I generally try to make Christmas presents each year.  This year I was on a wreath kick.  Here's some of the wreaths I made.  One of the recipients requested a Halloween themed wreath.





I made a number of the ribbon wreaths in a variety of color combinations.  This is the one I made for myself.

Whoo-hoo!  Squeezing in one last card under the wire.  This one is for Corinne's Box of Inspiration Challenge.  For this one I used My Minds Eye paper, Tim Holtz Distress Ink and a random ribbon.
I was able to knock out a couple cards for two more We Scrap Bring in the New Crop Challenges before the 11:59 EST deadline tonight.



The first one is for Amy's Color Combo challenge.  I used Basic Grey, Echo Park, and My Minds Eye scraps along w/Tim Holtz distress ink and AC markers.








Sarah's 'Something' Challenge - Something: old, new, borrowed, blue.  My somethings are:  an old card I'd embossed and never used a few years ago, a new snowman a friend gave me, I borrowed my DD's pens to give him eyes and finally blue ribbon and card.  I have no idea what products were used. 
My Darling lovely Angel was made for Lisa's Challenge #1- One Old, One New.  My DD was first in a church Nativity performance in 1998 as a cherub.  Her most recent role in 2010 was once again as an angel.  This time she got to 'herd' the cherubs on and off stage and serve as THE angel sharing the good news with the shepherds while on stage.  For this LO I used My Minds Eye Lost & Found papers, white & pink Stickles, Making Memories brads and shimmer alphas.
Using My Minds' Eye Quite Contrary Jack & Jill line along w/flowers from My Minds Eye Lush line & Die Cuts with a View cardstock, I made this LO for Victoria's Scraplift Challenge.  My DD was SO PROUD to have dressed herself.  Why she put her bathing suit on is beyond me.  I just love that she put it on backwards.
