DT PROJECTS

here are the first of my RJR projects in full living colour.

this is a KaiserCraft Christmas Countdown Tree.
jenny has them in the shop.
i covered it in the delicious BasicGrey Figgy Pudding PPs.
just delicious and double-sided to boot.
i have a love/hate relationship with double-sided PPs....i love using them but hate that one side has to be forsaken.

this is a close up of the star on top of my tree - i covered it in this gorgeous handmade gold paper i have that was given to me many years ago.
the jewels are Kaiser Bling available from jenny too.
the ribbon you can get here.
i curled the ribbon using ribbon stiff and twisting the ribbon around a pencil until it dried.
i love that it looks like candy canes.

these are the cards i made using more beautiful RJR ribbons, bling and the amazing Kaiser laser cut embellies. also lots of buttons, some stickers and rub-ons.
i just love the way they turned out and i have earmarked them to give to some certain special people.
i think the PPs are Bo Bunny Press.
very christmasy anyways.

i have a few more projects to share once they are finished - soon jen *grin*
pop over to the RJR blog to see what all the other DT girls have done - AMAZING !!!

i hope everyone is having a great weekend so far.
kait has been out partying all day with my dad and step-mum so we will be putting our tree up tomorrow.
and i also have HEAPS of christmas scrapping to do + cards to write in + taking christmas pics of the kids - i already have some simply GORGEOUS ones of matt, taken today when he was all dressed up to head out to the local race day.
it certainly is a busy time of the year.

remember to look for the things in your life that make you smile
~~ and let those you love, know that you do ~~

HAPPY THOUGHT FOR TODAY
the love of family and friends.
no matter how hopeless things can seem at ttimes, sometimes all you have to do is reach out and ask for a helping hand or a friendly ear.
