Clean & Simple at Kaboodles!

It's that time again! A new challenge at Kaboodle Doodles has started today!
CLEAN AND SIMPLE CHRISTMAS.
So if you've got any last minute Christmas cards needing to be made, be sure to enter them into our challenge. Personally, I think this is my LAST holiday card of the year.


Our sponser this week is Robyn's Fetish. And I thank them for letting me use some of their images! I enjoyed myself.
For my card I used the angel digi. I love the way she's floating in the clouds!

I printed her out twice, then layered part of the image for added depth.

For these challenges -
Mami Doodles. ANYTHING GOES
Penny's challenges. MERRY CHRISTMAS
Tuesday Throwdown. CLEAN & SIMPLE
Thanks,

It Was Martha's Idea.

I saw this project on the Martha Stewart show and LOVED it!! I heard it's been shown on Oprah too, but I don't watch her. I'm planning to give this to my in-laws at Christmas. The photos spell out DEBIASI. Their (and mine) last name and were all taken in the summer at their cottage. Wish I'd had my new camera then, but c'est la vie. Really, if you leave your mind open, seeing letters in common items is pretty simple.

Let It Snow!

This is one of those rare cards that behaved and turned out like I expected.
Maybe because there isn't a lot going on, it has a more clean and tidy look. I started forming this card in my head a couple days ago, when we got our first significant snowfall. It's mostly gone now but it was really pretty while it lasted.

Christmas Ornaments.

I love my friends that appreciate homemade gifts. Some aren't happy unless it's store-bought but my good friend Jen will love these. Her and I always get together with the families at some point through the holidays and get each other a little something. We've been friends since Grade 6 and my only regret is that when we were kids I always made a fuss about everyone forgetting my birthday. (It's on Christmas Day.) Now that I'm getting old-ER, I prefer nobody to mention it, but every year she has cake and makes everybody sing Happy Birthday to me. I swear I'm putting a stop to it when I hit the big 4-0!!!!
I made these ornaments for her, her husband Rod, and her son Matthew. First time I've every tried ornaments, I hope you like them.





All boxed up.

Altered Candle Holder.

Super fast post tonight. I'm soooo tired.
This is a small gift I made for a client. A good way to say "Thank You"
I've never altered glass before. My intentions were to paint it. What a mess!
Instead I went with rub-ons.
For The Shabby Tea Room. CARD/PROJECT THAT IS NOT SQUARE. Outstanding DT work- as usual.





Thanks for looking,

Tag Crazy!!!

I LOVE making Christmas tags! I find I use more of them than actual cards, as they're handy for Hostess, not-so-close friend's etc... gifts.
So as our new challenge at Kaboodle Doodles is TAG - YOU'RE IT! I took it as an opportunity to make a bunch!!
Our sponser this week is the GREAT Robyn's Fetish and I LOVE their digi's! So many fun images to choose from that I couldn't pick just one!

So here is a bunch of tags I made..... and when you make one, please play along so I can come check them out!!

Little Boy Brag Book.

I made one of these for a baby girl a couple months ago. Now it's the boy's turn. I used the same technique as the previous brag book. Altered an old felt photo holder and added a ton of pages.






Sorry to bombard you with soooo many pics! I just REALLY love my new camera, and this book has quite a few different pages.
