CRICUT
Happily Ever After
Owl cut @ 4 inches.


I cut this owl Once on shadow, twice in the red with the pink dots, once on layer in the more patterned paper.. and once in black so I could cut out his eyes.... I attached the first red layer to the brown shadow layer... those are popped dotted off the background.... then the second red layer is where I attached the black of the eyes...and that layer is popped dotted from the first red layer...then the final layer, the more patterned paper is popdotted off the top red layer...

The words on the plaque are computer generated...and I used a corner punch on both of those rectangles...the plaque is popdotted from the background layer.

Mr Snowman

Oh I had fun making this card... I have thought a hundred times how would you use that huge snowman face...well here it is... I cut him out twice in white...twice in black in shadow blackout... I cut the layers out 4 times in black.... twice in orange.... he is popped twice from the background...the hat is popped...then the rim of the hat is popped again...the carrot is attached directly to the top layer..then popped on top of that... Merry Christmas is handwritten and the tag it is on is also popped once... I know I know I have gone pop dot crazy...but I am having so much fun.... he glows because I did a layer of clear embossing on the top white layer of Mr Snowman.... the gold on his hat is Stickles... ~~Jeannie

Come Home for Christmas

I sold this card on EBay!
I had the hardest time getting a good picture of this card... I started this before work this morning and thought about it the whole time I was there... had to come home and finish it before I could rest... I was just so excited about it... the pictures just don't do it Justice... and that's after taking about 15 pictures and only one turning out at all... thanks for looking...~~Jeannie
CRICUT
Joys of the Season
House cut at 5 inches real dial size.
I cut the house out 1 time in the house paper, 1time in the roof paper, 2 times in the tree paper and 3 times in the white paper..the red of the chimney is popped once as is the roof...and the hand-cut bird... the trees are popped twice..that makes 3 layers of trees...the first layer is the house layer.... I place yellow paper behind the windows and added liquid glass to the front.,,, because I cut the house on real dial size I had to make all my cuts from the actual house cut...the layers wouldn't work.... the top layer of snow has that sugar glitter.

I sold this card on EBay

K&Company Wild Saffron Designer Paper
I hand cut the flowers from the paper and added lots of hand doodling and machine stitching.








Merry Christmas to All

I sold this card on EBay I am really enjoying this stitching so much... it adds a lot to a card that has busy paper and you don't need to add "too much" or you will get a really cluttered mess.... so this stitching is perfect for that busy paper that I have so much trouble with... I hope you like this one...thank you everyone for being so supportive of my new endeavor..it means so much to me! ~~Jeannie
