I really needed to create today.... it was a must... but I couldn't really concentrate... still have all the funeral things to do... but this doll reminded me of my MawMaw... so I decided even though this was a pretty simple card that I would do it in honor of her... Thank you for all the prayers...and for looking at my card. Hugs, Jeannie

Christmas Solutions

Doll cut @ w 2.42 x 2.50.

I cut her 6 times so I could paper piece her..and she doesn't come in layers... there are two cuts in yellow for the layers of hair... 2 cuts in red for the dress and bow.... one in off white for the skin...and once in brown for the belt and the shoes... some of her peices are pop-dotted and some are just layered one on top of the other.

Storybook

Frames cut @ w 3.0 x h 2.0 and 3.25 x h 2.26.

I just duplicated the smaller one and tapped the enlarge button 3 times.

All other cuts are made with my paper trimmer.

Lots of brown in and chalk.Below is how my Gypsy screen looked just before I printed...I did delete my notes at the bottom left.... the square in the middles is saved and opened as a template so I can lay my images out in it for sizing... it is the size of an A2 card and does not print when opened as a template.

I have had lots of positive feedback from these shots...but a negative one or two comments also... so if they are helpful to you please let me know and I will keep posting them.

Please say prayers for my family.

My 96 year old grandmother died this weekend.... it has been really sad.... I have an out of state aunt ... and cousins... so the funeral isn't until later in the week... I think that is making all this much harder... life is in limbo ... waiting to even feel like all of this is even real...

When I was a little girl she would let me help her make home made biscuits...that is when I learned to love biscuit dough.... and she would tell me the most wonderful stories... and she told me Bible stories about all the pictures in her huge Bible .... and she always sang me those sad old story songs.... I loved those songs...I think they are why that today I still love a sad song.

Please keep us in your prayers .... my mother and aunt are really sick and I am worried about both of them getting through the next few days.

Hugs

Thank you so much for looking... hugs, Jeannie

Halloween Candy Cone

Designed by Jeannie Phillips, Southside, AL

Click on any picture to enlarge. This week at The Cuttlebug Spot we were to make a candy container of some kind...I had to think on this one for a while...because as many of you know... cards are my thing!!...so this is outside my box for sure!!... but when I finished this I was just too excited... I used my Gypsy... and made the tag....I welded the cat and pumpkin to the tags to make a strong base and an outline when I added my other cuts... I am really proud of this one...really proud.... I am learning how to do new things every day with my Gypsy.... this is an amazing amazing tool!.... Hope you like my treat cone... love your comments!!!.... they make my day!! Be sure and check out what the other Design Team members at The Cuttle Bug Spot made this week!!.... Hugs, Jeannie

Tags cut @ w 2.75 x h 4.10 white tag and w 2.87 x 4.28 black tag both on shadow blackout.

Circles to make the holes for the tags cut @ h 0.27 x w 0.24.

Paper Doll Dress Up

Pumpkins cut @ w 2.68 x w 4.48..once in green once in orange...and welded once to the white tag.

Pumpkin welded to black tag is w 2.80 x 4.68.

Cat cut @ w 1.91 x h 3.28 this is the single cat and the cat welded to the white tag.

Cat welded to the black tag is w 2.0 x h 3.43.

The way I did the black tag was... I made the white tag..grouped all the items... click on the group and tapped on the enlarge button 3 times... if you do that you will not have to lay out the black tag...and all your sizes will be right. This is a picture of my Gypsy screen saved file...to cut all I did was delete my notes of the carts I used and the color I wanted one of the pumpkins.... I have found that my welded items are not cutting when my un-welded items cut...I delete the un-welded items then run my mat back through the Cricut and the welded items then cut fine...when the Gypsy prompts me to save changes I choose NO...then I still have my notes and all my cuts.

This is the cut file just before I printed it...I did delete the notes before I printed...I am still at the point having to delete everything that isn't grouped..then going back to cut the grouped items.

If you open your rectangle card base as a template it does not cut...but the picture stays on the mat so you can lay your card out and get everything the right size.

I saw this image painted on a piece of metal while we were in Gatlinburg....and I loved it.... so when we got back to the room I created it the best that I could on my Gypsy... I was so excited...then yesterday Jeannene gave me some paper from an old Christmas paper pack...and I knew what I was using the snowflake paper for...the background of this card... there are some differences from the painting...the Merry Christmas was all in an arch across the snowman instead of just the Christmas...but it worked out well for my card... then the other day someone posted a snowman card where she had used a snowflake in the belly of the snowman....I borrowed that idea for her...but can’t remember who...if you will let me know it was you I would love to give you credit!!...I hope that you can see it in the picture..I used axles to make Sickles highlights to the letters...this is a simple card...but effective I think...I hope you like it...thank you so much for looking!...
