Make A Joyful Noise

I want the "Flip-It Thinlit dies"(like the swing cards), but they cost over $30 not including tax and shipping.....sooooo....I spent the better part of the morning figuring out the measurements watching You Tube to come up with my own version.  I put so many extra layers that I had to hold the card to take the pic.

I used "Caroling Friends" by Doodle Pantry along with a sentiment that is also included in the set. Such a sweet image!

Another little winter scene

Another winter scene with the same darling image "Caroling Friends" from Doodle Pantry.  I used an svg window file I made last year, along with snow drippings and is in my set of windows for sale.  Left the image CAS on the front.

stickles, wavy crimper, pop-ups and rhinestone snowman (looks better in person)

It's Not Feeling Like Snow....but....

This creepy crud had me out!!! I finally feel like making a card and the strength to post...haha   My son away at college even had to be taken to the emergency room for all the sickness and coughing he had developed....road trip for me to take care of him.  He's back in dorm studying for exams and I'm home starting to feel human.  Anyhow.....

I bought this Cheery Lynn window b die a while back and started playing with it.  You know me and window files...lol  I added clear acetate sheet in the window area.  The first card (you are looking out) I used the adorable Doodle Pantry colored image called Caroling Friends.  The second card appears someone looking "in the window" at a Christmas scene....free image from TLC or free vintage blog.

Caroling with Friends

Doodle Pantry has some of the most adorable images...b/w and pre-colored, along with sentiments.  This one is called Caroling Friends.  I'm entering the card in the monthly Doodle Pantry Blog challenge and Joan's Garden's challenge.

I love the new Spellbinder D-Lites dies.  I made my own svg version using my Silhouette Studio software.  I removed the bar in center and added extra panels.  You will see some different versions of this die and card over the next few days with one being the Spellbinder window 2 die.

I also tore paper, used Stickles and pop-ups for a snow look with dimension.  I used a red copic on the music staff, and colored dots of liquid pearls for the holly berries.  Lastly, Cheery Lynn Holly Flourish die.

Also added stitching, acrylic circle, ribbon and embossing
