Canvas Corp Brands - Christmas Bulb Challenge!

Hello! Hope you all had a great weekend. We took it easy, did some crafting - of course - and watched some Christmas Classics. My favourite thing to do is snuggle up on the couch in the living room with the Christmas Tree on. I have to remind myself to just sit and relax sometimes! Since we're in the festive spirit, I definitely wanted to share a tutorial I have over at the Canvas Corp Brands Blog where I'm creating three Christmas ornaments for this month's Christmas Bulb challenge. I'm using beautiful pre-printed canvas in the Canvas Corp Jolly Christmas Mix & Match Pad from the Canvas Corp Brands Shop. These are quick and easy to stitch up for your own tree or as a gift set.


Here's inspiration for our challenge! We'd love for you to join us. You can link up HERE. Just use at least one product from Canvas Corp, 7gypsies or Tattered Angels!

Thanks so much for stopping by! Be sure to check out the Step by Step tutorial, closeup photos and a supply list on the Canvas Corp Brands Blog. Have an awesome week friends!

Southern Ridge Trading Company - A Frosty & Fun Layout!

Hello! I hope you all had a fantastic weekend! We got our tree decorated and put up lots of fun Christmasy decor in the house and spent Sunday making Christmas Cards with some friends - so we are definitely in the spirit! Today, I'm over on the Southern Ridge Trading Company blog with a lovely winter layout using a photo of the girls and their sleds on one of our first snow days in Alberta, which was quite early - in October. While the adults were all grumbling a bit, the kids thought it was fantastic and spent their time after school sledding down the nearby hills! I used some beautiful chipboard and wood veneer embellishments from the SRTC Shop to add to the snowy, sledding theme and had so much fun creating!

Canvas Corp Brands - Christmas Blog Hop!

Hello friends! I am so excited to be participating in the Canvas Corp Brands Christmas Blog Hop today!! If you aren't familiar with Canvas Corp Brands, this wonderful company owns Canvas Corp, Tattered Angels and 7gypsies - three amazing companies themselves with beautiful, well made and trending products.  There is such an awesome assortment of goodies in the CCB Shop you'll have no problem choosing just the right products for your own projects! Today, I'm sharing a lovely Christmas Apron, and I can't wait to show you. 🎄 I started off by using one of the pre-sewn Canvas Corp canvas aprons. They are a great sturdy material and perfect to customize for any holiday or some special person on your Christmas Gift List!


I gathered a piece of the pretty blue ticking fringe and sewed it along the top of the apron.


I grabbed a pre-sewn canvas flower and sprayed it with Rose Gold Glimmer Mist and then added a cute reindeer button. I attached it to the apron with a safety pin so I could remove it if I needed to.


The Tattered Angels High Impact Paints were perfect to paint in the cute reindeer from an iron on transfer I found at Michaels. It looks so vintage and they remind me of the transfers I used to paint on as a kid!


Canvas Corp Brands Supplies:
Tattered Angels High Impact Paint: Kraft, Green, Rose Gold, Light Blue, White

Here's a list of all the blogs sharing amazing Christmas projects to inspire your holiday decorating and gift giving:

Kitty Bee Designs #132 - All Wrapped Up!

Hi Friends! I hope you've been having a lovely week so far! I've had lots of fun creating projects lately and here's one more for you!  It's time for the midweek inspiration for Challenge #132 over at the Kitty Bee Designs Challenge Blog - Aloha Friday!

Challenge #132
All Wrapped Up


Super big thanks to our sponsor for this challenge:


Kinda Cute by Patricia - http://kindacutebypatricia.com/
 
and 

Di's Digi Stamps - https://www.disdigistamps.com/

For this challenge I decided to create a cute Christmas card using the adorable Snowman and Friends Digital Stamp from Kinda Cute by Patricia.  He looks so happy surrounded by his little animal friends! I coloured the image with an assortment of Copics, Prismacolor and Hobby Colour Markers to match the Heartfelt Creations Paper Pad I've been using lately! I just love the pinks and teals for a little change up to the regular holiday colour scheme. 


I used a stitched square die to cut out the image and then layered it on top of the papers, ribbon, and an embossed piece of matching teal cardstock. Some Stickles and SpiegelMom Scraps sequins  add just a little extra bling for Christmas Cheer! (PS be sure to use the code KARLA15 to save 15% at the SMS Shop!)
