http://www.3dsvg.com/?affiliates_svg=27(This is an affiliate link.

This is the Daisy Cascade card from Dreaming Tree. The blue is metallic blue. The ribbon is some wedding sentiment ribbon I had in my stash. The round embellishments are brads I had in my stash. We used it as a wedding card but if the colors were changed it could be anything. Her is the link:

This is a shadow box. The shadow box was bought at WalMart. The letters were cut out of vinyl using my Cricut Explore Air. The flower heart is rolled flowers grouped into a heart. It was a wedding gift. The bride and groom had a beach/Hawaii themed wedding reception.
