Joyeux Noel

Hello Everyone
Recently I shared glass ornaments where I used the word joy from the Christmas Greetings Plate. Well, as there is such an abundance of words and sentiments I continued to make more glass ornaments to send as Christmas gifts to friends. This time I used the sentiment Joyeux Noel

The December challenge, A Handmade Holiday is now well underway so we would love to see your art entered at the challenge site (see link on sidebar).  There is a prize of $21 to spend at The Stampsmith on-line store so well worth entering.

We Wish You a Merry Christmas

Hi Smithies!
Hope everyone is getting their Christmas cards done.  I have a great card today that goes together quickly and would be perfect for making in multiples.  I have used the stamped called "Banjo Singers" from The Stampsmith.   I paired this great photo stamp with a pretty DP and it went together in a snap.

For more info, photos, and to say Hi, pop over to my blog, Dreaming and Creating.   Enjoy making your holiday cards!

A Handful Of Joy

Hello Everyone
For the December challenge, A Handmade Holiday my DT samples are some Christmas glass ornaments.  I have been making a variety of glass ornaments this year and found the Christmas Greetings stamp plate to be  a useful source for words/sentiments.

You have until the end of this month to share your Handmade Holiday art with us.  Details can be found at TSC (see sidebar).
Between now and the 25th of December I hope to share with you, some more of the glass ornaments I have been making for friends using more words from the Christmas Greetings stamp plate.
