City Crafter Challenge Blog Week #342 ~ Christmas Thing that Float or Fly.

Thanks for all your kind comments on my previous post about the trouble at school, this morning, we gave two boxes of home baked cookies and gift cards to the workers who came pick up the garbage twice a week without fail, one of the guy who was picking up the garbage bag said to DH when DH pass him the gifts, he said "Let me get my work done first before I deserved the gifts". That really touches our heart, DH said that it was how he was taught when he was little, that you do your work before you get rewarded, what happened to our kids these days, just look at the case I posted yesterday about Moli and her mom getting their way just because she didn't get a sticker from me for not doing her home assignment, seriously, when we have doubt why kids behave the way they are, just look at the adults!

Alright, now to the post for City Crafter Challenge Blog, this is our last one for the year 2016, and the theme is Christmas Thing that Float or Fly, check out challenge details HERE!

it is not surprise that Santa sleigh is first thing that pop up when I think of Christmas thing that flies.

this is a old PTI mini stamp, and the only Christmas thing that flies in my collection I guess.

hope you come play along with us this week at...

PTI Create Along with Us (November 2016)

Brrrr...... it is getting really cold here today, the crazy wind last night destroyed lots of stuff in our backyard, and today is super cold, oh well, it is in the 50s but we are in Vegas, this should not be the case! : (

My card today is for the challenge:

PTI Create Along With Us (November 2016)

I was inspired by the lovely creation by Amy Sheffer

See Amy's original post HERE!

I love the white embossing over solid color cardstock.....

the flower is a set from PTI called Lace Bouguet, I used PTI cover plate pretty frame die on this card too... 

the sentiment is PTI Mini Blooms Stamp Set...

 I was going to make a few just like Amy, but I really didn't like my own, so I decided to stop at one : (

PTI Make it Monday #267 ~ Assembly Line Card-Making

The Challenge:

PTI Make it Monday #267 ~ Assembly Line Card-Making

This time of the year, I really like making multiple holiday cards instead of one, so the challenge at PTI Make it Monday is perfect for me.

My first step is to cut 6 of these PTI Tag Sale Quilted Die using kraft cardstock

 
 and then stamp the star (PTI layered postmark holiday) on it with clear ink and then embossed with white embossing powder.
The tiny red heart is a die from PTI Bubble Talk Die.

and the last step is to glue the tag on red cardstock...

and green cardstock....

and kraft cardstock too.....

I think my favorite is the kraft one, what about you?

Thankful for YOU at MFT

The Challenge:

Thankful for YOU at My Favorite Things

There's a special challenge at MFT, create a Thank You card for someone, here's my card for a student's grandma, who often order handmade cards from me.

I bought this MFT stamp and die sometime ago and finally get to use it today....

the background is another of my favorite MFT die.....

 I would also like to say THANK YOU to all my blog friends, who frequently visit my blog and leave sweet comments, THANK YOU all!

PTI October Blog Hop 2016

I nearly forgot to post this until I saw my friend Greta's when I hop around this morning. Thanks Greta for reminding! : )

The Challenge:

PTI October 2016 Blog Hop Challenge

Here's the inspiration photo....

 

First thing I picked up from this photo is the music score, so I used it for my background.....

 and then the orange leaves and fall theme just come naturally.....

 PTI products used here are the frame, two different leaf dies, the flower die to make my book print flowers, also the banner die stamped with sentiment from PTI Painted petals stamp set.

Ok, I am rushing to get breakfast.... bye!
