For my projects  today I did a card and a "One Sheet Wonder Bag".

I used SU cardstock, embossed the top layer, added, cork sheet behind the image, burlap and twine.  I die cut some photo holders and attatched with brads.  The image was colored with Copics.  I added some of hubby's flies for accents.
 
Here is my bag.
I watercolored the images and cut the fish and pole out.  I used some burlap behind the image and added some wood buttons.  The top is trimmed with some burlap woven trim and the handles are SU felt trim ( from a few years ago). I stuffed the bag with scraps of burlap and plan to add fishing things for my SIL for his Birthday.   The paper is from my stash.
 
Well thats it for today...Be sure to stop by all the design team gals, you don't want to miss all the wonderful creations they have for you today with this great stamp set.

For my card today I decided to do something not related to Christmas.  In fact it is kind of a Vintage Spring card.  I love how you can use the background stamp on designer paper and it just adds that nice touch to it.  I have had so much fun playing around with this set, I hope you will too.
I used paper by Authentique, ink from SU, stick pin from Tim Holtz, lace from my stash, border punch from EK success.  I stamped the butterfly twice and cut the wings and added to the top for dimension.  I took a piece of muslin and stamped the background and added it under the lace bow.
I hope you will continue on your way to Pats Blog and leave her some love.  Be sure to stop by tomorrow for another day of cards and projects from all of our design team.
Hugs

I have two cards to show today.
 I used the beautiful lantern image for my first card.
 
For my second card I did this pretty Poinsettia Image. 
Both cards were colored with Copics.  The added details were done with a variety of dies from different companies.  On my second card I cut the Poinsettia image apart and used my stylus to work the layers.  They were glued randomly on top of each other.
Well thats it for today.  Please join us again tomorrow for some more wonderful projects from the team.
Lots of Hugs,
Jane

I am so excited to bring you the newest releases from Mark's Finest. They are super cute and just in time to get a head start on the holidays and many other celebrations. Today we are showcasing
this sweet set "Christmas Selections". What a great set of small images to add to tags, cards, gift cards, and so many other ideas!
I created a set of gift cards for my first project. I used the two large Snowmen and large Santa. I punch out two layers, the one with red cardstock with a plain oval punch.The top layer was cut with a scolloped  punch and stamped on white cardstock and colored  with Copics.  The Christmas papers are new this year from "Simple Stories".  I added some green twine and a cute little cookie cutter to finish them off.
 
I have this other card to add today!  I am having such a hard time with blogger that I couldn't add it yesteday when I posted this.  So here is my ornament card with this cute small fun set.
 
 I hope you will all join in the fun and hop along with us this week.  The talented design team has so much in store for you.  You won't want to miss a thing!!!  So lets get HOPPING!!!
Many Big Hugs,
Jane
